This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: BronzeDragon;1094050Of all crimes, this is the one that truly merits the death penalty.

The horror.........the horror....

I thought so. 4E?!!
I expect these idiots to just convict people on hearsay.  That's nothing new. We all know ex's are never bitter and never ever lie. Women must be believed!
But 4E?! No....just..no.
To DEFEND: this is the pact.
 But when life loses its meaning
 and is taken for naught...

Quote from: kythri;1093921The Nazi's call themselves "Antifa" these days.

LOL. Too true.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                


Quote from: GeekyBugle;1093986Neo-Nazis then, meaning they agree and follow the same ideology as the Third Reich.

Every Neo-Nazi I've encountered would have been shot in the head by the actual Nazis.

They're a loser brigade.

The actual Nazis nearly conquered Europe. The Neo-Nazis can't conquer a mini-mart.


Quote from: Silas1066;1093987Honestly, this whole thing is a case-study in why you don't interface with the public on social and political issues.

Not yet...hopefully the Twitter idiocy grows into a shitstorm for WotC. Then it would become a worthy case-study.

Quote from: oggsmash;1094034Still, what does that have to do with the other guy getting fired?
"Are you now or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party? Whatever your answer, to prove you are no longer Communist you must name other members of the Communist Party."

Now since it's the USA, it's the same except for Problematic Patriarchy. It is not enough that you merely refrain from crime, nor yet that you refer from speechcrime or thoughtcrime, you must publicly disassociate yourself from anyone else who has engaged in any of these crimes - including crimes of omission.

In the 1950s it was Communists. In the 1980s it was Satanic child abuse cults. Now it's SJW purity tests. Same shit, really. America. LOL.

What the hell.
They are behaving like a bunch of retarded herd animals. Unbelievable.

Quote from: GeekyBugle;1093982Not many around these here parts but . . . I have seen a Neo-Nazi, believe it or not a brown one. I mean in person and talked with him. Somehow the idiot thought Auntie Adolph wouldn't have exterminated his ancestors because reasons. And we do have a small group of them, they call themselves "El Frente Nacional" (The National Front) and on the other side of the Rio Grande there's "La Raza", ethno-nationalists too, not sure if they are Nazis tho.
Occasionally you'll see someone travelling the Mexico City subway with a copy of Mein Kampf "fashionably" tugged under their arm. This really puzzles me. I mean, WTF.

True, but remember that reading a book doesn't mean agreeing with everything written in it. I have read the communist manifesto, and some AnCap books too. Doesn't make me either a commie nor an AnCap

Here is why this forum tends to be so stupid. Many people here think Joe Biden is "The Left", when he is actually Far Right and every US republican is just an idiot.

Sure, but why tug it under your arm as if you're showing off that you're reading Teh Mein Kampf? I think I'd prefer to keep it to myself if I were reading it for research.

That's not how it works here, people won't give you the evil eye unless you're reading hentai or playboy, we're funny in that regard. Also most mexicans don't read shit, and of those who do most know shit about history, much less would recognize the book.

Quote from: SavageSchemer;1093954And history is going to show that, when these people were given their "big shot" to turn things in their favor, they went completely off the deep end and killed it on their own. I accept I can be wrong on this one, but I don't think "their time" will come again. At least in my thinking not before the collapse of society itself (an event that bodes very poorly for them, historically speaking).

Oh it will come again. This is like the 3rd or 4th go round now. We sae it in the 80s and it hit a breaking point in the 90s. Now its back with a new mask on but touting the same damn screeds. Just dialed up several notches and this time with extra brainwashing techniques and alot of doubletalk we didnt get last time around.

I figure the next time they come back in force will be with either the advent of full dive VR or full conversion bodymodding. They have to have something popular to have an outcry against.

I know! Have you seen how a bunch of them acted and some still act? Scary stuff man. Scary stuff.

aheh...

Bringing this back on topic. Round 5e being announced the loony bin faction in 4e that was strangling it to death did flip out and go after Mearls and anyone else involved. They even tried to rally to sabotage the playtests.

Round and round it goes.

This is why you never pander much less bend the knee to the woke crowd. You tell them to go ef themselves and to stick their "offense" where the sun don't shine.

Incidentally, while doing an image search for that, I discovered this group.

QuoteThe International Revolutionary People’s Guerrilla Forces, a militant, horizontal, self-organized anarchist armed struggle collective, started to investigate the conflict and how it could best contribute to it. The IRPGF has comrades from both east and west, including ethnic Kurds, who identify with a variety of ethnic, gender and sexual communities. Our members self-identify as anarchists, anarcho-communists, anarcho-syndicalists, social anarchists, queer anarchists, anarcha-feminists, libertarian communists, libertarian socialists and anti-authoritarian marxists.

[...] On July 24th, 2017, the IRPGF announced the creation of The Queer Insurrection and Liberation Army (TQILA), a subgroup of the IRPGF. Queer anarchists in the IRPGF took the initiative to create the subgroup with the full support of the entire collective.
They do not share numbers of these particular groups. How many queer anarchists are there under arms?

You know, people keep comparing non-TSR D&D to deck-building in Magic: the Gathering. But maybe it\'s more like Katamari Damacy. You keep sticking shit on your characters until they are big enough to be a star.

Am I supposed to be Lenin? Sorry no cigar not a collectivist but an individualist, also my opinion isn't an order since I hold no power over nobody but myself.
