Secret societies all have a penchant for fantastical titles.

Oh, I met one here on Kinja the other day. He was insisting that Silicon Valley was ‘extreme left’ and I was saying, “No, they are technolibertarians. They’re not remotely left.”

Contrary to your name, this is a well thought out and thorough response.

Where’s all the contrarians that were claiming this dude’s manifesto was intelligently written and he had a leg to stand on?

As someone who has played D&D for 10+ years across 3 versions, I have never once heard a formal campaign from wizards of the coast refer to a character as a Grand Wizard. The fuck kind of nonsense is he trying to pull calling Grand Wizard a D&D thing. I’ve heard Evoker, Divinator, Magician, Conjurer, Journeyman,…

“You know you’ve moralized an issue,”

You know, this is getting a little tiresome...

I think it is more complicated than that. Also, note this is geared towards wypipol, so feel free to skip if it doesn’t apply to your situation.

Adam Driver is an Adonis compared to this guy.

Or like the supporting character in nearly every 1990s horror or scifi flick whose admiration for the mysterious enemy ultimately facilitates his own death at its hands.

If you make the actual KKK the only place where you can acknowledge the coolness of D&D terms, then you’ll just push people into the KKK.

BTW, you take back that Adam Driver comparison. He looks like a defective clone of Kylo Ren at best. Don’t you put this on Star Wars like that. lol

Eh, I always saw the KKK assignations as fucking weird. ::shrug::

Someone forgot to tell him the KKK isn’t a comic book villain, but a real-life heinous institution that has no redeeming qualities.

“You know you’ve moralized an issue,” Damore wrote (issue meaning racism), “when you can’t criticize its heroes or acknowledge any positive aspect of its villains.”
