I must've missed the original empress' rant. Anyone know where to see that?

I would've appreciated a trigger warning on the post since it uses a slur, but wow, it is amusing (I'm sure it'll be less amusing once I experience more overt transphobia).

Ok, trigger warning

Am I doing this right?

What the fuck? First they call out Empress for actually being a man from Bulgaria. Then they drop a transphobic slur. Then they defend DRM and publishers.
I can understand supporting the developers and promoting buying software you enjoy when you can. But one of the big motivations for cracking software is software preservation and removing DRM that harms legit user experiences. So I say again, wtf?

I'm at least somewhat proud that Skidrow managed at least a halfway decent snapback at Empress.
