Hey guys.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your thoughts.
This whole thing is such a big issue that I’m happy it extends to any and all communities. Even Warhammer.
I have so much on my mind regarding this whole situation, racism and sexism in warhammer, and the world in general, and I agree that we shouldn’t stay silent.
Even from comfy Denmark, the injustice and inequality of what is happening is staggering.
Thanks again.
Thanks for listening, and I agree, this a large issue, and one that we can talk take part in!
DeleteHi guys, sorry for the late comment but I did listen to this when you first made it. I found it a worthy contribution to the discussion around these issues, from a hobby perspective. It is so bizarre and worrying that there are people in our hobby who would get upset over a black space marine. I think GW is doing a lot of good work to correct their historical neglect of women and minorities. Anyway, good episode, I enjoyed listening to your thoughts on the issue.
ReplyDeleteThank you for taking the time to listen. I agree that it is astounding that people could get upset about it. I am glad GW is trying to address it, however, regardless of any push back.
