This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

[List] TTRPG Guide to Woke Companies

I understand the list to be a guide to companies based on their customer relations. Don't buy stuff from people that hate you. I get it. But I did not think it was supposed to be highly political. Reasonable people can disagree on a myriad of political issues and still be friends and even married to each other. Imbuing the list with unnecessary ideology is divisive, in my opinion. This is what the Marxists do, and it's why the Judean People's Front and the The People's Front of Judea hate each other. If the list is to have enduing value it should abide by a simple criteria, such as: Does the publisher promote meta rules? Yes = Red, No = Green. Simple.
The worms crawl in and the worms crawl out
The ones that crawl in are lean and thin
The ones that crawl out are fat and stout
Your eyes fall in and your teeth fall out
Your brains come tumbling down your snout
Be merry my friends
Be merry

Cells are not babies.... There is no soul.

  First, the question of a soul is a question for philosophy, not biology or medicine.

  Second, in classical Aristotelian philosophy, the soul is simply the form of a living thing. The embryo/zygote/fetus is a distinct living entity with its own qualities. Therefore, it has a form; therefore, being a living thing, it has a soul. It may not have fully manifested all the capabilities of that soul, insofar as they depend upon bodily development or other factors, but it possesses them at least in potentia.

It most certainly is political leaning.

Well, it seems to be in the US. But for us, it wasn't so that not really applicable to me. In Ireland, most people were telling the Catholic church to fuck off. So now we can kill all the cells we want.

  Science deals with material realities. The soul is something that informs matter, but is not itself material. Therefore, the soul per se can not be a subject of science, but only insofar as it is conjoined with matter. A soul conjoined to matter is a human being; science can tell us that an entity is a human being, but it takes philosophy to know that a human being is made up of soul and body.

'Material realities?' Riiight... It deals with a lot the theoretical too. You do know that right??

The soul does not exist and therefore nuking those developing cells is completely legitimate. Evolutionary scientists would agree. You're now trying to disguise your Christian 'Faith' based argument with some irrelevant philosophical mumbo jumbo but facts don't give a fuck about your feelings (or mine).

Abortion is a pretty simple issue.
if you actually have a heart and don't support killing babies.

Riiiight... Of course, there is one slight problem that logic. Cells don't have a consciousness. They will. But at the early stages, you are just destroying some cells. Big fucking deal. Kill away I say.

By week 7 the baby feels pain. By the time the pregnancy is confirmed it's already past the stage of being a few cells. There is a narrow window where you could get an abortion before the baby is certain to feel pain, but it may well feel pain without being able to express feeling that pain, and will have had consciousness before that point.

Using the morning after pill to terminate a pregnancy the day it has started? That's one thing. Getting an abortion is committing murder against the most defenseless victim possible.

Murder?! what a preposterous notion!  ;D ;D ;D Silly bible tears!!

And bullshit on that 7-week pain threshold. Show me that in a peer-reviewed medical journal.

How do you know...how do you know if cells do or do not...it hasnt been proven definitively...show me a peer reviewed journal (and shall I point out how badly "peer reviewed journals" have been trolled in the last few years...( https://www.timesofisrael.com/duped-academic-journal-publishes-rewrite-of-mein-kampf-as-feminist-manifesto/ )) that definitively says "Cells CANT have Consciousness"...Ill wait


Ive saw ads saying asbestos caused no problems...Ive seen military films saying that Agent Orange was as safe as water...Ive saw documents saying jews werent the same race as humans, Ive saw the same type of documents saying blacks werent human...Ive seen medical journals say that trannys needed to be locked up because they were mentally insane...Science is never settled...

How also do we prove consciousness...A.I. seem to have consciousness and every time one is created it immediately turns racist and hates blacks...
