hello fellow right wing death squads!

I just found out about this server, even though matt talks about it every week

<:Yayy:414176519741767681>

Welcome

do the glorious leaders ever venture into here to chat?

No

Nope

lol so whats the point of the server then? just to gush?

What finally inspired me to actually download discord and join was I wanted to try and get Matt to see this game being kickstarted

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/williamdalebout/virtue-signal-the-game-of-social-justice/comments

More or less. Just to chat with other fans when the call-in show isn't happening

I guess I could do the call in show

what is that, $5?

No. Call in is free.

Calling in is free, but first-come-first-served

Just got to get on the list

You might be thinking of the superchats

ah yeah must be

maybe I'll just superchat it then

and link it there

If you want Matt to see it, you could just email him about it. It's probably the best way to share anything with him

done and done!

Hope he mentions it

Oh sweet it’s fully funded

yeah it's actually something of an issue. just like video games board games are absolutely infested with SJWs

the designer got banned from boardgamegeek

and they are probably going to put the hammer on this

I love board games. Yep. It’s a problem

boardgamegeek is THE mecca of boardgaming, and of course its gone fully communist

That’s sad. For the most part they’re really good reference

as long as you stick to the games themselves its probably fine

but of course some games have 'controversial topics'

Oh no

Tim pool did a video on the colonizing africa game that got shut down

by schreeching mobs

Da collection

oh not bad! I think the only game I have in that pile is settlers of catan

I play huge strategy games mostly

We want to try gloomhaven and TE

Our family has a group that plays regularly

TE?

Gloomhaven is an absolute monster from what I've heard

8 hour ply times

At the point where your game takes more than an hour or two I dont see why I wouldn't just go to PnP RPGs

some of my collection

Twilight Empereon

well at least for me, its a very different kind of game than an RPG

I probably misspelled that

oh that TE

I cant stand long board games but I do play DnD

I think its Imperium

so TI

Ah

anyway, yeah that's 8-12 hours too so bring some coffee

I think we have enough table space we could stop playing and come back to it

I'm also into a Monsterpocalypse which is a godzilla style miniatures game that like matt's channel is woefully under appreciated

Tbh some of them are basically just more restrictive D&D though. Like my sister was getting into Arkham and shit, and from what she was telling me the long form version is just babby D&D with premades. Also not a fan of either spending a full day on one game or finding a way to save progress

I spent $3,000 on a boardgaming table with a lid

so to save it, just put the lid on

I want one of those so bad

I thought I'd never get one, then bitcoin exploded

I had bought a bitcoin back when it was $50

my wife couldn't even stop me

I bought the table first

then told her we had bitcoin money

If you play often that’s money well spent

well I try to, it's hard to get 4-6 people to sit down in a room and play for 6-8 hours

I guess I could take a page from beeman and play shorter games

like "virtue signal"

Shorter is a relative term when it comes to boardgames

It really depends on the group

Catan can take ages with the right group

Especially if you’re with expanded amount of players

How long did it take to get your table?

4 months from placing the order I think

boardgametables.com

Pins and needles?

While waiting?

Yall could probably make a nice one for less money

Perhaps

yeah probably, but I live in a townhouse and dont have a lathe

yeah it was a long wait, I've wanted that table for years

I'm surpised how civil it is in here I was expecting a room of Kevin Flanigans

based on how blonde reacts to the chats

everyone trying to outdo each other in spicy hot takes

It's always crazier during the streams, especially the call-in show

Yep

It seems most people have a good filter on here.

FTMP

god... we're reading Zinn out loud in class today. Zinn is the worse historian

whomst

I thought you said you were reading invader zim for history

<:pepeDream:612092209545740298>

Howard Zinn, the communist historian whos dead set on showing us how bad America is and thinks that "America doesnt deserve to exist"

<:smug:604574733895467038>

Wasn’t his name brought up during the dem debate?

hes a god among men to the dems

I used to be a dem

I thought Beto quoted him

Matt styx and sargon converted me

and dave rubin

I wouldn't be surprised if he did

Styx probably convinced me that Trump will win 2020

I was HORRIFIED Trump won in 2016, now I'm probably going to vote for him. such a weird world

lol yep

my mom cried

I am pretty sure he will win

I don't see anyone leaving the trump camp to go dem

Gotta make sure everyone votes or he wont

but I see lots of people like myself

You'll get Hillary'd

And Warren is probably the single worst choice the dems could have put up

short of runing hillary again

I think it was Ben who started me off, then it went on to sargon, then i found Milo, then i found blonde and here i am now

Ben Shaprio?

Yes

same, somewhat

I just recently unsubbed from DW, they are too Neocon for my taste

@The Bitter Draught That wait you had for your table is what I’m going through waiting on having the money for an AR. Only longer

I was always a fire breathing conservative, I just didn't connect it to politics til 2013

i feel like this whole political environment that cultivated after Trump was elected and people made the biggest fuckin fuss about actually pushed a lot of people into politics, probably making a lot more people that will vote

I thought they stopped making ARs?

Colt did

For civilians

@The Bitter Draught you can still find Colt ARs floating around

they're just kinda pricey now

sounds like hes waiting for a gun to be made for him

like its on order

I agree with blonde on most everything now, i was always a conservative but I was moderate now im much more red

lol same @Neon_Flipflop

Na. Just waiting on tax return season

I'm probably much closer to Matt and the libertarians

Same

In a vacuum, I am too

but the facts on the ground are what they are

I do appreciate the need to oppose the left vigorously

Im on the deep red spectrum where I value traditionalism a *lot* more than i did back then

repeal the 19th is something Blonde got me seriously considering

I agree

haha, that will never happen

yeah

I'm not quite on board with that

I am a woman **repeal the 19th**

consider away, but its impossible

I don’t agree with her but enjoy the argument

there will never be a "step back" in "progress", people never go for it

although I want the 17th and 16th repealed

income tax is a plague

I know its impossible

I want the NFA repealed

^

I mean short of a full 'reboot' of the political system

'reboot' is what we need

which is becoming more and more an option

The more they encroach on freedom

I would actually buy an AR if I thought a reboot was coming

one of the first things I decided on that made me realize I was beginning to turn conservative was that gay people shouldn't raise children. I bet my mom and her girlfriend wouldn't be too happy to hear that opinion of mine.

<:smug:604574733895467038>

and/or fly my family to Korea to live with my wife's family

oh boy

@The Bitter Draught better to have an AR and not need it, than not have it and need it

Well my grandparents had guns in the house, and my uncle told them when he was a teenager he loaded it and put it to his head, but thankfully did not pull the trigger

Im just a traditionalist and that frowned upon in todays society of women power and slut culture

so I want to make sure my son is not going to be full of teenage angst

before I get one

yeah I've heard when you do that you realize how much you value your life

A safe is necessity in your case

^

well my primary reason would be home defense, and a gun in a safe is not useful for home defense

at leas that is what I would tell my wife

yeah if you cant keep a gun safe, get one of those action locks to put on it

your other option is keep it on your person

"defending the republic from leftists" would not fly with her

it sucks because I want to live around people who are I guess traditional but they're usually in rural areas and I really enjoy tech as a hobby

that's what I do

@Vesdii come up north my friend

you'll find us here surprisingly

I suppose if I didn't do computers and I had to live rural I'd get into mechanical engineering

as a hobby

I’ll end up getting a safe eventually

same

Welding is big up here

I'm not too worried since I always keep my gun on me

and all my other guns are dissassembled

A safe works fine for home defense

Tractor Supply is having as sale on Safes right now if yall are looking for safes, its part of our fall blow out

I've always wanted to craft some mechanical shit to make weird but cool conveniences throughout my house

If that’s a nationwide thing I might have to go look at that

What do you think makes rural areas and tech mutually exclusive?

idk, I haven't lived many places

I live in a rural area

i have internet

do you get like 2 mbps

we have tech jobs here

no, its pretty fast internet

I live rural/urban

oh wow

dude, I could do that them

*then

My parents live pretty far outside the city and the minimum they could get was 100mbps

How rural are we talking

Because ^

when I lived in Cary NC I had like max 3 mbps download speed so I can handle that

Cary?

I'm a SAS programmer

Come to small towns like mine and you'll see people with lifted trucks and trump flags on the back of them

Where I am in eastern S.Dakota most of our decent sized cities have access to some of the fastest net speeds in the country; I'm on the lowest standard tier package and I have 100down/10 up

I've been to the SAS Campus in Cary

sorry, didnt mean tha to kill the convo

lol

"Trump flags"

Its true

I have the means to look all my guns up but I carry my handgun on me, Shotgun tucked in the corner

oh wait
I was confused
I was like what the fuck is that

there's a safety on shotguns right

Yeah

depends but generally yes

I assume so but I just never heard it ever referenced in media

I have my shotgun in the closet but the case is open so I can pull it if I need it, my pistol is in my sock drawer

I think I'm warming my Chicagoan friend to gun ownership and CC

all the shotguns I've shot had safeties

But shotguns usually aren’t drop safe

Even with the safety on

oof

My shotgun has a safety

so when you drop it, can it go off because the force of hitting the ground can cause the firing pin to hit the cartridge?

I leave mine empty with safety off. All I have to do is rack a round to be up and ready to go

err

what's the part called

something like that @Vesdii

primer?

Break action shotguns like for trap shooting often don't

the part of the cartridge that the firing pin hits is the primer right?

I have Benelli 12 gauge for trap shooting

ooo

Noice

Benelli makes great shotguns

wtf is trap shooting

🤔

I just realized the double meaning

lmao

heyyooo

actual trap shooting is just using a shotgun to hit clay pigeons

<:MrClean:414176525924171786>

<:MrCleaner:427588736792920074>

Mossberg 500

18.5 inch barrel

clay pigeons... sounds fun
