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.

Quote from: Lychee of the Exchequer;1121817What truly saddens me is that Bledsaw II, by publicly proclaiming his twisted beliefs, has (probably) buried any hope in the future revision or creation of old and new Judges Guild products. Who would be willing to be associated with such a man ?

Agreed, this was one of my first thoughts on reading the OP.  Judges Guild was already facing some significant struggles (to say the least), Bob II's commentary doesn't help things at all.  I'm also very sad to see Bat in the Attic's Majestic Wilderlands line derailed by this.

No. I dislike Bledsaw's tweets, but he's free to be as stupid as he likes. I'm not going to jump on some RPG.net SJW pitchfork mob.
The notion of an exclusionary and hostile RPG community is a fever dream of zealots who view all social dynamics through a narrow keyhole of structural oppression.

Quote from: Lynn;1121806That one Bledsaw is a racist twat doesn't mean JG needs to be burned to the ground. He may be somewhat synonymous with JG now, but this certainly seems like the sort of revelation that SJW witch hunters like to turn into a fest of making you feel bad for enjoying what JG has historically produced.

Exactly. This incident has already got some comments on Tenkar's about how this one idiot is representative of the whole hobby.
I'm sure it won't end there.

Quote from: Slipshot762;1121781while insular and nepotistic to a certain degree they are far from unified and conspiring, their conspiracies rarely go beyond the nearest other jews they compete with for status within their own group. we are just not worthy opponents i guess.

I've said before I feel very left out if there are conspiracy meetings I am not being invited to. And as far as traditions go, disagreeing with each other is a very Jewish perspective. Ask two Jewish people their opinion about a controversial topic and you're likely to get three differing opinions. The idea that as a people we could even agree on a unified position to form a conspiracy around, about just about anything, seems preposterous to me. Nor do we have "leadership" really, as obviously that's not something we could agree on.

FWIW, DTRPG has taken down all JG material, except for the Necromancer Games bundle and Pegasus bundle.

I dont know if it is because of the Jews but Bob is not wrong that the Media hates Trump.

Seems like a storm in a tea cup to me.

Because pulling Caverns of Thracia will surely insulate us from the Nazi cooties of Jennell Jaquays.

Fucking morons.

Quote from: GameDaddy;11218152) Jennel Jaquays was in the original JG and she never would have worked for Bob Jr. or Bob III knowing their political preferences.
No, that was Paul Jaquays who died, and was later reincarnated as a woman in 2011.

Oops...spoke too soon. Now no JG material is available, and JG does not appear in the Publishers category.

It's not. He's said some very antisemitic things. Things which have nothing to do with Trump or the media. Would you like to see more of them, so you can see this is not a storm in a tea cup sort of thing? I am not exaggerating - there is some really bad stuff in there, and this is not about being a Conservative or a Trump Supporter - stuff which goes back before Trump in fact.

Someone needs to walk me through the chain of reasoning from "Bob Bledsaw II is an anti-Semitic loon" to "all Judges Guild material must be pulled from commercial distribution." Why does the one make the other a moral imperative?
