This fiction makes me uncomfortable. This space makes me uncomfortable. How am I supposed to feel comfortable in every single place and every single space unless it caters to me forever and always, or until I get bored and move on. "Have you considered that maybe not everything is made for you?"

From the yt vid he linked, unsurprisingly featuring a troon:

The issue is [women] can't find people to relate to, and they feel like they may not be as accepted in that space...

This tranny correctly identifies the difference between men and women with zero self-awareness. No man has ever walked into a GW store thinking about how he is going to relate to the people in there. The only thing going through his mind is how to find an enemy to crush.

For the women, it is a social engagement and the tabletop is an after thought. For the men, there is a battle to be won. Friendships naturally follow from engaging in competition because that is how males bond, even the beta cucks.

Women should feel gatekept and awkward stepping into a GW store.

Also, he relates a story about a clerk asking the troon who he is there to buy for. Assuming the clerk mistook him for a woman, that is a good salesman. When I walk into a Bed Bath and Beyond, a woman will quickly walk up and ask me a similar question, and I feel relieved everytime. I don't know anything about lotion or candles. It's great to have someone telling me what I should be buying as a gift for a woman.

Sounds sus. How can you feel relieved when the question explicitely doesn't revolve around you and your feelings? You sure, that you are a woman?

It sounds sus because these stores are understaffed.

The issue is lefties don't understand that fiction can be literally whatever the hell it wants to be. If some process is male-only? So be it, it's written, so it shall be. These faggots leave nothing to their imagination, and they make us all suffer for their intolerance.

The problem is that these idiots don't see the problem in saying "Well, I can write an additional bit that means it's now political - my politics - and now it's canon!"

Cue possible evil laugh

And then wonder why, having quite consciously turned a hobby into a political choice, anyone who might interact with this hobby disappears off over the horizno.

Why don’t women get into Warhammer?

It's a fucking tabletop war game.

There isn't a single tabletop war game that women are interested in. Necromunda has an entire matriarchal faction of punk rocker chicks. Do you see women playing necromunda? No!

Why the hell would they choose one with a a 400 page rulebook that costs around $500 for a passable army?

Female space marines are not going to get women into Warhammer any more than SoB's and Eldar do.

The tiny handful of women who are interested in this stuff are so few that they are outnumbered by MtF trannies. Every single time I hear of a girl playing warhammer I automatically assume tranny, or the daughter of a single father. I am almost never wrong.

That's kinda the point. This is meta-gaming at it's finest - by selecting the player class of "Trans" you gain the ability to re-write any part of any codex by declaring it problematic.

I play Tyranid. Why aren't there alien bug-monsters that look and act exactly like I do?

The above complaint makes just as much sense as making space marines "inclusive".

Fans need to become openly disdainful of these cultural locusts to make them know they aren't wanted. Fans also need to get jobs in the companies so they can gatekeep them from the corporate world as well.

Games Workshop is pretty much a lost cause in this regard.

Their "Warhammer is for everyone" campaign pretty much showed they have chosen a side in the culture war-- and it ain't ours.

They have sided with losing money.

Warhammer is too expensive for the SJWs to replace the actual fans, who seem to be going the 3D printing route because of how scummy GW is.

This is why they tried to pivot to Warhammer+ and a subscription model, which failed.

I expect their next move will be transmedia appealing to the mythical 'broader audience' in an attempt to bolster their IPs so they can sell out to a media conglomerate.

I hope the execs responsible die in a fire.

I'm lucky to not be a warhammer fan (though I love the memes), because right now I'd be pretty pissed.

And here I thought no one could ever destroy the hobby more than Gav Thorpe did.

If I look through the tweets of Mr. Subverter here, will I find any complaints about the Escher?
