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.

  • Not sure where the transphobia is in his Tweet. Do elaborate please. The fact that they are transgender should not make them special. It is no different than a person making a comment on "hey, [insert [u]celebrity[/u] name here] gained weight." The fact that you are making a big deal about it goes to show that you're treating them special for being transgender. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't treating someone differently for their race considered racism? If so, wouldn't that make you sexist, OP?
