MODERATORS
This is not a place of acceptance. This is a left wing echo chamber. You either tow the narrative or GTFO.
I think of myself as very moderate. I'm neither supportive of right wing horse shit or the lefts batshit insanity. I'll get downvoted into oblivion every time for pointing out this place being extreme left, or for making any comment that doesn't align strictly with the narrative taking points.
what exactly is the left's batshit insanity in this instance? literally that the game lets you pick your pronouns?
did you know that fallout: a post-nuclear role playing game (1997) also allowed you to do this? a few other games that have let you do this are fallout 2 (1998), mass effect (2007), fallout 3 (2008), mass effect 2 (2010), skate 3 (2010), the elder scrolls 5: skyrim (2011 and also every year since), mass effect 3 (2013), fallout 4 (2015), sonic forces (2017), mass effect andromeda (2017), cyberpunk 2077 (2020), trackmania 2020 (2020), and literally every other game ever to feature a character creator. if this is batshit insanity, then i can't wait to find out what you think of unions.
Literally enlightened centrism.
Yah, how dare someone not be a polarised momo and make me have to assess their pov without a convenient label with which to dismiss it.
😄😄 No personal offence meant good sir.
You were wrong.
What narrative talking points? Gay people exist, trans people exists. There's nothing political about that. If you think otherwise you need to adjust thinking of yourself as a moderate.
Depends on the community. I have had reasonable results, but I do have to be extra careful. It probably helps that I'm kind of a stealth leftist.
Dude I thought reddit was leftist and then I came here. Funny thing is I'm a pansy lefty European (believe in social healthcare, UBI and all that good stuff) yet this place is a bit much for me.
I can deal with lefties a lot easier than r/politics types.
Great distinction.
