MODERATORS
To those that are saying they don't see a problem with this mod. Let me put it to you this way. Instead of a mod that turned one gay woman into a straight man what if it turned one black character into a white character?
There literally was a mod like that in Stardew Valley that turned Demetrius into a white character, and it was rightfully deleted from Nexus mods. If someone has that much of a problem with a character being a different race, sex, gender, or sexual identity then they're clearly bigoted no matter what they say to the contrary.
It's gay erasure, and it's bigotry, plain and simple.
I have no problem with a mod that changes someone's sexual orientation, someone's race, someone's species, or just plain removes or adds new characters. Why would I care how someone else is playing a game?
Neither do they have a right to a platform, hence, deleted off of the platform.
Exactly this. Play the game you want, but that shit shouldn't be platformed.
It's honestly surprising to me the bigots haven't set up their own mod hosting site. They've done it for everything else when they've been told that they're asshats.
It's free to host a mod on github. Mods like this and the pride flag remover for Spooderman are just trolls seeking attention and outrage, so they have to make sure to be very visible and find-able. Nexus has no obligation to host those files and if the modders actually wanted to play the game with the changes (and enable others to do so) it's totally possible to do that without Nexus. They upload to Nexus (which has a clear policy against this) so that they get exposure when "journalism" reports their mod being deleted (since talking about this is free Engagement™)
