I literally said it first thing that it was a distraction to get people to ignore it. The way you're talking I assume you weren't actually around then either, you're going on what you were told not what actually played out. (I can tell cause you think anybody took the D&D / Metal stuff seriously aside the super religious)

It was a distraction, nobody except the extremely religious took the D&D / Metal stuff seriously, to everybody else when that stuff was pointed out they were called kooks. Like most people laughed at the religious rights antics with this stuff, it wasn't taken seriously at all for the most part. It's been a major effort in recent years to make it seem like they actually had some sway with the stupid stuff but they really didn't. (mostly by extreme social justice types with a chip on their shoulder)

You'll never look at it cause your type never does, you're just here to try to keep people from looking any further into what the story was.

So go back to reddit with your dumb shit, you're out of your element donnie.

Nobody took the D&D and metal stuff seriously? Nigga please, they made a movie about it with Tom Hanks, it was all over mainstream media, and they had Congressional hearings with Tipper Gore about heavy metal suicide.

It was not a distraction, and loads of important people took it very seriously, and thus there is a Mack truck sized whole in your point.

All you got is to lob the "go back to reddit" stuff at me. snort I lived through this shit as a Gen Xer. Fucking hilarious you're trying to lecture me.

BTW, what was on Epstein's the island in 1980s?

Mazes and monsters was a joke and way before Tom Hanks was a big name. So was tipper gore. Tippers shit was more about rap lyrics than metal too.

Sucka...Mazes and Monsters was a Hollywood movie, not some low budget indie flick, this it is strong evidence that it was a big deal to the people who made because they were tapping into the existing marketplace fear and thus the movie was a commercial success, because the book it was based on was a commercial success first. Enough so they rereleased the movie later.

Tipper Gore, while she is easy to make fun of, I agree, was merely one of the many celebrities who jumped on the satanic panic bandwagon. Congressional hearings mean that people cared, important and powerful people cared.

Also, in the 1980s, just what was on that island, anyway?
