Summary: "NO U :qq:"

e: I want to like Devi. She and I are nominally on the same side, and have nominally the same aesthetic. But she interprets "punk" to mean "I have to rebel against everything", whether or not it's useful, meaningful, or right to rebel against it, and that often leaves me completely unable to support her. In particular, she's firmly convinced that because TERFs exist (that's Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminists, if you're not down with the lingo), that means that all self-declared feminists are anti-trans. It's laughable but apparently genuinely what she believes.

e2: Editing that out, but Devi's abuse cycle is "Devi says something lovely, feminists call her on it, Devi screams about being abused, rinse, repeat". Sorry, dude.

The 144,000 best feminists have been bodily assumed into Feminist Heaven and reborn as one being, the Ur-Feminist. With the body of a lioness, the neck and tail of a dragoness, and the face of Gloria Steinem, it rises roaring from the ocean and devours those who are not Liberated Pansexual Non-Binary Justice Warriors.

The difference between your macro and the earlier one is that the other one ended with Michael Sam, the first openly homosexual NFL player, thereby equating homosexuality with spousal and child abuse.

Unless you have a really skeevy GM, rape generally shouldn't be brought up while playing CoC. It's understandable that some elements of the genre it's emulating had rape, but it's not something that should be dwelled upon in your games. It's not a fun topic, and can make the players uncomfortable. You should be fighting fishmen with tommy guns and running for your life before the shoggoth gets you, that's what the game's more about.

Which just brings the immediate question to mind: Some large group of people involved with a company (or companies) being targeted by those investigations decided that flying four airplanes* into major buildings would be less damaging if they got caught than whatever those investigations would've turned up? And not a one ever got caught, flubbed it up, had a crisis of conscience, and so on?

*Or using bombs, thermite, Death Stars, etc., depending on the particular brand of Truther

Lack of evidence is itself evidence of the conspiracy to suppress the evidence. Anyone who was going to blab has been silenced, and everyone still alive is part of the Bilderberginatrilateral conspiracy to ensure that we never know, except for the faint glimmers of inspiration from people who have seen through their lies by discerning the secrets hidden in their sympathetic magic signs and signals.

I have very rarely wished harder in my life to be joking.

For the most part, yeah. The scary ones are the ones where they use flawless logic that would make their entire point valid if their premises were true. It's really frightening to see a conspiracy theory where the only part of it that makes it invalid is the invalid premise (instead of being based on multiple invalid premises, twelve fallacies, and a healthy dose of shifting the burden of proof). It kind of makes the real-deal schizophrenic word-salad types a refreshing change.

No see they may not want it, but since they didn't clearly state this verbally then it totally doesn't count as a rape. :downswords:

Yeah it seems like it would be a lot easier to just come up with some reason to seize records and destroy or "lose" them. And would be far less catastrophic if ever found out than murdering thousands of people.

But I guess then they wouldn't be able to play out whatever long con the truthers think the government is pulling.
