@GTacc why are you voting me?
Other things like homophobia and racism are undeniably bad, but the verbiage using words that people attributed to situations even if incorrectly by definition is a gray area.
To be honest, anytime and anyplace is the time & place to increase awareness of social issues.
Hey StarV, can you play the game instead of arguing about off-topic things? I’ll give you a banana split if you do.
it’s odd to me that social issues are problems
Hey Jake, I’m ready to end the day, if you need more time to think about who’s town and who’s mafia, then by all means…
What the fuck, this is the maf451 version of the line I was supposed to say in mafiauniverse

It is always the time and place to steer society towards a path of equality, and recognizing past behaviors or phrases that hurt this goal is part of the process.
If trying to be better doesn’t permeate every aspect of our lives, even a low stakes mafia game, then pockets of where racism can exist will still always exist.
oh fuck, starv beat me to a post.
happy birthday starv.
this is getting too preachy for my liking
im going back to hftf
I don’t think we need to be steered toward it. We need to stop being steered away
and I should stop trying to protest just because you don’t like it?
its a mafia game
i think people are more responding to humor you than to actually have a dialogue
You are coming across as liking making someone uncomfortable what goes against what I believe the end goal should be.
Sometimes people don’t want to be bashed over the head with “Don’t be rasict you little fucker” 24/7. I agree with what you say, but I don’t agree that we should make it our sole goal to talk about it to the point where it prohibits us from doing everything else. If we always worry about a flood, then we will forget about the other natural disasters.
steering towards equality and away from racism are two separate things that both need to be done.
I’m forgetting the exact quote, but peace is not the absence of racism but the presence of justice. Generally I dislike blanket words like peace and justice since they can be sprinkled on anything to make it look good, but I think this is one of the few times where they make sense.
I never said it should be the sole goal at the expense of everything else…
You implied it when you said
