Why is mind control evil but mind control (animals) is exclusively a good power that the most innocent of people use?
>>97740587Imagine using something as retarded as alignments in 2020+6. Here is your (you).
>>97740587fart
>>97740587You're a disingenuous faggot and your bait sucks. For the sake of your fellow retard peers, since there are alot of them here, when animals aid "good" characters it's because they have gentle, pure, or virtuous souls and the animals are doing so willingly. Not because the character is using mind-control. Please never post here again.
>>97740587Do you have any thoughts of your own on the matter? Be detailed and specific
>>97740587It's not any more controlling than the real pheromones that make animals listen to alphas
>>97740774We know you are, nice projection loser
>>97740587Says who, and why does it affect how you play your games?
>>97740587 (OP)Are you just spamming this on all boards?>>>/co/152884635
>>97740609*1980+46ftfy
>>97742345>Implying OP is a human or even an organic
>>97740609Alignment is based. You are not.
>>97742345Disgusting behavior
>>97742693Absolute DnD-brainrot take. You fuckers can't even agree what alignment means in your own game half the time.
>>97740587>mind control (animals) is exclusively a good power that the most innocent of people use?because your idea of "good" is defined by Judeo-Christian narration
There is no way you wouldn’t become an evil piece of shit if you had the ability to control minds. It’s incredibly unrealistic to assume that you wouldn’t. It’s up there as ‘the ultimate ability’, and ‘absolute power corrupts absolutely’, absolutely. You’d be treating humans like appendages, not as people. It might even deteriorate brains to the point where they’re vegetables unless ordered otherwise. Read Carrion Comfort by Dan Simmons (RIP).
>>97743053Speak for yourself. I'm incorruptible.
>>97743053I'd argue that one can have the capability without exercising it. If it's an ability you have to cultivate, yes, anyone who chooses to do so isn't long for the rosier side of the moral spectrum. But someone who finds themself with the power could remain a virtuous person by refusing to use it as anything other than a last resort.
>>97743011The book is consistent, people just don't read it
>>97740587>Why are my posts called dumb and retarded but good posts start a conversation?
>>97743053Horrific novel. Surprised they haven't made a movie or mini-series about it yet.
>>97743306>"We're not retarded, we just don't read!"That... that sure is a choice of argument. Not sure what I expected from a DnDrone though.
>>97740587Same reason it's ok to eat cows but the greatest of taboos to eat humans. We don't recognize the moral agency of animals.There will come a day when human beings look back on the barbaric times when our civilization refused to acknowledge animal rights in roughly the same way that modern societies look back with disgust upon the practice of chattel slavery. We already know, for a fact, that there are no qualities intrinsic to the human mind and sense of self that other animals do not possess. Your great, great, great... grandchildren will view you as a monster for eating meat.
>>97743011Don't assume my table is retarded because yours is.
>>97740587It is? Fucking Dracula of all characters had animal control.
>>97744061Fun fact. A lot of Draculas powers were because of Gypsy magic, not vampirism
>>97740587Mind Control is totally OK for gently reverse-mindbreaking hot evil qts.
>>97744127>Gypsy magicHe was a student of the Devil at the Scholomance you mythlet.
>>97744025I assume your table is retarded because YOU have show yourself to be retarded.
>>97743050There is no religion that considers controlling animals evil and brainwashing humans good, redditor.
>>97743053This. Humans are absolute animals if given the means.
>>97749535>what is Islam?
>>97743053>>97749537retards that you are, you don't realize I'm already corrupt and my autistic fixation is on perfectly run civilizations.I will achieve a 100% happiness and fulfillment rating by any means necessary. Even if I have to start taking random brain samples to make sure people aren't lying on their mandatory happiness reviews.
>>97740669/thread
>>97749650Ok.
I have heard nether be argued as inherently good or evil. Stop getting your morality from Disney movies. They are very twisted people who have never had a firm grasp of morality.Especially now days.
>>97740587Kill yourself, vegan faggot.
>>97757830?????
>>97740587Because animals aren't conscious you fucking retard
>>97760086My dog isn’t self aware???
>>97740587It's not mind control. Animals are just generally very compliant.
>>97740587Ok vegan
>>97740587Cite your sources.Any source.Animal Mind Control or Mind Control (Animal) are not common, standardized things.
>>97764605Cthulhu wouldn’t do that. He is an alien from space. Not a sea animal.
>>97774080he is literally a squid man. are you some kind of jokester?
>>97774104Convergent evolution.
>>97743011Retards hate alignment because it conflicts with Current Year post-modernism where everything has to be relative and there is no objective good or bad. But that's not how it works in D&D, where good and evil are cosmological forces that have physical embodiments.
>>97740587What system are you even talking about?
>>97784041Pretty sure most people just don't like it cause it is stale, played out, and had been memed to death by the late 00's. But by all means turn it into a moral panic in your head if you want. That seems to be all /tg/ is for these days.
>>97743053Was that the novel that ends up with the jew summoning the minds of all the people that died in the Holocaust to help him beat the psychic nazi?
>>97786165He memorized them. Stalled the Nazi.
Bump
>>97791756Kill yourself. Kill yourself immediately. Do not pass Go, do not collect $200, kill yourself right now.
>>97745470Faggot. Be a real man and rape them good with just your dick not with some fucking mind control bullshit.>>97749565(((Anon))) please.>>97787060Zero's not hard to memorize.
>>97791933Don't cut yourself on all that edge, Vegeta.
>>97791785??????
>>97791933Lmao
>>97744021>We don't recognize the moral agency of animals.Anon most people don't respect the moral regency of humans. The average person is a bootlicking freak who thinks we exist to be tax slaves of rich pedos.
>>97740587that's not mind control dipshit, when a druid commands animals those animals are choosing to help out of their own choice.
>>97764605Aquaman has actual mind control though. Occasionally he's strained himself to use it on unwilling beings like Cthulu or humans.
>>97742693Based. Alignment makes faggoids seethe. The sad part is if they actually did alignment right then it would be zero problem but people with a low iq will never get passed it.
>>97740587>Last session >Getting attacked pack fo wolves>figure out who the alpha is and say I want to use beast friend to let him know that his pack has no chance of surviving if they attack the party. >DM says I can use mind control to force him to leave. >Tell DM "nah I'll let the pack leader make his own choice but I just want him to know the consequences of attacking us." >Wolf pack decides to fuck off.Easy
