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.

The RPGPundit's Own Forum Rules
This part of the site is controlled by the RPGPundit. This is where he discusses topics that he finds interesting. You may post here, but understand that there are limits. The RPGPundit can shut down any thread, topic of discussion, or user in a thread at his pleasure. This part of the site is essentially his house, so keep that in mind. Note that this is the only part of the site where political discussion is permitted, but is regulated by the RPGPundit.

Why do all these woketards always have so much drama and bad stuff happen to them?

Mental illness. They're uniformly dysfunctional, broken people, so unsurprisingly have dysfunctional, broken lives.

I'll add that because they are dysfunctional they drive healthy and good-hearted people out of their lives, surrounding themselves with similarly dysfunctional people who quite naturally spread the misery.  Because narcissism is almost always one of their co-morbidities, they come to think the whole world is like their life and project their own wretchedness onto people demonstrating a healthy life.

Because they are surrounded by sodomites, every openly Christian preacher or politician must be using glory holes.
Because they are surrounded by grifters, every capitalist who demonstrates work ethic must be ripping someone off.
Because they live in a progressive stack, straight white males must be out to get them.

Nope. Already locked. I'm sure the mods are writing their writ of this guy's excommunication from humanity right now.

Brave KingAragorn, ye shall be mourned! Alas, after a few drinks we shall question thine wisdom in committing to a full frontal assault of TBP Beast.
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

I think many of the users at TBP avoid looking at the Infractions board or any red text they come across. Sort of like the person who thinks they're safe as long as you don't look at the monster. When they stumble into a mod's focus they're honestly surprised.

I can't help but wonder if you're on to something here, but it doesn't say anything good about TBP.

Because that sentiment is usually seen among people living in a totalitarian police state.

My guess is that they'll nail KingAragorn with a rule 0 permaban and call it a day. Because trying to justify their idiocy in the face of his rebuttal -- which, in my opinion, is damned accurate -- will be too much for them to deal with.

If I'm going to fault KingAragorn, it's that he's been there since 2019 and should be able to read the room and realize the site is run by people who are batshit fucking bonkers. Dude, why bother?

Yep. The useful idiots are always surprised when the revolutionaries come for them. So many of them shout in disbelief, "But I'm on your side! I voted for Obama twice! I support LGBTQ! You can't do this to me!" as they're marched to the proverbial guillotine. If they had spent a little more time studying the French, Russian, and Cultural Revolutions instead of the Nazi boogeyman, they might have seen it coming.

He dared to point out that they called a Native American "racist". He is already dead.
For every idiot who denounces Ayn Rand as "intellectualism" there is an excellent DM who creates a "Bioshock" adventure.

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn wrote some good books about that.  He got to see where it went last time, up close and personal.

I didn't catch that part. That probably explains why they haven't officially responded yet. They're probably looking for a Native American mod to step in, and explain to KingAragorn his internalized racism. They have to avoid the scenario of having a white person explain to the Native American how he is oppressed by the 'orcs are bad guys' narrative started by that edgelord Tolkien back in the 1930s. They're trapped by their own stack. I'm pretty sure they have Native American mods, but maybe they're currently unavailable, or those Native American mods are resisting the idea of being the token minority mod to reply to KingAragorn.

Either that, or they're trying to dox him in the hopes of finding out that he's not a "true" Native American.
