Hear, hear! So, here you have qa self admited leftist and Atheist (Rob) and a self proclaimed Christian and right winger both telling you that it's not the same thing to refuse to play in certain types of games to trying to force others not to play in those games, so now what?

Furthermore, I don't claim that anyone by playing their degenerate games is putting me at risk (safety tools), I've only stated I won't play in those and will not GM those either. It's a matter of taste (since I wouldn't have played those same games when I was still an edgy Atheist) versus a matter of exercizing power over others.

Hate to break it to you, but 'SJWs' can't do anything to prevent you from playing what you want at your table. Sure they can brigade to get you banned from social media, and campaign to get works removed from distribution, but that has nothing to do with #SafetyTools. And even the #XCard requires the consent of everyone at the table to implement.

This is about the dissonance of adopting the same procedures as one's ideological opposition, and both 'sides' use Lines and Veils in exactly the same manner. And ultimately there is at least one individual with the power to determine what the game will and will not be about. Whether that's GM fiat or group consensus is immaterial.

Me > Explains how it's not the same thing.

You > "Here, let me explain how it's not the same thing while still saying it is"

Are you really this retarded?

Maybe ease off on the insults - whether I look at it from an American English or British English slant, the sentence

is sufficiently ungrammatical that I couldn't make heads or tales of it, and I'm not surprised if other readers couldn't either. A lot of your writing on here seems hurried, it's hard to parse.

(American vs British English: there are a lot of places where UK speakers use "to" where Americans would use a different preposition, often but not exclusively "from": different from vs different to. Prepositions are a fraught part of English and trip up native speakers even before we get into dialect & idiom.)
