They also seem to repeat to one another a trope of sorts that alt right people (literally anyone who is not progressive) feels the woke crowd is faking their feelings. Those idiots miss the obvious on that one, people do not think they are faking it because of a difference in thought, they think they are faking it because a shitload of them act like sociopaths....and sociopaths fake their feels all the time.
Definitely.
It's cosplaying at humanity, acting instead of being human.
LOL... and that question! Do they not realize they are participants in a forum about role-playing?
Seriously... "who does one perform for?"
Well, some people love a performance.
They might even participate in such "role-playing" activities as a hobby. It's pretty shocking, I know.
They play at roles as a hobby for the love of playing these roles, you see.
(If anyone should understand role-playing at things for the personal fulfillment of playing roles, it probably should be role-playing gamers.)
I love the way that one of the shite-bag fascists, I mean moderators, said that 90% of the hobby are all now thinking 'their way'.
*sigh* The hive mind used to be something we avoided, being free men of the West.
Now, it's back to tribalism. Regressive. Active stupidity.
I enjoyed my RPG books in the day when we didn't require political statements to prove our bona fides or the performative humanism of the authors. Don't underestimate your audience, and all that. We're shocked when art doesn't treat us like children... and it wasn't that long ago when they used to treat us like adults, but not any more.
