“Hasbro is totally justified in destroying a little kid’s letter, gaiz! She’s totally thinking of suing them for money like some entitled prick and not just making actual, honest to God suggestions!!”

Tumblr exists, nowadays feminism’s ideals are so utterly twisted people rally under its flag to fuck people up in the name of equality, a lot of people over-react over pretty much everything (like that kid that got 364 days of suspension at this school for having a leaf that looked like pot), that we live in an era of political correctness and social justice. Doesn’t that tell you something?
Also, nice strawman. I never said all that.
In any case, if you want this discussion to continue, lets do it over PMs, not in the comment section.

So how about distincting between the ones whose feelings are actually hurt for a legitimate reason and those who make up stuff and pretend to be hurt or who are just too sensitive and feel hurt over something that wasn’t actually all that bad?
Is it really so hard for you to distinct? So hard even that you rather have all people’s feelings hurt to not risk that you fall into the trap of people who just pretend that they have hurt feelings for their own gain?
While Hasbro’s reply was kind of assholeish, they are bound by law not to look at people’s suggestion/ideas, since they could be sued if they make something remotely similar to something they know exists, and was made by someone else.
Leaving that aside, its not the role of a corporation to protect someone’s feelings. Hasbro is not a person, nor an entity with feelings. If they (the corporation) look like a good, family-friendly company, then its part of their marketing moves, not a declaration of how they truly are.
And yes, if we cared about everyone’s feelings, then we wouldnt be allowed to say stuff because x person would get triggered, and y person would think we are racists. Even delusional people would have power over others since they could make up stupid reasons to be mad/sad and others would suffer from it.
Its a girl, a letter, and an assholeish reply. Nothing more and nothing else. Making it such a huge deal will only hurt the girl on the long run. I mean, better stay angry as long as possible than to understand that the world is not fair nor full of roses and that bad shit happens, right?
Edit: also, i suggest we tone it down with the name calling and condescending attitude. That hurts other people’s feelings and makes the mods sad.

i have to ask:
if you’re so concerned about that little girl’s feelings, have YOU sent a letter telling her it’s alright?
Not making others feel miserable by mean-spirited actions like that is everyone’s responsibility. You are just an ass if you willfully hurt people and believe that’s okay and right to do because “you aren’t responsible for their well-being”.
Apparently, you have no empathy and believe that showing empathy, even to the small extent that you don’t hurt others intentionally, means that you lose your autonomy.
But autonomy =! deadness. You can be autonomous and still care for other people.
I pity the way you think and feel bad for you for confining yourself in such a world that you create in your head.
Because a government that does everything in its power to protect someone’s feelings isn’t an authoritarian shithole that bans everything the moment someone says it makes them feel bad.
I can’t see anything wrong with that.
And no I’m not.
It is her child and therefore everything relating to that child is her responsibility not anyone or anything else.
Your choice is a hug box that is concerned with your feelings that protects you or being able to have autonomy, you can’t have both.
The ironic thing is you are talking like a dictatorial government, not me.
You sound like your average corrupt and dictatorial government.
Thanks for reminding me again why I hate this world.
A person’s feelings are unimportant in the grand scheme of things, stop emulating Tumblr.
Why wouldn’t I be?
That’s more the question I should have on my tongue (and I do, in fact) when I see someone saying that it’s okay to hurt someone as long as the law isn’t against it.
“ The crime of disposing of children’s dreams, and hurting their heart is especially severe”
that’s directive #6
Are you serious?
If I would own or be part of a multi-billion-dollar company like Hasbro, taking the risk to lose a few thousand dollars to win a very unlikely process that come back to the company with the next major product sale would be the least of my worries.
Little girl’s feelings are more worth than those few thousand dollars.
You sound like you’d be a great businessman.
“Hey guys, I just made a decision that could bleed money out of our company for no fucking reason! Surprise!”
I’m sure you know better than Hasbro does.
Well, they are 10, so that’s a pretty safe bet.
Doing that would only mean to explain her why not everything she wants to have for the show will also be in it. It does not resolve her emotional conflict over it that Hasbro destroyed her letter and her drawing and was telling her that, instead of being nice to her like she would have deserved it.
i was going more of the parents explaining to the girl that “they can’t please everybody because no one will be pleased if they grant everyone’s wishes/suggestions”
What I wrote is no sarcasm. I took your question and intentionally wrote the opposite of what you (probably?) meant, that her parents should only teach her that what Hasbro did to her wasn’t okay and that she has a right of compensation for that, as answer on it to explain that basically telling her “It’s legally okay, just deal with your hurt feelings!” would be wrong.
i’m kinda lost which ones are sarcasm and which ones are serious
That the company has done something horribly wrong to her by treating her like a legal paragraph instead of a human being with feelings, that they can sue Hasbro if that makes her feel better and that she should never ever let anyone make her believe that what Hasbro did to her was right because “legal reasons” and instead should do her best to fight cruel stuff like that?
Yes, they should explain her that.
While it is childish, I’ve rarely seen an actually child make that argument. And I’m an uncle eight times over.
“No one likes them” seems like a perfectly childish argument to me. And Trixie has been appearing more regularly in the Equestria Girls universe. And the girl drew a human Rainbow Dash instead of a pony one.
And so is asking to remove a character, that’s barely there to begin with, because “no one likes them.”
Asking for Trixie to be a regular character would be a much more brony-like request.
