I mean, that's why I said I'd be interested to talk with someone who espouses that view. Party identification has maybe never been stronger, and the positions of the two parties have never been farther apart on many issues.

The most interesting people are the ones who claim Democratic party identity and yet accept the Republican position on this. I'd be interested to talk to one of these people to learn about their worldviews. Single issue voters for something like abortion? Just don't like the color red? I need answers.

Yeah, don't expect funding for AAA games!
Wait...
From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me.
LGBTQ+ issues are kind of a warzone right now, because conservatives see trans rights issues especially as a wedge issue they can use to pull in people who might support gay marriage but still feel confused or grossed out by things like trans women using women's bathrooms.
This conversation eats up a lot of the space that could be used to talk about things that would (should?) actually be less controversial, like accessibility.
Conservatives don't want to talk about it because it would be a straightforward loser for them. Lots of progressives don't have time to talk about it because they're circling the wagons to fight for trans people having the right to... (checks notes) exist.
This isn't to say disability issues aren't as important. The point of intersectional activism is for many disparate groups to fight together against the kinds of people who want to separate them. A rising tide that helps everyone.
It sucks because it's slow and painful and people get increasingly tribal when they feel under threat.
Because they're socially liberal, opposed to most forms of social conservatism. The term rose to prominence in its current US meaning in the 1920s and 30s.
It was first used (in this sense) to identify a more moderate economic approach as compared to movements that were perceived as more radical like progressivism, socialism, communism, etc.
Right wing extremism is a global problem and is manifesting even in parliamentary multi-party systems, though. All they need is a scapegoat to rally around and they're good to go. Look at anti-immigrant movements in Europe as an example.
Fighting about things is going to happen in any political system.
I think glorifying the grind has come naturally along with most people not being able to afford all of the previous generation's big landmark goals like homes and things.
Kind of like how the move towards more employment options for women naturally came with the death of the single-earner household.

Hello, welcome to the internet.
Seems like Kislev is getting the best in terms of units, the Incarnate of Beasts seems pretty op.
It's gonna make their armies look kind of disjointed, though, imho. The hags nearly look like an entirely different faction and they probably could've benefitted from more infantry units that fit their theme.
I hope Beastmen can get access to the incarnate somehow at some point, seems more fitting for them honestly.
