Of all tyrannies,a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

I'm still waiting for someone to explain the dannflor scum read to me by the way. Frogsterking simply said I was scummy for even asking. Would someone else do the honors?

I think Shea's entrance is towny but it's also the easiest type of post to make replacing a scum slot in night phase

like that's the exact type of post I've made multiple times as scum who wants to impress

I think my read is overall net positive because of the way Shea just sorta dumped his thoughts and then tried to reset and get into live vibing mode. I think scum in that situation is more likely to cling to their catchup wall post and stick to a direction from there if that makes any sense. Shea is a little more all over the place

fwiw I don't think I've ever made that sort of entrance post as either alignment. This one determines my whole meta. Exciting!

Man imagine someone dredging up some game in 2007 or something where I did this as scum and GOTCHAing me. What a way to get misyeeted. That would be so iconic I kind of hope it happens.

How long have you thought each person on that list could be scum?

I literally did in the post he's responding to and was following up when you posted this.

Can you kindly back the Fuck up off me when I'm not talking to you at all? I get it, you think I'm scum. I'm happy to interact with you about that and I'm sure you'll vote me eventually, but do NOT interfere with me questioning someone who is not you and trying to sort them.
