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.

    I didn't think it was all that funny, either, but I wasn't the guy he was poking fun at. Making a joke that falls flat is not even remotely the same thing as being anything phobic. The sad irony is that histrionics such as the OP's actually harm their cause. Otherwise sympathetic ears grow so tired of the wolf-crying that when a real issues arises, they're so sick of hearing about it they roll their eyes and ignore it.
