Thing is nobody wants to discuss either, from either side/culture/leftist/liberal/whatever take People mostly want to yell that they're right and get in burns and hot takes and not really go into any real depth And anyone who disagrees is my posting enemy because the goal is being right, not discussion. If you think that D&D, a board full of leftists is the problem, but not the glorious C-spam, a board full of slightly more left leftists, that's really dumb and lazy. The whole forums culture thing can also get really stupid, like "look at D&D it's full of eugenicists" when it was one guy who was immediately piled on by everyone with a brain

No, we're asking you to define it so we can actually engage with your reasons for describing D&D as leftist rather than liberal or centrist. You seem to treat the idea that D&D is generally liberal with derision, so why don't you tell us why we're wrong? This is an open invitation, you can either choose to share your logic or you can play this stupid "well you're not good enough to explain myself to" game which nobody's buying anyway. You're going to get mocked either way, so why not find some courage for once in your life and stand for what you believe? e: oh yeah and you don't get to highroad anyone if you're just going to flat out ignore honest replies that engage you, like joepinetree's

"d&d is leftist" makes sense when you remember that in the US the mainstream left is still aoc and the faiz shakirs of the political environment. that is their people.

I'm going to get mocked because you've already decided what the real truth is in your mind, and me posting anything that disagrees with that will be disregarded. Like "find some courage for once in your life" holy poo poo lol what quote:e: oh yeah and you don't get to highroad anyone if you're just going to flat out ignore honest replies that engage you, like joepinetree's Didn't even see that response and I'll go reply to it now but if I miss even one response I"m clearly the hated enemy or whatever.

joepinetree posted:The difference between c-spam and D&D isn't one of politics or who is more left. It's of insane policing of ridiculous rules to ensure that a strictly establishment liberal view is the only one that can be taken at face value. Remember when you got probated in the immigration thread for correctly pointing out that the people defending the Banon/Miller line of "immigration ruins the welfare state" were shifting goal posts? And I got probated for pointing out that that was bullshit? That's not what people are saying, in this thread, it's a built up forums culture beef as well as lovely culture rules. If it wasn't, you wouldn't see people referring to "the politics of D&D which people do all the time in this thread. That's why I constantly call people out in USPOL when they declare what the thread things because they're building up an imaginary enemy so they can have a faceless thing to rage against. I agree some of the moderation is super dumb and that particular one was a mod enforcing their opinions as if it were a rule. It was a BS probation, and I was mad about it. quote:That is the difference. Here, you can tell people to gently caress off and they can do the same. D&D you can point out that the Miller/Banon line on immigration is racist bullshit unsupported by anything, but as soon as the government changes you can't do the same to the polite version of the Banon/Miller argument that is suddenly acceptable there. Like I said, I agree that some moderation is bad and tone policing.

lol the thread title. liberalism is a walking corpse whose end should have come once the conservatives ditched the concept of monarchy but they were too uncouth and racist for a full merger of the capitalist politics parties

Judakel posted:is california a progressive state? Compared to the US, yes, but that's a really low bar. Otherwise? It's got a lot of problems. lovely cops, corporate Dems that are largely owned by the very rich corporations, single payer is dead despite supermajorities, nobody really tackling homelessness, the housing crisis none of that. I'm more interested in saying that it sucks on a lot of levels and addressing those problems than saying a one sentence "is it progressive" because that's a subjective measure Do CA dems suck, absolutely. Do they suck as much as CA republicans? No. But by saying that, someone decides that me saying there's different levels of suck absolutely means that I love Dems and want to marry them.

But how do I get there within current politics? Judakel posted:why does it vote for things that are so conservative like against rent control Because a ton of people are sitting on million dollar houses and they're easy to convince that they're just landlords in waiting. The housing market here plus Prop 13 has absolutely hosed the politics up, as it was intended like all the had to do to kill the Prop that allowed property taxes to go up on big businesses was to imply that it would lead to prop 13 being dropped Jaxyon has issued a correction as of 01:34 on Jul 10, 2021 |
