There is nothing criminal in creating, using and sharing those mods (as hateful as they are), the modder could have simply said he did it because he felt like it, but the mediaval theming justification is really stupid and inflammatory.

The community reaction is very counterproductive, they have only succeeded in making the mod very visible now. And nexusmods as usual accepting all kinds of horrible mods but censoring only according to drama. All badly here.

Lol why can't he just be like "as a straight dude, i don't really want characters of my character's sex coming into me."? That'd be a perfectly fine justification for a mod. The equivalent would apply if somebody wanted it to be even gayer. Shouldn't all this shit be preference anyway?

Jeff's answer was more direct and to the point, but I'd like to point out that as a straight dude, he turned one character in a lesbian relationship into a man. He wasn't turning characters' sex towards the player.

this isn’t about the law. this is about what’s right and what’s wrong. making mods like this, and allowing them to exist on the platform, is wrong.

Morality is complicated (especially online), there are many ways to interpret things and almost everything is wrong to different degrees for different people. It's easier to appeal to the hard limits of what people have or don't have the right to do.

Morally, one can also say that feeding a troll or arbitrary censorship is wrong. Which is not the same as saying that the platform has no right to block trolls and have content rules.

the complexity of morality does not preclude it from being discussed

It's good I have eternity client for Lemmy and it shows me my subscribed topics in the main tab

And I don't need to see people shouting at other people so often
