I love this, imagine completely borking your entire class balance for an RPG just to appease the SJWs. This is funny because maybe Larian Studios are going to cut the druid out of Baldur's Gate 3, they may well have to. Your daily reminder that it was never just about pronouns.
Hell, I semi-fetishize the idea of Paladins (mostly because Cecil Harvey was my first major RPG hero with a real story), but I don't go around being a merciless soldier of God, smiting heretics. Also, I didn't play the Paladin in Diablo 2 because he was black, I played him because he was a fucking Paladin. The way ethnicities are being fetishized now makes me think I could never go back to that.
In more recent years, probably. The Wiccan bullshit has its origins in some of the truly extra nutty feminist movements of the 60's and 70's.
Neo-druidism I expect is mostly an extension of larping and renaissance fairs. Likely the same with Neo-Hellenism, although at least that has some more fun and effort put into it.
Honestly if I'm going to have to pick gods to worship I'd probably pick Greek or Roman any day. I actually rather like the old school gods even when it comes to Paganism because they're representations of something we see all around us every day. You guys are right though that it's often just larping leftists that get into this and they're cringey as fuck.
I don't blame people looking to the past for guidance It depends on the person how that turns out. If you were a nutty feminist, well you probably did it wrong.
Wiccan and new age is pretty much all women, simps, and trannies. Neopaganism is much more male. The two get conflated all the time because they're both fake. I've only known one neopagan who observed any serious rituals, and while I don't think he believed sacrificing a chicken would actually accomplish anything, if you're willing to trudge through the woods, in the nude, in winter, to sacrifice an animal, I can at least recognize the effort.
It's funny but how else are they going to deal with it? LOL the druid grove is such a big part of the story too, if they cut out a chunk of that content the story is going to be an absolute mess even by general standards.

It's even more pathetic when they're trying to appease to super niche, new-age pagan religions. Ones who probably don't actually give a fuck anyway.
And probably half the people who join those groups only did so because they played D&D and thought it sounded cool to "become a druid in real life".

It’s almost like you don’t object to black people unless they’re acting like violent belligerent low IQ race hustling ghetto trash.
Fucking casual.
;-P
Deus vult intensifies....

You've made clear you haven't read a single book on the topic. It's a heavily male dominated field.
Seems its mostly females that take up the new age pagan stuff. Usually they take it up because they think they can use it to cast spells or curses.

It's all men I'm award of. And, even on Reddit it's all men who think it's, " sex magic" to become trans.
There are people that just look for excuses to complain. In the legal system it has a name, and all the ones that are well known happen to be men.
Go look at Afroman's case update for an explanation.
Most of the stuff like this is an attempt to get women into hobbies that they couldn't care less about.
Not necessarily done by women, but definitely for women.
No more bear fucking?
