This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Do SJWs Contribute Anything of Value, to the World of RPGs?

A hypothetical author producing a good game despite inserting their propaganda is certainly possible.  It's possible in exactly the same way that a professional athlete wearing 10 lbs weights on both legs can still outrun a lot of ordinary people in a footrace.  There's enough crap out there that someone with talent and work can often out produce the competition, even with several self-imposed handicaps.  The game is still shittier than it would have been had they not done so.

Yes, it's possible. I have yet to think of any that would fit that mold though.
