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, at this point I firmly believe the fascists are just throwing shite at the wall and seeing what will stick....what people willingly put up with.

I'm one of those that has popcorn and a pepsi watching our civilization decline day by day.

I'm hoping that for 6E they drop all gendered speech.  I really want to see them go down that path.  For session 0, ask everyone their pronouns, and put in a section about how its a safe space and where you can send children to get transitioned and be safe away from their parents.  Depending on how much sway the left gets, I could see them putting something along those lines in the next PHB.

I'm waiting for some Mom's Against D&D to start forming, because they are going to push into some zones of degeneracy and with the kids they target, its going to blow up in their faces.  They have pedo judges for MTG and if you go to D&D Beyond LFG you see 12 year old boys LFG online with no mod action at all.  It might as well be Grinder for pedophiles.  That company has a lot of avenues of attack for bad behavior and they aren't addressing it.  If I was WotC Risk Management and I went to the LFG forum, I'd have a double heart attack.

Risk management isn't as big a deal when you have a government trying to normalize this sick shit.
Quote from: JonWakeGamers, as a whole, are much like primitive cavemen when confronted with a new game. Rather than \'oh, neat, what\'s this do?\', the reaction is to decide if it\'s a sex hole, then hit it with a rock.

Quote from: Old Geezer;724252At some point it seems like D&D is going to disappear up its own ass.

Quote from: Kyle Aaron;766997In the randomness of the dice lies the seed for the great oak of creativity and fun. The great virtue of the dice is that they come without boxed text.

Keep in mind that theres a percentage of the woke that push various forms of theft as a good thing.

But it is only when THEY do it.
 
Also odds are that this new bit of stupid is just another marketing ploy.

It's a grassroots thing, as grassroots as you can get from the wokeratty, but it's not something from any published book/supplement AFAIK, I saw the twatter posts/threads Pundit is talking about.

Bandits are good, and no doubt it's their socio-economic situation that led them to banditry => let them go free.

But PC parties came from groups killing orcs, who we are "reliably" informed represent black people => defund player parties and make them the villains, since they are institutionally and systemically white supremacist. Honestly, I'm tempted to use that line of argument next time someone plays 5th edition as a Seattle cafe simulator. Let them have a dose of their own sophistry.
"The subtle tongue, the sophist guile, they fail when the broadswords sing;
Rush in and die, dogs—I was a man before I was a king."

The difference between grave robbing and archaeology is time and perspective :D

Jokes aside, though, they ALWAYS think it's good till their stuff gets nicked.

They presume the crime will happen to other people.

In SF the libtards are up in arms because it only happens to them.  No non-libs being around to be victimized...

Maybe they should inform the criminals/lunatics that they do not consent to being victimized?
