I think that was the reason I got banned from the main 40k sub. Calling someone's pride mini bad because the technique was "im gonna slap mud on the mini and farm karma with the trans flag colors" during pride month.

Truthfully, from what I have observed these past few weeks, the Deadlock community has the opposite problem most other valve games have.
Instead of being filled with racists euros who think dropping loud hard rs nwords on their own unprompted is funny
Its filled with tumblr esq queers who essentially brought unfunny done to death r/196 humor with them.
One is weird the other is just annoying
and me personally, I could never imagine hating my hobby just because a bunch of trans people made a shitty joke in the community Im in, thats just childish.

Only issue I have is almost every space that is safe for them becoming r/trans with a different reddit name, losing whatever the original theme of the group was.

I have mentioned that and people say that doesnt happen but for like 2 months r/terraria was litterally just both sides going at it about trans people with no relation to the game. Most posts that were transphobic were banned as they should but then you would go to check the sub to see things about the update or engage with the community and its just a bunch of posts about trans and half of them werent about terraria. Atleast at the end it started becoming trans version of characters and stuff like that so it was atleast related to the game but for 2 months it was genuinely just sad

I mean objectively speaking it is cringe, low quality content that was only supported because its centerpiece was a trans individual. Anyone doing self insert interactions with characters is cringe, no matter the circumstances. Add onto the fact that is just boils down Solomon to a chess guy when it’s shown he’s more than that (he would literally never say that shit), and it just shows that this wasn’t done to like examine characters or anything. It was using sock puppets and fake voices to tell them what they wanted to hear, and for internet points.

u/Blackjackal21 2d ago edited 2d ago
So what needs to be understood is that it is inherently political. It shouldn't be. It should just be ok to be lgbtq+. But some powerful people need powerful distractions to divide us. So they have weaponized our marginal differences in an attempt to do so. The reason you see a big focus on blindly supporting lgbtq+ in mainstream practice is twofold. Companies want to appeal to lowest common denominators in a shallow attempt at mass appeal. And counter culture individuals are tired shallow distractions. The end result is low or zero tolerance towards discussions meant to focus on distractions. Those distractions are a tool to manipulate and segregate you. This response is a bit "cringe", but the end goal(and the reason it feels conflated) is to unite people and disassemble the moot points of detractors with equal force. It will never be enough for puritans of any cause. There will always minutiae to quarrel over. Its better to just be open, accepting, and willing to ignore things that arent your cup of tea but are ultimately harmless so you can focus on real problems.
Edit: my bad. Been up for 23 hours and I misread the context of the screencaps. To answer your question. The lash probably wouldn't care one way or the other at a surface level. If his persona is genuine, he'd probably make a rude comment or joke. If his asshole persona is just that, a persona. He'd probably support you.
