I tried posting this on old reddit kia, and it keeps getting removed:

Why would it surprise anyone, when the director of the game listed themselves as a "Queerosexual Gendermancer", had all the usual "support flags" of that which shall not be named in their Twitter profile (which was then removed/hidden), and describes the Dragon Age franchise as:

“As a [that-which-shall-not-be-named] I have a perspective on the games that not everyone has. Dragon Age has long been a place where [that-which-shall-not-be-named] folks can see people like themselves, represented respectfully. It’s inherently very queer, and it’s such a rare thing for marginalized communities to have representation where we feel proud and powerful in how we are depicted.”

Do people honestly not think this sort of person being in charge might cause the game to be used as a platform for pushing a particular brand of politics front and center?

Seriously - there's no mystery here. These sorts of activists use whatever they have control of to push their politics.

I have scrubbed everything out of it that mentions "trans", and there are now literally zero mentions of the word-that-shall-not-be-named in there, but it is still verboten to point out why the game is like it is.

It so tiresome to see how effectively and completely these people have seized control of the debate, and have made it impossible to criticize them, or do anything that would give uninformed masses in the middle a reason to question what is going on.

KiA started blocking tranny criticism years and years ago

They claimed it was because of admin pressure, which was probably true to some extent, but everyone knows that they were thankful to have the excuse to finally force it without having to deal with blowback.

KIA mods have ruined any ability for me to give them benefit of the doubt, even when they are almost certainly in the right. A real "lemme go check if the sky is still blue like you are trying to claim" thing.

But I think we can agree its both true that the admins pushed it and many mods were happy to oblige.

It seems to be one particular mod, as that comment I posted up above (with every "offending" word redacted) was hidden for a while, but was eventually allowed (obviously it was reviewed by some other mod, and allowed...), and got up to like 30 or so upvotes. Then, after it had already been approved the other mod that had removed it before:

Eremeir [Modertial Exarch - likes femcock] (<- Actual tag, not added by me)

came around and removed it again.

I'm guessing that particular mod is one of the leftist commissars that was inserted into the mod crew a while back, as they're the one that seems to go around removing all the trans stuff (even when you've redacted everything like I had done).

Again - it's so fucking tiresome to see the degree to which this <1% of the population has been allowed to near completely take over and control almost all big public online discourse. If not for crazy ass Musk sinking 44 BILLION into fucking Twitter, their control would be almost 100%.

Does it seem like Reddit and the left in general just don’t have an imagination or fantasies (outside of dicking each other and injuring people)?

When you add their point of view as being superior rather than equal or simply alternative, their whinging makes a lot more sense, but only to their own. They honestly believe you should see them as your betters, as this guy illustrates by claiming his perspective sees things us simple snail-eyed mollusks are simply too dense to see.

They believe they're elevating and improving rather than just adapting. Adding their elite presence to media for us to flock to in our shortsighted lack of imagination. That we just don't get it is the complaint of a shepherd trying to move a flock that won't budge. Why won't they just bow down? They owe me!

When they fail, it is us who have failed to recognize and react. When we complain, we're simply wrong. It's all narcissistic denial, and nobody is allowed to stand up to it. A whole culture being bullied by literal psychotics.
