Because according to you if a DM has any preferences or restrictions on what is allowed in your game they're demanding totalitarian dictatorship because they have a clear picture of how their world works.When I'm DMing I'm not just one person's DM, I'm the DM for the entire table and myself.  I'm doing the best I can to be accommodating but I'm also deciding lore, mythology, feel and tone of my world. I don't particularly care for anything goes or collaborative world building* for my main campaign world, I've had several people over the years tell me that it's one of the reasons they accepted my invitation.If you get invited to my campaign it will include my handful of restrictions and house rules, along with a link to a wiki with access to a ton of world lore I've generated over the years, some of which I've probably forgotten.  If you can't accept that I don't want to run games with evil characters, that I have a list of allowable species, that I want to wait until we have a session 0 before you come up with a character and that I want you to create a character that will fit with the group? Then I'm not the DM for you.  Speaking of backgrounds, they're largely up to you but I expect you to with me to figure out where your character comes from and ensure that the background doesn't contradict established lore and assumptions.  If that doesn't work, keep looking for a game that does work for you and good luck.</blockquote>
