Hiding behind the editorial board too. Fucking cowards.
(Most) people here aren’t really volcel. It’s just good to have a culture of not encouraging people to be horny online, especially in a space that can be male dominated. Helps keeps the creepiness down.
I am unable to link this tweet because the slur filter does not like this person’s username.

Absolutely incredible mindset here.
Juche technomancy. :kim-drip:
I just think WH40k kind of fails as satire because the type of storytelling they need to do is basically incompatible with satire. Like they have this long running universe with sure this evil fascist state, but contrasted against literal gods of death and decay and demons, which naturally makes even the fascists seem good in comparison. Also you publish like 60 books a year about the adventures of space marines from a variety of authors that clarity of satire is going to be lost rather quickly.
Someone pay me to talk about trains for 8 hours at a time please.
Star Wars is meant to be lighthearted and mostly for kids, but there definitely is some critique of empire, and like The Emperor manipulating war to gain power was partially inspired by George Bush during the Iraq war.
Mass Effect is kind of interesting because they do deal with some issues relevant to real world politics, particularly like the way the genocide of the Krogan is justified and carried out, but it also does silly shit like having species of aliens who are always bad guys.
Wine tasters in the first world getting vaccinated before doctors in the third. Probably says something about inequality or something.
Lmao, they can't talk about Biden or else Democratic voters might get buyer's remorse if they realize they were sold a lie about things getting better.
You heard it here first, folks. The left loves an anticommunist right-wing autocrat because of something most of them believe was BS.
This is an account that spends 24 hours a day talking about how much they hate the left. So she thinks she’s doing an epic bit.
You know, I've read the HP books within the last 5 years (pls no reeducation camp) and I don't remember her writing being this awful and stilted. I guess it's really true that hate and bigotry rots your brain.
