    The RESTRICT act has to be one of the most egregiously terrible and vague pieces of legislation I've ever seen. It would give the government blanket authority to prosecute any online activities that are opposed to the American government, regardless of their legality. Let me put some of the text...

    CAP 32 - Part 5 - Primary Ability Discussion

    I'm gonna add support for Pixilate - It's two major upsides are the ability for us to carve out a niche with unique moves as well as providing a lot of power. On the physical side, we have moves such as Body Slam, Extreme Speed, Fake Out, Facade, Rapid Spin, and more. The special side is much...

    I think you might like Kobold Press's Southlands campaign setting (which is set in the same world as their Midgard setting). It's basically fantasy Africa. If you want to, you can DM me and I'll share with you a Google drive link to the book. I'm currently DMing a campaign in Southlands and...

    I think the idea that social and political disunity in the US is due primarily due to how bad all the social issues are right now is not very well considered. Everyone thinks they are living in the worst time, that the issues affecting them are truly grand and bigger in scale than issues...

    If you can't be bothered to read my posts, that's not my problem. Here is what I wrote verbatim: Why take the most radical politicians? Let's take the mainstream. Both the Trump and the Biden government colluded with Twitter to suppress persons and opinions they did not like. Throughout the...

    I did not say racism was solved in 1964. I said the belief that America is irredeemably and systemically racist, and the increased focus on identity politics is newly popular in our political discourse. This is different than saying that racism does not exist. I'm not an expert on this, I'll...

    Misrepresenting the intentions and beliefs of your opponents has a long and storied history in politics. I agree with you. A portion of the GOP's rhetoric is trumped up, bad faith accusations made towards people they don't like. However, I'm gonna pull a whataboutism here. The American left...

    I don't get this. Are you denying that political focus on systemic racism is a new development in mainstream politics? I hate to be that guy, but where's the proof? In what election prior to say, 2016, did either party focus on the issue of "systemic racism" and identity politics in the US...

    Yes. Post segregation, it was not a widely held opinion that America was systemically racist. It was not a large part of the popular political discourse. It was not a big split issue between the two main political parties.

    Right well, this is the issue. You think something is an human right, and half the country disagrees with you. Up until 20 years ago, almost nobody in the country agreed with you. Like I said, unless you think that the country was fascist up until the 2000s, this just doesn't hold water. Like it...

    No politicians are calling for all trans people to be shot. There are politicians who believe that giving trans children gender affirming care is wrong. There are politicians who are convinced that kids are being brought to drag shows as an excuse to sexually abuse them. This may be hyperbole...

    Headlines “Politics” [read the OP before posting]

    Your beliefs seem to be that LGBT people should be accepted in society and systemic racism is an issue in the U.S. Please correct me if I'm wrong. This may come as a shock, but many people do not agree with this views. You're views on these matters are not universal. Many people do not think we...
