Sexism exists in WoW. Prejudice against someone for their sexual orientation does not. I think it has been explained and agreed upon about four times already in this thread. I myself spent an ungodly amount of time trying to find any indication of any form of homophobia or the likes in all the Warcraft games, novels, short stories etc and found none.

Good evening citizens whatās going on in this thread-
By the Emperor
Reading what I missed andā¦ yeah, 'tis a troll. Or at least someone that seriously needs to re-evaluate the hill theyāre willing to die on.
Ignore them, move along.

I came home from a chill day visiting some relatives, sat down to check the forums and saw this. Someone needs to buy me a new pair of eyes.
How hard can it be to just accept that something isnāt a thing in a fantasy setting?

Very, to some people apparently. Even if itās ānot a thingā in Warcraft, itās a pretty weird thought process to go āWell I guess my character is just the first then!ā
Justā¦ to what end? What do you gain from making your character a homophobe? What part of āI hate gay peopleā in a character makes them more compelling or interesting?

There are much more interesting ways to make a character a jerk in this goofy setting imo

god damnit iām again too late, featherwindās banned already 
also psure when most ppl say they support BLM they mean the movement anyway and donāt know about whatever the organisation gets up to, thereās kind of a difference lmao
whatās the nonce bit of the california law btw? i kept hearing about how itās legalising nonces but elenthasās article says otherwise and i heard nothing abt how itās legalising nonces from ppl who claimed that anyway
I think they were looking for any excuse to call people child abusers tbh (and the sheer volume of unsubstantiated claims started to feel like projection)
Blatant trolling effort, but I think they know the harm that can be caused by what theyāve said, especially when directly trying to inaccurately link paedophile acceptance with the LGBT denomination
British man here to remind the forums that the one about taxation and representation was also a mistake.

Afaik I believe in the complete opposite. Give all the crazies as much platforms to be loud and clear about their intentions and what they want as possible- That way people like you, me, and majority of others can single them out and steer the hell clear of them and their ideas.
Trump classified them as a terrorist organisation (?) not too long ago, though I believe the classification was officially trumped as wellā¦ USAās presidents opinion has been previously noted quite highly in the field since they are the ones who more or less coined the war on terror in the start of the 2000ās- And they are under close surveillance in many countries across the globe, e.g. Australia. While they lack the structure necessary to globally brand them as a terrorist organisation, they do fit the definitions by the book in every other way possible in many cases (e.g. Inciting & using violence to terrorize people that disagree with them into silence, causing property damage, and harassing people), or at the very least that of a criminal organisation not dissimilar to biker gangs etc.
There are regional differences obviously. In my country for example the organisation is supposedly(?) quite tame but you donāt need to look beyond USA and UK and France to see the absolute insanity some of the members get up to.
In regards to BLM I used to be indifferent until a few weeks back I watched this program where this BLM from Finland flexed her mental gymnastics telling that racism against white people isnāt possible because Iām somehow more powerful than they are and therefore itās all ok- At which point I just decided that I do not care one bit whether the police beat them to bloody pulp or not- Seems they deserve each other.
Obviously anybody is for equal rights for everybody so under that brand probably everyone is BLM, but the movement has other elements that are less savoury and itās their duty to get rid of that bunch so we can see what they are really about.
People have been living rent-free in her head as far as I can remember. She canāt let go of it.

Iām not gonna type a long reply out, but the asking for whose words was more rhetorical as well as 45 reffering to trump.
But ye some good points.
According to Tehya above;
its projection.

Iām not quite sure what I missed here, but Iām quite glad I missed it. I canāt tell if a certain night elf was trolling, or just having very controversial views that they felt (for some reason) they needed to defend super aggressively.
Iām inclined towards the former, personally, and frankly thinking itās trolling will actually make me sleep better at night.
So. To clarify: LGBTQ+ represenation and support, shortened to ālove who you wantā does not lead to child abuse.
Source: I love all of you. I do not abuse children.

I dont know, but it was hilarious. Something about child grooming and one elf accusing another of meat spears and chrisitan parents. Then that turned into blm and antifa? The AD forums are a magical place.
I keep hearing and reading about child grooming in AD, are there any articles i can read more details about this or is it just a matter of hearsay and assumptions?
Trolling.
Its what he does when he rears his ugly head every now and then, had a name change but still the same old horrid person.
I believe, and honestly hope it is the latter. The reason why child groomng comes up in relation to a lot of the guilds associated with ERP isnāt that the guilds are specifically out there looking for children to prey upon, but because you canāt determine the age of a player through their TRP profile thereās a chance that you are doing sexually explicit roleplay with somebody who may be under the age of consent or legally classifiable as a child.
Either way, I can say that the āeveryone deserves to love everyoneā mantra and motto of the LGBTQ+ community (primarily) does not include children, and in the minority cases where it is a thing, itās sick, twisted individuals riding on the coattails of the LGBTQ+ community and they need to be kicked off ASAP.

I was hoping that someone else would pick up on this as I have other things to do (Elenthas is really letting the team down) butā¦
This could very easily be used to describe the level of police brutality to provoke the BLM protests and the continued brutality they have shown during those protests.
Peaceful protesters have been beaten, blinded, and otherwise terrorised by a hostile ālaw enforcementā.
I donāt 100% agree that racism against white people is impossible, but it is very very obviously far lesser an evil than racism against black/minority people, particularly in the US.
White/caucasian people (broadly speaking) are not the victims of systemic, racially-motivated violence. Black people in the US are. Black people in many other countries are.
A black person in Finland makes a point about racism that you disagree with, so you no longer care about the massive number who are murdered and brutalised by the police in the US? Right okay.
I invite you to consider why the BLM has come about, and why acts of violence - much of which can and should be condemned - have happened. Itās not because black people are a violent menace, it is people they belong to a denomination that has been systemically persecuted for decades, and worse before that.
I know that you wonāt, but I invite you to anyway.
