Quote from: Theory of Games;1132181WTF?

WotC has really embraced the wild left, presenting a real issue for those who don't support that wing.

How much does BLM care about D&D?

Flip the question. How much does a small part (their dice are 100% profit - they're DIGITAL DICE sold for as much as $15 for one!) of a small time frame ( a single week) of a small element of their sales (they never were big on dice because they are silly) being devoted to this cause show how much D&D cares about BLM?

But BLM is not "the wild left". It's pretty fucking mainstream at this point. BLM is not itself rioting or Antifa.

nope, they do when enough damage, enough cost has been inflicted that one or two is sacrificed to show 'something is being done' and the rest of the corrupt lot can carry on as normal, until the next time.

Brave of you to sacrifice other people's children for your admittedly doomed-to-failure tactic.

The notion of an exclusionary and hostile RPG community is a fever dream of zealots who view all social dynamics through a narrow keyhole of structural oppression.

Then some rich guy comes along cuts a deal with the city, evicts the squatters and builds on the ruins. You honestly think prime redd as l estate or decent rental estate is just going to remain ruins because you have so mastubatory sex fetish about the end of the world. Maybe in the imaginary worlds  populated inside your head.

Then it becomes a drug den which slowly starts killing black people everyday and in the long term far more than what the police had done.  Seriously are you stupid, or just a good friend to the KKK?  No seriously I want to know.  Are you stupid, or just racist?  You owe the forum at least that answer.

hahaah, not until all the conservatives here answer: are they rapists or paedophiles?  Seriously, that's the only reason for their entire belief system so which one?  You rape adults or kids?

Taggie is certainly looking like a title contender in the 2020 Edge Olympics. Keep it up, sport!

This is like the most pathetic troll I think I've ever seen...
It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of your own ignorance.

the gangs are way less dangerous to have around than the cops, and if junkies want to kill themselves, let them.

It's very disheartening being online these days seeing so many people and so many businesses furthering the BLM lies which have been dividing the nation and encouraging violence and destruction. This entire controversy is a lie manufactured by the media, that lie being that black people are disproportionately the targets of unjustified police violence. In a country of over 300 million, the media can certainly find some sort of event where a black person is the victim of a white person and if they can use that to create a national scandal where cities are burned and our spineless leaders don't lift a finger to stop it, then what hope is there for the country?

I don't want to give any of my money to any business that supports this hate mongering and these lies, but honestly it's hard to find businesses who don't.

given the statistics, it is not a lie, at all. Hell just look at the way the armed, terrorist anti-lock down protestors where treated when they were storming into voting chambers to intimidate politicians, versus watching the early, peaceful anti-police protests getting tear gassed and baton charged, with people being pulled out at random by the police.  The only tragedy of this is how many more people will get sick.

It is going to get darker shield.  Once the military arrives those rioters will be wishing they stayed at home.  Of course if antifa, blm, and the mainstream media hadn't goaded this shit to happen we wouldn't be in this mess.
