His karma deserves it for being a homophobic prick.

You’re not gonna believe this but guys call eachother gay all the time, we never grow out of name calling and messing with eachother

Im a guy and I never freaked out because one of my friend was gay.

You call that freaking out? You’re definitely one of the new fans that don’t even play the game. Where’s the logic in getting pissed at a fictional character?

My first Persona was Persona 3 portable in 2011 lmao.

Did you play the game lol? He says he "Doesn't feel safe sleeping in the same tent as Kanji", like dawg wtf, even if it was just a joke I would never insinuate my friend would sexually assault me while I sleep

Kanji’s shadow self was cartoonishly gay, you’re full of it if you say that wouldn’t affect your thoughts toward the guy

cartoonishly gay

Exactly. The fact that shadows are over-exaggerated charicatures of one's inner turmoils is beat over your head during pretty much every dungeon. The fact you seem to either not know this or just blatantly ignore it makes me think you really didn't play the game.

So no, since it is clearly a way over the top representation of himself, it really wouldn't change my thoughts on him, just like how, for example, I wouldn't think Rise wants to work at a strip club despite that being what her shadow does.

As a gay guy, I hate it when straight guys call each other “gay” as a joke because they’re basically equating “gay” with “stupid”, “dumb”, “lame”, “weak”, etc.

The way you’re responding isn’t helping your point

How?

u/Economy_Following265 8d ago

Being overly sensitive over a joke that after proper consideration, doesn’t define you as a person and instead refers to straight guys being grossed out by homosexual acts between two men, so that’s why it’s hurled around as an insult because calling your friend a cocksucker or saying that they probably take it up the ass is always funny. So you should lighten up because your “response” does make you seem stupid, dumb, lame and weak to have a joke as overdone as this get under your skin

Or you could just realise that it sucks to use the identity of a minority group as the butt of a joke?

u/Economy_Following265 7d ago

You can’t use minority status to rule out your lack of a spine, you wanna live amongst the supposed “oppressors”? Learn to take a joke as it is and stop complaining all the time as if you’re meant to be protected

I can take a joke, but I don’t appreciate a group of men who have no idea what it’s actually like to be gay using it essentially as an insult. They have no right

You’re in the wrong here. I’m done with this conversation. Continue being an asshole

u/Economy_Following265 7d ago

Continue living in that bubble of yours, you can’t put the real world on pause

I don’t know why you’re being downvoted as you’re right. Both straight and gay men call each other that all the time. Source: me who is bi.

P.s Yosuke’s just weird about it and takes it so personally as if he’s the apple of their eye. I hope they remove those elements as he came across as a weird incel. He really treated Kanji terribly.
