It sounds like it wasn't the content of the mod, but the description text that got it banned.
In that text the author exposed his bigoted intentions.
There are tons of gender swap / dialog change mods.
Their desires are no less valid than ours.
Not sure what you mean? I was simply clarifying the reason for deletion.
Regarding their desires, sure, that's fine, but it's the nexus mod's platform and they have no obligation to host content they disagree with, regardless of validity of reason.
Just like how Facebook has no obligation to display democrat talking points? They can filter and supress how they please. What's wrong with that, right?
We gotta come to some kind of agreement about mass media and the way they control everyone's lives. Websites with a certain level of influence gotta be held accountable as avenues of speech.
Wtf man yes! A private entity has no obligation to host speech of others that they disagree with.
It is not their fault that clowns get confused about the narrative, and it's not nexus' fault that bigots can't find mods they want.
So where do I get my news? If everyone on every platform just just demonizing and censoring their opposition, what's fair? Am I supposed to just stoop to that bullshit myself? If that's the way, we're never gonna overcome the interests of the rich.
I think we gotta draw a line between private entities. There's a good difference between a single person or club and huge outlets like Facebook and Nexus mods. How do we articulate the distinction?
