Replies were bombarded with harassment and enbyphobia, trotting out the usual, "Why did you say their? Is she a group?" talking point, like a wall of Buzz Lightyear toys repeating their stock phrase. Others ask how to un-back the project, some describe the announcement as a "threat," and then come the usual buzzwords: Erika Ishii is a "toxic activist," a "woke idiot," "Antifa terrorist," and a few blatantly racist descriptors we obviously won't repeat here. Understandably, Double Fine turned off the comments.

Voice actor for Atysu in ghosts of Yotei I believe. They identify as gender fluid and a believe has partner. Asian, LGBTQ, the two capital troglodyte chud capital "G" Gamers nerve popping trigger points...or at least that's what they're told should be their trigger.

They were also Ana Bray in Destiny 2

Because Jin Sakai is dead (it's centuries after Tsushima) and Suckerpunch chose to have a gasp WOOMEAHN be the main lead this time, chuds were told to be angry and threaten her because Erika represents the "woke" movement that their God emperor wants to erase permanently.

Cause they're all fucking goostepping Nazis
