A little reminder of your avowed fidelity is okay.
Controlling every aspect of a person's life out of jealousy is simply wrong. |

| I'm not sure there's a huge difference. Either way you're working on someone else's means of production with little power or agency in the grand scheme of things.

| They either break down and fall into Capitalism or devolve into a Feudal system run by autocrats and oligarchs. So you do prove the point that Capitalism is bad. Not at all. To "fall into" something in this context is to fall into a default state that works . Yet you never seem to get ti... |

| My XYF would get angry with me for even speaking to other women. She flew into a rage that lasted into the wee hours because I smiled and said, "Thank you" to the woman who served us at a fancy restaurant. She dropped in unexpectedly to my workplace to count the number of women who worke... |

| One theme keeps rolling through the pro-commie replies in this and other threads: "If a Communist government fails, then it isn't real Communism". This includes China, Cuba, Laos, North Korea, Vietnam, and the former Soviet Union (this included Tito's Yugoslavia). They either break down ... |

| Assuming that you've read Part 3, Chapters 8 and 9 of the DMG, what specific questions do you have? Meanwhile, I have a few general suggestions: • Session Zero : Instead of playing on the first meet-up, you and the players roll up characters (a main and a back-up) and discuss the player's interests ... |

| Please read This Post before making further comments about Communism or 'Equity'; because, as presented in this thread, they really are the same thing. But those are your personal views on communism. Ah, but those "personal views" are all based on the writings of Karl Marx and Friedrich... |

| Loves the images of the boxes . . . Don't be fooled. TRUE equity would have involved giving each person a free ticket to watch the game from the stands.
