wow really? it couldnt imply racism? why do you jump straight to mental illness? unless you think racism is a mental illness

if you look at a goblin and automatically think "Jewish" you might have a problem

you can stop lying now

The mod log continues to be public.

the first guy already said that, so i dont know what youre trying to imply. please, explain it to me

[-] vzq@lemm.ee 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

We can all see your comments and they are very insensitive. I wouldn’t have banned you over them but I see why a hexbear mod would.

[-] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 0 points 11 months ago

i dont see how they are insensitive in the slightest. people are putting words into my mouth

[-] vzq@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

No, you are putting words into your mouth. People are telling you what the words you are putting into your mouth mean and what the consequences are.

Take the feedback. Or leave it.

Either way, you are responsible for your actions.

no im saying one thing and people are saying im saying another thing entirely

[-] vzq@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

I take it back: I would totally ban you.

[-] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee -1 points 11 months ago

why? i wouldn't ban you even though you are quite clearly trolling to try getting a rise out of people

[-] vzq@lemm.ee -1 points 11 months ago

I’m not trolling. You seem genuinely incapable of taking any criticism on board, thereby virtually guaranteeing that the issue will persist.

So eventually I would ban you.

[-] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

what issue? you've never explained a real life issue. makes me certain you're just a troll

i wish we had a "boredly jerking off" emoji bc that's what this deserves in response

if you look at a goblin and automatically think "Jewish" you might have a problem

yes that would be true, if that was what was happening here. since you're obviously incapable of learning this will be a waste of time but here's some articles talking about the issue

since i know you probably won't bother i'm just going to quote some relevant bits from the last article

"Critics assert that the goblins, who control Gringotts bank within JK Rowling’s beloved wizarding world, resemble the caricatures depicted in the antisemitic 1903 book, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. [...] [T]he goblins’ appearance and profession parallel offensive antisemitic stereotypes such as having large, hooked noses and a particular covetousness for gold and money.

The game also includes a description of a special horn that closely resembles the Jewish shofar, which was used in the lore “during the 1612 Goblin Rebellion to rally troops and generally annoy witches and wizards,”

Critics were quick to also note that, coincidentally or not, the year 1612 coincides with The Fettmilch Uprising, a Jewish pogrom in Germany in which Jews were expelled from the city of Frankfurt. Although the uprising first began in 1612, Jews were only actually expelled in 1614."

wow thats pretty crazy didnt know all that. i dont see how im a terrible person for it though. boredly jerking off emoji here

[-] Kuori@hexbear.net 5 points 11 months ago

not knowing things doesn't make you a terrible person. however, if you choose to continue defending a blatantly hateful property in a franchise created by a bigot now that you know better, then yeah people would be justified in calling you a piece of shit

[-] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

not defending anything. im saying i like a game. people shit on me for that? how about my mother? is she a piece of shit? cause she likes the game?

[-] Kuori@hexbear.net 4 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

alright good talk, eat shit and die

yes that means your mommy too, you absolute dweeb

[-] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

wow. you're a terrible person

[-] Kuori@hexbear.net 6 points 11 months ago

i don't care what bigots think <3

[-] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

me neither, which is why your comments dont affect me. but still, treat people better in the future. its quite sad being an internet bully

have a good rest of the day Kuori! make good choices! 🥰
