Its their space and no one has a right to be included in private space nor does anyone have an obligation to like, respect or even tolerate anyone else in that private space.   In fact  everyone will find it copacetic to stay out of each others ways. Anti Trans or Gay  or even Racist  gamers  don't need reeducation, they need to be left alone to their own space and if that space has no room for interesting differences, its on them. They aren't hurting you by excluding you and as i said, you don't have a right to inclusion. If they prefer MYFAROG to Blue Rose, so be it. On those grounds I'd like to prevent a TTRPG version of the underlying cause of the   Gamergate BS, For the love of dice, do not try to hijack other peoples resources for your political agenda when a lot of people in the tangential hobby don't share it or just don't care.Instead make the games you want and offer them to the market and knowing gamers you'll sell plenty.  Blue Rose sold very well because it was great end of story, take advantage of the low cost of entry to make  make great games and they'll sell. The only way for a free country or an open hobby  to work is when you run into unpleasant opinions re: gender identity ex roles, violence,  sexual preference, race and all that  the solution is to address the points with facts if you feel like it in any case accept that a lot of people have opinions you aren't going to like, won't change  their mind and there is nothing you can or should do about it,.  You don't need to police public discourse in gaming like some Stalinist putsch just say it like it as and let the  smart  people figure it out. I have  a lot of confidence in gamers to make good calls and you should too.  This is also why I have a serious issue with the guys at Evil Hat  pushing the satirical Gamergate card game off DTRPG, its shows they don't respect me to make my own choices, have no confidence in me or my fellows  and are willing to use economic muscle to make it harder for me to make those choices. This is the kind of conduct that is a direct insult and one   that leads to a closed off hobby instead of an open one. Green Ronin has to their credit never done that. That said if someone wants to buck the trends and chooses to make something that stands out like Blue Rose , Lou Porter or the others do, defend it, let your friends know as GR did  and let the market figure it out. As I said earlier, I am quite far right yet I own a complete collection of Blue Rose, That's what quality does. Its sells games which benefits everyone. .</blockquote>
