Politics and MTG

Recently a thread came up and people said the right felt the SJWs were boogey men.

Well...are we crazy or ARE WE CRAZY (for not standing up before it was too late).

Im not asking for "conservative values" and all races have been present since the beginning so why can't it just stay that way, why must divirsity push everything to the extremes?

*to the right,
Not
The right felt

Some of the shit they push is absolutely hilarious.

There is literally nothing wrong with this

>omg a single post about pride why is everything so extreme!!!!!!
>baaawwwwww

How about you just move on with your fucking life instead of kneejerking all the time?

...Jesus, is that backed up in story or just assumed. I never noticed how close they were, I guess.

Official D&D books have had genderbending wizards and gay characters for a damn long time.

This has been a revolving set of issues, women, divirsity, sexuality and I'm sure gender is coming up soon. It's not once.

It's never once.

>gay greeks
>not realistic
[laughing]

One other card. It's a pair of statues that people think are rival kings due to how long ago they lived, when they were in fact lovers.

Ok, where? If they did I wasn't noticable to me, I played in 90s and picked back up a year ago, since then I've been scanning through the time missed.

What, gay hoplites is something remarkable now? Never heard of the Sacred Band of Thebes?

>why must divirsity push everything to the extremes

Slippery slope is not a fallacy.

Elminster. Fucking Elminster. Ed Greenwood's Magical Realms had genderbending and lesbians since the TSR years.

Take a wild guess (and look into the background of the first image).

They're gay as shit. My friend joked about making a sexy gay man commander deck.
>partner

Totally valid. Still funny.

Gender already showed up with the Aetherborn, who are explicitly defined as singular-them-pronouned non-gendered things.

I honestly wish they had just described them as agender, it's what they are. It felt like it was trying way too hard.

>getting buttblasted about gays in a greek setting

What's it like, having a stick up your ass bigger than any dick could ever be?

Is that the same group Spoony talked about in some counter monkey?

Not saying "it can never happen" but I've been an adult for a while and know they tend to go so over board that it ruins it for the actual players to appease random people that don't even play.

they aren't demmanding any of us do anything about it
they aren't tweaking the rulrs so gay players have better chances of winning exclusively due to their sexual preference
the gay greek commander, the crossdressing mongolian warrior, and the STRONK black woman planeswalker feel a bit SJW but is not like they're turning all the frogs gay

>Gender already showed up with the Aetherborn, who are explicitly defined as singular-them-pronouned non-gendered things.

That makes sense with the Aetherborn. They legitimately don't have the qualities needed to have physical genders. It would be like being surprised that a Changeling is gender fluid.

I see you didn't get a good enough response in the lore thread, so you decided to make your own bait thread.

This wasn't ever canon, right?

>Wizards didn't include the black and brown stripes that were forced in by BLM.
>In b4 BLM members start tweeting "muh oppression"

sadly, not yet

It's Canon. Honestly, I'm really hoping that Unstable will satirize this kind of behavior and ridicule this extreme emphasis on Diversity in a tasteful manner. Not outright hating on diversity as a concept, but demonstrating that overdoing it can have a hard impact on the story, similar to how a South Park episode might handle the concept.

It would actually be a really cool and useful way to use Unstable that would have a lasting impact on card aesthetic from now on, instead of it just being the "joke set."

Then again, they're probably already doing that with the Gay Interracial Roman Kings Power Couple.

>makes sense with the Aetherborn. They legitimately don't have the qualities needed to have physical genders
Neither did Karn and yet he was refereed to in male form, because people weren't throwing hissy fits about these things back then.

Nah, it wasn't. The artist got politely asked not to keep producing it due to 'Official MTG artist making art of Official MTG characters' being seen as it being official statements on the characters.

Frankly, Alesha at the very least had a good story article behind her too, so that was no problem at all.

Yeah, all in all I like the aetherborn. They're a cool monoblack race with an interesting gimmick and a pretty solid visual design.

This is nothing crazy guys, just a company doing run-of-the-mill virtue signalling. Calm down.
>You are now aware that literal faggots enjoy the game too
That's what the pride awareness thing is. You don't have to outfag the literal faggots by overreacting.

It's not like it's the BLM pride flag. Now that would be stupid and worth making a fuss over.

I don't understand. Is there something wrong with this? I don't get it. Is there a complaint being made?

No, Chandra only has the hots for Nissa, but she's too autistic to understand.

...

>4th version of concept art for Chandra's Phoenix will never be canon

prevously MtG had been attacked by moralist, religious cunts who wanted demons out of the game because of satanic panic, then unglued came in with Infernal Spawn of Evil
so yeah i hope they make fun of SJW and their endless list of demmands about their feelongs not being hurt

You're being a bit disingenuous. MtG was never targeted on the whole demon/devil craze. They voluntarily stopped using the "demon" type for a while because they saw D&D taking flak and wanted to avoid it.

I'd prefer to see one more satirising both sides arguing about the politics of a children's card game.

Fuck, why is Lili so hot

karn was a singular being, the etherborn are a whole culture of creatures like that
i have no issue with them finding an identity apart from that elves, humans, and veds

Whoa. I've seen this card a lot, have it, but clearly I need to read the flavor text more.

Kinda hard when if I only have a couple cards from some set. Still.

Ok. So it's been here for a while, but we all know the equality meme goes farther, has it gotten worse or has it moved from buried in the story to corporate virtue signalling.

If it's kept corporat then that's ok but...idk. I've seen many things I like be turned to shit because it became a victim popularity.

I watched some mtg YouTube video where he was fired for off color joke about tranny's and bathrooms, so it can and has reached into life. Just wondering if it has.

Guess it has been around longer than I thought, but as long as it's not over it's fine by me. But stronger signals are always a bad sign.

>luscious black hair
>creamy pale skin from moonlight
>cold to the touch

Homosexuality with relation dinosaurs is a sensitive topic. There's a theory that chief cause of their extinction was some sort of attitude shift leading them to have predominantly or perhaps even exclusively same-sex intercourse and basically dying out because they stopped to procreate.

You guys aren't complaining enough.

Complain harder.

The blacks and the gays and the womenz are coming to take away your toys.

Aren't you enraged?

Bitch harder, faggots. I'm making popcorn, and when I come back there had better be some fucking qq.

Honestly being gay sucks especially for males. I hate it. It seems so "cute" and ideal online but IRL its always awful.

Agender beings have been in MtG forever. The aetherborn were just the first they mentioned specifically to appeal to progressives.

I want a qt femboy plainswalker though
w/r or w/u

You're bad at this. Leave this sort of thing to me, please. We don't want you hurting yourself.

>Infernal Spawn of Evil was made as a joke against the evangelical Right that pushed against MTG for being pro-satanist.

You learn something new every day. I thought it was more because the artist only drew demons so they gave him something insane.

Not enough spite. Go harder. Dig deep.

W/U. I want my Smug Shota Wizard-Cleric.

Thebes says hi.

There was at one point a big push to get the telephone pole screamers to join, but they realized about 6-8 months ago that the people who did all the complaining don't actually WANT to play, no matter how much they're pandered to.

So now it's almost 100% signaling.

We both know how that one ends...

didn´t het Dark SSR Fate Episode reveal, that she actually changed bodies when she was still a little shota? I mean I´m fine, my headcanon is still her being a dirty old man in the body of a cute girl

They took out the pentagram around when that happened.

...GARY, YOU ARE GONNA FINISH YOUR DESSERT, AND YOU ARE GONNA LIKE IT!!!

Pathetic bait 2bh. Tumblr is weak.

Meow

Learn your fucking Greek:

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epaminondas

The only thing that bothered me about this was how on the nose the art was for the statues with the touching swords.

Alright, I learned what I wanted and more, thanks all.

This guy is totally femme and fabulous. And he's not subtle about it.
>darling

Can I suck your cock now?

Fix your fucking grammar. Otherwise I agree.

I believe that Gay Pride isn't inherently political, at least it shouldn't be. Casual and spontaneous (as in without outside force) insertions of homosexual characters is fine by me. Once it starts to get to actual pandering, which means that people are starting to become glorified/demonized for what they happen to be rather than their accomplishments, that is where I have a problem.
BLM is political since it deals with policing. BLM is also controversial since it has been associated with unsavory words and acts, but that's an inherent weakness with a hashtag movement.
I opposed Runescape's Pride Event on principle of them not asking the community first, which they traditionally have, but I wouldn't mind if they at least negotiated first and there was overreaction from the community, although that was handled poorly by the mods.

.
It's shouldn't be political but they make it's, the past few years it's gone from non to extremely so. BLM, anti-trump, feminists, all have taken it over.

Disgusting, it is.

Please, sempai. Just the tip. Just let me lick the tip.

They're not a man, they're a member of a race that's inherently genderless and has neither men nor women.

Yahenni is a flamboyant, sexless pollution elemental.

>I believe that Gay Pride isn't inherently political, at least it shouldn't be
>ignoring the supreme court ruling about gay marriage, which went against state's rights

Christ almighty, are all liberals/libertarians this out of touch with reality?

Any other trans flavored cards?

Can I call you daddy before and after?

This

They're already in the process of rebranding pedophiles as "Minor attracted persons" and calling it an orientation instead of a mental illness

Just keep real world politics out of your games and marketing. How hard is that?

Trump is a little bitch man, tho.

Veeky Forums is full of so much shit on so many levels.

>ruling against a state's bigoted laws, which went against citizen's rights

There ya go.

>citizens rights

Marriage was fine, forcing churches to do was wrong, forcing gay cakes was wrong.

It sucks that when growing up I thought adults wouldn't be so skewed morally. Growing up meant growing and the majority seemed to choose not to.

>Im not asking for "conservative values"
This reeks of "How do you do, fellow centrists?" Seriously, you get your panties in a twist over one tweet, and this is how you react? The Right and the Left can both fuck off, don't get your shit into my hobby. You're both fucking retarded, the only difference is in who's fucking things up now.

I'm going to resist talking politics and just post funny cards.
>/femgen/'s namesake is banned in pauper

OP, can I rim your pristine boipuss?

That's what I've been saying. Of course, no one believes it, even if it comes straight from the, and I quote "attention-whoring namefag."

>I'm so much better than everyone else: The Post
Centrism is cancer.

OP you seem kind of tense, do you need a massage?

...well, I wanted to make sure people knew I wasn't just and average /pol/-nazi so I wanted to show what I was and wasn't ok with. I used OP for most the thread so kindly read it then shitpost.

there is this one tranny that keeps coming to play at my LGS and no one will play with it. shit is funny as fuck

Where's straight pride day?

Please do not use gendered slurs

...

Hi, Wayne. Can I fug your bunghole?

Pfft...you haven't seen tense.

That's still one of my favorite pictures ever

>The Right and the Left can both fuck off, don't get your shit into my hobby.
It's too late for that. Every major company in the market has taken sides - unsurprisingly the side where the expect stronger customer base.

This just goes to show that everyone can be a bad human being, regardless of gender, race or sexuality.

So gender, race and sexuality really don't matter as much as alignment.

The Greeks actually despised gays like the rest of the ancient world. They tolerated bisexuals though.

You fags REALLY need to stop trying to press your ridiculous modern views onto people who didn't follow your stupid notions of immutable sexual orientation.

It's every day!

The other 364 days of the year.

Boogeymen implies that they are imaginary and deadly when in reality, SJW bullshit is everywhere, but it's usually only when you go looking for it that you find it.

As usual, /pol/ is right when they say that there are SJWs in the industry wanting to pander and virtue signal, but until it has a tangible impact on your own fun, then it's up to you to decide how sensitive you want to be about it.

>forcing churches
Link or shut the fuck up faggot

I love it, user. The hotter this pot can become the sooner we'll cook ourselves alive. Embrace the pedophilia and relish being the supporter of something current generations of NuMales would find decadent and degenerate.

Let them feel as you've felt.
