I hope you have a job that's difficult to automate, along with the necessary skills to avoid getting replaced by a robot if you happen to lose that job.

@catchamber

Thank you, I should be all set on both counts.

And on the off chance that we do end up in an automated hellscape in which billionaires by really expensive catfood from each other in place of genuine mass markets. I can always set up a line of those designer babies everyone got so excited about!

Christopher Columbus - the one immigrant in all history whom the liberals think had no right to be in America.

@mdk

When a nation of immigrants who stole a country complain about immigrants trying to steal 'their' country.



EDIT: Inb4 'it wasn't a country until we got there' arguments. I'm using a general term of 'land/area/territory' to make the quip work better.

Every country has done terrible things, but I've never seen a country try to deny or justify them quite like the USA.

Hi?

@TheEvanCat

Hi!

But tbh I've never known a 'mild' political discussion.

@Silver Carrot

That's sort of the joke of the title, but despite the people who call this thread a trashfire (ironically the same people who cant resist posting in said trashfire) I feel like its healthy to have a mostly free speech zone where people can vent their edgier views. But as far as some of the topics in this thread, native american history is very tame.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

If you believe the current topic to be very political, like @Dynamo Frokane implied, it goes far, far deeper from there down the rabbit hole. Come to reminisce about it for a moment, I believe we have covered the majority of topics. Not to say they are ever open and shut cases, nothing is with politics.

If you wish to throw your lot in, feel free to do so, @Silver Carrot, @TheEvanCat.

What are we talking about again?

@Silver Carrot

I agree, my country is overall more left wing than america , they really do have a monopoly on the extreme ends of the spectrum. As liberal as europe is, we dont have the same psycho communist/stalin problem that a lot of radical hard left americans have, plus they got a shit load of weapons.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

Whatever somewhat political topic you wish, @Silver Carrot. We tend not to stay to any topic more than a page or two here. Usually we say what we have to say then some other topic arises; debates or discussions are hardly official.

[Silver Carrot]

@The Harbinger of Ferocity

I have a lot of political opinions but they're generally not welcome in the circles I frequent because I'm a game loving, anime loving nerd who's also a social democrat and a feminist XD

@Dynamo Frokane

The basics of society are push and pull. When the government/the youth culture/large groups in general push one way, the rest of society will pull the other way.

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

They cannot be too much worse than what we have seen here before, @Silver Carrot. From a cursory overview this is fairly tame, at least by the Guild's standards and those in general I might add further. Here at least you should be free to express them, provided you do not personally attack people and stick to only arguing their opinions. Before it went without saying too, but as of somewhat recent times, it needs be brought up you are also held to Roleplayer Guild's rules given that is the host.

@The Harbinger of Ferocity

lol that is true. I like to think I have a very reasonable and flexible mindset that can be expanded or even changed with new information.

[Kratesis]

Yeah we've had actual communists in this thread before. Have we had Nazis yet? They're all over /pol/ right now but I'm not sure if they've spread yet.

(What ever happened to the communist guys anyway?)

[Silver Carrot]

@Kratesis

There are no Nazi's here because they're all stuck in the 1940's

Ooooohhhhh!!!!

[The Harbinger of Ferocity]

Does being called a Nazi count? By today's standards that is supposed to mean something, @Kratesis. As for our actual professed and implied communists, I have not seen them here in a great amount of time. They disappeared some months back, I believe their domain is largely in Spam however.

[Kratesis]

@Silver Carrot 4chan must be a time machine lol.

@The Harbinger of Ferocity

I believe their domain is largely in Spam

They're rousing the proletariat against us.

[Silver Carrot]

@Kratesis

4chan is a time machine. /pol/ is mentally stuck in 1940's Germany and /b/'s stuck in 2006

[Kratesis]

@Silver Carrot In many ways I would agree.
