So is this thread just for people who don't post in D&D to bitch about how much they hate D&D? Because y'all could just not read D&D if it's so goddamn awful.



Wait, gently caress, are some of you being held hostage by woke terrorists and being forced to read the Negrotown threads?! Do you need help, for someone to call the police to come rescue you? Post one racial slur for yes, two slurs for no.

Chelb was getting a little played out, thank you for immediately jumping in and rejuvenating the "people who disagree with me are racist" energy spirit bomb you guys are building over there.

anyone else want to plainly and repeatedly justify this thread's existence?

Getting super mad at the folks making it about race is an extremely unique and not at all antique way of shutting down a conversation in order to be comfortable in how powerful and white you feel

Is it possible to have a discussion about working class people in America without you coming in and 'race-plaining' how actually I'm talking about the "white" working class.

Actually theres a lot of good critiques of both D&D and the negrotown thread. i don't think you're gonna read them though

At the same time it's unhealthy to immediately assume racism (even passive racism) in allies and discussions when there exist more likely answers

I think part of the topic is how to get more people with a wider range of opinions involved in D&D instead of telling people they're stupid and to get out. There seems to be an odd struggle between people who think they own D&D and should have editorial control over the discourse, down to what words people can and can't say in any context. It's like most of the people here are doing a kind of verbal judo to get others to give up and leave instead of continuing a discussion.

Her original point she was making was that it's not conductive to either debate or discussion to hastily claim somebody is racist because they disagree with you. She was then labeled racist. The point was then made for her.

yeah i caught that. i was overstating it a bit because of my ptsd from posting in d&d when i was younger and more fragile

It never really started to be honest. By the first page it had already become "you're racist" "close D&D" etc. and it never recovered.
