Homophobia, Serious Business.

The recent article titled "Homosexuals! Vote for Carlos!" is completely out of place, offensive, and harmful.

It is important to be careful when communicating on terms so sensitive as homosexuality. Articles likely written with no malice can still perpetuate the misunderstanding towards an already discriminated against group. The article implies that the presidential candidate, Carlos Bianachi, is a homosexual. The only plausible reasons to do this in an environment like eRepublik would be to detract or make jest.

Homosexuality is no joke and neither is it something that should be able to be used as a slur. The article is out of place and offensive.
