He said nothing about race.
He said nothing about race.
the connection is in being a minority . If you didn't know the world in general is white washed. We are brainwashed into thinking what is attractive . Alot of kids grow up feeling bad about themselves because they don't see anyone who looks like them being "famous" .
Yea it's sad that it has to be a thing because it shouldn't BUT IT IS BECAUSE WE LIVE IN A COUNTRY WHERE IGNORANCE RUNS FREE AND YET THE BASIC CIVIL RIGHTS OF GAY PEOPLE AREN'T THE SAME. Is it REALLY that hard to understand?
Really? I mean, really? I forgot how much the straight people have been ridiculed, hated & basic civil rights not allowed because they're straight. You know if your mentality along with all the other ignorance towards things that are different would go away, so would these imaginary pedestals you think actually exist.
Sounds good.
it doesn't matter if he stated anything about race. Sexuality and Race are used because people hate on others just because of the skin they have or who they love.
Uh no I have to say it because you and the other child quoting me constantly are implying I am, and that things of that nature bother me or make me feel uncomfortable. Keep talking in caps it really gets your hissy fit across.
Fixed that for you.
Newsflash when it dropped that Venom was gay it was a big deal back in the day
Yes. Hissy fits. Yup....or maybe highlighting the facts you seem to not understand? This is a great thing not just for the gay community but for other people to realize that all kinds of people make up the MK story. Not hard at all to understand.......least i thought so.
You know Tim, I think you're wrong; really wrong infact. You throw the word ignorance out like crazy when you're no different. Seeing you post here points out that you don't think people can have an opinion other than your own.
Bingo.
The reason people celebrate it is because it's something that society still has an issue with, and they shouldn't. I mean, look at the Indiana law fiasco that's currently going on. People are outraged because it's pulling us backwards as a society, and people still don't accept gay people, despite the fact that someone being gay has zero effect on anyone else. It's just a big thing and a huge step when a gay character is introduced, since the representation is still rather small. It's an even crazier introduction because Kung Jin is also a Shaolin monk.
Just because you can have an opinion, doesnt make it right. The fact that there's never been a gay character in such a masculine kind of game like MK is a big deal. You can call it whatever the hell you want, but it doesn't mean that it is correct, but again, in a day in age when gay folks are treated like 2nd class human beings, it is a deal bigger than you, me, TYM, MK or gaming. It transcends that, just like when Rosa Parks refused to get up for a white person on a bus. Had history be reversed, the Civil Rights movements of decades ago and the one that exists now would be entirely different, as would be your opinion because you might have been the minority or persons who've been denied basic rights (like the ones expressed in the Declaration of Independence). This stuff you cannot argue.....but when you do, you come across weak minded, ignorant and hateful.
Both kinds of gay are acceptable ! Don't be throwing that kind of shit around . We have enough guys who are all I'm so masc and self hating let people be people . I guess it's a good thing you aren't the deciding factor on these "political" statements .
You misinterpret, I never said one was unacceptable I said annoying. Don't be so sensitive. Like I said, I have no issues with Gay people or rights etc. But don't shove that shit in my face with games, all I'm saying. If someone disagrees too bad. I have as much right to share my opinion as anyone else here. Like I said, I play MK for FICTION, NOT REALITY! My point. I'm not bashing him for being Gay, I still like him and use him as one of my mains. If I "hated gays" I wouldn't go near him or hate on the character.
He didn't say people can't be themselves he said he finds those types of people annoying. You can be heterosexual without being all "dudebro" about it, you can be black and not be hood, you can be gay without it being so overt. Those people can act that way I don't give a shit, but that doesn't mean I can't find a lot of those people to be abrasive or annoying to be around. And yes I do find those super drama queen hyper archetypical gay people whom I have met in real life to be kind of exasperating and annoying to be around. And I've met gay people who weren't so dramatic that were cool. Not saying every gay person is like one or the other, but I've met a majority who are like both.
I can't take anyone seriously who goes around using the "R" word like it's acceptable either . If you really want something down ya throat just ask politely . Haha if you have to prove to people you aren't homophobic you are sorry bruh.
Thank you! Glad someone got my point. I feel the same way about the posers out there who try to be something they're not(you know the wanna be ganstas or kids who try to be like Jersey Shore kids with the gel, glasses etc) that's just as annoying to me. Then there's also black friends, white friends I have who act nothing like that, they're just themselves know what I mean? You sound like you know what I mean. I had lots of experience with these types in school especially.
I don't know what you're reading man, but "R" word? What? Retconned? Retarded or Reality? And the "shoving something down your throat" it's an expression. Who said I'm homophobic? lol you assume a lot huh? I just said those guys who shout to the word that they're gay, and practically touch your face when they're talking to you are annoying. I also think close talkers are annoying....are you offended by that? lol You know who I can't take seriously? Those who get offended by a snowflake and act like it's a rock storm....
