The meme is making the effort required to be educated or a fascist equivalent when they are not.
Being a fascist is intellectually easy.
Got a problem? Blame migrants Can’t get ahead? Blame Jews Can’t afford a house? Black people got too uppity
It’s a one trick pony, all problems are caused by someone else and I’m perfect.
Understanding the systemic reasons why women still aren’t paid the same as men or why a disproportionate amount of African Americans are incarcerated is hard and requires a lot of foundational groundwork to overcome the huge capitalist propaganda machine.
you’re kind of saying that this school of thought isn’t for everyone?
when, really, everyone would benefit from it.

Even though I do not have a problem with treating the things mentioned with respect, something about this text irritates me, but I can’t put my finger on it. Which feels really weird because I don’t like the feeling of something being off even though I can’t spot anything that actually bothers me.

Out of couriosity: I have never played the game, so… is the game actually unplayable if you decide to be intolerant against one or more of these? (As in: Is the tolerance and representation part of the core mechanics or is this just meant as a statement?)

Everything from the rules of the game to the GM guide to the pre written game settings are written with the assumption that players and the gm will be respectful and kind, but no you could absolutely try to play the game about connection-seeking queers fighting oppression and finding family as a bigot

It’s not their responsibility to teach but it’s also not my responsibility to keep abreast of all social developments. It’s inappropriate to gatekeep due to someone’s naive ignorance.
Picture this. Sitting at a table game and someone drops a term or phrase that I don’t recognise. Am I going to run to the toilet and google that term? Or am I just gonna say 'yo, what’s that mean?"
There’s a world of difference between hearing a term you’re not familiar with and saying something like, “I’ve never heard that before, would you mind telling me what it means?” and learning about someone’s marginalization and asking them a bunch of questions about it. I’m guessing this rule is targeting the latter.
Personally, if I meet someone who is marginalized, I avoid talking about their marginalization unless they bring it up and are clearly interested in talking about it. If they don’t want to be defined by it or be asked a bunch of questions about it, then that’s their right.

How on earth did you stumble across a comment that is 5 days old?
No objection with your framing. In fact, I tend to agree. My disagreement was the narrow / binary lens applied by the previous commentor. Their perspective (‘your responsibility to learn’) is/was an extremely dismissive approach.

I’m only subscribed to like three communities so I see a lot of the same posts when I sort by subscribed.
We both agree that it’s not all or nothing. It’s unreasonable to say that asking a good faith question is always bad, just like it’s unreasonable to demand someone answer questions about their marginalization. I was just pitching in my thoughts as to where the line is.

I did a wikipedia search a few days ago and it says you can just insert all sexualities you want. So you could just use heterosexuality, right?

You can play whatever you want, yes, thirst, lesbianism, and even swords, are all optional but highly encouraged
