Starfields is one of the biggest games of 2023 – but it’s joined other recent games like Baldurs Gate 3 in being boycotted by conservatives because of the way it interacts with gender.

Good. Less jerks then.
You’d think so, but weirdly enough, conservative “boycotting” more often than not seems to include buying and engaging with the things they claim they’re not using.
Conservatives boycotting means they’ll buy something they wouldn’t buy otherwise and then bitch about it.
It’s bizarre.
Like with the Budd thing a while back, sure, they do in fact normally do buy some Budd, but when they got their panties in a bunch over the LGBTQ stance Budd took, they bought truckloads of it, to then destroy it. They still bought a shitload more Budd than they normally would.
It’s bizarre.
But in line with the rest of their behavior, since everything they do and say these days is completely unhinged.
Then it’s not an actual boycott and shouldn’t be reported as one. Media needs to be using more accurate language here. The correct term for this behavior is “bitchfest”.
