This post is about the current arguements taking place in the post called “Nexus
Mods Fine With Bigots Leaving Over Removed Starfield ‘Pronoun’ Mod” If the
primary objective here is to engage in constructive dialogue, then name-calling
and overgeneralization serve no purpose and only fuel the fire. The issue at
hand has been conflated to be about political affiliations like Republican vs.
Democrat, when that’s not the core point of discussion at all. We’re here to
debate the merits and drawbacks of mod removal, not to stereotype one another
based on our political leanings or otherwise. The aim of this post is to
encourage a constructive and respectful discussion around mod removals in gaming
communities. Name-calling, political labeling, and overgeneralization serve only
to fuel divisiveness and distract from the main issue. Rather than resorting to
stereotypes or making sweeping statements about each other’s viewpoints, let’s
aim to engage in a balanced and open dialogue that acknowledges the complexities
of the subject matter. We all have strong feelings about this topic, but
constructive conversations require that we steer clear of actions that deepen
divisions.
For everyone reading this, if you have thoughts or opinions on the subject, please direct them to the original post to centralize the discussion. Thank you.
I would like to see more peoples perspectives to try and achieve a middle ground with whether the mod should be kept or not.
“John Kennedy believed so strongly that one’s aim should not just be the most comfortable life possible, but that we should all do something to right the wrongs we see, and not just complain about them. We owe that to our country, and our country will suffer if we don’t serve her. He believed that one man can make a difference – and that every man should try.“
And it was Former First Lady Jacqueline Kennedy who said it.
Sealioning is often a tactic used to derail conversations, but that’s not my intent here. I genuinely want to explore the community standards that dictate mod removals. If you find that pseudo-intellectual, perhaps it’s because the questions themselves are inherently complex and require intellectual discussion.
In the words of JFK, ‘One person can make a difference, and everyone should try.’

Is the difference you’re trying to make to get everyone to lend validity to the notion of even discussing allowing the transphobic mod?
Ever heard of Sealioning? Look it up. That’s you. Your posts are dripping with pseudo-intellectual “just asking questions” spittle.
