Yeah, apparently some people caught bans at TBP for pointing out that most of the villains were lizardman tribes or something and got accused of spreading coded racism or some such nonsense (because apparently to the woke lizard people = Maori) and banned even more for questioning the ridiculousness of that ban.
To be clear, it was not about mythic Polynesia, but Monster Island, and it was clarifying that the “savages” were lizard people and not human, and that it mentioned you could switch them to human if you wanted, and that I was specifically not commenting on the racism of that. Also that the nationality of the names might be viewed as Europeans as they were puns on European names, but no actual nationality or skin color was discussed.
Mythic Polynesia doesn’t have any lizard people in it I think (still need to finish reading).
