Uh, ok, so if we're reducing characters to just being a bunch of pixels, we have to apply this to Dorian, Sera, Josephine, and Bull, too. Representation doesn't matter if we're just changing some pixels to like certain other pixels.
Or are they just CGI models when they're straight?
The argument regarding Dorian and Sera has fuckall to do with consent, though.
CGI characters cannot consent or fail to consent to modding. They can, however, provide representation for underrepresented groups. It's two entirely different things.
"Pixels can't consent" argument has also been used by people who wanted to see bisexual Sam and Steve in Mass Effect. Also, representation for who, exactly? Are we to assume that bisexuality is a lot like "turning some flags off" here and there?
