Literally nothing to do with telling gay people to STFU.

the articles literally "I hate that character because theyre openly bisexual and its messing with my head canon, she can be bi I suppose, but don't ruin it by making her be proud about it"

I don't the article is very good or pertinent (we already joked about it) but that's not the point the author is making and what bothers her is the association between "overt undiscriminated sexuality <---> bisexuality <---> evil" (which is not unprecedented in fiction).

Saying she would have preferred no representation over this specific one is not the same as saying the character should have been in the closet. Though it's true that in a way she is advocating for toning it down, I guess.

Quote from: Tobor, post: 22799661, member: 4168

I’ve had a Ring doorbell for a while now and I can absolutely vouch for this.

The neighborhood “alerts” are almost never actual suspicious behavior. It’s a bunch of noise combined with scared white people who freak out when anyone brown has the audacity to ring their doorbells or even walk by.

I’m dead serious. I’ve seen people post alerts because someone walked by their front door! It’s the modern version of the old neighbors calling each other and complaining about “others”.

I want to get rid of Ring and move to an encrypted camera without all this nonsense.

I just got a Ring device a few weeks back and the neighborhood alerts I have gotten have been for legit crimes that have happened. Nobody has said a word about race.

I mean, Ring Alerts aren't near as bad as Nextdoor, that shit really is just white people being vaguely racist with little filter. Ring Alerts are (for the most part) innocuous or actual criminal activity in my experience.

1) Juri is not a person, but a character in a video game
2) That article is about the portrayal of a bi character in a game, and how they don't like the bi stereotype of "horny for everyone" is used

So again, literally nothing to do with telling gay people to STFU.

She does write:

Quote

She was not only attracted to both men and women, she had to tell everybody about it, against their consent.

Which is very weird. When do you ever establish consent before telling someone your sexuality

The aspect bothering the author was the pride of that character in revelling in who they are.
Its a super fucking weird take to have as a gay author themselves.

Quote from: riotous on July 16, 2019, 12:43:50 PM

If you can't tell the difference between criticizing a bi character in a videogame, and what is happening on GAF, you might be GreatSage.

A gay man finding overt female sexuality troublesome and using the exact same arguments against it as straight men finding overt male homosexuality troublesome are both coming from the exact same place of "it makes me uncomfortable so they shouldn't do it".

I mean, without getting too psychoalanytical, the author literally says shes bothered by the character because they were open about who they are when she was closeted

This system, built by the elites, just doesn't work for salt of the earth Reee'ers like you and me riotous. They get to Reee from their ivory towers of priviledge and excess while anytime you or I try to have a bit of a Reee we're mocked and looked down upon or even outright threatened.
