Neither do they have a right to a platform, hence, deleted off of the platform.

    Exactly this. Play the game you want, but that shit shouldn't be platformed.

    It's honestly surprising to me the bigots haven't set up their own mod hosting site. They've done it for everything else when they've been told that they're asshats.

    It's free to host a mod on github. Mods like this and the pride flag remover for Spooderman are just trolls seeking attention and outrage, so they have to make sure to be very visible and find-able. Nexus has no obligation to host those files and if the modders actually wanted to play the game with the changes (and enable others to do so) it's totally possible to do that without Nexus. They upload to Nexus (which has a clear policy against this) so that they get exposure when "journalism" reports their mod being deleted (since talking about this is free Engagement™)
