Tabletop, not Agitprop
Apparently it's a controversial statement...
Well Heavens to Murgatroyd! It actually didn’t take me a month to think of another Substack article! As it goes with your friendly neighborhood Shogun, for me to write an article something has to grind my gears. So what’s grinding my gears now?
Those assholes again… Well let’s start at the beginning with a tweet from Troll Lord Games on Thursday:
Now as someone who is a TTRPG developer I firmly stand by that statement. As a matter of fact I responded:
However… to the commie loser brigade infesting TTRPG, having that attitude is absolutely verboten and the usual tweet diarrhea ensued:
Note the Ukrainian flag and the pronouns on her bio…
Antifa sympathizer… Yeah. Oh Buy Large Mansions and buzzword bingo! Nice.
I’ll elaborate on this fallacy later in the article…
If all else fails, guilt by association. Yep, standard leftoid bullshit.
‘If you’re not with us, you’re Nazis’ Good to know, clown ass!
You get the idea.
To understand the mindset of these losers I shall turn to my favorite source of toilet paper Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung better known as ‘the little red book’:
“In the world today all culture, all literature and art belong to definite classes and are geared to definite political lines. There is in fact no such thing as art for art's sake, art that stands above classes, art that is detached from or independent of politics. Proletarian literature and art are part of the whole proletarian revolutionary cause; they are, as Lenin said, cogs and wheels in the whole revolutionary machine.”
The TL;DR version… your art must serve the revolution.
To that I retort:
Let’s be honest after their hostile takeover of WOTC and Paizo these losers feel like hot shit. But the bottom line is that people just want be left alone and escape the bullshit that is modern society full of corrupt governments, depopulation schemes, and pride flags that increasingly resemble the AIDS quilt so they can play their games, relax, and recharge so they won’t end up needing to be inside a rubber room. GamerGate has prove that you can’t bother with people’s creature comforts in the service of your Jim Jones-style cult nonsense.
To this day these zealots haven’t learned their lesson and has quadrupled down on their bullshit. You see it everywhere, Hollywood where every movie has to be laden with alphabet content, Music where ‘Baby it’s cold outside’ is verboten but' ‘Wet Ass Pussy’ isn’t, Gaming where if you put a white male as a main character you’re a pariah in the industry, just ask John Garvin, creative director of Days Gone, Comics where you get an endless parade of bullshit like this…
You get the idea.
Our culture is under assault and the wokies will stop at nothing to brainwash every man, woman, and child (and sexually violate said child) into their soulless ideology and if anything is made not in service to it, it must be eradicated. That means in their minds Troll Lord Games has to be dealt with… severely. They must bend to their demands or be banned from “the community” permanently which means don’t expect them at GenCon anytime soon.
I for one stand with Troll Lord Games in their stance and hope that this pathway will lead to great future in TTRPG especially with their current series Castles and Crusades
Could this be the IP that could challenge WOTC in the future? We shall see.

As for these lunatics with Ukraine flags, pronouns, commie symbols, BLM, VoteBlueNoMatterWho, Alphabet flag, Fauci shrines, and other abominations on their bio. You think Troll Lord Games is bad? When I get RōNIN back up and running this spring:
Your soy-addled asses will belong to the Shogun.
Mad Shogun. Out.
