Lmao, it doesn’t make them look weak. It makes them look strong – standing up against subtle bigotry and dogwhistles despite potential backlash?
I’d say that’s strong.
Someone trying to make a mod (that reproduces built-in functionality) to use as a platform to essentially promote racism? That’s incredibly weak. It screams “I can’t handle people or companies being more socially aware than me”.
And then whining about it on social media? That’s also weak. Host it yourself (not you specifically) if making that mod is so important to you.
But punching down is never “strong”. It’s always weak. That mod is punching down. Making that mod is punching down. Wanting or using that mod is punching down. Weak.

Does it make NexusMods look bad?
I’d say a lot more people would look down on them for keeping it up there.

Why use the mod at all when you can just use the launch command to disable it?
