This accusation comes in the wake of numerous individuals lampooning Wizards of the Coast for its woke art aesthetic that features cartoonish diversity-inspired caricatures and promotion of homosexual activity.

DrunkDilloPress commented on X, “I guess this is more of the Player Handbook art (including the Mexican orcs). Remember when D&D book art showed bad ass battles and monsters, and not a bunch gay shit?”
