Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation
Brilliant! Mind if I compile this and post it to the WFRP Gamemasters group on FB as an example of right wing social commentary? With proper credit of course.

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation
You guys should write this up and put it out there. I bet the WFRP community would be really impressed with your clever take on trans issues.

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation
Yeah, I like that. Or perhaps Arry the Ogre (only you’re not allowed to call him that any more... now he’s identifying as a Halfling his new name‘s Smiley Happyfeet) should be an over-the-hill or second rate Ogre wrestler. Of course, now he’s competing as a Halfling he’s suddenly world champion... ...

Re: Thought Experiment: EW with bad guy PCs
Based on my experiences playing evil campaigns, TEW would be far too long for a thought experiment. Most of the satisfaction of playing an evil PC comes from entertaining the other players with your interpretation. Players don't tend to derive much enjoyment from committing evil acts in-game.

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation
If anything that kind of humorous scenario hook can make some lovely 2020 commentary on the controversies facing cis-female athletes. Just the kind of "thought provoking" content I'm sure everyone will welcome. It's nicely subversive too by illustrating the absurd arguments that transphob...

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation
It's not as much a fear of speaking out against fascism, but an understanding that it is more complicated than "They're the bad guys, we're the good ones (and so it is all right to use violence against them)." Yes, fascism and fascist ideas must be opposed, but without understanding where...

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation
in Passant's defense, where he's from may have a wildly different history with racism than where other members of the community are from so his group likely has no issues with things i, as an american, would steer well away from. it's important to remember when online racism isn't something with a ...

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation
Perhaps the confusion come from the word "debatable" ? I don't think fascism is debatable as in "perhaps it could be good, perhaps not", I think fascism in history can be discussed. English is not my primary language, I probably used a formulation not suitable in English and if ...

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation
Wow, I think there is confusion here. Where would I defend facism ? I speak about history, and I never spoke about "desirable form of governement". I spoke about context, and why an ideology or a politic would be thought after/effective in a certain historical context. The fact that I sai...

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation
I'm not offended, actually, I just don't understand how those tweaks can be justified. :) You're veering awfully close to defending fascism though, with the early Mussolini example. Is that really the kind of edgelord WFRP game that you think we should be exploring in 2020 - what-if scenarios in wh...

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation
I was interested to know if people here think that there is any subject that should not be in any (TT)RPG, and, at the same time, if people here think that certain feelings (for want of a better term) should be avoided in (TT)RPGs, and, at the same time, if people here think that those subjects and...

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation
I truly have problems seeing the problem in, say, violent Drow society or Orcish intelligence malus. I don't understand why it would be of any impact for real humans or life. I am somewhat disturbed by people getting really offended by attacks on fascism, misogyny and trivial D&D species tweaks...

Re: WFRP Social Justice & Representation
Actually they do. Fascists are humans, as well as communists, capitalists, christians, muslims, buddhists or any member of any "community" you could find. They are flawed, they have emotions, reasons, fears. Fascists ar not "evil", they are humans with disputable political, ecno...

Can i take it from what has been written above, that some people here don't think that rape (to take the example that's come up), implied or otherwise, should be a part of an RPG?
