I'll say this: If a chief concern after the election of Trump is that people are buying a board game you don't like, you might be fairly--shall we say--privileged.

I admit I've never consumed any entertainment that's Conan-related and I have no real desire to, but from what I've seen it does appear to be pretty sexist and racist at its core. But I have no problem with people enjoying it, despite or even partly because of that, as long as they recognize that underlying dynamic. We have far more important things to worry about now than geek power fantasies.
