While there are zero prophecies left to be fulfilled, AND like five of them have been fulfilled in the last decade, if there is a supernatural Jesus to come back, we still have a long way to go to match the worldwide suffering seen in Revelations before Jesus's return.

Not exactly wrathful, more like, he shows up when there's a lot of ambient wrath going on. Mainly he just resurrects all who died in faith and sets up a judgment throne.

And he won't kill them, just they don't get heaven. The sheep and goats judgment. The section that "What you have done to the least of those, you have done to me" comes from there.

Honestly I think the existential suffering brought about by realizing that they have no place in heaven after a lifetime of religious lip service is FAR more poignant than any death could be

Not that most lemmings think this is anything more than a long repeated fairy tale, granted

Pretty sure if Jesus came back today conservative evagenlicals would send him to a concentration camp

Why would you consider it weird?

Conservatism is an exclusionary framework, it divides sharply 'us' vs 'them'

When we say "Maybe poor people deserve medical care too", they hear "I will have to work to pay the bills of someone I hate"

So, yes, inclusion is directly contrary to their core values, and they have learned that whenever they shout the word 'Political!' it gets people to back down, so they use it ALL the fucking time

they're already foolish enough without you having to strawman them...

It's not stupid, it's an effective tactic because dems are obsessed with appearing proper

the right doesn't even care about the correct meaning, all they know is that whenever they shout about it dems back off

It's how they roped Biden into going 'tough on crime' in the 90s

It IS ideological that we demand due process, because our ideologies support freedom and personal expression, and it IS abhorrent to them that we have ideologies strong enough to fight over

Their ideologies all form around harming others, of COURSE anything humane will piss them off

The world would be so much better if they stopped being so concerned with what other consenting adults are doing in private.

You have just figured out 40% of GOP insanity right there.

"How does he get to be a pretty woman when I cant? Well I'll show him!" (the misgendering was intentional and hypothetical to make a point, mods pls)

I think the more complete question is: Is sexual repression common among conservatives the root of their infantile lashing out against LGBTQ+?

We wouldn't be here today if the DNC didn't cripple Bernie's primaries

histrionics

You really don't understand how fucking sexist that word is, do you?

What a stupid comment to get blocked over

 

'Be nice' is a great idea in concept but when it comes down to concrete justification for post deletions and bans, it just becomes a general tool of oppression

Simply disagreeing with a political position has triggered rule #1 bans and removals across several subs, Gaza is a great example of this.

If we just want to keep pretending that mods are any different here than reddit, then they need to be held to a better degree of responsibility when it comes to their abuse of overly broad definitions.

 

I cannot stand Forgotten Realms. Never liked it going all the way back to 2nd edition.

Greyhawk was a MUCH better setting, with a more cohesive vision and CERTAINLY a much more interesting cosmology

Forgotten Realms is a hodge-podge of 20 settings glued together with zero appreciation for thematic crossover that has been revamped and rebooted so many times that substantial class mechanic differences DEPEND ON WHAT ERA YOU ARE PLAYING IN! That is fucking INSANE

Greyhawk presented an eternal timelessness where you could drop in on any era without having to read 5+ years of errata notes on why they renamed the negative energy plane and whether or not you are allowed to cast anything above 3rd level

The Great Wheel was, is, and will ALWAYS be the most fertile and relatable cosmology that has ever existed in a d20 setting and they changed it purely for CHANGE'S SAKE!

TL;DR: Fuck Forgotten Realms, LONG LIVE GREYHAWK!

Apologies for the handful of pixels, Standard Def was terrible but that's all we had

 

So I just had a mod out a harassment report I had made to the very people that have been harassing me, connect it with my username, and be dismissively mocking about it.

This is absolutely the kind of reddit behavior I left there to avoid.

Of course all of you will tell me "But itsn't against any rules", and I counter: It creates a hostile environment which is explicitly against the rules.

I've searched and scoured and the only thing I've found is to post to this community. That feels strange as this isn't a technical issue.

Is there anything to be done about this or do I just leave Lemmy too?
