Is the evidence just that the posts are coming from the same town? Admittedly, it's an obscure town (or at least, I've never heard of it), but still, not exactly a smoking gun
Really? Anti-vaxxers are one of your top three examples of terrible people?Anti-vaxxers, racist, and conspiracy theorist
Shall we quibble about rankings or just admit that they do make the list, even if it's not in the three spot? If you read anti-vaxxer as "highly dangerous and(because?) immensely stupid human" it really does cover a lot of ground.Really? Anti-vaxxers are one of your top three examples of terrible people?
What's the only thing that has killed more humans than humans? Oh, wait, it's transmissible diseases. Which are on the increase all over the developed world after having been given a pretty good smack down in the last half century on the back of mass immunisation programs. So, yeah, it's probably not all hyperbole.Really? Anti-vaxxers are one of your top three examples of terrible people?
I think he would have received greater support if he had rather aimed his hate towards Disney shills.So that's why I started this blog: tired of stupidgetting undeserved praise and people not even daring to say something slightly negative about the stuff they still like despite the bad parts.
agreed, immensely stupid human covers a lot of ground....(snip)... immensely stupid human" it really does cover a lot of ground.

I think it's the screenshot from the blog (now deleted but saved in that Twitter thread) of somebody else's Facebook post which he was mocking, which showed him logged in to his own account in the "reply" box.Is the evidence just that the posts are coming from the same town?

I wasn't trying to come up with an exhaustive list of terrible people nor was I trying to rank them. That would be a fool's errand. The anti-vaxxers are an example of a group with bad ideas who spread misinformation and reinforce each other's false beliefs in a way that is harmful to the rest of us.Really?

Admittedly, it hasn't worked yet, but....Especially if they try flying by jumping off a cliff or building while flapping their arms really fast.
Jack Chick and BADD didn't even need the internet.It's ironic how people will latch onto pathetic, shallow arguments they find on the Internet to justify hatred, and then think their gullibility is a sign of their innate superiority.
I find myself in the same boat, except that I had actually picked up some of his stuff for Dungeon World. Which is extra confusing if it really is the same guy as YRPGIS had posts hating on Dungeon World as well.I had a look at my library on Drivethru and I don't have any of the company's products.
However, it turns out I am a backer of the guy's latest kickstarter. When asked about it in the kickstarter comments (not by me) he says he is not behind the YRPGiS site and doesn't understand how the situation could have arisen.
His company website has been taken down. Is the KS still running?I had a look at my library on Drivethru and I don't have any of the company's products.

Yes it is. Other than that one comment this issue seems to have passed the Kickstarter by. I had an update this morning, which I thought might have been a clarification or apology or denial or, you know, something, but instead it was basically "what do you think about our elves?"His company website has been taken down. Is the KS still running?
Fairly new? Hardly.To me, it's not the hate that's surprising and disheartening. It's always been there.
It's that people are so comfortable expressing it in public. I find that shocking, and fairly new.

The Christchurch shooter's 'manifesto' spends a couple of paragraphs describing how beneficial the internet has been to white supremacist fascists like himself.The worst thing about the internet is that it allows people in niche groups to reach out and connect with others like them. Anti-vaxxers, racist, and conspiracy theorist go out on the internet and connect with others who reinforce their beliefs.
I’m pretty sure I’ve never once seen you post on-topic.I don't want to be off-topic
[video=youtube;cPtMgsN8Tpo]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPtMgsN8Tpo[/video]You can enjoy the free speech to report the wrong actions by other people, but I advise when you criticize then do it with the same tone like somebody of your own family or town, to show what to be fixed or improved, not to promote hate like toxic people. Don't worry about genetic code by your descendents, maybe they will be half-blood (most likely in the cosmopolitan capital cities), but about their moral values.
Reporting racism, homophobia, or machism (male chauvinism) isn't enough. We have to defend the respect of the human dignity, the pillar of our rights, or we will fall in the dark side of the Force, the rebel against authority will become a new tyrant. Nietzsche said: "He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster".
True, but those same tools allow less reasonable-to-suppress groups to organize, too.The Christchurch shooter's 'manifesto' spends a couple of paragraphs describing how beneficial the internet has been to white supremacist fascists like himself.
