re: cyberpunk 2077 transphobia 

so on birdsite, some CDPR social media goon made a "did you just assume their gender" "joke", and they later deleted the tweet and half-apologized--"sorry you were offended"

I just remember the post I made last time cyberpunk media screwed up...

re: cyberpunk 2077 transphobia 

To clarify, this is a matter of judgement, not genre classification. It turns out there has been a lot of problematic cyberpunk even in the early days of the genre. I just think those parts are bad and we can do better.

@KommaChameleon Cyberprep maybe? Except no, a lot of cyberprep is still most if not all of those, it's just expressed differently...

@KommaChameleon correct me if I'm wrong but english-as-a-second-language people might not understand the nuances that "joke" has in English speaking cultures.
