My Life As A Gamer: The Pundit Talks Ravenloft Going Woke & Other D&D Convergence

The RPG Pundit cut a video yesterday on the latest round of Wizards of the Coast converging D&D as fast as they can.

The big red flag here is the push to not only muddle, but remove, Good and Evil from the game. The surest mark of an evil cult is the denial of objective reality, and the goal of denying objective reality is to deny objective spirituality--morality--and that means denying Good and Evil.

What the Pundit refers to as Year Zero is taken from Chinese Communism and its Red Brigade phase that deliberate destroyed Han culture to make way for Mao's total brainfucking of the population, and part of that destructive spasm was the denigration of objective reality- the consequences of which still being felt to this day. Pundit's citing of Satre and Pol Pot is another example of the same impulse and its consequences.

You don't have to kill the people to destroy them.

You need only sever them from their roots, seal them off from the outside (literally or metaphorically), and lay on the mindfucking until they break; if they don't, steal their children, who are defenseless, and turn them into the weapons that knife their parents in the night for the Evil Cult.

Remember that the Death Cult is a Christian heresy; their dogma, and therefore their actions, are predictable once you see this since all you need to do is see their claims as inversions of Christianity and you'll know what they fear and often why they do so.

Fortunately, tabletop RPGs are stupid-easy to acquire that aren't riddled with the poz of the Death Cult. Chief among them being earlier D&D editions, such as where Ravenloft originally came from, and they remain available to this day and they are just as playable now as they were decades ago when original published. Captain Harlock can hook you up with files if you like, and those you can use to make your own print copies via POD, so don't despair over either finding print copies or giving money to people who hate you.

Tabletop RPGs don't rely on Muh Officialdom. Play the older editions. Play non-pozzed alternatives. Whatever you choose, play the game properly and make certain that your fantasy gaming--and that includes horror and science fiction--has a firm grounding in objective reality- and that means objective morality.
