agreed. Not everything needs to be a political platform for anything

I acually feel ofended by this since it doesn´t include a heterosexual flag in it which will make it not full pride for everyone

The thing is, it has no need to be here in this video game, not saying pride is bad, its just that not everything needs to be a platform used for political subjects

While yes the skin is ugly (i mean a lot of warpaints are) the subject matter is still political due to events such as the stonewall inn incident and the ones proceeding that. Gay pride has been around the 60's and the best way to get recognition is to make a scene. So they had parades and riots ocassionally. While I read up on the subject of gay pride i've realized that gays have been scrutinized almost every waking moment. Regardless of how people feel previois events have made this a politcally charged subject mainly due to the small extremists. Even though extremists are found in every group or community, it always appears the lound minority in the community makes the first impression with people, usually tarnishing the group's integrity in the process.

"this game made jokes about political issues from several decades ago, so it's fine to force in one's own political beliefs."
it could be argued you're shoving your own political beliefs down my throat by saying that this is unnecessary.... even tho all this is is a weapon skin in a 12 year old video game

saying that parading your own political beliefs is unnecessary isn't really a political belief. this could go any way, left or right
because you're an absolute paragon of not shoving politics down others' throats.[cdn.discordapp.com]
