@Serotonin_Ronin Just old TSR’ers thinking we owe them something and not advancing their attitudes past 1960.

[SKaye @tabletopalmanac]

Today I’m choosing not to fight reactionary gamers. It’s sad when mutuals follow them. It doesn’t matter if they “created the hobby.”

Games aren’t “just games.” “Song of the South” or “Triumph of the Will” aren’t “just movies.”

Life informs art informs life.

@Cup_of_TViv @Where_Am_I_52 @threelinestudio That’s where you’re wrong. Woke fascism communists will put you in rewokeification camps if you don’t use it. Suggestions and guidelines are mandatory if mentioned, unlike in old D&D.
They’ll also burn your Mage: the Ascension 2E books, but that’s besides the point.

@MPJulian @CarbonWater79 “Rules for thee but not for me” is the usual conservative motto.

@flburnsgm @bignothingman @WizardGoesBoom Oh noes pronouns. Better go shit myself. Centrists are cowards.
You also have no idea what talking in circles is — I’ve been pretty much on a linear path. You all keep coming back to “they’re forcing me to use a suggestion!”

[SKaye @tabletopalmanac]

@bignothingman @flburnsgm @WizardGoesBoom Uh, yeah, they don’t say “just deal with it.” This is about ways to resolve rather than just say “deal with it.”

[SKaye @tabletopalmanac]

@bignothingman @flburnsgm @WizardGoesBoom What do they have to gain by controlling people?

[SKaye @tabletopalmanac]

@bignothingman @flburnsgm @WizardGoesBoom If you didn’t get all in a tizzy when a rulebook gives a suggestion on how to table manage, we wouldn’t even need this discussion.

[SKaye @tabletopalmanac]

@bignothingman @flburnsgm @WizardGoesBoom Point to where the big bad book forces you to do this, rather than suggests that, if you encounter something like that, here are some methods to resolve the situation.

[SKaye @tabletopalmanac]

@flburnsgm @bignothingman @WizardGoesBoom Well of course I agree. That doesn’t change the fact that this sort of thing happens.

[SKaye @tabletopalmanac]

@bignothingman @flburnsgm @WizardGoesBoom What do they have to gain by “virtue-signaling?”

[SKaye @tabletopalmanac]

@bignothingman @flburnsgm @WizardGoesBoom The Venn diagram nears a circle pretty often.

[SKaye @tabletopalmanac]

@bignothingman @WizardGoesBoom What about a newcomer who has no idea they need to dodge that bullet?
Also this https://t.co/G5Nr6Fle9T

[SKaye @tabletopalmanac]

@bignothingman @WizardGoesBoom And should know they need to ask that? Don’t make me bring up the UKGE Tales from the Loop game.

[SKaye @tabletopalmanac]

@bignothingman @WizardGoesBoom You disagree and think a newcomer should ask “do people get raped in this game? Including my PC by other PCs? I’m not ok with that.”
