I've read the article and there are more than a few problems with it. One obvious error is while RPG author Zak S is a harassing scumbag and the gamergators are also harassing scumbags, they are not in any way associated with one another. The best evidence I've found is that the people in charge of White Wolf are simultaneously anti-nazi leftists and tone-deaf idiots who enjoy controversy.

Here's a useful, and from what I'e been able to tell, entirely accurate counterpoint to the article linked above. However, it doesn't mean that the people who now own WW aren't idiots.

I've been hearing about this, but I hadn't seen it all laid out in one place before.

I did see that, but I'm... unconvinced, to say the least, by their protestations. Not about whether or not they're alt-right, but whether or not they're marketing that way. Profiting off the controversy, when that involves death threats and stalking, is more than merely idiotic.

edit: I'm strictly speaking of the new WW, and not Onyx Path, who is completely unrelated.
