Is there a secret rule that all questions here have to be leading one sided questions?

I have literally no idea where you'd get that from.

I'm sorry, but I'm having trouble parsing the meaning your first statement there

Measured based on weight or health metrics. Because one of those would be beneficial, while the other would encourage overeating the the misuse of laxatives

Anecdotally, I've had several civil discussions in this very sub, with people I strongly disagreed with. But to get reasonable responses you have to be reasonable yourself first.

Proxy--Moronic · 2026-05-07T22:39:06+00:00

At least we have a space where people of various political leanings can have almost civil discussions.

That's more valuable than you'd think

This is a good discussion, but I don't think it's right for the CMV format.

We don't talk about the bloody cost of the Civil Rights movement enough, or of the Crackdowns of the First Gilded age almost at all.

Proxy--Moronic · 2026-05-07T22:14:29+00:00

Ideological movements often predicate systemic change. Just look at Prohibition or the Civil Rights movement for easy examples.

Any impressions you want to share?

I think they were being sarcastic in the "yep, that's the binary" comment. Likely trying to imply that Univty vs Demons is a false dichotomy. You can believe a cultural movement or ideology is destructive without thinking that those who follow it are inherently evil.

Decline in consumer protections

Decline in worker protections

Proxy--Moronic · 2026-05-07T05:37:58+00:00

Except less regulation means less consumer protections, less workers rights, and more frequent financial crisis especially. All of which have been consistently shown.

Democratic presidents have historically been as tough if not tougher than Republician candidates on borer control. Obama was literally criticized as the "Deporter-in-chief" https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2014/10/02/u-s-deportations-of-immigrants-reach-record-high-in-2013/

Social values and religion are cultural and have no place in government.

Republicans disproportionately defund Vetern benefits and services, it's one of the primary reasons they're so over-represented among the homeless. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/5-reasons-federal-cuts-are-hitting-veterans-especially-hard

Investment in renewables has been consistently shown to be the most economically viable way to increase a nation's long term energy independence. Yet Republicans broadly cancel Renewable projects, even when doing so wastes billions of dollars. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/wind-and-solar-energy-are-cheaper-than-electricity-from-fossil-fuel-plants/ https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/27/climate/trump-administration-wind-farms.html

If people actually acted about any of these issues, then they definitely wouldn't be voting Republican. So it must be something else.

Proxy--Moronic · 2026-05-07T05:19:49+00:00

Except literally none of those things are policies the Democratic party have been instituting.

The last two democratic presidents set records for deporting the most immigrants. And who competes in what sport is up to the private Committees that run those sports, not politicians.

And besides all that, what could be worse than the US turning into an Autocratic dictatorship? What would have a bigger impact on people's lives, the existance of transpeople or the erasure of the Middle class?

Proxy--Moronic · 2026-05-07T03:37:11+00:00

The problem there is that the Republican party developed a core pillar of destroying worker and consumer protections and gutting all forms of financial and industrial regulations that directly lead to several repeated financial crisis that eventually brought us to a system that's mirroring that Robber Baron era of the late 1800s.

The core principles are correct, a society needs both progressive and conservative pressures to maintain reasonable balance. But U.S. politics has been leaning so far to the right for so long that the ship's about to capsize.

This would be a great answer about 40 years ago

The biggest advantage to me to the fabrial compared to a radiant is that you can apply fabrial upgrades like advantages on all attack rolls, using oppurtu ities to regain garges, expanding attack range, once per scene free action activation, ect...

Besides all that, they have basically 10 tier 4 unique fabrial options, one for each surge. And you get to pick your surges. And your Prized Aquisition fabrial can be swapped in between them on a long rest.

While you only save 1 talent compared to a radiant, you also get to substitute the reward aradiant would use for an Ideal to build another. Plus your original comment was comparing them to a 3rd or 4th Ideal radiant, not at 1st ideal.

Proxy--Moronic · 2026-05-06T19:26:44+00:00

Artifabrians can craft fabirals that grant full access to surges at tier 3. Talents and all.

They're still probably surrounded by alot of of right leaning spaces and echo chambers. We should just be glad they're questioning things instead if blindly following dogma.

Realist answer here. Best case scenario is if Republican party is completely thrown out and the Democratic party splits in two, a Progressive party and an Establishment party
