Ever have a triggerbitch make demands at your table in regards

>>54968161
Yeah. I was running D&D with some friends and this random guy we picked up from the local game store. He was fine until I decided to take the campaign to a faux-Middle East type area and have the players work with a local emir to find an efreet with knowledge of a special gem that could grant access to the BBEG's personal demi-plane. Motherfucker threw a fit because it turns out he was super hateful of anything from the Middle East, calling people ragheads and other shit. I had none of that shit; second he came out as an easily triggered baby who couldn't keep his mouth shut, I kicked his ass out of my game and my fucking house.

>>54968247
I hate ragheads too. Get shot at by enough of em for 3 years and you would too. It's pretty disheartening.
I wouldn't expect a kid that's never really encountered any hardships in life to understand though

>>54968275
The fictional characters and efreet did not shoot at you. Are you so autstic that you could not separate real life and D&D?

I'm sure nothing but reasonable and mature discussion will come out of this thread.

>>54968161
Yeah. I had a bunch of people tell me my games weren't /tg/ enough and my writing style wasn't /tg/ enough so they got the mods to ban everything fun.

Got back into playing ttrpgs from a 5 year break earlier this summer. Looked online for some local players and invited them.

Among them was this one chick, typical "I go to festivals and get stoned" type, but who am I to judge.

She came to the first session with two cards, one with a cross, the other with a circle on it and put them down in the middle of the table as if we were supposed to know what the fuck that was. Noone really cared until we started to talk about the game after the initial smalltalk. Turns out (I've since looked it up, this is a real thing) that these cards were supposed to be some kind of "Trigger" and "Fetish" cards where everyone is supposed to tap them if they want a situation to end or want more of a situation.

I told her and the group that I wasn't aiming to play FATAL, but apart from that, I disagree with this houserule. In the end the group kinda keeled to her, allowing the cards to be on the table.

Cue rolling of characters and the characters get sucked through the mist to Ravenloft.

>Villagers don't want to talk to her elven character
X-Card! I tone it down
>Spoopy skary headless horseman rides through town at night
X-Card!
>Villagers speak of the hag of the woods, an evil witch
X-Card! I ask why, she says "No questions"

Called for a break, had a fag, came back and told her in private to pack her stuff and leave since this round is definitely not going to be anything for her. Tried to stay polite to no avail.
She called me an edgelord and a Nazi for whatever reason before leaving.

>>54968275
>I have a traumatic backstory so my racism is justified
Not how it works bro. You are still fucking racist. There was no draft. You went there by choice. Get over yourself.

Go use your VA benefits and talk to a god damn shrink.

>>54968293
Wasn't saying that.
However, all of my characters that I play are, for better or worse, aspects of myself.
>they didn't shoot at you
>you're autistic
Well. Let's take a look at that statement. I've had kids that didn't shoot at me during the day come back and mortar the shit out of my base that night. So, given what I said above, then I would still dislike them.
Just because someone's personal experiences give them a different look on life doesn't make them autistic or wrong. I think you have some inward looking to do

>>54968275
Ok, but it was a fantasy setting and I expect people to keep their mouth shut if they're racist or sexist or what have you because it brings the fucking table down if not everyone shares that view, you dumb baby killer.

>>54968161
Pretty mild example, it turned out to be nothing In the first session with a guy who I knew previously but never had as a GM, he says something like "if anyone is uncomfortable with or triggered by anything that happens, just type X [online game] and we'll skip it and move on." It never came up, but it still stood out as a potential SJW alert. Like, come on, we're all mostly normal adults, grow a spine.

>>54968337

Actually, the 2 non adults I did kill were probably 15 or so, and were shooting at me. Felt really good knowing that I killed them before they killed or wounded any of us.
And just so you know, we had soldiers of all colors and backgrounds.

>>54968346
If you can't digest the idea of fictional people on a fictional setting being based on the countrymen of some fuckwit who shot you who knows how long ago, I'd say it's not that other anon who has to make some inward looking.

>>54968391

From the way you write you probably never served and definitely never saw active combat.

>>54968365
You're just as bad as someone playing a man-hating feminazi character because she got catcalled IRL. You're letting personal feelings and prejudices influence your play. Don't like ragheads? Cool, got it, now play a fictional character in a fictional world.

>>54968275
Yeah, and if I had to live in the Middle Ages, I'd probably hate that, too. I'd definitely hate encountering a dragon irl. Also, there is absolutely no doubt that partaking in necromancy in real life is totally out of the question.
Doesn't mean I freak the fuck out if these are in a game.

>>54968391
Hey man good on you, these little shits don't get it because they've never had someone they know get blown to pieces or shot up, then if they survive have the docs tell them they're getting 30% disability.

The weirdest thing was how uncommincative that chick was about it. She expected us to know what those cards were, she expected us to just go along with it and she somehow expected that Ravenloft would somehow not involve low-key racism, prejudices and spoopyness.

Not a trigger bitch. Just too young and still living with my parents at the time, so the only players I could get were friends from my highschool. I would later learn not to bend over backwards to accommodate a single player because they weren't on the fence, but simply weren't interested and for whatever reason won't give it to you straight.

>ever had a triggerbitch at your table?
m8 I founded a D&D club at a university two years ago, half the fucking people there were

Generally weren't too bad except one who was pulling the whole "gender fluid" thing and not only got triggered over pronouns but tried to play her male self-insert in every game without even bothering to hide that it was the same name she went by. Demanded to play a home-brew scalie race if she wasn't allowed that.
>Did you keel to her demands?
No. She had no experience playing and I wasn't going to stand for her home-brewed 3rd party bullshit or for the other stuff.

Eventually I left the club I founded and reconnected with some old buddies from high school as the bullshit became too much

>Do people really use these?
they don't. The story is entirely fabricated but he did a good job about hiding it, he didn't mention that the woman in question had dyed hair or was overweight even once although he did a good job implying it.

>>54968161

Yes, and it was hilarious. See, the PCs rescued a princess in my campaign, and the PC (who was a feminist) kept trying to convince her to rule from the shadows, and seize the throne for herself. The princess, however, didn't give a shit. She was perfectly happy with simply enjoying a life of luxury and giving the prince three children.

When she asked "Don't you want to do anything for yourself?" the princess gave her a long, hard look and responded "I have *peasants* to do things for me."

This led to an immediate argument, but I fortunately managed to boot the player. So it was win-win, really. I have no idea why this particular scene pissed her off, but there you go.

>>54968934

No, I don't. You're asking a rich, privileged noble with a long life of wealth, luxury and opulence in front of her to go out of her way to make life more difficult for herself. Why would she ever do that?

So this thread confirms something for me: Some people can't tell the difference between pretend and reality.

This is not always a bad thing. But it is a bad thing when they try to play pretend.

"Anime" level magic (the fuck does that even mean?) and for mages to run society because it was the "logical" conclusion.

Lol, no. They agreed to a low magic game before things started.

Fucked ten thousand years of history and forced us to change systems, as the current one didn't really support high-magic/heroic adventure.

>Did you tell them to fuck off?
After an hour of trying to reason with them.

>Did you actually keel to their demands?

I'm going to concede the in-game situation entirely. Maybe it would be out of character for this woman. I wasn't there, you were, and I really have to take your word on that one.
OK, let's look at this from a player-GM perspective for a moment. Clearly, the player is trying to win over the NPC to her opinion. It seems to be less about the actual politics, and more about the NPCs perceived passivity.
You know your player is a feminist (by your own admission) and I presume you can fathom the stereotype that women are (or should be) passive baby-factory types. The Gucci version is scarcely less contemptible than the bedraggled scullerymaid/bedwarmer.
You know full well the stereotypical NPC is riling your player. You know full well that she's trying to prompt a bit of character growth from this NPC. You know full well you're shooting the player down, doubling down on the behaviour that irked the player in the first place. You then referred to removing the player as a "win-win."
I think you do know why the player was annoyed, I think you baited her deliberately, I think (unless you used mechanics to determine success and failure) you're a railroading piece of shit GM, and I think you're a troll in the classic sense.
Be less of a fucking milquetoast and own your decisions. You didn't like this player, so you demeaned her and then booted her. Your faux ignorance serves nobody.

You should have asked her what exactly she wanted out of the game.

In my experience, people like that are so used to their hugboxes and echo chambers that they become completely intolerant of anything other than what they specifically want. They have a very specific idea of what the "correct" story or set up would be, but rather than go through the work of GM'ing they just throw a hissy fit when the story doesn't cater to their particular desires. Its like going onto /pol/ and trying to have a reasonable conversation about anything.

Yes, there is a lot of good anime especially if you wind the clock back. At the same time most of it is utter shit. Take a look at the front page of Crunchyroll if you want, that's what your average normalfag thinks when they hear the word Anime.

Regardless, I can understand having an aversion to people or places depending on your experiences. You screaming about ragheads is no different than black people screaming about "White Devils".

He's merely admitting to role-playing his prejudices. Wtf is wrong with that? I've played a hyper racist dwarf who hated elves (not an uncommon trope for dwarves, but I took it to the next level), an alcoholic inquisitior who saw any woman that wasnt a house wife as a witch, etc.
Why is it different when someone roleplays a human who hates or other human races?
It's a game, and people like to try different roles and ideas. Kind of the point but then that's too nuanced for you I'd imagine. No he's just an ebil nazi.

I would wager that he didn't do it purposefully (if the story is true) but that he simply did it because it was what fit with the setting and story. And the thing is, it does fit with the setting, the story and the feelings of the NPC.

Your implicit idea is that NPCS should be totally passive and do whatever PCs say, being guided or forced into "Character Development". But why is it so terrible that an NPC would have a position and stick to it? Should the main villain be talked out of his evil plans by one PC with a hard on for "Fixing" characters?

Static characters are dull and it also removes a reasonable amount of player agency if they are trying to change an NPCs views.

>You should have asked her what exactly she wanted out of the game.
son, she should have said it to the GM. If you go to a restauranmt and are intolerant to, let's say, garlic, you are expected to tell the staff right away, and not bitch about the garlic in your food; and if something triggers you, you should tell people and not wait until taht thing pops up to bitch about it and ruin the game and the hours of prep time that went into it.

>>54969446
>Static characters are dull and it also removes a reasonable amount of player agency
You're not asking for player agency though, he's not forcing them to do anything.

A call to action is realistic if they actually have a moral background to frame it against. But by his description she neither cared about the countrymen or had a desire for power past the point of a comfortable life. There's nothing for it to resonate against, why WOULD she go for power considering we have a good sense of what her personal values are?

Only saw them once.

Didn't know what they were at the time, someone just showed up and dropped it on the table in front of them and occasionally started angrily knocking on it during the game. Didn't say a word, just start knocking on the table while glaring at me as if he was expecting me to do something.

Of course, I had no idea what the fuck he was doing, so I just ignored him, he'd then slam his fist on the table on the table a few times and sulk in silence. Really fucking chatty any other time, so I'm not sure what the deal was.

Everyone else was getting sick of asking him to stop the constant knocking, and he eventually got "asked" to leave. Read: got punched in the face and thrown out because one of his slam-fits spilled someone's drink all over their character sheet.

I want to believe

I had a player complain there were no non-white NPCs and I said that the city we were in didn't have a lot of foreigners but I threw in a black caravaneer for them to feel like they made a difference. Jokes on them though, he had naturally red hair and blue eyes because the setting doesn't have homologous ethnicities to Earth.

Not letting PCs do anything outside your predetermined plot is the classic railroad.

Because it's a game and the only thing that keeps the NPC as a static fetch-quest item is the GM.

>>54969446

The players want to talk the villain down, but the villain is not going to be talked down. There, that's a good example. People don't change their viewpoints just because you're convincing. You're not going to talk the cultist out of summoning his dark god, even if you point out that summoning Cthulu will kill everyone involved.

>>54969824
>'re not going to talk the cultist out of summoning his dark god, even if you point out that summoning Cthulu will kill everyone involved.
Nobody's arguing that it's a one-and-done task like climbing a wall. However, if the PCs make it their plan it behooves the GM to tell them the requirements and let them quest for it. "Just no" as an answer to interpersonal stuff is boring, or at best for utterly inhuman foes like the creature from Alien, or the Tarrasque.

>>54968161
Not too much, I think the worst was when I was trying out Pathfinder for the first time (didnt know the community was full of faggots at the time).

Anyway this one guy really wanted to play a Tengu but I'm not really a fan of beast races or any races that are too far out there (just doesn't make sense to fit in general society to me) and the players had agreed to play core since it was our first time in PF.

He kept trying to get me to allow it and o kept politely telling him no. Well he showed up to first session and brought with him a Tengu ranger. I was fed up at that point and told him that he couldn't play his furry fetish race at my table. He got really mad when I called it a "fetish race" and went on this long tirade about how there's nothing sexual about wanting to play a strange race in a Fantasy game.

He left because I wouldn't let him play tengu. Later for kicks I looked up his discord/email username online and saw that he writes erotic Pokémon fanfics about Typhlosion so I think I made the right call.

>>54969810
>Not letting PCs do anything outside your predetermined plot is the classic railroad.
She was free to try to convince her till she was blue in the face. That doesn't mean it will work. Is the GM removing agency when he doesn't let a Barbarian use his dick to break down a stone wall? Probably not, because it would be an unreasonable chain of events.

>Because it's a game and the only thing that keeps the NPC as a static fetch-quest item is the GM.
Should all NPCs just follow what you have to say? She explicitly stated she doesn't care about responsibility, it would require a complete 180 in her motivations to "rule from the shadows" like that ditz wanted.

Like it was never a mystery to me why the PC in that guys game was having a tantrum but that doesn't mean it's valid either.

>>54968721

Yes, all the ones that the players are interested in and are putting in roleplaying toward changing their views.

Bullshit. It may well be within the realm of possibility to convince a cultist to not summon his god and change his religion, but there's no reason whatsoever for the PCs to know what they need to accomplish this. In fact, I should say that short of very powerful divination magic, it would probably be impossible to know the requirements.

Yeah, but they don't have to. And there's no reason for a gold-digger to even want to. Have you never met a person who just went "Nah, I'm good the way I am. Thanks but no thanks."?

>>54968161
Not really the only real issue we ever have is that one player is a massive rules lawyer when it suits him. He tends to interject a lot when people homebrew things because our DM likes fun and worked with a player to create something fun, he threw a massive fit about it and he wasn't even going to play in that campaign(he eventually did anyway).

So you agree that letting a Barbarian use his dick to break down a stone wall is not comparable to trying to change a persons view on something.

>>54968161

This is a very weird one, but I'll tell the story anyway. I was running a vampire-hunter style game, where the protagonists were all battling Japanese vampires. A recurring group of characters was a team of female vampire-huntresses, who each had their distinct personalities.

The leader (a tomboy) eventually developed a crush on the PC team's swordsman. After that, she started changing the way she dressed, acting more femininely, and otherwise doing what she could to attract his attention. I mean, she really liked this guy, who was basically Sir Galahad.

One of the female players complained that she really should be a lesbian instead, because she was apparently the 'butch' time, and it was very disempowering for her to be attracted to a man. I pointed out that the girl had never, at any point, been depicted as a lesbian and anyway her relationship with the rest of her team was sisterly rather than romantic (i.e. they were orphans who grew up together in a convent). Like, at no point at all did I ever say this girl was a lesbian. She was simply tomboyish and more aggressive (i.e. fighting with kicks and martial arts rather than just holy magic) than the other girls!

>>54970155
>and it'll be a long process with many steps
So you're admitting this would have to happen over a long period. Maybe you go out and show her the plight of the peasants, who fucking knows. The OP described a conversation after she was rescued. Actually expecting her to change within this period is nonsensical.

So yeah, the players tantrum was fucking stupid.

>>54970164
>You know there is a thing called a police negotiator?
They convince him to sit the fuck down or he'll get killed. Let's not pretend the guy has a shift in moral values. The dude holding a bunch of children at gunpoint does not become a pillar of the community, the fuck are you on about?

>>54970155

That sounds insanely boring. It's like the one where the players fought for gay marriage. As a player, I wouldn't enjoy that in the slightest, and I'd encourage the other PCs to move on, too. No-one wants to play guidance counselor.

>>54969169
>nobody talks about combat
Nobody talks to their friends and family about combat. We do talk amongst ourselves about it and occasionally I'll talk about it in here, because what the fuck do I care? Some anon going to judge me because I tell them about the the time I saw an IED go off a mile or so outside the COP and when I get back to Fiddler's I find out that Hrbek is just fucking gone? That all they found was his Kevlar? About how numb you feel when you find out you saw the blast that essentially vaporized someone you knew and there wasn't a goddamn thing you could do about it, but there's a little voice in the back that says maybe you could. Maybe if you had done something a little different, woke up early, didn't eat at that moment, anything, he might be home with a wife and kids 9 years later like you are?

>>54970195
I don't think that anyone is arguing that the tantrum wasn't stupid and childish. I think that the sentiment that the original anon was alluding to was that players shouldn't be able to change PCs views if the GM feels they are sufficiently justifiable based on their fluff, which to me is a pretty boring way to make PCs let alone play with them.

>>54970195
>So you're admitting this would have to happen over a long period. Maybe you go out and show her the plight of the peasants, who fucking knows. The OP described a conversation after she was rescued. Actually expecting her to change within this period is nonsensical.

Me, I prefer grimdark settings. I've never understood the players who want to change settings like that, it's part of the charm.

I guess people just like to be contrarian.

Is there a word for where you sympathize with someone but still disagree with them?

>>54970290
There's a huge middle we're excluding here.
Maybe the GM should have spoken to the player and they could have worked out how plausible (or not) convincing this woman was. It's not fun to shoot someone down flat (though sometimes it's the least worst option) and it's not like trying to talk an NPC round to a certain point of view is fishmalk behaviour. Would it really have hurt the GM to just... go with this? Make it difficult, maybe lay down some objectives that play off other stuff the group is doing, that sort of thing?

No, it's the retarded kind of "let's go on a stupid tangent because wouldn't that be epic" behaviour that is encouraged by RPG shows and podcasts, and literally everyone who engaged in forced stupidity like this was an dumb cunt.

Girl just want to wear frilly dress, have kids with the handsome prince and have tea party with other nobles, she wouldn't want to change a comfy life like that

I see your point anon but it can't apply to every noble character, some people will refuse the call to adventure, I admit that my example to can't apply to every noble but no one can hold anything against this anon for not having the princess be convinced about the joy of adventuring and risking your life everyday

>>54970345
If someone is truly convinced that they're right, it's very often basically impossible to sway their opinion. This goes double for when you're not only trying to change their opinion, but start by making it clear that your opinion is completely opposite. People generally stop really listening at that point.

I don't think she was particularly pleased by the answer, but she didn't push the point.

In my space game I used this to explain why most of the Orion Commonwealth Navy uses females for shipboard operations, on top of the fact that women (being generally smaller than men) tend to have a slightly easier time with sudden or drastic shifts in G-force from accelerating or decelerating.

When a player asked why almost every drop marine and infantryman in the military was male (after making her Infantry Space Babe and being told she probably got a lot of mixed attention in such a male dominant field) I explained that usually when your biology suits the less lethal job that pays six times more people take that option.

True enough. The complicating factor is that the player involved badly wanted this as an outcome, and was dismissed out of hand.
As a GM, it behooves you to make fun for your players, as well as yourself. We've established that a change of heart (over time, other caveats etc) would not be implausible. The only remaining reason not to give the player a shot is that the GM didn't want to. That's the part that comes off as a bit cunty.

Actually, they're called women.

>implying modern commies are even close to the soviets
Papa Stalin might have been a genocidal murderous maniac, but at least the soviets had pride and culture and weren't degenerate anarchists with three horse dildos up their ass.

Also, by "bringing civilization", I mean killing off all of the Arabs who are too stupid to just bend the knee and colonizing afterwards.

To play devil's advocate, the GM also could have refused to do it because that kind of development isn't what he wanted to focus on in the game. You've only got a few hours every session, and maybe changing the mind of this princess just isn't something the GM was interested in.

>>54970556

My mother-in-law was a liberal hippie in the 60s until her 20s when she started sharing a room with a nun and said nun managed to make her into a ultraconservative megacatholic "I'm not going to miss a single day of mass, fucking outside of marriage is the worst shit ever" in little more than a year of effort.
Life's fucked up like that sometimes.

>>54969396
If she actually gave a decent amount of reasoning for the princess to stage a coup I don't see why the GM shouldn't at least entertain the possibility after that point by giving the player a roll for it.

Besides, being the personal guard for something like a failed coup attempt against the kingdom by a failed princess might end up being more fun anyways, and you get to have double the "I told you so" as the princess and that PC are led to the gallows for treason after the misadventure.

Analogy fails; the international stage is one of anarchy, and there is no sovereign force that governs international relations.
Theft is only defined as such in the context of law

>>54970813

Hell, my players over the years have gone way off the opening pitch of games from time to time. Sometimes it's bad, sometimes it's actually more fun than what I had prepared.

the reason for having women as astronauts has nothing to do with your pic or what you say.

women have less volume, less mass and less metabolism. that means, that unless we have humongous ships that can spare deltaV without any problem, they are more efficient crew members by far since you can allocate less space to the parts of the ship where the crew lives(aka the most annoying parts to design) and less mass in rations(even if you use a closed ecological system), which in conjunction with the first means less mass in atmosphere and structure effectively making you much more maneuvarable than the enemy and increasing the range of ship quite a bit.

Psychological differences are just self-wanking from both sides and should not be taken into account, both sexes have more than enough mental flexibility and you are aiming at the top anyway.

You guys are mising something here. The suggestions of the player to the princess are literal treason. This isin't improve your life and character arc, this is become a literal criminal, depose the king who may even be your father and battle contless claimants to the throne. Honestly the correct reaction here is the execution of the player character.

I did the same shit, and had to not only get shot at but put you and them back together after the shooting ended.

I have no problem with putting middle eastern stuff in my games. I don't hate them at all. That doesn't mean you have to tongue a hadji's balls and tell them they're perfect beautiful snowflakes with the freedom to impose Shariah law wherever they go. It doesn't mean you have to be an utter twat every time something middle eastern comes up either.

Violent dumbshits are simply violent dumbshits. I say we should all unite around the belief that arabian nights settings look a lot cooler than the modern middle east and arab women are hot. We fought, the west won, now let's just focus on making more Mia Khalifas.

If I were the gm I wouldn't go as far as calling an excecution on the player. I guess she just wanted to "liberate" the princess from the shackle of what she deemed was an oppresive live, the princess just want to keep her life like it is. Now as a GM, if I deemed the story to be interesting enough for the players I would have made small character arc where the princess marry the prince but is soon disapointed with her marriage, either the prince is an inbred,ugly guy, mistreating her, her children came up ugly and her ideal princess life is getting blleaker and bleaker I would have made her follow the pc to the call of adventure, though I would warn the player that it might throw them into something unwanted, like having both royal family after their ass

this exchange was honestly hilarious

the triggerbitch in my game was a guy who only ever played pre-teen japanese girls (that was his fetish).
I was running Aberrant, he being pre-teen japanese meant relocating everything I had planned to japan, and no he won't change his character how dare I ask, but OK.
(he also couldn't figure out why I kept laughing when his water controller chose a certain japanese word fro "splash" as her code name*)
part of the story was that because of various super powered people many criminal agencies were trying to go legit. if I'd run the game in New York, where I had planned to run it, it would have been the Mafia, seeing as it was Japan, this meant the Yakuza were trying to go legit. They did this by funding the super hero team the PCs put together.
the triggerbitch of course had a problem with this and threatened to quit. I didn't back down, and he ended up not quitting.

*yes, he named his 12 year old water controlling super heroine "bukkake"

I understand the appeal of grimdark settings and antihero characters, and there certainly are some people who are just contrarian. But for the vast majority of people, the goal isn't to be merely contrarian, but to be antinihilistic.

Back before the x-card, there was the "safe word", a well intentioned but equally useless and cludgy attempt at roughly the same thing. Someone I used to play WoD with suggested trying in a game, and we settled on using a Klingon word , mostly because it was something unlikely to ever come up otherwise.

Long and short of it is that the safe word ended up being treated as a joke and was mostly used to signal that it was time for a smoke break.

>>54971463
You're welcome.
I had a second before taking my kids out to their grandparents today for a visit, so I thought I'd see what went down.

We leave politics out of games, but will occasionally discuss them when something of note happens and we're playing vidya. There's been no triggering, no arguments, no drama, because we all treat each other respectfully.

Ok then, tell me how antifa doesn't win that as well. They have enough members that are willing to do violence at every single newsworthy rally in the country. White supremacists had a moderate number at one in Charlottesville drawn from also around the country. If you think any hard right group is that scary due to number of members and their ratio to violence/non-violence, you don't know enough about the subject at hand.

>>54972138
If you have 20,000 members and 20 of them are violent, it's a little more significant than if you have 20,000,000 members and 200 of them are violent. Right?

You could, for instance, examine the numbers and come to a conclusion whether the group is as a whole violent, or whether they're just a few unruly members, or whether it looks totally unrelated.

No, that's a complete reversal of her character as makes no sense on any level, and is frankly more nonsensical than the barbarian breaking down the stone wall with his dick. People don't change like that.

>>54972217
>When was the last time antifa killed someone?
It will only be a matter of time. Shooting at a bunch of people with an SKS and bashing people in the dome is bound to kill someone eventually. This of course ignores all of the hard left violence in the 60's, 70's, and 80's.
