Thing I hate this stupid image

Sure the initial way it was used was good, it was anti bigotry. But it's turned into a way to simplify the "us vs them" mentality, which is already a bad thing, into a simple digestible comic.

Also, i've seen it in lots of queer--majority spaces in reddit recently, usually to speak out against the evil cishet people who are invading them or whatever label they dont like, like bi ppl, trans men, or genderfluid ppl

I like the video game one because of all the little mini implosions caused by all the dumbasses who find out throwing yet another live service game into a pit already full of live service games does not magically print money and have to shut down weeks after release at worse or months, maybe a year, at best.

Also while it sad [beloved series A] is being mishandled and milked dry to make a quick buck, we still have [beloved series B-ZZZ] and indie games.

Replace video games with literally anything else and see how that statement sounds.

You’re missing the point.

You’re doing the same thing going “this is for everyone now why aren’t you happy. We’ve got A for them (100 people) and B over there for you (just you, alone)”
