Not the first time this has happened, it wont be the last either, although admittedly usually its about issues in the modding scene rather then issues irrelevant to it.

But at the same time, the only reason this was noticed was due to the popularity of the mod. Users with little power try and hassle mod authors into certain beliefs all the time because they don't like this feature or that feature. The fact that this time it has resulted in a political discussion instead of a legal or respect discussion as they normally do is somewhat irrelevant as far as I am concerned. This stuff happens unfortunately, and while we may not agree with it, we can at least try and understand what may have pushed the user to this action (as per the context provided by Thallassa) before passing judgement on them.

Edit: For all the people complaining that 'politics have no place in Skyrim modding' I feel I should point out a reminder that Skyrim has a questline that's fairly importaint in the game called the Civil War. And the situation in question that lead to this came from the comments of a mod called the CIVIL WAR Overhaul. There's mods on the Nexus that turn Ulfric into all sorts of dictators, and even one that turns him into Trump as well. I don't see you all protesting that sort of political statement or the politics in those mods. So before you post again, ask yourself if the issue really is the politics or if its just the fact that you don't like that this is simply more inconvenient for you that they chose this method. Because if its number two, I think the far biggest issue here is the fact that so many authors get effectively berated by users ASSUMING that we have an agenda when we as authors decide to include or not include certain features, and how draining that can be on a daily basis, especially for popular authors.
