‘Even gods can be flawed’ is among the least racist statements I’ve ever heard. The litmus test of mad libbing, gods->[race] doesn’t seem racist either. As an aside, it’s funny to note that the chillest person in the entirety of their universe, short of dog pope, is an ideological anarchist.

The chillest dude just wants to boil and eat crab.
Him and Patches both kinda dismiss the theft as protecting Rya from her own ignorance. And she is literally also trying to recruit people to prove they are strong so they can be fed to a giant snake, so... 🤷🏻♂️
Well what would YOU do if some religious weirdo walked up to you in your backyard while you BBQ'd and tried to recruit you to their snake cult and also refused to try your cooking?
What the hell is wrong with you. You trying to start something? Piss off. Before I crack you in 'alf.
And if you don't choose the right dialogue options he tries to fight to the death instead lol
Literally nothing to do with race... The gods are not perfect; they are no better than ordinary humans. That was the flaw he saw. Not sure what his fix is meant to be, though. Removing the Gods' emotions?
Shit, this is the ending I payed the least attention to. So according to the wiki it’s not just any emotion, but ambition.
The Age of Order Ending is an alternative version of the Golden Order ending, where the Tarnished chooses to use the Mending Rune of Perfect Order on the Elden Ring to restore order to the Lands Between by putting an end to all the strife caused by forces "emboldened by the flames of ambition".
The noble Goldmask once lamented that "all the good and the great wanted, in their foolishness, is an absolute evil to contend with", implying that one who seeks greater power to further his or her ambition will, in all likelihood, presents himself or herself as the greater good and condemn the other side as the absolute evil. Each will accuse the other as committing heresy. Strife would ensue, plunging the Lands Between into chaos and unending conflicts.
The Age of Order thus envisions a new age of stability, where there is no more conflict brought upon by the "fickleness of the gods no better than men" which was "emboldened by the flames of ambition".
I honestly don't care what the wiki says about the endings because 90% of the write ups about them were pulled straight out of one of Fextralife's editor's ass and not from the game itself. They push narratives that never happened, not even in cut content.
So a tricky thing with LGBT words is they seem to vary around specificity.
Like people can say gay to mean gay men, gay people, or any kind of queer.
Similarly transgender can mean a gender identity not matching your biological sex, which includes genderfluid; or it can mean specifically a binary trans man/woman.
These aren't different valid opinions about the label. They are literally just different definitions for the words that depend on context. The words mean all of those things but usually only one in each context.
Transgender and genderfluid identities are different.
Hold up. No, that's not correct. I am trans myself, and while I'm assuming it's not your intent to do so but this is walking in to some toxic gatekeeping that is common in some communities. Not tying to call you out, but respectfully and politely, it's a pretty big party foul to say a group is or isn't trans.
"Trans" is an umbrella term in which transgender, transexual, non-binary, generfluid, demi boy/girl and Intersex people all fit under. None of these things are mutually exclusive. And conversely, it's not a requirement either. Many intersex, fluid and non-binary people do not consider themselves trans, and that is 100% their right, but many do as well.
It's entirely an individuals choice, and saying X isn't "trans" only leads to exclusion and intercommunity bigotry.
I'd prefer to let the nonbinary and gender non-conforming folks speak for themselves, and a majority of them do not consider themselves trans. I understand your concerns about potential transmed arguments that could be derived from this, but it's a part of nb erasure that must be combated
and a majority of them do not consider themselves trans
And in my experience it's the opposite. But either way we are going in to anecdotal territory which isn't helpful. What's important that we agree on is that non binary folk absolutely have the right to decide for themselves either way.
Concerns about erasure is valid, but the language matters as not to be exclusionary. There is value in saying NB, intersex and fluid are distinct identities, but not in saying they are mutually exclusive from or inherently "not trans".
i mean, i doubt many genderfluid people were assigned genderfluid at birth, so they aren't really cis. whether or not individual genderfluid people choose to identify as transgender is their thing, but i think genderfluid broadly fits under the transgender umbrella. or are you saying genderfluid people are cis?
What the fuck kind of logic is that? Do you think that people are only capable of being cis or trans? There are several gender non-conforming identities, that does not make them trans.
i mean, what other categories are there besides cis and trans? either you identify as the gender you were assigned at birth or you dont.
I literally said the term. They are gender non-conforming. Don't impose your beliefs on people that don't want to be identified the way you think they should.
