You're yet to sufficiently explain how this proves your assurance that they're fine with gay people.
Since that's what I was talking about, your responses have done little to qualify as anything but tangents.
Look at your own initial comment. It is very much my side or your side.
I'd response, but which initial response? My initial response to you? Because that would be a lie. You may infer that there are two sides, or only two sides, or whatever, but there was never any "my side/your side" argument there. And the biggest point was that you had no grounds to make these assurances any more than they had to declare homophobia.
Is the latter automatically my side because I disagree with you? Because it would seem you're the one inserting the "your side/my side" dynamic.
Even Shinji retracted his "with us or against us" claim.

Nintendo isn't obligated to be a social justice crusader.
I agree. Well, in theory. "Social justice" tends to just be an empty slur, but I'm assuming you mean they aren't required to fight for gay rights.
They never attacked homosexuality, and they never made a disparaging comment against homosexuals.
Who said they attacked homosexuality?
They're basically just refusing to weigh in on the issue. That's not the same as being against homosexuality.
Opting to not weigh in by choosing to retain the status quo is still for the status quo and against change. Before you lay into me on that, I'm not the one claiming that this connects to homophobia. Well, except within a limited context of entertaining someone's claims.
So they remain silent on the issue.
I already talked about that. In the post you're quoting. please don't make me repeat myself again.
You, just now. You're criticizing them for marginalizing the homosexual community.
How is that "with us or against us?" So far, all you've established is that there is "with us, against us, or not helping." That's three sides, minimum.
They're little more than a kids toy company, they just want to make fun family games and not go bankrupt.
Awesome, but irrelevant.
Also, RatherDull, in the post directly before your own...
The one I've addressed like three times now as not being in itself "with us or against us?"
The one I quoted before you made this response?
Yes, I'm aware.
