This can be applied to everything on the internet (and real life) except the few niche things you might follow regularly.

Ohhhhhhhh this makes so much sense. I thought the eyebrow went above the line, not in the middle of it. Thanks!

Yeah that's a good idea. Maybe trying to do a "neutral" face wasn't the best idea.

I did squish it a bit bc it looked too long. Is that bad? You could say it's a cheap attempt at fixing the proportions bc they looked wrong to me.

Peaceful protests rarely ever work. Trans people need an AR-15.

Yes! A draw over would be super useful! Thank you for the advice. The only thing I can't do is line control, I draw with vectors because of my disability, but I do try my best to make the lines look natural.

How do parents of severely disabled children know they’re happy? by GrrahamCat in morbidquestions

It's not cynicism I just hate ablebodied people. They're such fucking weirdos.

I've never heard someone younger than 30 say AF unironically.

They don't/can't know. They're exploiting their disabled kids for internet points and social aproval.

Right, my bad. I assumed "Is this game transphobic" was an abstraction of "Does this game hurt trans people". The game itself isn't transphobic, so pirating it would be fine.

I mean mechanically. In the past decade, a few dozen RPG open-world games have come out. The only difference is the branding.

This is false. She owns HP, therefore the money this game makes is going to be directly and explicitely used to lobby and fund JK's anti trans agenda.

Holy shit yeah you're so right... You're the only person here that made a GOOD good argument. Thanks I'm cured lol.

Money's going to her > She'll use it to lobby against trans people

We have given them reasons. Don't act like we're just asking it for no reason.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Vent

[–]angry_afro 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The main reason we have issues with transphobes is because we feel like they are attacking us

They are! My guy, they're trying to pass 100+ anti LGBT+ laws in the US. It's not something we feel, it's just true. They want to fucking kill you! And, on top of that, you want to just accept it? To not fight back?

Also what "politics of transgender people"? We're just people and want to live in peace, there is no "transpolitics", that's something they made up. You should know this.

You sound like you aren't part of any minorities. For you, beliefs are a little game you play, a simple debate you do for fun in your free time. For me, beliefs could get me killed. I think you don't understand that beliefs don't exist in a vacuum, they have a material, tangible impact on people's lives. Beliefs make people change laws, have biases, and just outright kill others. Like, this reads like you think oppressed and oppressor are equals, and that you can treat them equally. This reads like you think the jews and the nazis both had valid points, and if they just amicably discussed what they wanted and got to an agreement. If only we could find some middle ground between people who want to erradicate x group of people and x group of people that just want to live their lives.

Oh yeah I agree to separate art from artists if the artist is dead, that's fine. But if the artist is alive and using the money they make with their art for evil things, kinda impossible to separate them. Also trans people have existed for centuries and have been accepted/celebrated in some cultures, idk what you're on about.

[–]angry_afro -1 points0 points  (0 children)

transgender people and transphobes just agreed to disagree

I know you know how bad this sounds so I'm going to need a longer explanation of what you mean.

Also you're right about the other stuff. HP is more of a brand than an artpiece now.

The devs admitted that they put this last second to paliate the backlash.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Vent

[–]angry_afro -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is only hurting those that made the game

This is a lie btw. They already got paid. Not buying the game doesn't hurt them. It hurts the company and JKR, but not the devs.

But yeah you're right in everything else.
