Oh, please. Going with the "hill you want to die on" bit? Really, now? How about this: the vast majority of poc don't buy into this censor every little thing nonsense, and are speaking out on it more and more, particularly when nothing was ever offensive to begin with. Step out of the echo chamber and actually see what people are saying about how harmful this gibberish is (hello, CRT); how patronizing and infantilizing treating poc (or any group really, not to mention the anti-white and asian hate) this way is, as if they're all brainless, spineless children that require treatment with kid gloves. Do some self-reflection and Knock it off.

EDIT: Treating superstitious nonsense this way isn't "dismissive", it's living in reality. Get over it.

We do not need you dismissing our culture and beliefs as "nonsense" nor do we want you comparing it to Christian mythology. Our culture is closed, you are not to weigh in. The author should have changed the name of the monster entirely. Censoring the word is the least to be done. Us continuing to demand our culture be at least respected somewhat is not "gibberish" nor is it "infantilizing." You do not speak for us, in any capacity, ever. Respect our culture. End of discussion.

Don't know how I only noticed this months later, but anyway... posting this here since Itch won't let me respond to that Echo user below. If Itch allows people to block others, and then you can't respond to them... bruh. How pathetic is it to block someone because you can't handle them disagreeing with you on the internet? Doubt she or he will see this, but w/e.

1: I never mentioned anything about Christianity, but another poster did, so maybe actually check who you're responding to before hitting that "post reply" button, honey. Also, I'm an atheist, so it's all nonsense to me—get over it.

2: "Our" culture? Oh, please. Even if you are NA, YOU do not speak for everyone who is, full stop, and plenty who are do not share your backwards views. Furthermore, no culture is "closed", so what are you even on about? No-one gets to talk about any culture, ever, except those who are supposedly a part of it? Miss me with that (actual) regressive nonsense. Sharing stories, food, clothing, etc., across cultures can enrich society as a whole, but here you are, endorsing staying in an isolated little bubble. Brilliant.

3: Speaking of "curses" like they're actually real IS superstitious nonsense, honey, and blindly following the words of some hyper sensitive, virtue-signalling person on a discord server claiming using the word WENDIGO (again, a creature from NA folklore) is honestly sad. It's people like you that are making society as a whole worse. Step out of your regressive echo chamber and grow up.

You didn't really respond to Max's point so I'm gonna repeat it. It's literally just censoring a word. Even if you think it's silly, the word being censored doesn't hurt anyone and actually might make some people happy, so why does it matter so much? The dev did a nice thing, it's fine lol.

I did, actually, but sure, ignore it. Here, I'll say the same thing again in a different way, just for you: it was a pointless change and achieves nothing except making some virtue-signaling keyboard activists (whiners) pat themselves on the back because they made someone on the internet remove a single word in a visual novel—someones' (their) knickers might get in a twist otherwise! Oh no! These mighty internet warriors, these saviors, fighting on behalf of the poor, poor poc. I'm sure everyone out their with actual problems really appreciate it. /s (if it wasn't obvious)

This sort of thing has been happening daily, on much larger scales in the west, with far more important things than a visual novel. So, do you understand? Is it clicking for you yet? Hope so, because I've already spent one minute too many on this circus, so have fun, I guess.

xeb babe ilysm just know that i was rooting for u in this 🤞u fr ate them up n made pretty valid points that really needed to be vocalised

(Appreciate it. People can't handle being called out, clearly... like that poster below, Totervogel, who blocked me before I could even respond to any of his/her 6 posts. Lol. Just proving my point; yet another perfect example of a coward who can't handle push back. Gonna just cut and paste here what I originally typed out, then. I have no patience for this nonsense.)


I thought about not responding, but here, I'll humour you. But... wow, 6 posts from you? Really? You realise you could have put everything in one comment, right? Or was that too difficult for you?

1) I don't think you understand what the word "bait" is. The person (whom I had never interacted with previously) made one post, and when I tried to respond months later, well, turns out I was already blocked. That smells of someone with low self-esteem who can't handle any sort of push back and can't actually support what they say, which is pathetic. I was blunt in all my posts and calling out nonsense (hardly "toxic;" that word gets thrown around so often without any understanding of the word itself), and I won't apologise for it. Deal with it.

2) I said "clown world"; I did not call the poster a clown. You need to work on your reading comprehension. If I'm "rude and foul" according to you, I'm guessing you've never encountered people who actually are those things? Gotta say, you're in for a rude awakening when you finally do, kiddo. Calling people "whiners" is hardly the worst thing a person can say. Grow up. 

As for the "grow up" comment directed at me, honey... I'm not the one demanding that a single word in a visual novel be changed, or going on about "cultural sensitivity", or demanding the world be covered in bubble wrap for my sake; that's a very specific group of vocal whiners doing that these days in the western world. I have more important things to worry about, like paying bills.

3) Look up "anti-white hate" on youtube and tons of results will pop up. Your ignorance of reality is not my problem. Also, gotta love how you ignored me saying "asian hate", too. While you're at it, look up "anti-asian hate"; plenty of results there, as well, but I doubt you'll look up either of those things. People such as yourself (and the original poster) don't really like having your view of the world challenged, so I'm not expecting much. 

Oh, and before you (or anyone else) brings it up... I'm not on the right OR the left. I find both sides equally annoying most of the time, and there are people of every race out there who echo my sentiments. Step out of your little bubble and actually take a look for a change. Here, I'll even give you an example of one such person: Amir Odom. Look him up on youtube.

I totally agree with you in case of this novel but sometimes such censorship is really needed like what about homophobic or transphobic or sexist slur? And other really bad and offensive words. Judging by what you wrote here you can't even divide between good and bad censorship (also wtf 'anti white hate'?)

(-1)

Also you are being very rude lol nobody here literally didn't insult you but you still behave like an  offended kid. Who is a clown and who needs to grow up?

'How pathetic is it to block someone because you can't handle them disagreeing with you on the internet?'

Nice bait, man.) But every user has the right to block you because they don't want to read your nonsense and spend time on you.  As you say: get over it, kiddo. People aren't obliged to you and your rude foul mouth 

Also I wanted to support you but you are too toxic 

Also that person said end of discussion so

'if they're all brainless, spineless children that require treatment with kid gloves'


No, silly, people just want to see some respect aand proper wordings. Anyway why are you even mopping about some groups of people? You haters can't live without it
