but also some normal liberals

entertaining sometimes, irritating at others

the only channal im in that has sjws isint a channal where talking politics is encouraged

Second time i was accused of something i wasnt was in that chat

yep

we resolved it ultimately but its stuck

the irritation of it

ive gotten muted before for riding the line

hwt

i dont talk to them anymore largely

they dont encourage it there but they have a channel for it if we reaaaaaly want to talk about it

we mostly use it for news

debates have largely slowed down since the thing with me tbh

some exceptions do occur though

the only other room im in where theres something kinda like sjws is this room owned by an alt anarcho communist. which is to say a traditional marxist

lol i can imagine

trouble i got in there was pointing out you cant be a skeptic if your only reply to facts about how race is real is to repeat over and over "anything to do with race is either skin color or fringe medical science"

Most times ive just debated with like the same guy for whatever reason about third party viability in the US

it comes up occasionally lol

oh yeah hes also one of those origenal skeptic types that followed in the footsteps of like thunderf00t n shit

only other time is with the not Vee Romanian I know

wait so what did you say?

the Romanian and I mostly just talk about the Skeptics occasionally, and how shity Romania is

i basicly pointed out all the actual differences between geographic genetic population groups then compounded that argument with pooling actual genetic study onto it

and i backed up my reason for it actually being important as medical reasons because there are serious medical reasons why race is a consern

So like biological/genetic differences must be taken into account to determine medical treatments best for an individual?

In addition to the things you'd normally think about, such as symptoms, severity, etc., yes

yes

Somewhat unrelated, but no matter what race you are, hope to never get hepatitis C

so like how blacks are more likely to get sickle cell than others?

I used to have to update the application forms for the "Newer Direct-Acting Antivirals" against Hepatitis C at my last job every year

8 page PDF

damn

doin good work doh

Yeah, except every state has their own variation on the standard form

oh thats kinda weird

yes like that

Well, some states *cough Illinois cough cough* don't care as much about some of the minor details as some other states, e.g. Vermont

though sickle cell is something your born with so its usually not something doctors need to ask you, but paramedics might want to be conserned with that as sickle cell will impact their job keeping you alive in an emergency

yea

i can believe that people have different medical inclinations based on race i just dont put any value in the whole IQ thing, mostly cause i dont view IQ as a quality level of ones intelligence even with test improvements.

i veiw iq as a quality level of ones intelligence, weve also found genes that we beleive to be related to different developments of inteligence in humans, weve also found different populations genes are different. i think genetics has an effect on your potental iq but dont think its the only factor. even so i dont think iq is the only important human trait

I believe as far as IQ is concerned, nurture is much more influential than nature

/\

Ill take Wisdom over Intelligence any day

It even means i can be a Wizard lel

I dunno, lots of good spells for wizards. Int is ususally not my dump stat

lol

Of course, the last few characters I've made have been completely random, i.e. I roll the die to determine everything, and then create a personality around the rolls

but seriously i think Wisdom being the overall collection of learned material has more value

i typically play Fighters or Rangers tbh

I really want to do like a Battle Mage thing doh

but the systems arent really set up for it

My friends and I are running a Tomb of Annihilation campaign every other weekend, and the first session none of us really wanted to do the kinds of characters we typically played

It's just become an unofficial thing for us now when our characters die

ah

people who focus on inteligence also tend to focus on inteligence being as we think, to on average coorispond to a lack of agression and likewise argue agression is a negitive trait. i dont personally agree with that

So for now I'm playing a Chaotic Neutral Half-Orc Paladin with a Pirate background

Im planning a Fallout tabletop with some friends just need to confirm schedules.

Got a DM too

If it's a Fallout tabletop, wouldn't it be a Vault Master?

I always thought the interpretation of intelligence was ones base capacity to learn, of which could be expanded on via nurture

Roll20

link me that though

we havent fully decided but we need to do it online

My friends and I use Roll20 and Discord for the actual voice chat

The voice chat in Roll20 is still a bit buggy

ah

good to know

good thing i made a post-apoc server already lol

mmm

Roll20 also has their "Quantum" dice roller, but most of us prefer to use our physical dice

although atm im limiting it to just personal friends

i may open it up if we do the podcast though

yea

i have physical

as does the DM

but idk about the others so

I bought a "Bag of Holding" a few years ago, so I've got something like 24 complete sets of dice

i use roll20 but once my professional subscription runs out im switching to fantasy grounds

i just have one set

its nice to only need to pay once

My friends and I just don't bother to pay

we're fine with just the free features

yea we are doing homebrew so we should be good

in fact we already have established lore and characters lol

probably should talk ttrps in <#464233883303673868>

ye

Yes, it's Patriots causing the violence

You know, the side without weapons

the firework grenade was a peace offering, it's part of antifa's culture

I'm surprised the media wasn't aware of that particular gesture's origins in Antifa culture

flash bangs are not peaceful

you dont like chuck it into a crowd just to celebrate

But are you a part of Antifa? How can you know that isn't their version of celebration?

All cultures are equal and antifa's culture of throwing explosives into crowds is as valid as any other. Stop shaming them !

i dont protect a terroist organization

if they need to be protected, it would be behind bars

it would be better for them than it would for us
