They are looking to replace race with species. This is kind of strange since I remember a lot of people saying this for a long time as it is more accurate then race.
The fact that they are considering it tells me that they are losing a lot of money and want a quick fix for all the "race" changes the woke are demanding.
There are 17 species of cottontail rabbits. Each can interbreed with the other 16, and as far as I know all combinations are viable. But this isn't considered a barrier to being considered different species because they aren't considered to do so 'often'. The 'can interbreed' definition is absolutely out of fashion, it interferes with creating new barriers to construction and industrialization.
Neandertal were fucked out of existence and yet no scientist seriously argues they are the species as us. Yet if we Jurassic Parked a few thousand of them up tomorrow, how many years do you think it would take before calling them a different species became a hate crime and got Ye kicked off twitter?
If we applied the same standards to humans, we'd probably have a few dozen species. I mean, christ, the 'unlikely to breed often' metric would let you make a case that Plenty of Fish users are a different species from Grindr users despite a complete overlap of territory and diet.
I often say, to those who think that orcs are a caricature of black people, that they can't be, because they have no racial bonus to thievery, they have a racial increase to strength which increases their ability to swim, and they are often very proud of their lineage and stick around to raise their children.
They have been losing money for a while, and have been looking to get more of that ESG money I'm assuming. Like most fantasy/sci-fi series that are rejecting their core audience in favour of progressive mercenaries who won't actually buy or play it.
Really? Because to me, it seems like woke are the only ones playing these games anymore. It's impossible to find a gaming group anywhere, online or off, that doesn't consist mostly of retarded leftists.
Yep. My group pretty much only lets in people after we have vetted them through other games like Red Dragon Inn (which we consider to be both a good ice-breaker and a good way of weeding out ultra-soy).
In all of my campaigns, there has been consistent themes of races be racist toward each other, egalitarian societies being exceptions, and always sticking to whatever my storyline is supposed to be with no consideration for how "woke" it is, just what is fun and what makes sense.
And of course, the only thing we care about in the rulebooks is guidelines. I dont even KNOW what the official Race lore is for DND, because I always go with my own campaigns lore. I have 3 different campaigns at the moment, and just as one example Orcs are different in all three of them.
The soy bugmen still play things like that and follow the progressive rules because they are slaves. I'm sure there are many progressives that play too, but usually they aren't too bad about it or the group would implode.
The good groups would all keep to themselves and don't have the need to be public about it, because it's a place for them to take it easy and express themselves.
Geeks and Gamers has setup a Guilded group (Alternative to Discord) for their Tabletop stuff and they've got a few games going there for fans and people just looking to play.
WotC has become quite the Albatross for Hasbro. The number of MtG decks coming out is hampering sales for them as it is limiting it's ability to get players. Doubling down on this SJW crap with D&D is making it sink fast.

"orcs are black-coded" meets "orcs are a different species than humans"
Man they really can't stop kicking themselves in the dick, can they?
In fairness, blacks wouldn't even be considered the same species if not for interbreeding.

But remember, around elves... watch yourselves.
Solid advice.
I thought elves were stand-ins for the chosen now? All thanks to Seth Rogen.

That's because the groups that don't want to be infiltrated aren't accessable to the outside world.

I know of one in particular that has strict admittance rules.
You have to make your own group. And it needs to be explicitly right-wing to keep out the retards. Which means you can't advertise it anywhere.
So basically you just need to know people irl already and get them into the hobby or try having a game with anons here or on RW twitter

That's my experience as well.

We should make the same change in real life.
