Sorry this is stupid all round. People are stupid for getting annoyed that you can set pronouns in a game, but Nexus are stupid for removing the mod that allows players the ability to if THEY wish to choose so.
Nexus just hosts the mod, if anybody is offended they could just not download it.
Hosting implies complacency. They have to draw a line somewhere, and the longer they wait, the harder it becomes. This was obviously a bigoted mod, and even though it could be considered "harmless" to leave up, it leaves the door open for further mods. These bigots will not stop slowly eroding away features they think are "woke", and they will only get worse and more egregious. Stopping them now, letting them know it's not acceptable behavior, is the only way to end it.
Hey bud, don't tell me how I should play the game I spent my hard earned money on. If I want to remove a certain feature I don't like, you and I both should have the freedom to do so.
You're still free to remove what you don't like, but you're not entitled to have the mod hosted on any site you want. The site owners decide that, and they don't want it on their site. That's not infringing on your freedom, but forcing it to be hosted on their site would indeed infringe on the site owner's freedom.
