Blue checkmark checks out.
“I cast that wish at level 9” is a weird phrasing. So far as I know Wish is already level 9, so there’s no other level to cast it at. Older editions had “limited wish” but I don’t believe they had upcasting. It feels very “how do you do fellow children”
It’s kinda “fellow kids” but also a lot people don’t know the rules of the games they play.
This one’s a fascist tho, so fuck them.
I love threads where there’s the one person downvoting a benign comment, like “fuck fascists.” It must be lonely on Lemmy for those people. I sure hope it is.
Suffer being ostracized, downvoting fascist.
Unfortunately there seem to be a not-insignificant number of accelerationist tankies on various instances, so I’m sure fascists habe someone to hold hands with and trash on the rest of the political spectrum.
All they ever do is “No, u…!”
Haven’t had an original thought since 1936.
Reactionary politics in a nutshell
Can’t cast Wish @ level 9. Gotta be at least level 17. Git good newb
But it’s a 9th level spell. Don’t make me bust out the chart.
This is one of my favorite parts of sitting out playing music by my “resist fascism” sign.
Yeah this happened once during the 2020 July protests in Serbia. As we walked, we passed a WW2 memorial and the guy leading the group took a moment to stop, comment on it and chant “death to fascism” a few times. Then out of the blue two guys started yelling “death to communism”.
To be fair, “death to fascism, freedom to the people” is a communist slogan known by everyone from ex-Yugoslavia, but getting triggered by someone disavowing fascism right next to a statue that shows how fascists murdered civilians in raids in your own city is… worrying.
Not by accident, Serbia is like the MAGA lovin’ south of Europe, complete with the ignorant meat-heads gargling Putin’s balls.
Weird how every anticommunism turns out to be fascism putting on a performance for libs.
Maybe we should stop listening, and start doing.
For some reason there seems to be this idea that everything must either be fascist or communist or somewhere between. Like they don’t believe in the existence of other political philosophies.
They’re obsessed with the political spectrum being one-dimensional, it isn’t.
Ah yes, the two genders
The next chant should be “death to fascism, death to capitalism”
Fascism is a feature of capitalism, not a bug. We need to go back to the correct timeline. Socialism was the improvable system. Capitalism is social darwinism (read: a lie)
No self awareness lmfao I love it when people accidentally tell on themselves like this, is there a name for it?
Ever say “Fuck Nazis” and some fuck face goes “Of course you would make fun of conservatives you lib!”.
Wonderful feeling.
In my experience they never get it. It is fun to make fun of them. Once they reveal themselves, they become very predictable and even when called out as to how they will respond, they do it anyway like an npc.
“Politically motivated assassinations”? Should we bring up the comparative list of politically-motivated extremist incidents in the US and see which side is enacting most of the violence?
“politically motivated assassinations?” like the two Democratic politicians who were just murdered yesterday in Minnesota?
I like how it’s “politically motivated assassinations” while graffiti on a Tesla is terrorism.
Including the ones in Minnesota today?
The Minnesota ones are particularly interesting. The Democrats had a one-seat advantage in both chambers of the Minnesota legislature. The assassin specifically targeted one Democratic member of each chamber. The Minnesota House is now tied, and the Senate will be tied until Hoffman is able to work or (or Minnesota allows it, I’m not sure) is about to designate someone to vote for him.
There should be rules that disincentive assassination so this doesn’t happen again.
Like, “murder is illegal”? Cuz, that’s one lol
Specifically, any one party shouldn’t be able to take advantage of a momentary shift in power due to an assassination of a member in the other party.
Obviously there is still enough incentive. Maybe the legislature should still get her vote, from like a deputy or assistant of some kind.
well the FBI said there’s not enough evidence…
/s
Sam’s a real one. The whole group are, but of them all, Sam’s the one I’d least want to go toe to toe with in an argument.
Dude’s sharp as fuck.
Matt would be too nice to tear you to shreds in an argument. Many of the others probably just wouldn’t engage. Sam enjoys conflict and uncomfortable situations.
That’s some kind of weird superpower in my eyes.
Thing is, so do I. I would love the spar, but know when I am outmatched.
“I cast that wish at level 9” I had to check the context to make sure that was a DnD thing and not some bizarre sovcit trend.
It’s also already a ninth level spell, so saying he’ll cast it at level nine is meaningless and a failed attempt to establish nerd cred.
these are so cringe lol. It sounds like it is coming from someone who once read something on the internet and pretends like he has been part of this since college
I remember some YouTuber ranting about this. About how none of these people yelling about how their favorite games are going woke are actual players. I don’t have any evidence either way, but it wouldn’t surprise me if a lot of these folks are just random alt-right wingnuts trying to stir shit up. (Or nowadays AI wingnuts.)
Kinda like ranting about movies and games “go woke, go broke” and yet these media end up being blockbusters. These alt right and AI shit stirrers have huge backing from billionaires who want to world to end up in fascism.
It’s referring to a scene involving Sam Riegel in the first Critical Role campaign. He’s basically establishing he’s a ‘fan’, though also being a Nazi is weird af.
Hell yeah, Scanlan Shorthalt et al!
One hell of a mouth on that one
This has many valid interpretations
and he has joked about all of those interpretations on camera!
Giggety
sigh
I don’t want to be fair to fascists but the current social context does align leftism with labeling the fascists/GOP as “fascists”.
Similarly to how 15 years ago someone shouting “let’s go, Brandon!” would make you check that hadn’t been teleported into the middle of a little league baseball game versus now where you just check how close the nearest exit is.
That’s cause the modern GOP ARE fascists…
I suppose I shouldn’t say anything bad about Nazis, either, since the GOP gets compared to Nazis? Give me a break. Maybe instead of listening for dog-whistles, they should look into why those comparisons are being made in the first place.
Do I sound like I care that Nazis are malding? If so, pardon me. I’m just saying it doesn’t feel like much of a gotcha to say “they’re answering to ‘fascists’!” when they’re rightfully called “fascist” more than their political party nowadays.
