Free Playstation 4 PS4 theme to celebrate pride month .
Do you have an intelligent point to make or are you going to whinge? The slogan is, gaming for everyone with a rainbow, yet you weak people are acting like you have to take a 12 inch dildo up your arse, get over yourself and let some people have a rainbow background without crying yourself to sleep at night.
You have no argument so you have to deflect with butch vulgarity. Please change your Avatar to Cringer.
@[Deactivated]: You don't have a valid argument, they are saying "For ALL the Players".
@FabMan: I'm a prudish gamer and proud. My right to not know about the freak-on foibles of other videogamers outweighs their right to overshare their exhibitionist bedroom misadventures on me. It's a violation of my prudish identification and sullens my total experience. The worst.
@[Deactivated]: Those who choose a life of celibacy do not have the right to expect others to hide themselves to protect their feelings. It is fine to be prudish, it isn't fine to be expect that others to be ashamed of who they are or to expect them to hide who they are. I do not care for public displays of overt sexual activities, but a rainbow background and PlayStation welcoming all gamers to their platform should not be frowned upon.
If I said I'm straight and that I have two kids, does that instantly make you think of my bedroom antics? If not, why would someone saying they are gay make you think of that, it doesn't me. If it does, well that is a hardship you have and I'd suggest a professional might be able to help you if you want it.
@FabMan: I also identify as peripherally night colour blind, if I squint.
@[Deactivated]: Do you want a specialised theme?
@FabMan: Nah, I'm good. Cat onesie Mario on the 3DS. Can you feel the heterosexuality?
@[Deactivated]: Hmmm…
@FabMan: Fluid-phobe! Ellipses are passive aggressive hate speech. So condescending.
@[Deactivated]: My shame!
@FabMan: "a rainbow background…welcoming all gamers to their platform should not be frowned upon."
cept if you are atheist, or christian or muslim right?
Then it is not welcoming but insulting and discriminating against their views and faith.
At what point did PS ever discriminate against LGB-TIQ+ people..or ever suggest they weren't welcome?
Never? So why the need to say they are 'all inclusive' now..when they always were.
Oh that's right…virtue signalling.
Yes..his point is you only accept this because it is to your agenda mr 'fab' man. If Playstation supported Feminism, hetrosexuality, or any other legal and legitimate group you would arc up and cry foul and complain that they are discriminating your precious selves.
"I'm a straight white male and I don't feel threatened by a colourful theme that I don't have to install. I can see why there is a pride month."
With a unique avatar name and picture. Hmmm….obviously either lying or wanting to promote and push the LGB-TIQ+ agenda.
Imagine if Playstation put up a Muslim theme? You'd be ok with that? Genuinely? Would you be ok with a beastiality theme? Because that's just a sexual preference…like LGB.
No? Well then maybe think about why it's ok to put up a theme specific to sexual preference.
Why are you defending this tooth and nail? You have like 15 posts in here.
Free themes are NOT bargains. They belong in the forums. A terrible company taking advantage of gay pride month to boost their social image is NOT 'brave'.
Why can't you ignore the non-complying to install theme? Did you ask JV why he was complaining about it so much?
Can you explain why it wasn't criticized last year, or the other free themes aren't criticized for trying to boost their social image? Their intention behind other free themes is the same as this, to gather good will. Yet this one caused people to be offended, I think you snowflakes should just ignore it.
I will be ignoring the theme. But, what part of IT ISN'T A BARGAIN do you not understand?!
Idk - I don't remember posts for free Playstation themes that happened over a year ago. If you do, then I suggest you re-evaluate your priorities in life.
We're the snowflakes? Mate, you're in here arguing with like 20 different people over some pure ridiculousness - pushing your own social views onto other people.
If other people don't buy into the whole LGTBQICNSDJ whatever movement - who cares? Why is that your prerogative to debate that? That doesn't change the fact that THIS ISN'T A BARGAIN!
@pharcyde: You asked me a question, so don't get upset I gave you an answer. What part of asking a question netting you an answer do you not understand?
You could have ignored me and this post, or limited your complaint to 'This isn't a bargain', but you didn't. You asked me a question and you also added your own political agenda to it by complaining about PlayStation / Sony and their intentions.
People don't have to buy into it, they can ignore it since it doesn't attack anyone, the slogan is very inclusive 'For ALL the Players'.
Get over it or ignore it, but don't expect your comments not to be commented on.
"I can see why there is a pride month."
Yeah. All these people getting so upset and worked up over this (including the see-through 'how is this a bargain?' and 'Sony don't care' crowd) are just illustrating why something like Pride Month exists. I mean, it's just a simple theme and so many people on here are somehow risking heart attacks getting so worked up and upset over it.
There's a level of lunacy going on in these comments that I previously would've guessed was a relic of the past. I mean, I understand gay people still have hardships and a long way to go, but to have this sort of insane reaction to a PS theme, in this place, is real surprising to me. I never would've guessed that something like this, in this day and age, could upset people so.
On the other hand though, it's not like the upset people are making intelligent, well-articulated points. There's no scientist chipping in here with their outrage. For the most part, they all sound like trashy garbage people that you'd cross the street to avoid. I wager these are the same scumbags that do burnouts up and down the streets, steal and just generally make life worse for others. The outage is at first surprising but then you think, yeah, the scum of society of course has access to computers too…
No scientists, huh. lol. Would you recognise one if you met one? What's the maximum volume of a unit quaternion?
(I think you mean 'outrage' rather than 'outage', but still quite funny, closet wise.)
I don't think we need to hear more opinions from cis white males like yourself.
unless they share my opinion, then it's totally OK
I love this argument, with lots in society.
LGB-TIQ+ have a go at literally ANYONE that goes against their agenda…even people that are LGB-TIQ+.
It's a joke. Yes you are gay, but you have no right to be against the LGB-TIQ+ movement.
Yes you are trans…but you have no right to be against us demanding equality at the cost of other groups.
Don't care what the theme is, but how is this a deal? Was it a purchasable item previously? I thought this was always free.
Sony is a Japanese company, Japan being a socially conservative country. Can someone please find this free pride theme on the Japanese PS Store:

Looks like wokeness might have regional lockouts. Maybe it's hiding in all the hentai.
A 'free theme' is now a bargain? Do you realise what hell awaits on the other side of these floodgates?
Would you support a Heaven's Gate or Scientology free theme. Would they be great deals? Is there an MGTOW or Milo Yiannopoulos theme?
If you recall, Max Mosley was stung by UK tabloids for his fetish of getting spanked by leather clad Nazi wearing dominatrices. Should videogame themes really have to cater to every sexual persuasion to demonstrate diversity and inclusion?
(Shouldn't Sony have been on strike on International Women's day to show support?)
