People need to hear this.
Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer.

Go to a peaceful assembly and a school board meeting. Call your Member of Congress and your state legislator. Vote and post memes.

During Gen Con, I will have 250 of these zines with me.

The goal is to inform normies about what’s going on with CGE and a call to action to join the blacklist.

No buying, pitching, or covering CGE games until they give the community a proper apology and response on how they plan to make good. 🎲✂️

BREAKING: Scott Pelley just risked everything to make one thing clear:
The attack on free speech isn’t coming—it’s already here.

Journalists are being silenced, critics are being punished, and most of the media’s playing dead.
