Politics used to be something people engaged in. Now politics is the core to a lot of people's identities, which means disagreement or debate is perceived as a personal attack and people will embrace a tremendous amount of cognitive dissonance to avoid being wrong.

"YOU" are not your argument. Disagreement is not an attack on you as an individual and should not be taken as such.

 

I consider myself an extreme novice when it comes to table top TPGs in general. (Played maybe 1 game of DnD 3.5, 1 game of Warhammer Fantasy Roleplaying Game, and 1 game of DnD 5E in the last 20 years)

I have been playing a 2E game the last 9 months or so and am really loving it. Our GM gave us this as a cheat sheet, so while unrelated to my post, I'm putting it here since it helps me.
