She is literally part of a hate movement.  She causes active harm to many people. It's not about opinions, it's about real world harm and she causes a lot of it with her TERF activism.

What active harm does she cause and how?

GOP senators quote her while arguing against trans rights:

She adovacates against human rights:

She is a part of a hate movement and actively recruits other people to her cause. She lies about science and biology to hate on trans people. Trans people's lives are made worse by her advocacy.

Hopefully not... I don't want any polotics my games. Left, right, up or down.


gtfo.

Hate to break it to you, but gaming is political. Has been for a long while. Bioshock, Halo, CoD, GTA, Disco Elysium, Red Dead, Spiderman, The arkham games, elden ring, and a lot a lot of other games. I guess the most apolitical games are usually games like the ones Nintendo makes. There is still some politics but pretty barebones. Art is political. It's just how well you make it. Hell some people make it in a way where people don't even realize it's political until they sit down and think about it.

Not supporting J.K. Rowling

The majority of scientists agree on the scientific basis of the existence of trans people and she rejects them. She also purposefully confuses sex and gender to obscure and strawman arguments. No transgender person or ally denies the biology of trans people. But she pretends like trans people are going around shouting at doctors and believe their sex organs suddenly change. Her line "sex is fact" or whatever is also meant as an obfuscation.

But it is interesting how you quickly move from point to point. You asked about harm she does and I pointed it out and you went to a different topic. 

I am now more interested in your views on trans people. Do you support the hateful message of JK  Rowling?

As excited as I am for the game, there is no denying JK Rowlings is transphobic.

>Before I can answer this question, we both need to nail down exactly what her message is.

I read what JK Rowling had to say in her own words and didn't find anything terribly objectionable.

What is your opinion on this from Rowling?



Game looks great, it's exactly what I was looking for and I can't wait to play in on PS5.

Let's not do that. This is for both of you.

You aren't even talking about the game at this point.

I will not push this further. Just wanted to point out some troublesome aspects of the game people should be careful about like JK Rowling getting royalties, weird gamergate person at the helm of the project and possible right wing nonsense in the game. I will leave it at that.
