1/ So many thoughts on this, but the tl;dr is that these gatekeeping dweebs can go screw themselves with a +5 Vorpal Longsword. Dungeons and Dragons and tabletop roleplaying games more generally are wonderful, and it's brilliant that more people are getting to experience them.

Interesting review of what the article has as evidence of this. Mostly quotes taken out of context and low level social media accounts. bsky.app/profile/mich...

Even by the standards of anti-woke journalism this is lazy dreck. The first piece of "evidence" that older gamers are mad about wokeness is a random Reddit comment — that isn't a complaint about wokeness. www.telegraph.co.uk/tv/2025/11/2...

The Express and Daily Mail used to be the only ones who would write "BRITONS OUTRAGED BY..." quoting their own comment sections. Now Telegraph is doing it.

I used to look forward to a lazy Sunday with the Times over breakfast, and then then throughout the day to the Sunday roast in the pub. Not anymore.
