Ever say "Fuck Nazis" and some fuck face goes "Of course you would make fun of conservatives you lib!".

Wonderful feeling.

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 51 points 1 week ago

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?

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 84 points 1 week ago (2 children)

Including the ones in Minnesota today?

[–] aramis87@fedia.io 22 points 1 week ago (5 children)

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.

I like how it's "politically motivated assassinations" while graffiti on a Tesla is terrorism.

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.

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.

Not by accident, Serbia is like the MAGA lovin' south of Europe, complete with the ignorant meat-heads gargling Putin's balls.

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)

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.

[–] merc@sh.itjust.works 14 points 1 week ago (2 children)

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.

Um, actually Wish is always cast at level 9.

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 9 points 1 week ago

As of this month I am 31 years clean from D&D. And even I knew that wish is always cast at level 9.

"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"

[–] qarbone@lemmy.world 31 points 1 week ago (3 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 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.

[–] Quetzalcutlass@lemmy.world 82 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (2 children)

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.

[–] Lazhward@lemmy.world 38 points 1 week ago

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.

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

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

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.)

Agree with antifascist stuff. Just nitpicking the fascist idiot's idiotic words: what the hell is an example of a non-politically-motivated assassination?? isn't every assassination politically motivated?

[–] neons@lemmy.dbzer0.com 16 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Financially-motivated assassinations? Having someone killed before they can disown you?

isn’t every assassination politically motivated?

We can go further and describe everything we do and every way in which we interact with others as "politically motivated" because politics is literally just dealing with someone else. If there were two people left on earth, there would be politics. If there was only one person left, there would finally be no politics.

And that's my platform when I run: no more politics 2028! lets gooooo!
