Nolan North Transphobic Comment on Twitter

https://twitter.com/nolan_north/status/636942232629587968 Hey Bungie, maybe not hire people that make transphobic jokes like these? 41% of transgender people attempt suicide at some point during their life. Jokes like these lead to our society not taking trans people seriously. If you want Nolan North to do the Ghost voice for you, tell him to apologize for this comment. It has seriously lowered my anticipation for TTK. Thanks.

    • 1. No one cares about you. 2. If a joke really effects your perception on a game, grow up. 3. It wasn't even transphobic, it was a joke about a current situation, transphobia is the fear of transphobic people. Making a joke about it is not fear of it. 4. The fact that you and other white knights have to defend trans people instead of them defending themselves shows you have no confidence in their ability to be their own person, you transphobic shit lord. 5. Please cite the source and study with the 41% figures please.

    • This isn't tumblr, go complain there. Trannys aren't special and shouldn't be treated delicately. They wanna be equal then they should be able to take a joke.

      • If you're talking post op, that's consistent with physical trauma. Gender reassignment surgery is purely cosmetic and as far as the body is concerned would be a major physical trauma not dissimilar to losing a limb or an major organ. It also fails to change chromosomes and DNA essentially making mind and body be in conflict over gender. Given that starting point hormone therapy and possible immune suppressants would only make mental and emotional states worse. The overall surgery package really isn't very good and likely won't be until chromosomes and DNA can be altered to prevent the body from fighting back. Acceptance of self is probably a better path.

          • "Transgender" is something that the human race should and could live without.

              Or transgenders can stop playing the victim card every time someone makes a joke. Meanwhile the internet/media can stop blindly idolizing Caitlyn Jenner, whose only note-worthy achievement is being an Olympic athlete, not becoming a woman. That sounds much better.

            • And the Hicksville residents come out of the woodwork of Destiny's official forums. Which isn't hard to do in these forums in the first place as a good portion are somehow related to Hitler in their own words. If Drake Bell can apologize for an insensitive joke, than so can Noland. It was insensitive and makes light of the trans community. The more you laugh at something the less you take it seriously. Like Destiny. Welcome to the Real World where sometimes being a decent human being means more than a poor joke you and the residents of Hicksville think is funny. Inb4 the Destiny community thinks apologies are somehow immasculating and chopping their balls off
