    For context for any viewers who are wondering why @[email protected] deleted his posts, he was saying this:

    • that the Pride flag has no symbolic meaning, but is “just a flag”
    • that because the Pride Flag is not significant to @[email protected], it therefore has no meaning (which they repeated numerous times)
    • that the removal of a symbol does not symbolize the removal of the thing that symbol symbolizes
    • that gay people are given equal welcome in bars instead of being discriminated against
    • that any change without impact on the gameplay has no meaning
    • that censorship before the release of the game is not censorship and has no meaning

    If you were wondering why he has so many downvotes, that is why. :)

      There is wrong characterization here. I’m just fed up with the bad faith argumentation. Its just a waste of time. And its clear that people don’t accept any other opinion. Have fun with your witch hunt.

        Wrong characterization? I saw your bullshit before you deleted it and these things are literally what you said. God, you suck at your propaganda job

        This was not a witch hunt. I am merely providing the context of what you said because you are trying to skirt outside of public criticism by deleting your comments.

        You made a fallacious claim that the removal of the Pride Flag had no meaning. You literally said it was “just a flag”. You literally said the removal was meaningless because it had no significance to you. You literally said that the removal of that symbol does not symbolize the removal of LGBTQIA+ rights. You literally said that gay people are equally welcome in bars. You literally said that changes that don’t impact gameplay or story have no meaning. You literally said that censorship before the release of the game was “not censorship” and that it has no meaning.

        I have not misquoted you. If you feel like your own words paint you in a negative light, perhaps you shouldn’t have said them.

        Too bad you deleted your own words, otherwise you’d have an easier time convincing people.
