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.
-
-blam!-in Nolan also sounds like a -blam!-in child. And now he's saying things like this? -blam!- that guy, hopefully a way to mute your ghost and only read subtitles.
-
Not only is that joke lame and definitely reaching for likes, he's insulted great Mona Lisa. Hopefully, his voice acting makes up for his transgression.
-
Yo that's straight up offensive
-
Dude? Seriously? Go to Thailand if you want to praise all these tranny!
-
To all Trans people: You do you, and I don't care if you do But, I won't take you seriously, sorry, but I just can't.
-
Why is this in the "Destiny" thread not "off topic"?
-
Op is fgt.
-
I'n sorry you had to read all these comments OP. I know what you were trying to do, but random people on forums just don't get it. I appreciate your concern, what a sad world we live in.
-
Wow I was censored because I told the truth that gender reassignment hurts people with gender identity disorders more than it helps them. Guess the truth isn't allowed here.
-
As a quasi hex-gender omni bi-femasculine quarter-grey moonkin, this thread offends me.
-
This thread is about captain falcon....lets discuss captain falcon.
-
The best thing about this post is it brings the transphobic turds into the spotlight. Let the muting begin! [spoiler]if you reply to this with some bullshit and I don't reply, this means you've already been muted. Peace out.[/spoiler]
-
that is so not transphobic. it is an observation. letting herself go means like, having a bad hair day or binge drinking. etc. transphobic would be like, " I wouldn't want Caitlyn Jenner around my kids".
-
What was so offensive. Saying someone is Letting yourself go doesn't mean someone hates them it just means that he thinks that she had a bad hair day.
-
The joke is harmless. Righteousness like this is the kind of shit that lead to the crusades.
-
Edited by Hippo_Legacy: 8/29/2015 12:38:38 AMDude, if you want EQUALITY then you can't freak the -blam!- out when somebody makes a joke. If he was making fun of the fact that Caitlyn Jenner is transgender that'd be one thing, but this is just a normal celebrity, you're fat joke.
-
So he can't disagree/joke about/hate on ANY SINGLE transgender person? That comment did not discriminate on all Trans people, It merely joked about one who has literally made her life a media circus. Anyone who does what she's done has it coming from all sides. Get over yourself douche bag.
-
Transphobia is a thing? What has this world come to. Oh well, better add that to the list of phobias i have.
-
His remark was offensive. And his follow up remark didn't make it any less offensive. North should do the right thing and apologize. That being said, I don't think it has anything to do with Bungie.
-
You know, i consider myself pretty tolerant. I know empathy, and I see people for what they are I will never understand trannies though, weird af. Grow a pair.
-
How about we accept the fact that everyone has different opinions. I don't like the idea of being gay. Doesn't mean I don't like some of my gay friends.
-
OH NO!!!!! Please tell me he didn't joke about something!!!!! NOOOOOOOOO. NOLAN, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!?!?!?! JOKES ARE A NO NO AROUND HERE!!!!!!
-
"The views portrayed in this tweet are not the express views of Bungie or any of its affiliates" [spoiler]Sorry if you were offended by the joke, but Nolan North is an independent actor, not an employee of Bungie. Bungie is not accountable for his thoughts or opinions, so therefore don't blame them. That would be like saying Tom Cruise is a scientologist, therefore everyone at Paramount studios is a scientologist. [/spoiler]

Jesus turn down the sensitivity levels. Anything on the net can be implied as bad.
-
Grow the -blam!- up you sensitive little priss. Save yer PC bullshit for the sheeple you surround yourself with.
-
Relax dude.
