And this only makes the claims that "this is not a political statement" more absurd. There may be room to argue that the original decision to let players select their pronouns is not political, but both the mod that removes it and the removal of that mod from Nexus are just pathetic attempts to get back at the other side. Can't get more political than that.

Who on earth are you talking about?

Of course this is political - because bigots made trans people's existence a target of their politics. Defending them against that hatred and abuse is not somehow equally wrong, compared to that hatred... and abuse.
