Why care about what a writer has to say about gender politics? I don't. I don't even know what she said specifically because it means nothing.
Because she's actively using her money to make trans people's lives worse, and she's influencing people by spreading her hateful views. It absolutely doesn't mean nothing - she's literally lobbying with the money you gave her!
Ok, but I mentioned this above, it's literally impossible to live in society and not have your money funneling into a billionaire's pockets who's lobbying against your best interest.
Just in the realm of video games, probably buying the majority of games results in your money going to an objectively bad cause. Most rich people are scum.
Don't let perfect be the enemy of good. Sure, some of your money will probably always end up with bad people, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try to prevent that. There are different kinds of bad, and those who try to hurt minorities have to be broadly pushed back against by broader society, or it will have negative effects on those who often already face undue hardships.
Of course, my issue is the people bullying others for their choices when they themselves could be doing better. I can't stand hypocrites.
I bet all the people in this thread calling people bigots eat meat for every meal which to me is straight deplorable behaviour. But I'm not here to judge, I have my own faults too.
