I'm genuinely curious so sorry if this comes across wrong, how is the original hateful? I know MAGA hats are hateful but this is a completely different style and SDV was released before trump even got elected the first time, before MAGA was really even a thing (not even counting the production phase) i dont feel great about ConcernedApe being accused of hate with an innocent red hat. maybe im inferring incorrectly though sorry again
MAGA hats are not hateful though. Are there hateful people that wear them, sure, but that is not what they represent and classifying entire groups of people as "hateful" or "evil" because of a small percentage of the group, is in and of itself very hateful.
We should be encouraging civil discussion to get to the bottom of what ideas are good or bad rather than putting divisive and dehumanizing labels on people because they voted a certain way.
hmmm. well not sure if it was you or nexus, but thank you for not deleting my first comment here or banning me from commenting on your mods. all i wanted to do was have a discussion and respectfully talk with folks and share my thoughts. i understand it is not 100% on topic but given the mod and its insinuation i think it is fair that these things would get brought up.
either way, thank you for creating this mod even if it is not for me, and thank you for not completely alienating folks who may disagree in one way or another. if others respond to my comment i would like to continue the conversation, but regardless i respect ya and thank you again for not outright banning me from commenting.
@120gbs This is a massive oversimplification and misinterpretation. Its like the drugs and medicine definitions. All medicine are drugs but not all drugs are medicine. is everybody who likes the confederate flag a racist? No. Do all the racists like the confederate flag? Yes. Same with MAGA. Are there people who want to kick those illegally in the country out because they hate them? Yes. Are there people who have thought in-depth and looked into the implications of letting anybody come in and are voting for the guy putting a stop to that and sending people back? Yes.
It is not racist to do what literally every other country has done and does do for all of history with their borders to prioritize the safety of their people. Fun thought experiment, imagine how many Russian or Chinese special forces operatives have come over. I mean really, why would these adversarial countries not send operatives over when it was so easy for them to get thru the border?
@JustinEnigma I would argue your thought that it is a large percent is based on believing what others tell you rather than seeing for yourself.
I think the best way to know that you are correct is to challenge your own beliefs. Honestly and truthfully try to prove yourself wrong. Enter into the spaces of your opposition and see what they say and think about others.
I think MAGA is generally more pro free speech and therefore prone to use rude or blunt language, I'll give you that one, but calling it how you see it is very different from lighting things on fire, shouting in peoples faces, calling for harm to people because of their words or beliefs, etc. and I have never seen anything like that from the MAGA crowd but see that shockingly often from opposition to MAGA. Vaush, Destiny, and Hasanabi come to mind as people who have clips of wishing death, justifying death, or laughing about the death of their opposition. Never seen hate like that from MAGA.
If you are interested in seeing what right-wing people actually say rather than listen to interpretations or summaries provided to you by those who want you to dislike right-wingers, I suggest checking out some of the following people on youtube:
MentisWave ( Hoppe Libertarian ) John Doyle ( Far Right Catholic ) Don't Walk, Run! Productions ( Right-Wing Media Analyst )
Worst case you get a better perspective and maybe change your mind on some things, best case you solidify that your assessment is correct and that a large percentage of MAGA is hateful.
If you're interested, a little tweak of your code to add FromArea and ToArea co-ordinates would make it compatible with other mods that change hats. All you'd need to do is change your code to this: { "Action": "EditImage", "Target": "Characters/Farmer/hats", "FromFile": "assets/nomagahat.png", "FromArea": { "X": 40, "Y": 240, "Width": 20, "Height": 80 }, "ToArea": { "X": 40, "Y": 240, "Width": 20, "Height": 80 } },
And you can also edit the hat's name and description to say pink instead of red with this if you want: { "Action": "EditData", "Target": "Data/hats", "Fields": { "38": { 1: "An eye-catching cowboy hat in pink suede.", 5: "Pink Cowboy Hat" } } }
Thanks! Really appreciate you sharing this. Our team has made a handful of mods but each one is definitely a chance to learn a little more about how to make them better and we're so thankful for the Stardew modding community being so supportive.
