Are Conservative Gamers Just Stupid?

 There's been a recent one of those fistfight-in-a-fishbowl things online. A go-round of grousing lately online, dozens of responses.

Conservative gamers complaining but its hard to know what about "This sucks!!!" why? Who knows?

The only concrete complaint to emerge about anyone is they don't like my maps.

Allegedly, from the point of view of utility.

So, real question for anyone who can answer it--why is this:


...with all the information literally on the map.

Harder to use than this:

...where you have to flip through dozens or hundreds of pages to answer a question like "I succeeded on my Listen roll--what's around the corner?"?

Does anyone anywhere know?

How do you know the critic's political leanings? Is this happening in a right-wing gaming community or something?

I know because they say them.

The current fracas is on Twitter, in the replies to high-follower-account conservative gamer accounts, including people who are like "I don't agree with Zak's politics" etc.

Could just be "I don't like tgis person's politics" --> "I don't like this person" --> "I don't like this thing this person likes/made"

So your answer is, then, "Yes, they are just stupid"
