Is anyone aware of RPG development forums that have a particularly "progressive" bend to them? As in, Barak Obama-progressive?

So what, you hate me. Don't you want to see me gone?
Look at it this way: if I leave, someone else with SCARILY similar ideas will take my place. It's inevitable. The best you can do is to direct us to someplace just for us, far from your hair. Then you can tell all the other progressives/liberals on this forum to go there, and leave you alone to whatever. It's a win-win situation for everyone.

Obama... RPG... development... what?
I'm not sure I understand your question. Are you asking if anyone knows of a forum for RPG developers who vote for left-wing parties? (Not that I know of any offhand...)

Lol.
RPG developers usually don't tend to hang up on politics.

Have you considered the fact that obama has nothing to do with RPG development and is only relevant to people in the united states?

He hasn't considered anything. He's an idiot.
Also, this probably *is* a left wing RPG dev forum, for the most part.

The only rpg development forums I know of are rpgdx and rpgdev.
If you need a different forum for some reason, the only thing I think you could do is start your own. However, I don't know if there's any point. Neither rpgdx nor rpgdev have much traffic, so a 3rd site probably wouldn't have much either.

This forum, left wing-?
The founders of RPGDX were (obviously) fiscal conservatives! Mandrake's as collectivist as they come, and so are his contemporaries.
I'm sure that there must be a bastion of progressive game development out there somewhere, even if it's only run by progressives and not a completely progressive population.
There are strong analogues between politics and philosophy.
Given that this forum is run by Bjorn, who by his nature seeks to find common ground/ideological consensus, it is unusual for an environment such as this to be as hostile to progressivism as it is. I do think more could be done to promote a politically and ideologically tolerant atmosphere here.

Real Game Developers are not interested in such crap.
