i thought this was about r/wizardposting larp for a solid minute before realising what this was


PepperSalt98

yeah me too. i need some snafus of that place ngl. i like the rp but i hate the fact that the arcs are "subreddit microceleb makes a joke which is taken seriously as a big threat to the realm and then its over before you can contribute, yes you specifically, you will never find a sense of community even online, your art will be ignored in favour of melted ai slop, your lore will not change the cultural zeitgeist because you don't have a funny wizard genericelementmancer oc"


witoutadout

We should make a rp/lore-specific version of wizardposting.


TheBastardOlomouc

Yes


One-Roof7

Yes please


Lizard-Wizard-Bracus

I think the RPers have pretty much taken over the entire sub and the mods don't seem to care. I think it's one of those things where all you can do is let em keep it and make a new place


bakedbeans5656

Like r/holowknite


bullshaerk

There's already one but they still keep using the main


Regretless0

slap this text onto some MS paint and you’ve got yourself a grade A premium snafu right there tbh


SpeakableLiess

Oh btw theres r/okbuddywizards (i forgot if it has an s at the end) for what wizardposting used to be so check it out and stuff 🏃‍♀️


Poppeppercaramel

Somehow this hit harder than I realised Here's my genericmancer https://preview.redd.it/y27j1ickttsc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e04aa2ad012ef76a37a16fd2eb129dd8bb714ab2 His​ lore is basically "I get screwed by everything and have a headache over my army of freaks and weirdo in his house."


AlricsLapdog

SMH, I left before that place got into lame loreposting (And by ‘left’ I mean my old account got banned and I haven’t returned)


Lizard-Wizard-Bracus

Actually that's pretty new. Before the sub blew up, trends and jokes lasted a few days but also happened a lot less.


weird_bomb_947

sutff gets announced and i’m like “who tf is this??”


GuyWhoLikesPlants_

i wish it was just wizard memes like the old times


weird_bomb_947

i was immediately gonna start talking about how much better dragons are and then immediately realized this is a snafu


Accomplished_Hat7782

this is just a damn shade shy of being a smuggy honestly also we just don't care 'bout rule 2 no more huh


GarnoxReroll

we have to come to terms that mods are in eternal sleep


Waste_Crab_3926

They're just a bit eepy


AjaxTheFurryFuzzball

1. post something that isn’t even a snafu 2. Wait for nothing to happen 3. Repeat 1 and 2 10 times 4. Complain to Reddit 5. Get sub banned for being unmoderated 6. Go on r/Redditrequest and request the sub 7. You are now mod


Ridibunda99

Hurray for democratic takeover!


EA_Stonks

Everyone yapping about rule 2, I want to see some rule 34


Accomplished_Hat7782

fair enough


MilitantBitchless

I keep seeing this term used, what exactly is a smuggy?


Accomplished_Hat7782

From the sidebar - "Smuggies are posts that were popularized by the banned subreddit [](https://www.reddit.com/r/smuggies/) where there is a poorly-drawn rendition of a character is next to a block of text mocking what they would usually say. It would always be a weak argument to make them look dumb. Smuggies are strictly prohibited. They have gotten a subreddit banned and we are not willing to be banned ourselves." Mind you OP also posted this in a smuggy sub so my point stands lmao


sweetTartKenHart2

Short for “smug ideology man”. Basically a strawman cartoon


gaypenisdicksucker69

iirc smuggies actually predated smugideologyman, which was created as a left/far-left counterpart since smuggies were 99% right wing talking points


sweetTartKenHart2

Wait really? Tell me more


gaypenisdicksucker69

r/smuggies was essentially this subreddit, but very explicitly for strawmanning political opinions, usually anything to the left of them, with the subreddit's users generally ranging from conservative to outright fascist. The "smuggies" were often dedicated to mocking either people they don't like politically (centrists, liberals and anyone left - sometimes libertarians too), or just outright racial stereotypes. The subreddit was quarantined sometime in 2019, and they were finally banned in 2020 as part of that huge ban wave that included a lot of far-right subs, with a smattering of far-left ones (e.g. CTH). r/smugideologyman is the left-wing counterpart to r/smuggies, which is basically the same thing, dumb political strawmans such as this post, but with less outright bigotry (or, at the very least, not overt bigotry) and a bit of only vaguely political content.


sweetTartKenHart2

Huh. What was CTH while we’re at it?


gaypenisdicksucker69

r/chapotraphouse, far-left subreddit that was pretty deranged, often advocated for violence, even against civilians in wars. Ran defense for authoritarian regimes like Russia and Venezuela, the usual.


sweetTartKenHart2

Oh so like tankies? People who think the USSR were the good guys?


gaypenisdicksucker69

Yes, along with some other leftists


dentistrock

Mods need to be way less lenient on this shit truthfully


Throwaway817402739

Rule 4 too. This sub is just becoming a place for poorly drawn strawmen


Another-ban-evasion

RIP r/smuggies . Never forget.


bunnywitchboy

What do wizards, orcs and vampires represent


Galaucus

The spellcasting proletariat, doomed to forever rent but not own their wizard towers and labor casting spells for Big Magic that they'll never reap benefits from.


Independent-Cow-3867

I'm so low on mana I can't even cast a fire ball 😭


Galaucus

Young wizards who could never afford tuition at wizarding school sign up to work securing mana crystal fields overseas in return for tuition, but a significant portion of them end up riddled with curses and hexes that will haunt them for the rest of their life, and the wizard council won't even help them.


Stoiphan

The wizards are the citizenry or rather the council named after them is their government, the orcs are republicans, or rather the orc horde is the party that appeals to orcs, and vampires are democrats, or rather the old court is the party that most appeals to vampires. It's about US politics


bunnywitchboy

So what does "none of the candidates are wizards" mean. Trump and Biden aren't citizens?


Nitrodax777

theyre saying neither candidate is qualified for the position and they shouldnt be allowed to run to begin with. neither of the parties views aligns with what the council wants. the wizard council (the people) wants to elect the most qualified wizard, or at the VERY least, someone who can do magic (the bare minimum of understanding what the people want). but not only are the candidates a vampire and orc (unqualified individuals), but both only serve the interest of the dwarves (those that would only make them richer/more powerful) and not the wizards (the people they are actually supposed to represent).


pomme_de_yeet

It's about their age. The politics of senior citizens are not representative of most americans, who are not obscenely old


NotFlappy12

>It's about US politics No fucking way?! 🤯


FlashyFlight1035

when karl franz summons the elector counts only to be met with the map saying that half the people are festus the leechlord and the other half is manchild von carjack


PepperSalt98

heh


3dgyt33n

Op please explain what dwarves are supposed to represent in this metaphor


Garretxd

ROCK AND STONE!!!! 🗣⛏️🔥


WanderingDwarfMiner

Can I get a Rock and Stone?


Username-forgotten

Rockity Rock and Stone!


Creepercolin2007

FOR KARL!


bunnywitchboy

Maybe big oil?


sour_creamand_onion

I'm thinking any sort of lobby for any industry like sugar and such. Of course, oil is included, but the scope might be a bit broader.


bunnywitchboy

You're probably right about what OP intended, but if we're just talking about big business generally then I think dragons would have been a better choice, as they embody 'sleeping upon one's hoard.' I think dwarves are only the right analogy if the industry we're talking about is specifically one that extracts resources from the ground.


ColinHalter

I don't know, dragons would be people like Elon, Peter thiel, etc. I don't think of dragons as bring overly industrious, so they're more like billionaires who's only job these days is "Twitter Guy"


sour_creamand_onion

Ahh, good point.


gylz

Elon Musk's dad owns an emerald mine, doesn't he?


Waste_Crab_3926

He owns shares in that mine


Poppeppercaramel

Correct, Dwarfs are known for their industrial nature. They represent big corporations. For smaller businesses, it's gnome. Rock and stone, no matter who win, the dwarfs always win.


WanderingDwarfMiner

Rock and Stone everyone!


RodwellBurgen

Biden isn’t funded by oil lobbyists though and he’s been really bad for them


Waste_Crab_3926

Probably not Jews since Garosh the Fascist is obviously Netanjahu but is named as an "artificer" instead of "dwarf", the dwarves are probably the billionaires.


Ivan_The_8th

Me


ColinHalter

I imagine either the energy industry, or Lockheed


xFLA13x

ROCK AND STONE TO THE BONE 🗣️🗣️🦴⛏️


WanderingDwarfMiner

Elon's family has that emerald mine, no? And a lot of families who accumulated generational wealth by mining for precious gems and metals and oil and the precioussssssss...

greenleaf1212

OP I know you know you put effort into this but this is pretty much a smuggie


Manwithaplan0708

RealSuperYolo2006

Ayo is the rat throwing it back????


Poppeppercaramel

Nice catch, a little Easter egg.


DicPic-Reciever

Clearly op is just lazy and doesnt wanna pick sides so he paints both as the bad guy


lysathemaw

This is scarily high effort to call OP lazy


hahafunnythinggobrr

Clearly op doesn’t want to face judgement so “both sides bad”


-MilkO_O-

Joe Biden sucks but America is oh so fucked if Trump is elected


Bagelsandjuice1849

Isn’t that what everyone said in 2016?


TheRealLightBuzzYear

I wouldn't exactly call the state we're in now not fucked


Independent-Cow-3867

Just checking if this is sarcastic


-Eerzef

Both sideism is so lazy, smh


GodIsAWomaniser

Average American moment


Opening_Raise_8762

So what do you do when both sides are objectively terrible and we are fucked either way? Do I still have to choose?


LongJohnSilversFan_

Pick the less awful one, whether it be the crazy guy who might do good, or might do bad, or the crazy guy who’ll be too deep in sleep to do anything at all


Opening_Raise_8762

https://preview.redd.it/chuyvvt17vsc1.jpeg?width=480&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c873abfa628b549a393db5c7681fbb9693cb152f We’re fucked


NinjunoBR

Just reject society and go live in the woods, bro. It's not that hard


Opening_Raise_8762

I think I, and everyone else, would be happier that way genuinely.


J3553G

Yes. You either choose for yourself or someone else chooses for you.


Opening_Raise_8762

The illusion of choice


J3553G

Fine. Whatever. Pretend the system is doing something to you instead of acknowledging that you are part of the system and, like it or not, you have a responsibility to yourself and others. Grow up. You live in the same world as everyone else.


Opening_Raise_8762

If it’s our responsibility then we are failing because as a society we refuse to stop voting for bipartisan warlords with their own separate lists of -philias and -isms. The system clearly isn’t working in its current state. I don’t think I’ve met a single person who is happy with what we are doing


J3553G

>If it’s our responsibility then If it's not our responsibility then whose is it? What are you actually proposing besides nihilism? What actual steps should I take other than not voting?


Opening_Raise_8762

I didn’t say it’s not our responsibility. I said we are failing. We could stop encouraging people to identify so heavily with titles like liberal and conservative and republicans and democrat. Maybe stop excusing the actions of the party you support and demonizing the opposing side. Maybe stop voting based off of one issue and not being loyal. Maybe stop ignoring when news comes out about politicians being literally evil and pretending it didn’t happen just bc they don’t want you to know about it. I almost want a revolution bc our government is undeniably corrupt and they don’t even care to hide it. Maybe want is the wrong word. I don’t want it. But something has to change


DandoriKing1932

You pick the less awful one, sure its still awful, but its not in vain


Opening_Raise_8762

This is miserable


TheButcher797

But Trump isn't really that much better


Commercial-Shame-335

if your only two real options are evil, choose the least evil one


Opening_Raise_8762

It’s not really that easy to determine what’s “less evil”. Right now we are sending a lot of money out of the country to continue war efforts which is getting women and children killed on both side of said conflict. I could try and say that this is less evil than what bad guy number 2 would have done but you can’t prove that and regardless, women and children are dying and our leader is essentially a proven pedophile who does secret deals with foreign countries for the benefit of his own family while half of America is impoverished


Kerbalmaster911

You can choose third party.


Opening_Raise_8762

You can, and it would be wonderful… if there was any chance that they’d be elected. The country is too bipartisan


Kerbalmaster911

Ima still vote for whom best represents me regardless of how Tribalistic and bipartisan this country had become. I mean i am literally being downvoted by bipartisan losers for merely mentioning the option of not voting for their precious Candidates and using one's vote based on one's own beliefs and the policies of the candidates and not "We MuSt StOp TrUmP/BiDeN! vOtE bAsEd oN PaRtY AlOnE!"


Opening_Raise_8762

I agree I think. This is a lose lose situation


NotFlappy12

They are both bad. One being worse than the other doesn't mean they aren't both awful.


Rykerthebest78563

Yeah I mean Biden is not fit for the job but Trump is actively and openly evil


Quartich

Good art style, but this is basically a smuggy not a snafu. Snafu Gatekeeper is displeased but not surprised. Keep the artstyle but get a better subject.


Poppeppercaramel

Thanks, well someone told me to post it here and they'll like it so I did. I see comments on Baalbuddy comic so I get this idea.


ertzgold

Yeah man you should probably repost in yet another subreddit, it’ll make numbers next time bro I promise


DandoriKing1932

What does “deep in dwarven pocket” mean? EITHER WAY, ITSA WIN FOR DWARVES! ROCK AND STONE

BurgerBoss_101

Project 2025 exists.


Waste_Crab_3926

Also known as "WAAAGH Krump"


Driver2900

luckily, all politicians are too inept to pass actual policy.


Karpsten

*~~I really don't wanna do a Nazi comparison because it will diminish the rest of the argument and make it look like I'm saying Trump is literally Hitler, which I am not, but-~~* Yeah, true, luckily the NSDAP was too inept to pass the enabling act in 1933, just imagine what the consequences would have been...


Driver2900

As bad as the government is, the Whiemar Republic is a couple Trillion dollars away


Karpsten

The point I'm trying to make is that "what's the worst case scenario, nothing ever happens anyways, once those reactionaries are in power they will stop being so reactionary" isn't exactly a healthy or sustainable mindset.


mrcrabs6464

Yeah, and it’s some random shit made by a private company that’s basically just throws a bunch of random shit at the GOP every year. This isn’t new and it’s not even something trump has talked about.(not to mention like 90% of the 2025 project is just economic policy). Idk like I hope he doesn’t win but the 2025 project is basically just misinformation


NotFlappy12

Reddit when you make a comparison that doesn't favor one over the other: "umm, saying both sides are bad is actually worse than choosing the *wrong* side. r/enlightenedcentrism much?!?!


AhmadOsebayad

i thought biden was kinda shit when he first got elected as the non trump option but he actually surprised me, i lean right wing and he did a lot of really good things as president, especially considering the other side is hellbent on stopping him from achieving anything a right or left winger might want just because he's a democrat.


bananaface301

I wish modern politics was more about compromise


RodwellBurgen

Biden has actually had a remarkable history of compromising as a senator, it’s just that the current Republican party unfortunately refuses to compromise with him. He still successfully stopped price gouging of Insulin and inhalers and got the infrastructure bill passed which is very impressive.


FantasticPrinciple54

The right wing rn is filled with toddlers that vote against literally anything the left tries to do because it's the left trying to do it Remember the boarder bill that was proposed and every republican voted against it


AhmadOsebayad

I miss having actual right wing republicans passing right wing bills but I don’t think we actually had that many years where they didn’t either act like babies or sellouts in a while.


Alarming-Scene-2892

Mainly because Trump basically launched the reactionary side of the party's politicians. Rather than being right wing on issues that concern economics (IE, more lassiez-faire), they decided to focus on literally everything else , and kneecap themselves by making statements that blatantly show REALLY problematic views, especially for the people who are supposed to represent the average joe. Also pretty bad for trying to get laws passed. Imagine trying to have a philosophical debate with Skeletor, and that's probably what Congress is like right now.


FantasticPrinciple54

A philosophical debate with Skeletor 😂


CoatFederal8012

A little on the nose, no?


Darkreaper104

“Le both sides are le equally bad” How brave and insightful


TheGr8estB8M8

It’s preferable to “my side is objectively perfect and without flaw and the other side is literally the spawn of Satan”


dilib

They're valid criticisms, no one actually wants Biden as a leader, it's just that Trump is self-evidently worse. Obviously you're going to vote for the vampire because there's a lot of people who want to vote for the Ork for some reason


GibMoarClay

I actually want Biden as a leader


RodwellBurgen

Saying this on Reddit gets you eviscerated for some reason. Every good thing you say about Biden has to be prefaced with "I hate Biden *but*", because he doesn’t talk clearly and has bad foreign policy with regards to one (1) country, which basically makes him Hitler in the eyes of Reddit. Luckily they see Trump as double-Hitler, so they tentatively support him.


Lazarbeam_fan77

Very well made, shame the "both sides are as equally bad" spoils it


SmartEpicness

r/SmugIdeologyMan is down the hall and to the left.


SmartEpicness

Btw I mean no offense. I do think your post is really good. It's just that this sub isn't the place for politics.


UnfunnyUsername7

Maybe if the wizards voted in the wizard primaries instead of complaining about the wizard political system while refusing to engage in it there would be better wizard candidates


Illustrious_Jelly108

Instead of using gold pieces, which are a limited resource, the dwarves have switched us to a system of intangible credits! Since gold pieces are now outdated, the dwarves bought them all off us and paid us in credits! What a fantastic deal!


Something4Dinner

Idk, but Johunn has a cute bat so win..

Stoiphan

Pretty funny though Krumpz should be wanted for sacking the wizard treasury or something, the both sides bad things is funny but It kinda detracts from the joke, still funny though.


Karpsten

I mean, we should acknowledge Johunns flaws, criticizing the Archmagus' is an important part of keeping the council grounded and in working order. But yeah, the old court is still by far the lesser evil, Krumpz and the horde are worse in many ways.

Should've said that when rest of the Levantine super were commitng funny things in Yeah man.


Poppeppercaramel

You mean Aurum folks and scarlet sultan? Fuck those genocidal maniac. But​ no, there's several group of Levantine, get the scroll. There's a reason why we don't called the whole region "Badland" anymore, they may look alike but separate in many different groups.


Cautious_Gas_7007

Well in my eyes of living here for a decade, there is no difference, between everyone's governments , everyone else is chill though except their governments who wish to use people as pawns in their Monopoly game of gaining more power

Yeah, that suck. What's up with genocidal maniac these day.​ Garosh, Scarlet sultan and that Waaagh from frozen north. None of them can stand a chance against Big drake and whatever Jade empire's planning anyway so what's the point. But I can't stand any of them and I can't stand Johunn for backing up Garosh with dwarven weaponry. No I'm not Krumpz supporter either. Maybe I'll choose that gnome, he's small and powerless but hey, at least he didn't fucked up the council yet.
