Yes, it's one big instance of this:

This has been a thing in online tabletop RPG talk for decades, unfortunately. First it was a thing in BBSes, then in RPG groups on Usenet, then on forums (such as RPGNet, which is where ResetEra got its model for banning everyone that dares question The Narrative) and now on social media.

SJWs converged the most visible (and in a network-dependent media like TRPGs, visibility is viability is profitability) games such as D&D (and the company that just picked up, Wizards of the Coast) about 20 years ago. You just didn't notice the convergence until well past its critical mass because, like with comics and film/TV, the Death Cultists weren't in your face about it outside their hugboxes.

What is encouraging is that, outside those hugboxes, these SJW Death Cultists get shat upon good and hard with old-fashioned mockery and entirely deserved abuse. They decry this as bullying and gatekeeping. Let them. It's as I said before: either you hold the gates against them, or they will hold them against you.

It's also encouraging that most SJW-converged companies are little more than glorified hobby operations when talking tabletop, with WOTC and Paizo being the only ones that matter- and both are in danger of falling apart due to SJW incompetence damaging things beyond repair. Corona-chan isn't helping matters for them at all, and then there's the active resistance present in the Old School Renaissance as well as others not keen on SJWs ruining everything giving business-viable altenatives to the poz products.

And then there's Palladium Books, still soldiering on like it's 199X, and God bless 'em because at least they're consistent.

Hold those gates, friends. Let's not go the way of American comics, which is collapsing, and start actively pushing these poseurs out of our piece of the culture.
