How do I avoid accusations of inserting politics into the game when said insertions, are, in fact, part of published campaign based on estabilished canon on universe?

Should I just shrug it off as coincidence?

Tell them to deal with it.

replace it

point is, some of them are /pol/ so they are likely to VOCALLY like this while others are counter/pol/ and can get triggered
>>
>>52334186
Well, it's not like this is the first time this kind of thing has happened. Just point that out.

The real problem is going to be the group devolving into political bickering. Be sure to keep them moving or you'll be mired in it.

Tell them to put on their big boys pants and deal with it.

First problem: >/pol/

You should avoid recruiting players from either extreme of the political spectrum.
Second problem: you're obviously playing with children.

If they're so easily agitated, or look excuses to spout their political ideology whenever possible, they're not behaving like rational, respectable adults.

Talk to them, warn them. Make the rules of your table clear as can be.

If that doesn't work, then punish them. (Meaning kick them from the session until they've come to understand their mistake.)

If that fails, kick them out, permanently.

>How do I avoid accusations

Don't. If you get into that mindset then you'll just be neutering your creative impulse and quadruple-guessing yourself at every turn. Instead, deal with accusations if and when they arise. No harm in planning that out in advance.

>>52334186
Don't. If they ask, tell them that it's part of the published campaign.

Tell them to wait until after session for politics talk, and preferably not at your house. If they get triggered mid-session tell them to suck it up or leave.

Aside from that, let the party deal with it in game.

>>52334186
Just give the whiny cunt in question a stony glare and ask, "The fuck are you gonna do about it if I am? If you had the chops to be running a game, you'd be running a game."
>>
>>52334186
Just mix in some red pills in the snacks and you'll be fine op don't worry about it
>>
If anyone is enough of a pansy to get outraged at the very idea that there could be refugees from a civil war, you shouldn't be playing games with them.
>>
>>52334186
You should've given them a trigger warning when you were having session 0.
>>
>>52334186
If you don't have the stones to tell your players to grow up and deal with it, you could try altering some superficial details to make it less likely to rustle their jimmies.
>>
>>52334186
It's their problem that they can't take that away from their minds. If they can't do so during a session to just fuckin' play it's everyone's problem. Then they either stop or go away.
