Really, dude? The first thread you made on this that got locked wasn’t sufficient?
Drama - Cringe - Nexus reportedly removing mods that remove pronouns from Starfield
NexusMods is reportedly removing any Starfield mods that seek to remove pronouns Many in the community have been claiming over the past few days that NexusMods was removing all Starfield mods attempting to remove pronouns from the game. At the time of writing, there's no official confirmation...www.neogaf.com
It's official word from nexus mods,
so...

Holy shit the mods on that site are horrible! For example "Historically Accurate 1800's Hogwarts - Makes the NPCs skin tone whiter".

You can call yourself whatever pronoum you like ... and so do I ... thats what freedom means.... freedom is not you call yourself a CAT and I have to call you a CAT or Im a asshole ... freedom goes both ways
Having a law that forces anyone to call anyone whatever they feel like is anything but "freedom" ..

"being an asshole" shouldn't be grounds for jail time in the first place. Thats just a small group of loud individuals being manipulative control freaks because not everyone wants to go along with their fantasies.

In other words, according to NexusMods, you can "objectify" women in video games!
As long as you get their fuckiiiiiiiiin pronouns right?
It's hilarious how the tables have turned on the feminist movement. They get completely ignored now it's all about the LGBTBBQCHICKENRIB brigade

Damn whats that movie with the quote 'Its every Americans damn right to chose to be arsehole if they want', Demolition Man?.
Whatever happened to that kind of thinking. Thats 'free world' thinking, which is a bad thing in clown world it seems.

I genuinely believe the world is in dire need of more assholery. Too much colluding and manipulation when we should just be punching each other.

Part of the problem is the younger generations (plus some older karens) who don't know how to just respectfully disagree.
The good thing about GAF (compared to reeeeeeeeeeeeee) is that (in most cases) people may have heated debates but in the end we know it's just words that don't mean anything. Some people are incapable of processing like that.

If you name is john, and I keep calling you chris, I'm an asshole...don't be an asshole...your life will have 0 impact by making someones a little bit better calling them their preferred pronouns. You have to go out of your way grand standing your politics in order to get fired for calling someone the wrong pronoun.
Theres no jail time associated with calling someone the wrong pronoun. This is a false claim.

Its funny i mentioned that quote without even realizing the context because that messed up world in Demoliton Man is the kind of loopy world we will get 30 or 40 years from now if the world carries on as it is. With the 'dinosaurs' like Stallone, and even the Simon Phoenix character, being the voices of reason in a messed up 'utopia' world lol.

First the left went overboard.., and now the right has gone firmly overboard as well.. and so it goes around and around..
No one is denying your reality, it's rather just a another challenge for your view of the society we live in. None of this is going to make the world nor biology cease to exist.

Of course it is a statement. Think about why they specifically targeted that mod for removal. They are likely members of reeee.

No one's life will be better by letting them believe in Santa Clause.
This is nothing like calling someone the wrong name purposefully. If your name is Bill and I call you Joey despite knowing you don't like it, that's assholery, because it's your legal name. Calling you He/Her when you want to be called Ze/Zur is not assholery because that's what the person is and anything else is made up.

I truly believe the only reason someone would download this mod is because they are scared they themselves may use various pronouns unless the option is taken away. Its hilarious how people get triggered by things that don't affect them at all, it's just an option

No one would know this existed if it wasn't taken down. Its been decades and people still haven't figured out the streisand effect.
And there's a big chance the mod was made to generate this exact reaction in the first place.
They were mocking made up pronouns with other made up pronouns and they got upset.I bet it was removed because there were words like "Attack Helicopter."

Removing the mod is stupid enough (is it really a thoughtcrime to say, "I want to mod my Starfield to just have men and women in it"?), but the complete spinelessness of doing so while not being able to stand behind it and say it is a political statement is so lame.
Doing that is an instance of the rhetoric that "my stance is not part of any argument, it is simply the truth" which is often used by people who can't defend their positions. It was a popular strategy in elementary school.

Why even use nexus mods? Just host it on steam or github.

Both sides care way too much.

Good, no reason for them to host content they obviously don’t agree with (and I mean if the inclusion of an incidental pronouns menu option in the character creator once in a 100+ hour game bothers you so much you want to actively mod it out of your game then you’re an easily offended loon and I have no real sympathy for you)

Not a political statement yet proceeds to allow multiple mods catering to the "other side". If you're gonna be a douche concerning mods at least man up and admit it, or they/them up.

You can say the same thing about your post. Why are you so triggered about this mod that lets people remove an option in the game on their PC? Let them, this doesn't affect you at all.

I'm sure there another way out there to get this installed if anyone were so inclined.

It's literally part of the game, effecting it. Maybe you should reserve your trigger criticism if it doesnt effect you either.

Cool keep being oblivious and minimizing things that have significant backlashes. Like i said, doesnt affect you, must be nice...yet you need to make this known.
Hey everybody! It doesnt effect him!!
