In the prequels, the Jedi have become complacent due to overconfidence. In some of their policies they've become too hide-bound. That is nothing like suggesting that the Jedi are basically evil, much less that the sith are actually misunderstood good people.

As part of his new Economic Freedom Bill, Milei is destroying the government control of the film industry, by removing all but a tiny fraction of the funding of the national film institute, banning the ability of that institute to go into debt, where to fund more than 50% of a

The confusing thing is that normal European people, even "right wing" ones, still think the government and law enforcement will actually help them; when it's very clear that these institutions are now dedicated to assisting the barbarian invaders that the patricians welcomed in.

Were you being peaceful earlier on when protesters played a game of "Hunt the Jew" on UCLA campus, chasing a Jewish student and then keeping him hostage for an hour? Or when you beat a female Jewish student into unconsciousness?

To be fair, statistically most adult Muslims in the UK haven't stolen anyone's job!
That's because only one out of five Muslims aged 18 to 74 in the UK actually have a full-time job.
Four out of five live off the hard work of others
Cherry-picking aside, note how the ones from the 80s are all attempts at the idealization of the human form.

So your goal is to create a system where the people living in a few cities get to control the politics of the entire nation forever, & those deplorable hicks that don't live in LA or NYC won't ever have any say over their own lives.

There's the two different realities. In the classical western philosophical model, Truth is always the main goal.
In the post-modernist, truth is both nonexistent & evil.

Instead of water cannons on Argentina's Antifa mobs, Milei is having them fire a dye, so police can then round up the perpetrators. Participating in riots will also mean they'll be taken off welfare rolls.

That's correct, the Jedi failed because of their complacency which allowed them to compromise with a society that had been corrupted by The Sith.

Only 2.3% of African Americans actually celebrate Kwanzaa, and 0% of Africans because it was never a real African holiday.
Oh, thank goodness that WoTC gives us GMs permission to roleplay characters of different cultures, for now. As long as we follow their standards that are just broad & vague enough that anyone they don't like can still be accused of a hate crime.

orcs aren't real right?
So do orcs, in your mind, somehow make you think of a real-world race? If so, I'm pretty sure YOU are the blatant racist, my dude.
No, you didn't have anything to do with the deck of many things.
Stolen valor doesn't make you appealing. It is just you parasitically latching on to actual creativity you could never equal alone.
As a Salvadoran with Palestinian ancestry, I'm sure the best thing that could happen to the Palestinian people is for Hamas to completely disappear.
Those savage beasts do not represent the Palestinians.
Anyone who supports the Palestinian cause would make a great mistake
Note how much WotC has redacted on their entry on the Neogi. In original Spelljammer they were evil because they were slave traders. In the new version, they're evil because they're not emotional, apparently.
This isn't just changing words, it's erasing core themes.
Wizards of the Coast REALLY doesn't want its customers knowing what Kyle Brink said about a large portion of

So make sure to keep spreading the word!
Fanatic who wants to impose "consent rules" where a single whiny player has the power to stop an entire gaming group until they meet hir demands, also thinks the majority of the hobby should be kicked out of gaming without their consent.
So it's not really about consent at all;

An answer on this would be nice. Who wants to have their license pulled for writing orcs as villains because some nonce on the internet decided that orcs were somehow a racist caricature. 😒
A number of friends of mine who had stood firmly in support of the lockdown & the jabs all through 2020-2022 are now suddenly sharing anti-vax posts.
I mean, great they're on board now but it's a bit like a Parisian declaring support for the Resistance, in 1946.
It's pretty funny that I spent a good part of the first 30 years of my life fighting against the "Moral Majority"; & now it looks like I'm going to end up spending a good part of the next 30 fighting against the much worse "Immoral Minority".
@Wizards_DnD
The part that offended people, the Slavery element, was not from the 1980s

It was new. It's the part your Wokist writers added, because they saw "monkeys" and their racist minds immediately thought "black slaves".

"His Dark Materials" really is the defining story of a generation: young girl's parents are self-absorbed narcissists, so she decides to team up with witches to kill God.
WotC doesn't want to denounce what their no.2 man Kyle Brink said, but they sure don't want customers to see what he said. They're now blocking anyone who dares to share it!
So please share it!
@EldritchHorror3
Wrong. The Jedi fell because they became too complacent in their own successes. They weren't watching for the danger of the dark side enough.
For everyone trending the whole

No response at all from either

Still strange Kyle hasn't resigned to give his position to a PoC yet, maybe he thinks no PoC is capable?
Hundreds of people commented on WotC's horrible "thank you" video, thanking the actual creators of
#dnd
which WotC erased. All those comments were then DELETED by WotC.
It wasn't an accidental omission.
You won't be able to guess who the official D&D Youtube decided to say "thank you" to for D&D. Though you probably will be able to guess which names they completely erased from the official history..

Blocking an annoying person so you don't have to hear them anymore is NOT censorship.
Censorship is when you make it so OTHER PEOPLE don't even get the choice to decide if they want to hear what someone has to say.

No it absolutely wasn't that. There's no point in the entire prequel series where the dark side is presented as good, or the light side is evil.

Well the great lesson of every healthy religious system is we all fail to measure up all the time.
The difference between good and evil isn't the lack of sin, it's whether you react to your failure by continuing to seek the mark of good, or instead choose to wallow in wrongness.

This is always such a stupid argument. There's a complete difference in that the mind controlling squids are fantastical, while tacos and sushi a real world cultural anachronisms. So whether they can put it to words or not most gamers realize that having those present make for
