that's my point! you pointed out his contradicting statements as base of your argument, yet you went on and gave three scenario for EA's statement and how it could have been perceived and then went on to contradict yourself by saying "Sad thing is, the comments given by the developers and EA are just as dumb as what the fanbase have stated. Really, there is no defending a company as shitty as EA or a developer as lolbad as DICE."

So what makes Flashfire argument and contradiction invalid and yours valid?

Pardon me, but unless you simply need to rephrase your point, that's not a contradiction? It could be that I am just failing to understand, and if so I truly apologize, however what I am getting from your comment is that you believe I am contradicting myself by saying that EA and DICE's statements are dumb after criticizing Flashfire for making a comment that was a wrongful "interpretation" or exaggeration for the sake of criticism of said statement? 

Uhm ... if that is what you believe, that isn't a contradiction. You can believe a statement is dumb but then still say how people misconstrue it is also dumb. In this example if Flashfire said that the statement was wrong regarding women serving in certain territories, and it was factually correct, then nothing would be wrong with the statement. But he added onto it (and I believe purposefully to be disingenuous and exaggerate an already very large point) as if the statement was talking about prosthetic or cricket bats, which it wasn't. And even if he was talking about the full quote, by the end of the quote the developer exclaims it's a "game" which is obviously a way of saying that leniency is needed. So yeah, what is the contradiction? 

what I am trying to say is if you believe comment made by EA is dumb and stupid, there was no need for you to break down flash fire comment as if he is exaggerating the situation as something of a propaganda against women in game, coz in my understanding of his post, I can say people are upset on many things about battlefield 5 which includes the portrayal of the women in the game, but EA choose to spin it into a PR about gamer's being misogynist and wanted to wipe some bad PR about BF2 while emerging as some sort of flag bearer of women in game! but it backed fired, but some people were still lead to believe that this was gender issue.
