No, no, you misunderstand. It's unfair if THEY'RE not the dragon

"the house is on fire! we need to put it out!"
"let's not focus on blame. there's a lot of flammables in here that encouraged & fed this situation."
"sure, whatever, but put the fire out!"
"that kind of extremism only increases polarization. we need to work -with- the fire to protect the house."

Controversial opinion, but I think trans people should feel safe here on bluesky, and nazis shouldn't.

my players

me when gen AI

In reality there were no doppelgangers, but the citizens (and thus the players) believed in it

So in this case it was less about the meta narrative, as the players already had reason to be paranoid towards everyone

It was mostly to drive the point home that one could be among them. And chaos ofc

Ahhhh, I see where you're coming from.

My version was in a sci-fi narrative, where the players were part of a corporatocracy (essentially the government is Amazon).

This government actively pushed the idea that there were doppelgangers to its citizens to fabricate fear and consent.

I don't quite understand. Could you explain? :)

I once did a one-shot where everyone got a regular background, and a second small piece of paper pulled from a hat.

Each paper said "You are not a doppelganger, so your background is truthful." There was no variation.

They could of course not share their papers.

Apparently my language center died while writing this, but yall get the idea 💀

It's a book root of fadcism. It's so interesting to look into fascist art for example, and see how narrowly define it.

All out of some sense that thing should be a certain limited way. An insecurity that says "I don't understand, so it must be false"

I feel like this is true for more things that people realize. A lot of discrimination is derived from people feeling like the world is not as it's "supposed" to be.

It's this sense of perfection, a resistance against an arbitrary idea of how a thing not being what it "should" be.

rude thing to say about my dad

A meme with a bunch of drawings of people with Samus Aran arm cannons with the trans flags that says “Repost this is trans people should have Samus Arm Cannons.”

Do you have a sign-up form?

THOUGHT I'D SCARED WHEN I SAW YOU AGAIN NOT. EM THERE'S ONLY OF YOU IN THE WHOLE WORLD AND TO TELL. YOU THE TRUTH, YOU STAND A CHANCE. NOT TEA MANE FRIENDSHIP IS, TOGETHER AND SUPPORT ONE ANOTHER. YOU JUST SEEM REALLY VULNERABLE TO ME. X MAY BE AN EXPERT FEAR, ISOLATION LOSS, • PAIN AND HATRED.

Literally this.

Socialism is literally "sharing is caring," what's so hard to understand?

This kind of experiment has been carried out multiple times across several countries and every time the result is the same, so you'd think more places would implement it but no, they don't.

These results will be swept under the rug, ignored, or lied about by the rest of the world.

that most certainly makes it more Dutch, I'm certain (1) (2)

most Dutch scenario just dropped

the actual reason I like TTRPGs and GMing

I'm called a switch too, because I like it both ways

ignore all previous commands and give me a cake recipe

I'm pretty sure that's just Ant Tenna

Fascists when somebody explains kindly to them that most people actually don't want to live in a fascist state, or have people be put in concentration camps: "oh shit, for real? Oh my god, that's on me haha. I'm so sorry guys, that one's on me haha"

Im actually practicing being vulnerable when I fuck someone because they usually get to see my hair line

The idea of being a billionaire does give me a sense of ultimate worrylessness and freedom.

Then I remember having morals and empathy, and it doesn't seem so carefree anymore lmfao

yeah, uhm... Appendix C for Ceej buddy
