The Culture: The Bros Notice A Pattern

(Following from yesterday's post.)

BDubs is on to something here.

The main reason the #osr and others have an emotional response to the #brosr saying “you’re playing #dnd wrong” is they, like most people in the current year, reject objective reality. They want to rule zero g333nder so why wouldn’t they do the same to their ttrpg game?

It honestly IS absurd a #ttrpg gaming group would claim that game rules can be #ObjectivelyCorrect in a world where much of the population is scared to give the definition of “woman”. But #osr and such realize if we’re taking #dnd THIS seriously then we take morals just as srsly

The objections follow a pattern. BDubs explains a common element in that pattern. It seems absurd until the details about the objectors surface and the pattern holds.

The same behavioral tells that flared when Pundit sperged out come up time and again. Normies don't think this is appealing, but self-delusion is strong.

The Supreme Dark Lord nailed this type years ago.

Sooner or later, all of the Gamma tells come up with most naysayers. Like dealing with a Tankie, this outs them as bad faith actors who are unworthy of engagement, and Normies have no patience for that.

The good faith actors--and they do exist--either come join us or acknowledge the position being correct and that they are not playing a proper RPG but some non-game.

As this is happening as an underground rumbling while Magic-Users By The Water and the orbiters trying to feed themselves of its scraps make lots of noise, expect a lot of people to be taken by surprise when this avalanche hits them and shows them just how unnecessary they are.

The cancer is being cut out, piece by piece.
