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.

Whole world is going to shit and even my escapes are being corrupted with politics one at a time.

You're not wrong, I made an account to thank you for making your list. I find myself checking it pretty frequently.  If I ever try to just go browsing for a new ttrpg product to try, it feels like the majority of the time that I find something all it takes is a slight peek into the game's creators to find that they actively hate me for various reasons.

Don at Wizard Tower Games has joined the woke (later in the video)...And then he claims that all of us idiots don't really know what "woke" means. Oh, and he says that the educational system is most definitely not grooming children because his wife doesn't teach that to her Kindergarten and 1st Grade classes. And he says we should accept gay and trans gendered behavior because that is a society norm now. "It's a FACT!" :-X

Yeah, just wanted to pop in the thread to thank Occule and the other contributors of the list. It makes it much easier to find which companies actively don't want my money.

Never heard of him or his game, but after watching most of that I can tell he's obviously a douchebag.  Just another game I won't be purchasing.

In the original post where Ocule is maintaining the list, they are currently listed under Green. The entry currently says "Wizard Tower Games (Open World RPG) Stood against threats and openly stated they will not be censored or coerced"

That may still be true, but the video has clarified their stance on other positions.

And there's a good chance that the threat letter they received back then was from their own client trying to drum up attention.

Wow I've been doing some catching up, been working irl havnt had much time to hop online for gaming but I'm blown away by the ignorance out of Steve jackson games. I always knew them to be apolitical but I guess that's out the window now, this makes me actually pretty freakin angry because I love gurps as a game.
I had respect for the man, and his extremist view wasn't a bother.  His alex jones like ranting doesn't bother me either.  We're all different.  The donation to the Lilith Fund, I have a big problem with that.  The revelation was like seeing KISS without their makeup.  I have to do what's right and not support a game company I love, but I, for real, was saddened literally to tears.

Bedrock Games is definitely in the red zone. He published a game with an ethnically diverse transexual on the front cover. The author even brags about it.

Wait. Pundit also published a game with a non-white transgender character on the front cover. Does that change his status? As he expressed it,

QuoteI, the RPGPundit, strongly support minorities in tabletop RPG gaming. I have various minorities in my gaming groups. I also wrote Arrows of Indra, an RPG with a carefully-researched and detailed setting based on the mythology of a non-european culture. I guess I could also add that the vast majority of all my current players are latinos (and I'm half-latino myself).

I, the RPGPundit, strongly support the inclusion of all varieties of gender in tabletop RPG gaming. I have constantly and consistently given my ABSOLUTE AND UNQUALIFIED SUPPORT for the inclusive language about gender included in the new D&D rules.
I'll also note that my RPG, Arrows of Indra, featured a transgender character on its cover, possibly the first tabletop RPG to do so.

I, the RPGPundit, strongly support the inclusion of LGBT gamers in the tabletop RPG hobby. I have always welcomed LGBT gamers into my gaming group (by "always", I mean I've had LGBT gamers at my table since at least as far as 20 years back).

I'll note that I was practicing inclusion in my RPGs when it comes to gender and sexuality for years BEFORE WoTC got around to it. I have promoted gender and sexuality inclusiveness (and promoted gaming set in non-european cultural milieus) in the games I have actually written myself. In other words, I've not just said things, I've actually DONE things for inclusiveness in the gaming hobby.

Dylan's a troll. Despite his account age I'm not convinced he's not an account Battlemaster forgot he had.

Genuinely not sure if he's notable enough to make the list, but Jeffro should be Yellow minimum:

QuoteSecondly, the reason the authors I mentioned went from being universally admired to being very nearly unknown in a very short period of time was due to the efforts of a cabal of Jews, communists, homosexuals, and pedophiles.

Which casts a far less charitable light on this tweet:

QuoteSexism and racism are invented sins for the new religion of modernity that was architected to supplant the Christianity of the Victorian era. Anti-racism and anti-sexism are fake virtues for a godless people and replace the real virtues displayed in more serious literature.
