"Remove all of them" implies a good question: what is "all" of them? All mods changing the models of characters? Changing the models of characters to make them more conventionally attractive? Less conventionally attractive? Changing the gender of characters? Changing men to women? Changing women to men? All mods that change skin color? Changing white skin to black skin? Changing black skin to white skin? All mods changing sexual orientation? Straight to queer? Queer to straight?

I think you should just allow everything, as long as it isn't associated with hate speech or discrimination. Which is exactly what's happening here.

All of them meaning all of the mods that clearly do things out of bigotry like turning black characters white, erasing gay characters, erasing trans issues, etc.

This isn't a particularly hard moral or ethical question to anyone who isn't trying to allow hateful content to spread.

Just checking, so if a mod was released that made a straight character gay, that would be fine, but one that made a gay character straight wouldn't be? Or would both be fine? Assuming no description for either, nothing but content.
