       @selzero the author of this article probably tried SA role play in his latest group, got kicked out, now he's bitter.

       @selzero I'm just amazed the Torygraph knows what #DungeonsAndDragons actually is.

       @selzero I love the phrasing "long-time fans" as a way to say "old white men". But of course the headline wouldn't hit quite the same if they admitted that.

       @selzero it really is the "millennials are killing X" for cranks that hate queer people.

       @selzero I enjoy Stranger Things, but it's pretty blatantly dealing in nostalgia. It shows D&D as played by teens, mostly white, mostly boys, in the 80s. Is the "woke" part acknowledging that some of the players were not boys and not white Because I was 16 in 1987, playing D&D, and that's pretty accurate.If anything, the nostalgia is implicitly retrograde, looking back to role-playing games when the diversity of players was suppressed and the diversity of play styles was not as rich.

       @selzero actually, the article itself is really quite interesting! more about how the game itself has become a bit... well... orcses are just another society, for example.the commentary on "Native American role-play game Coyote and Crow" is fascinating!it seems the core complaint is that it is no longer PC to go around killing "monsters" and stealing their stash of 1d100 GP... and that has kinda killed the vibe.https://archive.ph/TqcS3

       @selzero People who talk about woke are Pedo Protectors. If theyre talking about hating "woke" - they're making sure you are not talking about President Epstein.If they pretend woke is an attack, its because their brother and sisters spent all thanksgiving asking when they will stop Protecting the Pedos.G.O.P.edo#gopedo #gop #woke
