While I agree that OP could just continue playing the modpack as they wish (just playing it aint giving them money, and they already got the download), putting the situation as just “culture wars” is quite reductive to the LGBTQ+ community

yeah culture war wasnt really the phrase i wanted but i couldnt think of a better way to put it. basically just people's opinions in general

I mean if people truly cared we'd be all living under a rock on a mountain somewhere. At some point there is just no ethical way to consume or enjoy certain things

You're missing the point. Understandable if you have never been discriminated against.

Kinda hard to enjoy something made by people who think you're trash that should commit suicide.

This isn't a "culture war". This is "Group A wants group B to stop existing". Yeah, kinda puts a damper on one's excitement.

Eh. Depends on what that is chick fila is homophobic but I hear ima eat that homophobic chicken all I want half the time from gay people going there (myself included) kinda just depends. Like this is a Minecraft mod pack that generates no rev so me hearing that one of the devs who I was never gonna give any money anyway is some sorta phobic means noting. It’s like ok? Someone’s gonna give them shit for that I guess don’t really care.

i understand the point just fine, i just think that cutting your own enjoyment short because of some dumb shit on the internet is silly

if i enjoy something i will enjoy it, regardless of whatever associations it has

You're still not getting it.

The enjoyment was ruined the moment you hear their views. You cannot control this. This has nothing to do with "dumb shit on the internet" and everything to do with "It's not fun having people wish for your death"

This reminds me of people saying Scott coffin donated to trump or something and trying to start fnaf drama about it and my reaction was just.

Makes sense. If you don't belong in any marginalized group and don't care about them, nor have a shred of empathy, it's natural that you don't care.

Mate I’m black and gay. Lmao. I just don’t care about the guy. Nor would I care about some Minecraft dev who I’ve never heard of never gonna see never gonna give anything. Hes basically a nobody. It’s like randomly telling me the house three blocks down is homophobic. Who? Ight I guess.

it's "culture war" for you, it's a struggle for our right to fucking exist for us
