[QUOTE="Eubani, post: 8508170, member: 6689493"] There does seem to be a double standard as to usage of various cultures and myths in ttrpg's and when it is brought up said person faces accusations/implications of racism or accusations such as arguing in bad faith. Also a search for such a problem will always find one whether it exists or not. Don't get me wrong, poor usage of culture myth and race can be racist but not all usage is and too often something derived from a culture is enough to get called problematic. Instead of automatically being offended on another's behalf maybe research or discuss with relevant people to see if it is in fact racist or insulting. Others that are seeking to be offended on another's behalf and the professionally offended are not relevant people to get these answers when you seek to discuss with relevant parties.
