NexusMods has banned a Starfield mod that permitted players to removed pronoun options from the game.

Nexus says that whilst the mod's removal was "not a political statement or an alignment to one side or the other in the culture war", it reserved the right "not to host" the mod on its platform.

"Hosting this mod was not for us and it is certainly within our rights not to host content on our platform,"

NexusMods told 404 Media.

"It's not a 'political statement' or an 'alignment to one side or the other in the culture war'. We stand for diversity and inclusion in our community and the removal of diversity, while appealing to many, does not promote a positive modding community."

"A reinforcement that this has been the best course of action has been some of the hatred, vitriol and threats of violence coming from a very, very small minority of the community. Frankly, we are not sad to see them go."

I find it more offensive they claim it's not political, while listing several political reasons they removed it, than it actually being removed. People are entitled to their politics, but lying about it to appear neutral instead of partisan is deceptive. Nexus Mods is culturally leftwing in terms of content it allows - own it.

No one's forcing NexusMods to tell the truth nor to stop being dishonest.

Their persecution over the spiderman US flag modder is another proof of that.

Remember when they banned a modder for releasing a Spider-Man mod replacing Aplphabet flags with US flags. Pepperidge farm remembers.
