Nexusmods are doing what they believe is the right thing to attain the highest profit, it's no more complex than that.
The people in charge voted on where the line in the sand should be (to simplify the corporate process somewhat) and homophobia, they decided, should be on the wrong side. They figure that inclusivity, rather than bigotry, is the way to more customers. (I mean, duh.)
They are entitled to do just that, as the modder is to mod the game how he sees fit.
It is not bigotry to be intolerant of the intolerant, that pathetic argument has been dead since before you were born.
It's fascinating watching how quickly my side has forgotten the state and corporate censorship of the 2000s. I don't enjoy defending rightoids but I remember being on the losing side and I'd rather be principled now than on the backfoot again when the pendulum swings back.
Truth and fairness take a back seat to profits. Got it.
It's not intolerant to offer an alternative game experience for those who might choose it. You're so lost in the juice that you're ok with doing things the wrong way so long as it supports your side.
My problem here is that the same mechanism that entities Nexus mods to do this is the one that lets Facebook give Trump a win. You're all blind to that though because you think this random guy is hurting gays or whatever with a game option that's not imposed on anyone.
You can't see the forest for the trees.

I see you are incapable of reading, so I'll just restate this to make it simple for you:

Modding a game to suit what you wanna play isn't intolerant. Making your way the only option is. Making it only be their way seems to be what Nexus mods is doing.
There's nothing stopping the modder hosting it somewhere that is tolerant or even supportive of their ignorant beliefs.
No-one is making any way be the only option.
Nexusmods isn't the only place it could be, just to state that again, in simple enough terms it might make a dent.
Once more, just to be sure; Nexusmods has no control over other file hosting services, ergo they cannot "make it their way". They can only choose what to have on their own site, nowhere else.
Did that penetrate your tin foil hat?
Also:

It is when it's stated aim is to erase the existence of a specific subset of individuals based on a protected characteristic.
It is, in fact, almost the very fucking definition of intolerance.
You're either completely ignorant and arguing for the sake of it, or you support, and are arguing for, sowing more of this kind of pointless culture wars shite.
(Which was created by the rich, solely to distract us all from the long overdue class war. Kill the fucking rich, not the other poor bastards in the same boat as you. 👍)
