And any argument that we should somehow keep using a word that will harmful just because we have used it for so long is the same as saying it is okay to glorify a racist with a statue or name a military base after a confederate general.
Just because it is history doesn't mean we should glorify it with public use.Yes my Lord, but questions are dangerous, for they have answers.

Explain why EXECUTE is not a practical solution that does not have a racial history. It fits the theme, it functions very clearly as <we are killing this person> and executions tend to be done in public, and in the past by public consent.
So explain why Execute is SIGNIFICANTLY worse than Lynch, without using an argument that implies it is easier to use lynch because we have always used it.

Cause creature, the issue is this
It is impossible to tell online the difference between someone who genuinely believes somehow that keeping on using a racially charged word that hurts people is MOST PRACTICAL
and an asshole racist who says those words to fit into common society.
And given I have provided an alternative... as have many others... I think we are reasonably safe in assuming the second, because it is safer for our communities to not harbour racist assholes.
You understand that?Yes my Lord, but questions are dangerous, for they have answers.

That's your argument.In post 1081, Creature wrote:
Execution seems to be done by an authority instead of simple citizens desperate to take justice into their own hands.In post 1076, Lady Lambdadelta wrote:Explain why EXECUTE is not a practical solution that does not have a racial history. It fits the theme, it functions very clearly as and executions tend to be done in public, and in the past by public consent.Most games it should be doable, but it'll still be confusing if the mod decides to add a role that involves executing.
That it will be confusing if a Mod.... in DESIGNING THEIR GAME... adds a role that kills a player... and wants to use the flavour execute....
Then in that game, the mod could build the flavour around this, right?
Since when has a single case scenario ever been sufficient to be a good argument?
You yourself said it, see bolded. Most games it should be functionally completely the same, and in the small case where someone wants to use Execution flavour for a role, they could find other words for either the town vote kill OR the execution ability. Case by case for a small thing like that, and in return for something that you have yoruself ADMITTED WORKS.
We get to remove something that represents systemic racist bias in our community once and for all.
Why are you still opposed again?Yes my Lord, but questions are dangerous, for they have answers.

This is also mask off racism.In post 107, Clair wrote:
This attitude is actually racist. I know many black people who play mafia and are, in fact, smart enough to disassociate the word "lynch" from fear of actually being lynched.

But perhaps, maybe those people “suddenly” became bothered by it ONLY because they were introduced to evidence that suggested its bad, and they were given a platform to express that and eliminate anyone who disagrees because if they disagree then they must be racist.

In post 339, JamSV wrote:While we're at it
I have the following suggestions
The word "wagon" should no longer be used, when black people were slaves in the US, they'd use wagons to carry stuff. Ergo it instils racist history into our game and may upset people.
The word "bus" should no longer be used, Rosa Park sat on the bus. Ergo using it instils racist history into our game and may upset people.
The Tracker role, should be removed. It may upset victims of stalking.
Execution / similar is also not acceptable, during the Holocaust, and still in many places in the world today, people were executed by firing squad, this may upset people.
Voting should also be removed, in America democracy doesn't always work ie Trump 2016 or Bush 2004. This will make people young innocent people to believe democracy exists, thus upsetting people.
Mafia the name, should also be removed, there have been many victims to the Mafia, especially in places like Italy. Don't be xenophobic and upset Italians who may have suffered!
FoS should also be removed! Pointing at people may trigger anxiety!!
Throughout many years many were killed by Ninja. Do you want to upset the Japanese or the fortnite players?!?!
Strongman should be changed to strongperson or strongthing! You don't want to upset people! Not only men can be strong!
Similar to tracker, watcher should be removed! For victims of stalking and voyeur stuff!
Beloved Princess isn't gender neutral!
Bomb should be removed as a role for the vets out there and the refugees!
Godfather, of course changed to godparent.
Hooker!!!! How dare you portray women as sexual objects with that word!!
Judas??? We aren't all from christian majority countries. This is not okay!!
Paranoid as a role modifier? Are we making fun of people with anxiety?
Virgin sexualises people!!
This ^ is all nonsense. Grow up. I'm not going to stop using Lynch. Either we ban everything incase we upset people, or we ban nothing. If we only ban stuff which upsets the black community, you're saying every other community hasn't suffered or they're suffering is invalid. It's disgusting, your attempt to be woke has shown just how much you hate races which aren't black.
This topic and new rule is baloney.
My friend's cousin's mum's dog's walker's mum's friend unfortunately committed suicide by noose. It's not much to go off but seeing it reminds me that people suffer, and that I should be doing what I can to help people. Removing it will negatively impact my gameplay.
^ obviously bullshit.

True, but I really think that if I stood here and said <I am against the word lynch because my people in the trans community are dying> it would diminish the point and be disingenuous.In post 1157, kuribo wrote:Nevermind that I also linked an article discussing trans people being lynched too
Especially since the majority of those deaths are BLACK Trans women.

I remember this.In post 1178, kuribo wrote:I'll tell you a story.
I used to use that gif of Ed Norton in American History X. Yeah, the one where he's curb stomping the Black dude. In my mind I didn't consider it racially offensive, because I knew my heart and to me it was just some edgelord shit. Then one day, and I remember vividly that it was a game GreyICE was modding, Revolution Mafia, I posted the gif as I had several times before. MattP, a person I deeply respect, called me out for it. And I mean he was furious. Let me tell you, I felt like shit for pissing off and hurting one of my favorite posters.I apologized sincerely, and do you know what I did then? I never fucking used it again because I understood how I had inadvertently hurt someone I respected.
It's not that Fucking hard to stop doing insensitive things. You just... don't do them. If you really and truly care about the people in your community, you make it a point to not be harmful to them. You grow as a person and you make their lives just that tiny bit more pleasant.
This is a lesson people should take to heart. This is goodposting.
Also, people should fucking watch american history X. That is also a good lesson.Yes my Lord, but questions are dangerous, for they have answers.

Ari, don't get banned. I know what you are going for, but I am pretty sure the mod team has a policy against baiting people into bannable offenses. and sayign the N word would absolutely be one.In post 1191, Aristophanes wrote:
Okay then, call someone the N word.In post 1128, TrueSoulEnergy wrote:Despite me not caring about the “lynch” term.
I thought I’d share this in case other stuff is brought up.
Now Yes certain events in history were bad and very disgusting.
But it has nothing to do with a term as a whole.
Just because a term can refer to something that may appear to be racist doesn’t mean it is.
Ever heard the saying “Life is what you make it”.
That applies here.
Yes the word is known for being bad in the past but that just means someone can take initiative and change the word from being bad and degrading to something good and pure. (Or at least not as bad as people make it look like it is)
People can change so why can’t terms or things change?
Spoiler Alert - Anything and Anyone can Change.
Right now.
Make it positive.
No?
Okay then.
Because this is the same argument.
Words can change in meaning. That's why"Fag"and "lynch" and many others are not appropriate in our current society.
Give it time to become uncharged and then maybe the word can be reclaimed.
But while it holds an actively negative connotation, that will not change.
There are other ways to teach him. If that's your thing.Yes my Lord, but questions are dangerous, for they have answers.

The difference between the white moderate and the mask off racist in this sense is completely non existent, except that the white moderate gets people to make arguments like this for them and in theri defense.In post 1233, Nahdia wrote:i dont necessarily agree that people who obtusely refuse to accept they cant just will away social connotations to a word are racist.
