in this case its the players. there were multiple complaints / discourse Moments about how the battlelisks resemble cockfighting and how its offensive. not sure why this specific one is suddenly worse than the other historically accurate references to violence. i definitely feel that some of it is people concern trolling because they're mad about UMA gore/blood rules and want to force the staff to be more PG.
Do you mean removing the cock fighting reference? Because uh. Even if cultures still practice it that doesn’t make it not animal abuse. There’s a reason alternatives to bull fighting happened, to preserve the harmless (well, mostly. Still really dangerous for the person) part of the practice without it still being cruel. Bloodless bull fighting is basically all the showing off without any of the horrible prolonged death (or any death. Which means bulls can actually be used more than once)
It’s not like saying its cruel to raise x species as livestock or cruel to hunt x species. There’s practices that can either be updated to be less cruel or practices that should be dropped in general because there is no way to make it not cruel.
