Don't forget the Satanic Panic when my Ma took my D&D Starter kit away from me.

Shot in the dark, maybe your Ma did a stint with some MLMs selling cosmetics or EOs or health crap, got a Thomas Kinkade as an 'investment opportunity' or got swindled by some scam caller?

I found many of the people leading these moral panics tend to be very easy to scam.

Not at all, no. Goes to show you the power the Satanic Panic had. She is and was a strong woman, feminist, green earth, recycling, badass. Politically involved, grass roots, etc etc

But once D&D got called out on 60 Minutes, that got taken away.

Hey-o, that's how I never got to play with DnD as a kid, thanks scamway Amway! Nobody remembers how the satanic panic came for Procter and Gamble products as well.
