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.

I got a "please stop or we'll have to take action" from ICE once. 
There is a certain problem with acronyms.

"THERE'S BLM AGENTS IN THE WOODS!"
Well? That's where I would expect to find them...

I take it you are referring to Iron Crown, rather than those guys that make TBP hyperventilate?

(I have visions of "You will cease to hire day workers...") ;)
Wait!  You mean I was offended over tbp's ICE policy for nothing! :o

Have you seen what happened to the Oscars? People have already a lot of real worries. Being lectured in places where you seek fun and escapism is not what all of us are looking for.

And the irony is that we have some great films that make very clear how escapism is the key to the success of the movie industry as a whole, such as The Purple Rose of Cairo (1985) and, particularly, Hail, Caesar! (2016).

Some guy even noticed how "The Lord of the Rings" Trilogy, amid all his spectacular escapism, contains a lot of good life lessons. And which good movie/story doesn't? For sure, not the ones that lecture you.

Except Yoda. I will always accept a lecture from Yoda.

As for me I'm totally ok with Hopkins getting the oscar despite being a leftist myself.

RPG.net is a cancer on the left and a disgrace to reasonable progressives that should be denounced and shunned by anyone considering themselves a progressive.

Maybe they should heed Sydney Pollack's suggestion to Dustin Hoffman in "Tootsie": "No one pays to see people who live next to chemical waste! They can see that in New Jersey!" - which is the perfect description of "Nomadland".

I liked Erin Brockovich, which was pretty much a movie about people living near chemical waste.

If anything, Erin Brockovich (or even, very recently, Black Waters) are movies that prove how you can be both relevant and involving by building a strong story, with strong characters, based on facts. Same with movies set in other setting, like The Big Short.

These Oscars were an assault of wokeism both in the selected movies and the embarrassing speeches given by the presenters and the winners.

"We are mourning the loss of so many, and I have to be honest, if things had gone differently this past week in Minneapolis I may have traded in my heels for marching boots"

...Said Regina King while wearing a dress by Louis Vuitton with 62,000 Sequins and 3,900 Crystals. The speech (along with many other lectures) was given from Union Station, L.A., after the homeless living in the area were forced to relocate by the Police (lo!) who then erected a wall around it (the irony of this is off the scale).

The viewers? They tuned out to see something else. People are more smarter and fed up that the Woke movement is realising. All we need to look for is if their tone-deafness will be stronger than their money losses.

Even if you are a person of color, you are not allowed to question the narrative or go against the will of your betters, peasant. Racism will be injected into everything.

FFS.
As a virtue signalling, privileged, white liberal my right to decide what is racist outweighs your opinion as a mere person of color. After all where would you all be if it wasn't for people like me fighting on your behalf?  #BLM

Banning a POC for daring to question their priviliged, white, keyboard activism for the racism that it is. It's like looking into an infinity of stupidity.

Remember though everybody this is the worst gaming forum on the net!

I knew rpg.net and the mods were so far down their own rabbit asshole. I did not know how badly. Believe and support POC as long as they tow the party line.

Imagine being so racist you invent new derogatory terms like "POC" for anyone who isn't a white male.
It takes considerable knowledge just to realize the extent of your own ignorance.

They had a conversation going on with frequent postings. After the ban came in there hasn’t been a post in over 24 hours. Do the mods at TBP consider this a “feature” of their bans in that these bans for badthink seem to cause other users to go silent? Or are they oblivious as to what their doing to the conversations that are otherwise maybe going along? Probably the first scenario at this rate.
