"liberal" is significantly less specific in its implications, both in terms of modern day parlance and historical roots, than "zionist"

i like the concept of hiring other gooners to have a big sweaty circlejerk with
you ask a comedically loaded question, receive one in response, then get mad?
what?
set up by who?
he was the one in charge
Redfalls team is done for sure.
which is wild, because there's clearly a lot of talent there that was just spunked up the wall trying to create a game that any idiot could see right from the outset was conceptually awful
You really don’t have to keep attacking me you know?
buddy i literally just took what you said and changed a few words around. if it feels like attacking you then maybe do some self reflection?
where have i attacked you?
So is Traveller TTRPG, or Babylon Five, Warhammer 40K, etc., etc.
put literally anything from 40k next to literally anything from star wars and it becomes painfully obvious that they're two distinct properties
you're aware 40k essentially also has the force too, right? i'm not sure what point you're trying to make here
I’m talking the unique points of the world building/lore.
what unique points?
jedi are reskinned samurai, and the force is just a reskinned magic system combined with reskinned buddhism
then why not watch one of the many other options with jedi?
the eu is filled with stories that aren't about jedi or the force
so yeah, you're picking and choosing what counts based on your personal vibes
Just because you declare it as arbitrary doesn’t mean it’s actually arbitrary.
either you're defining star wars by the films, or you're picking and choosing what really "counts"
you're doing the latter
I guess I’ve just seen more movies than you
I guess you just don't really understand Star Wars as well as you think you do 🤷♂️
it's an aesthetic and a setting
if you define it as a narrative you can't step outside the first three films
doubling down on the stance of not understanding linguistics isn't the play you seem to think it is
the wikipedia article on zionism is several thousand words long, and you seem to think it's possible to accurately boil that down to a one or two sentence dictionary entry
it's more that they don't have a definition at all
they use it similarly to "woke", in that its a nebulous word that takes on any given meaning that they want given the context
if you tried to distill its myriad of uses into an actual definition you'd get something like "person i disagree with to the point of dislike", at which point the dumb part becomes making an assertion as utterly vacuous as "i don't like people i don't like"
it's completely dissimilar
