So what?

it must be cool to be colossally unaware of how people that aren't white or straight feel about things

See, the point is, I dont CARE. You do what you want, ill do what I want. Goons do what Goons do.

Do you really think anyone gives a flying phucc what you do in your bedroom or what color you are?

And who says I am white?? That seems pretty stereotypical to me.

c'mon only white people ever say things like that

thank you for taking the brave stance of not caring about bigotry. other people may care enough to do or say really nasty things to racial minorities or homosexuals, but your choice to ignore it because it does not directly affect you is really great and worthy of appreciation

I dont think you understand.

There is no reason for me (or anyone) to champion causes I have no stake in. Why would I care if someone said "really nasty things" to ANYONE (minorities, postmen, landscapers, the guy who cleans the gutters on your roof)?

Unless someone is physically hurting you, try taking advice from the old children's rhyme... sticks and stones.... ect.

Edit: More to the point... this is a GAME, and bulllshit real world crybaby issues about everyone who wants recognition for being a Gay/Straight black indian transgender cephlapoid with your own special little corner in a book somewhere because you dont want your feelings hurt and blah blah has NO PLACE in here.

video game forums aren't really the place to start lecturing people on oppression so... just start off by googling "empathy" and see where that takes you

Again, dont care. Its a game. About blowing up spaceships. As far as I can tell, space ships dont have sexuality, and the only races in the game have no affect on the gameplay.

But to become a lobbyist you have to already know everyone in the industry.

Politics is like a family reunion in the deep south so incestuous and inbred that anyone without a severe overbite and Tay-Sachs Syndrome is considered an outsider.

This thread is going places.

I can see what you see not - vision milky then eyes rot. When you turn they will be gone - whispering their hidden song.

We're actually somewhat apologetic about the state of our wiki articles, not because we're worried about offending people but because their attempts to sound 'edgy' are somewhat juvenile and embarrassing in retrospect. The word retrospect is important, though, because a lot of those were written years ago when the Internet was a very different place and never updated because we're criminally lazy and why bother rewriting the old wiki when we're gonna move everything over to Confluence this year guys for real.

If you want a more culturally modernized version of the GSF wiki, replace all instances of homophobic slang with a random selection from "sperg", "autist", or "Widot member" for what should be a fairly authentic experience.
