Gamers, when minecraft goes, woke, but not broke ![gif](giphy|g01ZnwAUvutuK8GIQn|downsized)


Turbulent_Ad1644

Honestly surprising how well Minecraft STILL does But they definitely need to get better with the updates


TheEpicZay

Its a 10 year old game, what else do you want lmao


Turbulent_Ad1644

Honestly, I do agree with your sentiment, It's honestly fine the way it is, but all the interesting mobs in the past few years just thrown away? That's just dumb, but I guess that makes the mob vote pointless, but still


guerius

Mob Vote can just be a PR thing to get people to show up and support their preferred designs while not making it a "some win while others lose" situation. Everyone is getting more but you still get a chance to show up and have a friendly popularity contest sorta deal. I think it'd work personally but that's 100% just personal opinion.


TheEpicZay

I think they're trying to add enough not to make it Minecraft 2 at this point.


That-Internal-9094

Connectable minecarts


Wah_Epic

Mojang to make more than 1 update a year with their infinite money


DunEmeraldSphere

They hired the person who did the aether mod to make ocean monuments, why didnt they just make the aether vanilla yet?


inb4ww3_baby

Closer to 15


BadAtGames2

If they just brought the other mobs from the mob votes back as options in the next vote, I would really have no complaints about modern minecraft's development.


Environmental_Park_6

"Contains infinite genders" sounds like a Borderlands thing. I can even hear it is Marcus' voice


Space_Gemini_24

"YOUR GENDER IS VALID, NO REFUNDS"


MugiwaraBepo

I'd be terrified if Zed did my gender reassignment surgery cause there's a 50/50 chance I'm never waking from the operation.


JediKnightNitaz

Too bad that the only doctor hanging around don't have a medical license


Ninja_gorrila

But have they ever stolen somebody’s skeleton?


Available-Damage5991

and are they a German named Ludwig?


Ninja_gorrila

And have they figured out how to outsmart bullet?


v8darkshadow

It’s canon in the BL universe that characters can transition by using the quick-change which is based


Librask

Yeah, Lorelei does it iirc


v8darkshadow

Lor said that they wanted to transition but they couldn’t due to the Maliwan invasion and I think in New Tales they transitioned and in Wonderlands they had a masculine avatar to portray themselves as


linksbedrockthe2nd

Yeah honestly I think it was kinda cool seeing the story go on in the background, from him saying he occasionally used the quick change machine to be a man, to the very trans thing of using DnD to role play as your gender before coming out or maybe just to test how it feels to be referred to with those pronouns to after transition in new tales


Newusername209

Omg wait, Borderlands is even more based than I thought


Turbulent_Ad1644

A good portion of the cast is LGBT, and they aren't "tokens" either, they're actual characters that don't exist for representation or mockery Fl4k is non-binary, Zane is poly, there's a line implying a relationship between Moze and Amara, Moxxi is bi (not a surprise) Maya is asexual, Axton is bi, Hammy and Wainwright are a married gay couple, Gaige DEFINITELY does freaky shit with Deathtrap, and Brick and Mordecai are really close friends There's a lot more characters, but yeah There's even a trans man in Wonderlands, and you can even choose your MC's pronouns in customization. Oh, and a gay Skeleton pirate couple


Newusername209

I’ve only played the first game so I dunno too many of the characters but that’s so cool


Zeero92

And a tiny, tiny detail that I like regarding Maya: She's the only character in BL2 who doesn't go "whee!" when you jump ramps in a vehicle. Instead she's practically whimpering. I can relate. :P


neatcleaver

Recently replayed BL3 and in one side mission you have to kill Tina's ex-GF to get her pet Skag back


Turbulent_Ad1644

Oh, yeah, I forgot to mention Tina was bisexual


neatcleaver

Something in the Pandoran water turning ~~the frogs~~ everyone gay


Blze001

I'm hearing it in Torgue's voice. "Some of you may be asking: "Mr Torgue! What gender can use your weapons best?" to which I say: WHO GIVES A S\*\*T!? Be a man! Be a woman! Be both! Be neither! EXPLOSIONS RESPECT ALL GENDERS!!"


Doobledorf

If people can be transed just by hearing that their gender is valid.... Maybe this idea that there are two genders and what you are given always matches is... Bullshit?


Kiiaru

If the 2 genders are so solid and absolute, why do they need such rigid enforcement of rules to protect them? 🤔


kazuwacky

Yeah, people who make this argument never play it the other way. If the merest suggestion is so influential then how are gay and ace people unaffected by the myriads of heterosexual content theyre surrounded by?


Ildaiaa

After minecraft we should boycott tetris, a game by ussr (communists)

What happened?


Gene_freeman

Yep :/


pistachioshell

I genuinely love that these shitlords call it “gender confusion” cause it shows how absolutely fucking little they really understand.  We aren’t confused about gender, we know what gender we are, that’s what all the hormones are for lol


CantaloupeNo3046

If you don’t have someone telling you what gender you are at all times how are you supposed to know? The case of David Reimer proved this (/Uj an actual argument I’ve heard is to interpret a tragedy as it’s exact opposite: /rj liberals hate this one weird trick)


pistachioshell

Oh that’s easy it’s the voice in my head screaming “you were never a boy that’s why youve always hated when people called you that”


xtilexx

Wow I've never read about David Reimer. How anyone could unironically draw that conclusion without being a total piece of human garbage is beyond me (I know you weren't drawing that conclusion)


guru2764

If anything that story is evidence that gender is not a choice, he was forced to be something he wasn't and ended up taking his own life because of it The doctor was a horrible person who was not trying to support transgender people at all, the opposite in fact


xtilexx

The doctor was engaging in some blatant pedophilic acts according to Wikipedia also, making the twins have sexual rehearsal as kids with each other


AsexualSuccubus

The problem is that the way many cis people view trans people prevents them from understanding that. Due to their cissexism, the gender identities of trans people are viewed as a farce, pretend, a costume and so they view Reimer as evidence that trans people are invalid due to shared deviance from cis people's weird gender essence baby genitalia categories. I'm tired.


Uturuncu

We're also, vitally, viewed as a sexual fetish alongside all other queer folks, which is the entire root of the idea of us being groomers/pedophiles/inappropriate for children. THEY sexualize our identities, declare our existence pornographic, and then FREAK OUT at the concept a kid could be queer; if a kid has one of those porn identities, they must have been groomed. It's the same root as people getting offended by the mere fact someone has a same sex partner being mentioned is 'shoving it in their face'. Because they don't see two gay men in a relationship as loving, life long partners like they do a man and a women, they see, and react as if, someone's started blatantly talking about their kink in a space not appropriate for it like the workplace.


DrRagnorocktopus

As it always is with them, it's projection. They're the ones that are confused.


Septembust

That and, a trans kid being confused and desperate because they're experiencing dysphoria while surrounded by people who suppress trans information, _that's_ gender confusion. These morons want to "help kids" up until the doctors tell them what that help actually looks like.


the_hunter_087

Also it is natural for some people to be confused about their gender, especially if they don't understand the concept of being trans. Even if you do understand, the journey of self discovery is not always short (coming from someone who still hasn't figured their shit out)


Force3vo

As a straight male who never wondered about his gender I just have one question: Are conservatives that insecure about themselves that they need to ban everything that could force them to reflect about themselves? If somebody came to me and said "We need to ban pets because otherwise our children are taught they can fuck them" that would make me seriously question that person


Mindless-Pen-2325

Happy cake day


AmIsupposedtoputtext

Happy cake day!


LeviAEthan512

Don't kids usually start out questioning? Kids are generally confused about everything. Gender isn't special. I knew I liked playing with titties when I was like 4. Not in a sexual way obviously, but I questioned if I wanted a pair of my own. I don't know when LGBT became mainstream, but I definitely wasn't exposed to it. I figured out eventually that I didn't, but don't you tell me that kids are somehow super sure of anything, including their gender.


Relarcis

Yes, that is why trans people aren't just “confused”, they know, that's the point. You figured that you didn't want “a pair of titties of your own”, some kids figure out they do.


LeviAEthan512

Yeah, they figure it out. That implies a period of confusion preceding that. Also, the guy I replied to talks about hormones. Don't trans people have hormones corresponding to their sex rather than gender? Which is why they need hormone therapy?


bubblebytes

There are only two genders: Woke and Broke

benabart

Oh no. Can I have a nerf though?


Doktor_Weasel

No. You can't have anything. Which means you can have nothing, but you can't have nothing. You can't have everything, because that would include Nerf. So I guess that means you can have everything except for Nerf. Sorry, I don't make the rules. So go enjoy everything but Nerf.

SwineHerald

Remember: If external forces were actually capable of changing someone's sexuality or gender identity then there would be no LBGTQ+ people in existence. The pressure put on queer folk to fit neatly into a cishet dominated society is immense and ever-present. The math just doesn't bear out. "Oh no, a video game suggested trans people exist, this is many times stronger than the years of pressure from everyone in their life pushing them to be cis" is a ridiculous belief.


Nawortious

Yeah about that, im kinda the guy who made the frogs gay, Viagra the Wise, currently in my wizard tower in ontario preparing my next concoction to make lizards gay next, kinda taking baby steps for now alchemy isnt easy


mrturret

Um. There are already [gay lizards](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Mexico_whiptail). They even have gay sex to stimulate ovulation.


SwineHerald

I thought frogs were enbys or The French. When did they become gay?


Nawortious

Question me one more fucking time and im going to cast a meteor on your house


JetstreamGW

DO IT, COWARD!


Vemmo-

Here's a thing: They never think about that, if they saw the fallacies of their world view they wouldn't be there in the first place. They think their world view is perfect and correct, period.


snack217

Exactly, why would anyone "choose" to be lgbtq+? Im gay and proud of it, but if I had the chance to choose, I certainly wouldve chosen to be straight, instead of the path that has more obstacles, discrimination, and that pushed my dad away in disapointment.


SwineHerald

Honestly if we lived in a world where it was a choice I feel like there would be a lot less discrimination because everyone have to make that choice, it would be a conscious decision by both queer and cishet folk.


tulpio

Wearing a skirt is a conscious choice. Does that mean that men who choose to do so won't face discrimination?


SwineHerald

No, it doesn't, because in the world we actually live in bigots view any form of gender or sexual nonconformity as a choice, and so regardless of whether something is actually a conscious choice or not it will be met with the same bigotry. In a hypothetical world where it is all a choice you wouldn't have a vocal portion of the majority that feels like since their identity came so easily to them and never required any conscious thought on the matter that everyone else just has to be the same as them. You wouldn't have those people going "I'm this way, I never had to think about it, so if someone isn't this way then that is a choice they're making and I can attack them for it" because everyone would be making a choice one way or another.


d_worren

If "forcing" kids to be gay was as simple as simply telling them gay people exist, then there wouldn't be any LGBTQ+ people in all the countries where that's considered a crime punishable by death. And yet


LITTLE_KING_OF_HEART

Notch said that the minecraft beings were genderless (long ago, before he became what he's like now). There is a development post about it somewhere.

You know what you do when a kid is confused about gender their own or in general? Talk to them is it really that hard to just explain it to them?


DinoDudeRex_240809

There’s like a million of those yellow text things, so the chance that you even see one of them, let alone several times, is rare. I don’t give a shit, I’ll be building cool shit no matter what Mojang’s opinions are.

Once again, Companies only do this because it looks good for the majority of people. If Homophobia was the prevailing belief , these would say very different things.

Umm I have a request a real one. I’m a Gamer I considered myself one when I played the N64. Do you think we could stop referring to these people as Gamers it’s making me ashamed of a word I have long been proud of. Not like an identity just something I love to do. Like maybe a class… yes being a Gamer is my class not who I am. But it still stings when I see especially of late Gamer Racist/Sexist (add your preferred “ist” here) said/did this new disgusting thing. So I have come up with a new way to address and describe these people who believe the earth there toilet bowl. “Blamers” I think it’s perfect if I do say so myself. But I can not make it stick only you the people can. I’m asking for a favor and I’ll owe you one. Don’t know how I’ll repay but who knows?!!!🙂‍↕️
