These people complain about the lack of good trans representation, without realising that their attitude and reputation is the exact cause of it.So its another year of pride for the game League Of Legends and despite having 168 champions( including quite a few LGB ones), riot hasn't ever confirmed (yet) that any of the characters are trans in the game. Hell the biggest trans rep that riot ever gave the trannies was that one obvious TIM prostitute in Arcane. This year's rep for trannies...a fucking generic poro.
I wouldn't be surprised if game companies are terrified at the prospect of designing trans characters, because doing so is akin to stepping into a minefield. If the character passes too well, it'll be accused of being a token trans character that you just have to believe is trans because the devs said they are. If it doesn't pass enough, it'll be accused of being a harmful stereotype. If the character can be killed/defeated, that's contributing to trans genocide. If you relegate them to a minor NPC role wherein they can't be killed/defeated, that's trans erasure.
The so-called trans community is so notoriously inconsistent, contradictory and difficult to appease that putting a trans character in your game is effectively the same as just throwing up your hands and saying 'please cancel/boycott us'. There will always be a vocal subset of the community that hates whatever trans character you create. As has been established many times, there is just no winning with trannies- even not playing isn't a winning move anymore, because in current year not waving the flag in your game is bigotry. And even when you do wave the flag, people still find cause to complain about it.
So happy pride month trannies- enjoy this vapid, tokenistic acknowledgement of your existence that is born not out of love or reverence, but entirely out of totalitarian fear of you. How proud you must be.
