    It’s the satanic panic all over again, once again being pushed by Christian extremists.

      Well look how that ended for them D&D is huge, BG3 and fantasy adjacent media is beloved, paganism and the like are growing, and gender roles are melting.

        Don’t forget the heavy metal, which was also a target and now more popular than ever

        But yeah fuck those assholes. Real patriots believe all their countryfolk have the right to live as they choose.

        the Internet is flourishing with femboys and fursonas

        once the moral panic around trans people fade (hopefully I’ll be alive to see it), what will be left behind in peace will hopefully be a bunch of institutions that were able to thrive on that pride despite all the pushback

        You do understand how many people were burned alive so you get to dick around with your friends in D&D - right? It hasn’t exactly been seamless.

          You can literally say that about anything but specifically acting like people died so we can play d&d is a fucking laugh. C’mon.

          Democracy, wages, freedom of speech, weekends, anything and everything in history people have died for lead up to this. I don’t take your comment seriously at all.

            Yeah it’s because you’ve never been at risk of being thrown in a fucking fire for saying anything remotely ‘not Christian’.

                Seriously?

                Are you seriously sitting here, right now, telling me that someone has threatened to burn you alive for being wiccan or LGBTQ+?

                Edit: yeah I didn’t fucking think so

                    No. You need therapy, not only that - a fucking history lesson. People were literally killed so that you can be this fucking stupid.

                    Oh so you’ve been threatened to be burned alive?

                    Or are you just fucking lying? Willing to bet money on the second.
