It's genuinely amazing to me how some people are obsessed with the idea that buying a videogame based on the works of an author that wasn't even involved in making the project makes you transphobic.

Would it shock you that 99% of corporate officials are bad people? I guess we should stop buying anything ever because some percentage of money can go to people I don't like.

She's literally said that people buying her shit proves she's right.

I'm sorry people have some more morals with their money and have trouble giving it to people who have made it their entire focus to shit on them and be called rapists and groomers by their former childhood heroes.

Your morals are fine, what isn't fine is that most of the people boycotting the game are harassing people that buy it.

So what? Why is everyone giving some dumbass writer that hasn't been relevant in 10 years so much attention? Who cares what she says? Tons of people say terrible, stupid things on the internet. Sorry I'm not joining your crusade to call everyone that wants to enjoy a video game a bigot.

They may not be bigots themselves but they happily give their money to a person well known for being bigoted that also actively tries to make the world a worse place for trans people. It is like buying a burzum album; you don't have to be a nazi to do it but the nazi still profits.
