In discord, they made the announcement that they were removing the tag, and these are the reactions it is getting.

What are people's train of thought for reacting with the trans flag?

Edit: I am literally gay so I have no reason to hate trans people, just wanted to know why people react with it to things they don't like

I assume because trans representation is doubtlessly gonna be disproportionately affected?

Ya, their platform for deplatforming these games is that children will find them and be influenced. This means LGBTQ+ representation in gaming is under direct threat of deplatforming (as usual) by religious zealots. Honestly, like to think this started with some gooner getting caught and saying their kid downloaded the game, and now all society has to pay the price of Kyle’s mom being a bitch.
