I've been frequenting RockPaperShotgun since 2009. I've drifted a away a bit in latter years, evolving and growing after the company was sold to an SEO-focused news org. But I still count myself as a solid fan of the sites, especially when as a Gaming website it has never shied away from "Political" issues, like this one today:
https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/video-game-publishers-are-starting-to-use-anti-dei-as-a-marketing-meme
You can normally tell a Political thread just by the count of user comments left beneath - normally in the multiple-centuries instead of in mere dozens. This one has panned out predictably; some brand new accounts swooping in to make trouble, some well-meaning but dumb comments being taken to task and a LOT of anger.
Worth a read if you've got any room spare for the ongoing "Culture War" under a microscope. Plus, it's always fun when a games publisher outs themselves as unworthy of your money.
