Some quirk of this version of Markdown I think.
Try putting two spaces at the end of a line before your single newline.

Political parties are part of the culture war too. The rich don't fit into a party. They like right wing economics because it keeps them rich, sure, but they push left wing culture because it gets people off their backs. As a whole, they play the two parties against each other, and we probably won't be able to stop that unless we can get more parties into the running.

Political hatred - probably the most prominent form of hatred in the US - is driven by the dichotomy, the "you're either with me or against me" that's made so convenient by the fact that everyone has to fit into one of two buckets anyways. Throw more parties into the mix, and it's harder to make that distinction because any given party works with you sometimes and against you at other times, and if you label them all as enemies, you're going up against the majority of the country.

It's easier said than done, though. Duverger's law states that the maximum number of viable political parties is the number of seats in a given election + 1. So we can't just will another political party into viability without booting out one that we already have. We have to change the voting structure. Proportional representation in congressional elections sounds good, and with fewer voting districts, it's also harder to gerrymander. But that's gonna be hard to push for.

Once we can accomplish that, the hatred will slowly subside (but not entirely,) and people will be able to see more clearly to deal with the class struggle. Plus, with more parties, we might even be able to vote in candidates who support the actual economic changes we want instead of just paying lip service to the lower classes.

I wasn't very nice to plants as a kid. I would often pluck wood sorrel off the ground and eat it right there. I once burned a hole in a leaf using my glasses. I'm a meat eater today.

I never met the guy.

I had to zoom my screen out to 50% to fit that video.

Who's this X fellow I keep hearing about?

Huh... never thought of that. Though I think a key difference is that it's one race diluting many races, rather than... well, in great replacement theory, it's not even whites being diluted by other races, it's them being replaced by way of high immigrations and low birth rates. So if it was like a large group of humans migrating into an elvish city, then yes, but this is more like the elvish country gaining a population of half elves and eventually humans around the edges.

From what I can tell in the wiki, great replacement people aren't so much threatened by half-minorities as they are by flocks of minorities moving in until whites are the minority. It's the culture shock, and you don't get as much of a culture shock from someone who was raised on the edges of your culture.

Not to say you have to include human hegemony in your campaign, of course. Your campaign, your rules, and you know what your players are comfortable with more than I do.

As it turns out, it you post a line that starts with "some" and contains "told me" soon thereafter, my brain tries to add a tune.

Alternative: humans were specifically engineered to be able to half-breed with anything - even elemental beings - so that they'd be able to take over the world.

I read somewhere a while back that you can have health benefits from cutting anything out of your diet, even if you don't have any negative reactions to what you cut out.

Gluten intolerance is still a possibility, but not the only possibility.

It's already named after ground.

Why sorry?
