      Nobody was trying to make this about race except you my man. That was the very first place your mind went. Which probably isn’t a coincidence because, in my experience, the people screaming look at me look at me I’m not racist usually turn out to be the most racist motherfuckers you will ever deal with.

          Its in general about their properties and how they handle them. I seriously doubt most of the people here, other then race obsessed people like you, could even tell you where tencent is based. Could even tell you who the nationality of the people in charge are. I sure as fuck can’t. I have heard the name several times in the past but, honestly, until I saw you posting this I thought they were an American company.

          Because, you know, I don’t obsessively check the race of everything before I make a decision about it.

              The big issue is they are just another huge shitty corp that will bring no value, and more importantly will 100% be sitting on this property for a very long time. If it got sold people would hope it would go to someone good, someone who would bring something positive too the property, people who might turn things around and put real heart and soul into it.

              Ok so…YOUR TURN! You are defending tencent so hard, making it so clear anyone who doesn’t like the poor company is only against them because of racism. There has to be something amazing about them that you know that will change all of our minds? Because, honestly, right now I’m reminded of all the ‘if you didn’t like the movie it means your sexist’ crap we got with girl ghostbusters.

                  I answered the issue. People are mad that its getting sold to another horrible corporation who will 100% sit on the property for years and has zero chance of doing anything good with it. This is flat out saying ‘D&D’ has no chance of going up from here. This is a big nail in the coffin. I don’t know how to explain it simpler then that, and the fact that you glossed over me explaining why people are against this shows you don’t really want to discuss the subject you just want to keep crying racism because you have a massive hardon for this company and you must defend their honor at all costs.

                  Seriously…why are you so defensive of this company? Do you have stock in the company or something? I really don’t think its you desperately trying to prove you aren’t racist like i did in the beginning…but there is something weird about this my man. You just…really really really want this company to be good in our eyes. You want so hard to prove that naysayers are only racist.

                  nobody is addressing it.

                  That’s because nobody is saying Tencent will be specifically worse for D&D than Hasbro has been.

          Who’s saying Tencent owning D&D is worse than Hasbro owning D&D?

          Hasbro has thoroughly fucked D&D over. My expectation is that Tencent will find different and novel ways to fuck D&D over. I doubt Tencent will be significantly better or worse for D&D than Hasbro. But then D&D (and WotC more generally) was mostly beyond redemption before news that Hasbro was trying to sell it off.

              Joncash2’s comment? Please explain the 4-dimensional calculus by which you interpreted that comment to have said anything about Tencent being worse (for D&D or just in general) than Hasbro (or better, for that matter).

          I downvoted it because it’s racism out of nowhere. Whether you’re being pro-racist or ironically anti-racist hardly matters, it’s just an unwelcome and unwarranted jump to this subject that nobody cared about.

          What reasonable person could read your post as anything but sincere racism? An “/s” goes a long way.

          (Though I’m not sure in this case that would have been enough to keep you from getting downvotes. Would have made your post sound like you thought everyone who thought Tencent owning D&D was a bad thing thought so for racist reasons.)

          And you misused the word “interrogate.”

      Something about the way you worded the first paragraph makes it read as if you are stating your opinion and not mocking the reason most people go “Tencent bad”. I had to re-read a couple times to understand it. I do agree with your critique.
