Nolan North Transphobic Comment on Twitter

https://twitter.com/nolan_north/status/636942232629587968 Hey Bungie, maybe not hire people that make transphobic jokes like these? 41% of transgender people attempt suicide at some point during their life. Jokes like these lead to our society not taking trans people seriously. If you want Nolan North to do the Ghost voice for you, tell him to apologize for this comment. It has seriously lowered my anticipation for TTK. Thanks.

    A rational adult would simply respect the right of others to say what they want, even if they found the comments offensive. OP has decided to attempt to have Bungie bully/censor Nolan into silence. And people wonder why no one takes the SJW crowd seriously and ignores them in most situations.

    To me it reads as he accepts Jenner for her and makes a joke about her as a women. You know, the high standards that society applies to women. A bit of a stretch to what you're claiming. But that's my opinion. Edit: I missed the link in his post. I can see why so many are upset. Had he not linked that, wouldn't have been so bad...

  • Didn't he not tweet yesterday that it wasn't a transphobic joke but a humoured tweet towards that person. Yet you still post this AFTER he explained it. Just trying to cause shit

    His comment "lowered your expectation for the game"? Wow you probably already had low expectations, for a voice actor's tweet to get on your nerves. Must just need to complain about something.

  • Funny how other people's business surprisingly don't affect me at all. P.s. social media is for preteen girls.

  • First, you're a sad, strange little person... Second, that comment is nowhere near any kind of "phobia"... Third, do us a favor and put your big boy or girl pants on and stop being so damn sensitive... Last, screw apologies! Own what you say, clarify it, or just keep your mouth shut...

    Obviously a light hearted joke. You may identify as a woman but you got a pair of balls. Act like it once in a while. Take a joke like a joke and deal with it. Attention grabbing clowns.

        I don't see anything wrong with what he posted. Go be a pussy somewhere else. Like Facebook.

      • I don't get how this is transphobic. He made a topical reference about someone who recently underwent a very public sex change. Was this even offensive?

        • The first step to equality and acceptance is to let yourself be equal to everyone else, not above them. All races, religions, genders, etc get teased because of various things. The world is basically one big bully because of the internet, and not letting people include you in their humor only prolongs that acceptance. Plus Jenner still has plenty of masculine features, she's not magically 100% feminine in terms of looks.

        • Hope he doesn't do any voices in Hello Kitty Adventure Island, because you will be left with nothing to play. Muted, for being nothing more than a worthless shit-stirrer.

          • Remember everyone, you are supposed to be accepting of everyone, until someone voices an opinion different to yours, then you are supposed to be a Hypocrite and be an absolute asshole to them for them having a different opinion to you

            • This community is so soft and prissy imo. Over reacting at its finest.

                Are you lost? This is b.net, not Tumblr.
