Nolan North Transphobic Comment on Twitter
https://twitter.com/nolan_north/status/636942232629587968
Hey Bungie, maybe not hire people that make transphobic jokes like these?
41% of transgender people attempt suicide at some point during their life. Jokes like these lead to our society not taking trans people seriously.
If you want Nolan North to do the Ghost voice for you, tell him to apologize for this comment. It has seriously lowered my anticipation for TTK. Thanks.

1 ReplyWho the -blam!- cares? Society gets all butt hurt over stupid shit. Guess what? If someone said shit like that about someone who is actually a woman as a joke, people would think nothing of it aside from the most extreme femenists. If he gets in trouble over such a stupid thing, it just shows how badly "protected" groups have taken advantage of the "poor me" bullshit. Also, people will forget all about this by the end of the weekend when someone else makes a comment that puts the world up in arms. So like I said, who the -blam!- cares? If you are so worried about it, you should probably rethink your life and priorities.

Jokes spawn from tragedy. Haven't u ever made a distasteful joke? You never meant to offend anyone, u were just having a laugh. Get it? If u are comfortable with yourself then u understand when someone makes a playful joke about u, u can laugh and accept the humor in it. I don't think he was trying to bash anything, he just found it funny, simple as that. I doubt Jenner will find this upsetting at all, she has probably heard some pretty messed up stuff from people who actually hate her decisions. Just a joke friend.

Any joke where a trans person is involved is automatically transphobic? If the point is to accept trans people and treat them like people, fairly and equally, why should they be exempt from a joke? He even stated the joke, as lame as it was, wasn't meant to be transphobic. People just jumped to conclusions too quickly. As does the majority of society these days. But yeah, I see nothing transphobic here. Just a bad attempt at humor.

So all transgender people are off limits for humor? The comment didn't have anything to do with gender. If i say Caitlin looks like Quagmires dad on Family Guy, it's not transphobic. It's a humorous observation about an ugly chick.

Might as well get rid of the first amendment while we're at it. Besides, social trends are more important than the Constitution right?

Edited by Wickedstrife: 8/28/2015 7:28:53 PMWho cares? A joke is made for fun, not because you really have a problem. Politically correct pussies that get mad over jokes are a huge part of America going to crap. I can't stand politically correct anything. People need to stop being so thin skinned and take a joke.

It wasn't transphobic, I could see that at first glance, you people are -blam!-ing insane. Go to the hospital and get some help.

As a heterogender, I am completely offended that you are antitransphobically offended. You should be banned from Destiny until you repent of your hatred for others who do not share your beliefs. How can you be so heterogenically biased, bigoted and hypocritical.
