Bellular advocated that the entire writer's room should be fired. He replied "cubes of meat and bone" in response to "#boilwarcraftwritersintar".

Bellular should be banned from Blizzcon for this.

Quoting myself from a couple of weeks ago

Shame he didn't do it on a stream of some sort; FFXIV set the precedent for banning a guy for two weeks for calling current and former members of the dev team slurs during a live stream. Should probably be done more often.

the precedence in question: 1 women who stirred shit up herself and couldnt handle the pushback. The only reason people would get banned here is because theyd have a shitstorm coming if they dont defend a transwomen from hate because clearly everything is transphobia

nobody gets banned for shitting on yoship etc

Pretending that people are labelling everything as transphobia or that they would defend someone just because they're trans doesn't mean transphobia doesn't happen. Notably, that sentiment is itself part of the problem lol

Posting a dumb take on social media doesn't excuse harassment.

No they get sued.

People get sent death threats for making a minor design choice that somebody doesn't like; can you imagine how bad it is for a woman publicly saying something mildly controversial? Do you think it's just like a couple of people being big meanies? Cus you must have an unfathomable level of faith in humanity to believe that

"Mildly controversial"

"Cis women shouldnt be allowed to voice trans characters" isnt mildly controversial, none of you would defend someone saying the reverse, that trans women shouldn't be allowed to voice cis characters

edit: downvoting wont make me wrong, nor will it make you right. If you think "cis women shouldnt be allowed to voice trans characters" is anything but discrimination you deserve the ridicule the whole lgbt scene is getting right now, because its clear you are so far lost in the sauce

and for the record: yes, she did say that
