This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Small typo under the Jeff Dee entry:

You have:

Monkey House Games/Jeff Dee: Activist. If you are republican or conservative or Christian this awesome dude hates you for being an asshole.

You're missing a word after this.

I fixed it. You're welcome.

Huh hating people based on their religion and political affiliation. Don't we have a word for people like that.
<snip>
depends on which one

If someone's political belief is that black people's votes shouldn't count and they decide to cover the supression of minority vtes by calling it election security based on outright lies about voter fraud by foreigners then yeah, that is something that is worth reviling without word refering to *prejudicial* dislike applying.
Almost no one honestly believes that black people's votes shouldn't count. But someone like that should be disdained, if you can find one that isn't a Strawman.

Personally I think the list would be more universally useful if it had one additional category for game systems with alt right leanings like frog god games and SJGames so people who want to know the political situation of RPGs can be fully informed.
Being not Woke doesn't make one Alt Right. I haven't seen anything about Frog God Games that makes them Alt Right. They have a senior leader who got out of line with a female guest at a convention. That may make him a boor, but that doesn't make the company Alt Right. The idea that SJG is Alt Right is laughable.

The idea that these companies are Alt Right because they aren't Woke is the kind of Manichean thinking I'd expect of a cult member.

The accounts between what actually happened at the convention vary significantly between what the accused and the accusers indicated actually happened. The attitude that we should simply ignore and insult the accusers is *very* alt right.
In terms of people not believing black votes should count there is *significant* documentation that the redrawing of voting districts in Republican gerrymandering was primarily based on such a viewpoint, in papers turned over by the lead researcher designing the gerrymanders that was turned over to the courts and media by his daughter when he died, and the language behind the current Big Lie is clearly at minimum based in xenophobia which is, fundamentally, the root of racism.
Furthermore there clearly *are* alt-right groups. Similarly there are groups with alt right leanings. When Pepe the frog has been labelled as a hate symbol by both the southern poverty law center *and* it's original creator who deplores what it has become and Steve Jackson representative ban people from their forums for pointing this out I would say that is a clear indication of alt right leanings.
Now yes, it is clear that most people on this forum would likely back the 1/6 insurrection before they would give Nancy Pelosi the time of day that does not mean that I hate the list- I find it useful for the opposite reason that most here do, I just believe it could be made more useful.

There's nothing unique and protected about the list here. Take it as a starting point and build your own mirrored version off of it. Put it up on another thread here if you like as you're voice is allowed thr same freedoms here as Occule.

So you don't know what the Alt-Right is, or what they stand for...

Let me explain it to you: They are white ethnonationalists.

IF voter ID is racist then México is racist as fuck since we all have one.

As for the PLC and pepe the frog...

Bwahahahahahahahahahahaha

SJG bans political activists from it's forums? I didn't know that, good for them, this makes me more willing to give them my money.

1) I didn't say that voter ID is racist, there are different forms of voter ID, and there are many states where the specific forms of voter ID allowed or required demonstrate a definite racial bias, and those states are heavily Republican in their legislative bodies.

However my main point here is on the second statement- having this information on the list as a fourth category would be more useful to both of us, despite our divergent views- you would be more likely to buy their products, I would be less likely. Better informed works better for everyone.

And FYI, alt right *openly* racist organizations were largely behind the 1/6 insurrection attempt. There are a lot of alt-rightish activities which are far less honest, potentially even with themselves, such as the whole gamergate scandal which demonstrated the heavy involvement of alt right politics (which includes sexist attitudes, not just racist, and other related viewpoints) in gaming culture.

Bill and Hillary Clinton are alt-right?

To steer this back into the gaming arena, hiring an all-female creative team for your core gaming product is alt-right?

Admit it.  You're just trolling.
