One of their weirder things is the no tolerance for criticism of the Last Jedi. Even something as simple as "I didn't like it" will bring down a warning along with accusations of being an alt-right spy.

As though the supposed greatness of the movie validates their creepy cultish ideology.

Plus for good or for ill, that movie has kind of become a touchstone to people's political beliefs.

The ouroboros consumes again. Sorry Morgan, writing fantasy with a gay protagonist can't save you here.
 
They are so wrapped up in their Rorschach-esque idea of no compromise not even in the face of facts, that they cannot see that yeah in certain instances such as sports an tech trans people are costing women their own spaces that they had painstakingly built over the past fifty years.

Apparently any criticism of Star Wars is now a punishable offense, per the rules.

Oh, don't worry. They're not being censorious thought-police, it's like the whole "supporting Trump or any of his policies" thing. You can still be a conservative, you just can't... something something, don't worry about where the line is, we'll ban you if you cross it and then you'll know. Same with Star Wars now... Oh you can still talk about it negatively, until you can't, at which point you get the bullet. Er, ban.
 
Remember when Star Wars was just a movie about space and lasers and shit? It's sad to think that all it took was casting a female lead and giving Laura Dern purple hair for a classic movie series to achieve "smol bean" status in the eyes of dangerhairs and soyboys.

The whole affair is such a perfect encapsulation of why everyone on RPGNet is miserable. The endlessly fault-finding mindset, the endless wringing of hands about how everything is problematic, and everyone who criticizes this must be purged. For example, the following exchange about why Tolkien is problematic because orcs are irredeemably evil, therefore it's okay to kill them, which something something racism. With bonus explanation by pedophile Dan Olson!

This is what life is like in a social justice space. Endless surveillance. Everything is to be judged. Everyone is under suspicion. Everything you say is to be scoured, picked over, analyzed for any possible offense. Everyone’s a detective in the Division of Problematics, and they walk the beat 24/7. You search and search for someone Bad doing Bad Things, finding ways to indict writers and artists and ordinary people for something, anything. The same people who claim to want restorative justice are also a viciously judgmental moral aristocracy that thinks mercy, forgiveness, and due process are the tools of criminals.

I have never seen a site with so many mods begging to have the living shit beaten out of them in meatspace.
 
This is what a tabletop gaming forum looks like once they've run off all the people who actually played games. All that's left are the tabletop adjacent who don't actually play but they listen to gaming podcasts and tweet about how killing orcs is colonialist and problematic.

Wow. And completely passed over in that shitstorm of a 'conversation' was Tolkien's own dislike of characterizing all orcs as evil, as it went against his Catholic sensibilities and the idea that redemption could be achieved by anyone. But then, that would require some actual research of the man as opposed to jerking oneself off on RPG.net, wouldn't it? Nah, easier to go for the cheap dopamine hit of harassing wrongthinkers.

@Mola Ram is right. These people didn't get the shit kicked out of them enough. And that's coming from me, an unrepentant nerd and gaming addict.

Poor Keth's Years, though. Hope he didn't have too much invested in the site.
 
The autist vandalizing RPGNet's wiki is still going at it.

There were a whole bunch more, but they were just spoilers for the new Star Wars movie to piss of the mods.

I feel like reading The Crucible should be mandatory reading for these guys.
