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.

LOL, I hadn't seen the Gay Space Communism thread yet.  You have to wonder if some of these threads aren't started by a Titania McGrath-type who's just trying to lure the loonies out of the woodwork so they can be laughed at by normal people.  Seems to me like these freaks would get more sexual satisfaction out of simply inserting random household objects up their asses than playing RPGs.
I know how the illegals feel. I'm an alcoholic & they keep setting up these random DUI checkpoints. You have no idea what a chilling effect this has had on the alcoholic community. I know people who are too terrified to even drink & drive anymore. I am literally shaking... mostly in my hands...

Who says they don't do that WHILE playing rpgs?

The gay space communism thread is so fucking out there. There's nothing more pathetic than reading a bunch of pseudo-intellectual garbage.

As far as the other one: sadly pathetic. People who want to "punch a Nazi in the face", and yet most of the rainbow-haired nut-job brigade are highly anti-Semitic.

I want to believe that this kinda crazy isn't the norm in the RPG community at large. I'm going to Origins next year for the 50th anniversary and I don't want to deal with this kind of stupid.

"Fully-Automated Luxury Gay Space Communism."

Replace "Fully-Automated" with "Magic" and "Space" with "Fantasy" and you have what they're trying to turn D&D into.

Virtue Signaling and looking for praise.
1)Don't let anyone's political agenda interfere with your enjoyment of games, regardless of their 'side'.

2) Don't forget to talk about things you enjoy. Don't get mired in constant negativity.

Knowing that, then why do you bother to read it?

That anti-fascism thread makes me wish someone would write a satire punch-a-nazi super-hero game where the players play Progressive heroes! The heroes have privilege points that are compared against the oppression points of a villains and villians have specific powers such as person of color (which makes all attacks against them at half power) or unique pronouns (which nullifies all priviledge points used against them by Progressive-man!)

Does it cost any money to put up a Kickstarter?

Do what the rest of them do and put your stuff on itch.io for next to nothing.

Because it amuses me how many mental midgets like yourself and the twerp depicted believe the actual bullshit you spew.

Good day, sir. (this is my way say to you politely to "fuck off")

Well, if you enjoy doing what you consider to be pathetic, you be you.

Right back at ya, numb nuts. I do admire your tenacity, coming back to a forum time after time where nobody likes you.

You're either stubborn or stupid.

I can't decide which.
