theres something funny to me about a lot of fandom demanding this cr campaign be fully pro-exandrian gods, and using full blooded paladins as examples of how to enact it, ignoring deanna's humble take on faith. meanwhile. matt is smacking yall with how issylra’s rich religious institution they want to see take a righteous lawful good spotlight is a deeply fucked genuinely imperialist system
