I know people love Ariel, but why does he feel the need to tell us this like an hour in advance of the actual announcement?

I don't think they pay 1 million dollar checks, I thought it was that over the course of the playoffs all the wins total to one million

2nd playthrough after reading first 5 books by TheCloser455 in Witcher3

I've noticed a lot of l references after reading the books, and it makes me wonder how anything made sense to me when I played through the first time years ago. But they do a good job of still making things clear to people with no background info.

They should be looked at individually, not compared

That's exactly what I'm saying

I think you mean internment camps.

And while I get your point, I think comparing one atrocity to another is not a great practice.

Shouldn’t it be looked into why the police helped the local KKK yesterday instead of arresting them like what happened in Idaho? by Next-Bullfrog-1624 in boston

I like when people are allowed their constitutional right of organization. The people involved have nothing to do with it.

But I'm glad we're all having a good faith discussion and not trying to demonize each other.

That might be true their march accomplished something but it didn't. How did they exploit our tolerance besides being able to walk around in their goofy uniforms? And yet we're all still okay.

I think our police protecting them is good optics. It tells everyone that this is a place that still respects the rights of the citizenry, even if we disagree with them. Without arrests, riot police, etc this has become a non story. The protestors don't get their headlines and their victim complex, better luck next time.

I disagree about taking away rights because we disagree with them. They're a side show that no one here takes seriously. It's fun to have a villain that you feel like you can treat like a villain, but it's not worth betraying your values for.

Working to make them afraid is even giving them too much respect.

Is that something you want to sink to?

Let them walk around and make asses of themselves, no one is buying what they're selling. Arresting them just gives them ammunition about how they're oppressed.

I read his book and I think the eye issue cemented it, but that doesn't mean he hasn't made a clean break now.
