“At least call them afro puffs if you have to Animal Crossing Bells put on them,” says Animal Crossing fan Morgan, who has been enjoying the new update.

“So these humans appropriated a hairstyle and renamed it so they may fake it’s now not a black fashion,” she persisted in a Twitter message. Morgan advised Polygon that due to the fact that writing a tweet in which she asked people to prevent calling them space buns, she’s gotten confused by means of users who factor out that she has pronouns in her bio, among other matters.

This is simply the modern battleground for observers who may not have any stakes inside the large Animal Crossing community. To wit, one moderator of Buy Animal Crossing Bells the biggest Animal Crossing network at the internet advised Polygon that, of their boards, fanatics in large part observed the difficulty respectfully, even though they disagreed with each other. Rather than becoming a firehose of harassment, discussions at the puffs dwindled away quite quickly.
