@MikeQ I'm not sure I agree with your comment on the latest (problematic) meta Q: I'm reading the question not so much to say "we shouldn't be racist to real people, so why should we be pretend-racist to pretend-people?" (drawing a false equivalence) as it is saying "wotc pointed out that the way fantasy games handle races can cause real-world harms, so shouldn't we stop using the terms orc and goblin?"
I'm not saying it's a good argument, or even that I think the user's 100% acting in good faith, but I think their positing something a little different than what I read you pushing back agai…
