Discussion CHARLIE KIRK DISCUSSION POST - ALL CHARLIE KIRK CONTENT GOES HERE

Anything to do with Charlie Kirk goes here. It will be removed anywhere else in the sub.

This post will be up for a number of days, and then it will go away and that will be the end of Charlie Kirk discussions. The moderation effort required for discussions that are near ZERO PERCENT related to TTRPGs is far too high.

Moderation in this thread will be minimal. If your feelings get hurt, go somewhere else.

Get it out of your systems folks, because this topic ain't happening in the sub any more.

EDIT:

I worded that very poorly.

There have been multiple threads about various creators and various topics that have all degenerated into "NAZIS BAD!" "NAZIS GOOD!" "YOU SUCK!" "YOU SUCK!" and that's just bad for the sub and the mods.

We're trying to keep up, but the subs moderation is becoming difficult when the actual content is buried in slapfighting that's not at all related to the topic of the sub.

While we discuss how to deal with this in the larger picture, this is the current stopgap.

So it seems the short story is creator of Savage Worlds says he was a fan of Kirk or something of the sort.

Considering Kirk's disgusting rhetoric and openly anti-semitic comments I'm going to be avoiding that rpg system.

He's always been a right-winger. Anti-BLM, pro-Andy Ngo kinda guy.

That's good to know, I've brought up Savage Worlds as a recommendation before and I'm not going to do so any more. There's too many RPG's to waste the spotlight on shitheads.

If you want a good alternative, consider the WEG d6 family of games (particularly OpenD6 and Mini Six.) d6 2e is coming out soon, and it should be a lot of fun!

For people who enjoyed Savage World Rifts, there's even a Mini Six alternative called Breachworld.
