I am going to ask you to re-read what I have posted. Its not them getting recognition, its the move, by the company, from a neutral stance to one more in favour of the woke crowd. Games are neutral. No politics, nada. I would say the exact same thing if PGI were siding with the KKK or people who were raging homophobes. But they bent the knee, they accepted that first push, and exactly as we have seen with Wizards of the Coast, with Hollywood, with most of the major video games companies i the past years, with GW of all places now, and with many more, once the knee has been bent it can never be unbent because the demands from the self proclaimed "good guys" will keep on coming.
Why did trans people need recognition in MWO? What does being trans have to do with piloting giant stompy robots? Why should someones identity even matter in the context of the game or the setting? Please, tell me, what am I missing here?
What more do you think they'll demand? Again, nothing has been required of or prohibited to you. The only thing that's changed is that two teams have "trans fights" and "trans rights" in their names. What's the next step here, do you think? Be
specific.

Narcissism, self-centeredness.
It's rather pervasive in our society nowadays really. I blame social media.
trans folks have had a rough time -- discriminated against both in the law and outside of it, ostracized from family, high rates of suicide as a result of the latter. I don't think allowing "trans fights" and "trans rights" as team names and in chat is the catering you think it is.
