[QUOTE="Eric V, post: 8031581, member: 6779717"] Ugh. It's objective that they are reporting themselves as offended. "How offended are they, really?" is just a gross question. Time to stop interrogating people of color when they report their lived experiences of prejudice (whether major or microaggression), and instead authentically listen to their accounts in an effort to try and do better. If WotC tries to do better by no longer having anything to do with OA, great. To continue to make money off the tone-deaf work, in 2020, is completely unnecessary. In another post, I said all active links to a current PDF of OA can now contain a message from WotC describing how it's a tone-deaf piece of work, written by North Americans with virtually no input by any East Asian people containing stereotypes hurtful to the communities mentioned and how they will try to do better. Done. Place in history, assured. No one is making money off of the Indian Removal Act. No one is using it to play out scenarios wherein the adventurers remove Indians from their homes. No one is using it in games with people of Indian descent. Its place in history is fine. Honestly, that was a really terrible comparison, no offense. [/QUOTE]
