Crackbone posted:WotC is still a messed up company, but that invoke predjudice poo poo happened 25 years ago. Their current art is super progressive in terms of representation. They cut ties with artists who’ve been overtly CHUD-like. So maybe let that complaint go? Terrible Opinions fucked around with this message at 18:03 on Apr 25, 2021 |

Like trying to drop it before for being off topic before but the specific example that keeps bothering me is Enduring Renewal a card that is mechanically unique and available for stuff on MTGO and still have no other arts than the one by the nazi. That's the only way you can get it to this day from WotC on their only digital format for playing older sets. His version of Sylvan Library is still in the game and pops up with regularity in legacy and vintage events. Like yeah good that they got rid of the KKK card and I'm sure their contracts screw over artists enough that he isn't seeing money from it, but his other poo poo is still in the game on the only platform where they can just change it with a patch.

Well the Republicans opposed any accountability of rapists to begin with, and US media is generally aligned with at least one of the two ruling parties. So when the dems decided sexual assault wasn't actually bad to protect their boy large media groups weren't willing to cover anything.

The only instance I can think of with full on mistaken identity was the one guy impersonating Mike Portnoy to have sex under false pretenses and steal from fans. Even then the mistake was due to the guy intentionally impersonating someone not just a mistake on the victim's end.

The only real problem with feet guys the ones who do the pretending it's not sexual and try to insert it into inappropriate situations. Though I assume most feet people understand social boundaries and just don't bring it up in inappropriate situations.kaworu posted:This is what I was trying to get at before. Does great art make these transgressions more excusable, somehow? Seems like it does. I mean, whether I agree with that or not, I feel some inherent cultural bias telling me that it's somehow OK or not as bad when truly brilliant/gifted people do this sort of thing as opposed to when some schlub does it.

Also don't normal prop guns have different chamber sizes from real guns to prevent this very thing from happening? Like he wasn't firing a prop gun he was firing a normal gun that was just pinky promise filled with blanks.

Just Chamber posted:I feel like keeping the discussion rational and level headed when it comes to topics/ a topic as serious as this is important. Plus it largely went off topic anyway. But yea not a fan of people tarring a whole country ( one I live in) with a disgusting brush when the sad reality is perhaps their country doesn't seem as bad because their country isn't actually investigating this stuff and haven't had anybody uncovering whatever repugnant poo poo went on with their people in power. The sad thing is it just feels like people smugly looking across at England, Hollywood etc and going "heh at least my country isn't as bad/ doesn't have a bunch of abusers" when actually it goes on everywhere and that's loving depressing.

Thing for all the argument of mutual abuse existing or not, that should not matter. This was not a trial to establish Depp was abused it was a trial specifically to punish Heard for talking at all about Depp's abuse. So weekly font I have no idea what you're arguing about. Saying she was abusive as well (which I don't believe, but just for sake of argument) should not matter. Someone doing something wrong should not make it a crime for them to then talk about something being done wrong to them. But it has because of the dumpfuck jury, and all you're doing is arguing for enabling abusers to more easily use the legal system to silence victims.

I thought they were being asked if it was slander/libel which is quite obviously should not have been. Were they being asked for something else?
