Sometimes it is necessary for the long term good of humanity. Saying 'we can't use authoritarianism to beat authoritarians' is the logic that got the nazis in power in Germany. The nazis should have been crushed early on, but instead liberals just kept appeasing them.

    Democrats lost because they didn't embrace populist rhetoric.

    If they just ran someone like Bernie they could have won. People are tired of the status quo and they thought Trump would be a way out of it. All democrats run on is "we'll keep things the same".

    I used to be a person that believed very strongly in freedom of speech and that anything which was categorized as a philosophy or belief shouldn't be censored.

    However, after seeing how hard fascism has taken hold in America, I'm beginning to change my mind.

    I originally made this mostly as a GM aid for those playing RPGs like Cyberpunk Red. The idea is to have a normal map generator using dice (pretty common), but have the districts be decided by their major landmark. Having a unique landmark be the central focus will allow for each district to have it's own unique feel to it as well as acting as a possible important story beat.

    If connecting 1-2, 3-4, and 5-6 results in districts that are too big, feel free to just connect the same numbers, or shuffle the numbers around so they are less likely to touch each other.

    Also, feel free to substitute any of the landmark numbers with your own ideas, or expand the table yourself.

    Literally everyone agrees that more housing should be built and it shouldn't be too hard to do so (just don't sacrifice safety standards). However, simply building more housing isn't enough. A lot of the housing built nowadays are built for the rich while there aren't many small starter-homes being built. We need to do so much more than just building more homes, or else we risk the rich just buying them all up again.
