[QUOTE="DarkMantle, post: 8528379, member: 7034738"] Since you did quote me, I need to be emphatic that I wasn't talking about slavery and imperialism. Clearly, there is a line. Murder is human, and I call it bad. I don't know that it was particularly helpful to bring that up here, so let's stay on topic please. For the [I]third time[/I], I get what you're saying. I'm just not sure that your approach is actually going to accomplish anything. If you just want to lash out at the bully with no objective other than releasing your pain, then fine, call it what you want. If you had a goal of making peace with said bully, I personally would use more mindful language as I already mentioned in the post you quoted. And here on this [S]forum[/S] thread, I hope there are not any bullies. Just hopefully people who are talking about their thoughts and feelings when playing D&D. I know what positive or negative stereotypes are, and I know positive stereotypes are problematic/harmful. If you're going to keep quoting me, please understand that to some extent, I think the right thing to do is to de-center myself from having specific conversations around real-life ethnicities and stereotypes.
