And I’m the bad faith actor.
What’s wrong with being white now? Racist much?
Oh, by the way, remember the part where the OP mentioned derailment? Yeah, you’re adding to it by resorting to petty insults, over actually providing a compelling arguement.
Also, pretty sure bullying as well as racism is against the ToS. Soooo.
Every bit the melt you prove to be to the regulars in Duskwood, ey Yhireim?

Starshade and I put up solid rebuttals to what you previously posted. If all you want to do is sul-k about somebody calling you a white moderate larper, then frankly you’re not going to contribute anything of worth in this thread and you’re just going to end up looking silly.
Also:
Making a mockery over somebody’s viewpoints that they have inherited and grown over the course of their life is not equivalent to the mockery, belittlement, and wishes of harm and death of people who are born a certain way and will remain that way for the rest of their lives. To think so, you have to either be making some serious leaps in logic, or just be really out of touch in thinking that insults on the internet about viewpoints you publicly display are in some way equivalent to 1940s German politicians.

Oh dear, the white moderate is offended! Preserve the status quo!

Because apparently having an open and neutral stance to social problems is such a terrible thing, evidently.
Also, wasn’t directed to you. You’re at least making an effort to try, and I thank you for that.
The point I was trying to convey however, is that discrimination as a whole is a terrible thing. I’ve been through it before in the past, over my autism. Such petty remarks aren’t exactly telling me much else, other than the same crap I’ve been hearing for years.
Not like you care what I think though. I’m fair game to be discriminated against apparently.
Don’t try and play the autism card LMFAO

I am also autistic and you are really off-base here, bud.

You don’t get to use the race card and get away with it either, buddy.
Besides, it’s the truth. Weither or not you believe that I am, is your call.
Is Duskwood just ignoring you these days?
Is that why’re you’re trying to do your goku-esque emote battle on the forums?

Here’s a good faith tip: look up MLKs letter from Birmingham jail, and as an extra, realise that I’m proving a point by highlighting your demographic in my words
Oh and as an extra olive branch I do believe you’re autistic, and I’m not even being memey about that, I cant prove you’re not
I usually avoid forums because they’re a toxic cesspit. Much like Twitter.
I do pop on from time to time however. Contrary to what I said, there are some good things here that I come to browse through. Pet Peeves for example.
I mean, it is. The difference between saying “no” and saying nothing is barely anything, but the impact it can have for the LGBTQ+ community is huge. Essentially, speak up for those who otherwise can’t. or who would have a quieter voice without others joining them in what they say.
Neutrality is tolerance to a behaviour that is objectively negative. Showing zero tolerance to a negative behaviour is a positive.
And I also don’t stand for characters in-game using terms that have previously been used to belittle people who fall on the autistic spectrum. R-slurs, s-slurs, all of that nonsense - I don’t stand for it either for the same reasons. I also don’t stand for IRL racist terms and mentalities being put into RP for the same reason.
I care because I think you could stand to change your mind on this matter. Seeing pushback against comments that you made is not discriminatory. As for the whole being insulted over white thing? I mean, yeah, okay, technically it’s discrimination but it’s moreso done to turn the tables, to show white people what it feels like to taste even a small amount of the prejudice that ethnic minorities recieve in much larger dosages by comparison.
For the most part, if you are white, you don’t have to suffer threats, insults, and assumptions based on your skin colour. Maybe in some obscure parts of the world, but for the vast majority of places, that will be the case.
All this is to say, getting upset by it to this degree to where you call it discrimination comes off as a bit melodramatic and frankly quite silly.
Also I am white myself, just for full disclosure. But I understand and have empathy towards minority communities who suffer genuine discrimination on a daily basis.

Give it a few years and that might begin to change, honestly. Not to say that I’m indifferent to those who do receive such though. I’m against discrimination as a whole, regardless of skin colour.
And I will also admit this now, you’ve made me rethink this a couple times, and I think I’m starting to kind of get it.
I kind of get it now. Still unsure as to how I would go about it myself however. I’d roll with it, as I’ve come to accept that there will be some who will be eager to speak maliciously towards me and others, as somewhat demonstrated by some in this thread as well.
But I’ll actually have a think on this, and contemplate how I could go about it in future, regardless of weither or not I outright agree. Despite what I think on that, ultimately the hobby should be fun and accessible to all, something I strongly wish for in general.
Although… I’m going to disagree on this here.
Same could be said for taking offence to some who simply don’t know better, or have a difference of opinion. For myself, as I said, my past experiences have more or less solidified where I’d stand on that front.
I don’t find it silly to speak up when I feel I have to. Something I’m confident in saying that you might resonate with to an extent.

Projection much?
Entering this thread is like entering a time loop
Every time I see the same or at least effectively identical figures trapped here for all time forced to push their argument boulder up the hill like a modern day sisyphus
Every two or three days the play repeats, the actors retreading their same lines against the same counterpoints …

Feels more like purgatory, but that’s a good analogy as well.
It’s a perpetual ground hog’s day, this thread of ours
I watched ARQ recently and it was a pretty good take on the time loop trope, solid movie, didn’t realise it was an indie one until I read up on the world building afterwards

Next, one of the main actors of my play - Starshade - will reply to Yhireim ( a new but still familiar antagonist )
It is obvious this is not the first production of this particular play …
