If you hated trans people because some people online told you to boycott the product of a piece of shit celeb, not gonna lie dude you were a shit person and it had nothing to do with seeing the backlash to the game.

No joke, if this drama in any way altered your opinion of "trans folk" as a concept, you need to sit yourself down in front of a mirror and not get back up until youve fixed the rot in your personality. Utterly brainless take.

I was talking about the harassment and doxing of people who played/streamed Hogwarts Legacy during the boycott.

Honestly surprised that people seem to have forgotten about the harassment. It was really bad for some streamers and was inexcusable. It's like how gamingcirclejerk tried to deny that the harassment even happened.

They didn't forgot about the harassment. They're playing dumb.

If some completely anonymous random strangers doxxing people you dont know made you hate trans folk as a concept, it had literally nothing to do with the doxxing and you know it.

What a stupid thing to say. Invest in therapy asap.

When did I say I hate trans people? All I did is to point out an problem with the boycott. You had a group of people who harass and dox people. That group made trans people look bad. Keep on looking the other way. That will totally help the trans community. /s

It didnt make trans people look bad, because trans people arent a hive mind.

If this made trans people look bad to you, you are just a bigot looking for an excuse. You already hated them, this did not magically change anything

We're done here. It was nice talking to you.
