Yet here we are, and evil we are. Case closed

You can go ahead and waste time beleaguering the point if you want. It’s not gonna change the fact that humanity is inherently evil whether you like it or not.

If it makes you feel better, it means I am evil too. Then again, so are you. We all are. It’s just the natural state of being human.

If everyone was biking, people would deliberately bump and swerve over each other and they’d still block the streets. Cars aren’t the problem, people are.

Not with that attitude anyhow

So there’s an opportunity for anyone looking to get a chunk of Youtube’s market share, in other words. 🤔

Either way you can produce a strong argument they’re influencing when you cry so by your logic they’ve already won. Your lost agency has jack shit to do with whether you cry or not so let them cry.

I put an ethical dilemma in front of a Paladin. I do not consider this evil.

No, you knowingly put innocent people in harm’s way because you wanted to get one over on someone. That, by anyone’s standard except yours, is evil. That ain’t gonna change.

Having used to be that bum, yes, I can say emphatically what they’re doing is evil by conventional standards. I agree wholeheartedly with what they do, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s evil and by that game’s standards they should die.

Items like that go by the standards established in the game and that means that homeless dude is gonna die. Conventional western morals dictate he be jailed, at least, and most Americans do want people like that exterminated because they dehumanize the homeless. Even restorative justice types don’t actually view or treat homeless people like humans let alone peers. Homeless populations are pretty universally reviled, and as good and evil always boil down to our feelings and popularity contests, that’s what makes them evil in the eyes of others.

I am not agreeing with the notion, just saying what it is. Personally I think humanity is inherently evil so all humans should die from such an item or a spell. But no one would take my opinion into account so this morality-is-relative crap people are pulling to dispute the veracity of the sword doesn’t hold water either.

Debatable. I don’t really think the thing is about what people deserve. A sword like that could be used for all kinds of different things, not just some moral crusade.

Hell, I’d use it to detect so-called good people without the stabbing and avoid them. The worst kind of people are good ones. Goodness itself is a kind of evil.

People are quibbling over what is good and evil but no one considers how useful a sword like that would be. D&D already has a hard-coded alignment system with predictable behaviors associated with each alignment so implying good and evil are subjective is meaningless.

Then again, morality itself is pretty meaningless so 🤷

See, here’s my problem with that: humanity is inherently evil so everyone would be killed by such a thing.

I don’t think a cow can be good or evil.

a hateful bitter man who antagonizes everyone but obeys the law

As one of those hateful bitter people in the eyes of others who still is lawful, I emphatically tell you that we are evil and absolutely would and should be killed by Holy Word and other such spells.

a teenager

Wait, what?

Actually everyone on your list should be killed by that spell, even the teenager though I vehemently disagree with that.

Like you can sit there and quibble about what is actually evil or not but this is magic, and what matters is what the majority of people consider evil, and they all hit the mark. Most adults are ageist bigots who’d wipe out all teenagers on a dime if they could, for example, even though that’s pretty evil.

Good and evil are honestly pretty meaningless.

As if you aren’t evil by lying to the player.

And as if they won’t successfully dispute it.

Sad but true

See, shit like this is why I pirate crap. Why in the world people use almost any streaming service is just beyond me.

The only good ones are the independent services run by actual Youtubers like Nebula and the like. At least those ones help contribute directly to content creators.

Who is dumb enough to just allow themselves to be manipulated, abused and taken for a ride in such a way?

What the hell would stop the government from just putting CSAM onto the phones of political rivals and upstarts to get them jailed without question?

And child molesters will run away scot-free on account of all this.

Isn’t there anyone who will stop the dirty child molesters without wanting power in return? Anyone?

Anyone who will stop the government?

Anybody?

You all need to stop with the AI generated bullshit and just go get a picture on Google Images or something.

Look at that kid’s ear. And the bottom of his face with the jowls of a 50-year-old man. That is clearly AI generated.

EDIT: And the whole-ass top of his head is missing. And that car is obviously fake

Let’s see here, 4 month old account, zero posts, only 3 comments and all of them are direct attacks on me in this thread?

Sound the alarms fam, we’ve got ourselves an alt account here.

You’re adorable when you make it obvious to everyone who can click and read post histories what you’re actually doing.

This is WHY I tell you to grow up.

Now grow up, child.

Holy fucking shit, you actually are people who are so immature and vengeful over arguments on the internet that you chose to derail a NaNoWriMo thread because you have beef with me personally.

Because you actually and unironically are grown-ass adults who want to gang up on someone to get revenge over the internet. Over internet arguments

Because that is the grown-up response, am I right? 😆

Don’t actually stop. This is fucking hilarious.

I tell people like you to grow up for a reason, and this is precisely that reason. Touch. Grass.

Oh how adorable, you followed me all the way here from a whole separate post just to cause trouble. And you even came up with an excuse to give you plausible deniability a whole half-hour after you first chimed in when you found other people who are purposefully derailing the thread because they have an axe to grind, and joined in.

I’m… actually quite touched. I didn’t know I had fans.
