From my limited understanding of the English language, the comma before the and makes it so that the “lots” refers to the intergroup romance, not the safety tools. I think.
In formal English, the comma is just wrong. Informally, I agree it does a very effective job of making the message get across that way.

What are safety tools?

What are safety tools?
basically a safe word system for TTRPGs, LARPs, etc.
in my experience they’re useful for large and/or public groups but if you have to use them with small groups of familiar people you’re probably just not a good match for each other TTRPG wise

safety tools: oh-oh the dragon slipped and impaled itself on your spear which you did not know was actually +10 and guaranteed critical against dragons
Dragon OSHA is on their way, now.
-
What are safety tools?
OSHA 1910.132(d)(1)(ii) mandates that safety tools needs to be clearly communicated to each affected employee.

I want the first one but with high magic. Do you know how compelling the story can be when you’re fighting racist oppressors who have access to ‘Wish’?
sir, a second wish has hit the hightower

What are safety tools?
Methods like the X card or „lines and veiles“, that you can use to define with what you are comfortable or not and to stop in-game if needed.

I run gritty low magic games with death and safety tools. Which group do I join!?

“I wish for all wishes made after this one to fail spectacularly”

Wouldn’t it be intragroup if your party are all banging?

I’ve used lines and veils before but that was because it was my first time running for those players and wasn’t very familiar with what is or is not ok for them

Both of what are valid?

Thank you.

D4’s are a menace that should be illegal.

Yes, the term “in-game racism” is pretty broad. Does it mean anything that’s not a human, elf, dwarf or halfling has a KILL ME sign on it? Or when elves and dwarves don’t get along? Or that character races are called “races” instead of “species”? Is it racism when character race influences stats?

Memes are good at presenting false dichotomies for people to nod knowingly and say yeah, that about sums it up.

No, they have nothing to do with the style of play. They have to do with group dynamics, which is an entirely separate thing.
I actually haven’t ever used them myself. I’ve only played with people I already know or people that those people are vouching for, and I do a solid session zero to establish campaign content and tone. But it’s who I’m playing with and the fact that we’ve discussed it that’s relevant there, not whether we’re playing heroic fantasy romance or dark gritty realism.
So, you’re just disagreeing based on semantics? In that case sure. Safety tools are a group dynamic thing and not a style of play thing. No argument there.
