    The brutal persecution of Japanese Christians by despots doesn’t make me particularly happy. The events the book/movie are based on are horrifying, by all accounts—forcing Christians to trample icons is evil. The Jesuits weren’t colonizers, they were evangelists, and evangelism isn’t automatically bad just because it’s WeSTeRN. Persecution and the systematic extermination of a minority aren’t somehow justified because that minority poses a threat to the status quo. 

     

    Also, Peter Maurin would be my pick! Seeger would be up there too, though. 

     

    i was gonna say ‘this motherfucker is gonna say Dorothy Day’

     

    what do you think that the Jesuit’s in the Americas weren’t colonizers then? It was just the people around them? You are probably more learned on this sorta thing than me but still............. seems a bit of a yikes from me dog... The ‘evangelizing’ was bad because everywhere these missionaries went death and destruction was wrought. Cultures and peoples destroyed utterly. A defense of that.......... HMmmm........

  2. all mods are bastards not approving my ****....

     

    if you’ve seen Silence, were you able to watch it with any amount of like support for the colonizers? i couldn’t help but think ‘yeah no **** these guys they should be merked’

     

    what 20th century american labour movement person would you like to revive and talk to the most. mine’s definitely gotta be Pete Seeger ‘cause of his music, but that’s a bit lame so lets say Lucy Parsons would be cool

  3. don’t you think that the study of ‘western classics’ is an inherently white supremacist and chauvinistic act? that the entire basis of some form of western canon is the brutal subjugation of all but wealth white men?

     

    who all had like really **** ideas in general too ******* francis bacon my ass habsburg looking motherfucker

    I will be answering sincerely, thus making your point chidlish? how about that?

     

    I have always argued that Lord of the Craft is the best place to roleplay. And roleplay is fun, if not incredibly toxic and brain worms inducing and destroys the brains of literally everyone who engages in it in any serious capacity that isn’t D&D with IRL friends.

     Nah its not really meant to be a competition. Just if something is exceptionally great people have the change to get the tag. I could word that better in the post in a sec 

     

    yeah i was overtly aggressive, in the past it’s always been a ‘vote for the best one at the end’ thing iirc and i don’t think that’s very much in the spirit of just sharing your art or whatever. so that’s good gj everyone is happy

  6. it’s impossible to analyze the server objectively, for anyone. so it’s kinda dumb and pointless to try to talk about the server being ‘more toxic’ or some other falsifiable thing.

     

    i got unbanned like 2 weeks ago so here’s my thoughts coming from a year ago to now

     

    lore **** is dumb and will forever be dumb no matter what is done

     

    any mentality of running LotC like a business is ******* cancer and will be forever cancer for any online community period. profit motive doesn’t make a fun server. and tarrebear person sorta mentioned in that newsletter than LotC was trying to get away from that, yet under-went some 2009 corporate restructuring of staff into vague and ill defined categories for no reason. or, finances are still completely opaque-- how much does LotC get per month, how much is paid out to Tythus (who I know has got paid before, have to assume he still does), how much gets paid to people who do actual work for the server (graphic designers, media people, etc). Why not just make a post every month showing how much was donated, how much was spent, how much is saved? If it’s not a business, stop treating it like one.

     

    why the **** does Fireheart have an attack helicopter joke as his persona? not even you ******* gender fascists haven’t found that **** funny for like 5 years, FOH with that? yeah nitpicky ‘waah sjw!!’ thing but imagine a ‘leader’ on the server implying you’re a joke? disgusting **** imo

     

    also damn this **** gets taken way too seriously
