      It's so hard not to feel like the image of punching a wizard in the face is symbolic of this idea of ordinary people using the kinds of power we can understand, however ugly and nasty and uncouth, against the powers we can't -- finance and politics and tech and other spellcraft

      It's why @sadydoyle wrote about how even though the Hulk is literally a giant cliche about toxic masculinity, "I'm always angry" and "Puny god" can hit as such powerful and resonant lines from a feminist POV

      Picking up a goddamn baseball bat and smashing your super special magic computer with the special algorithm in it that tells all of us what to do into little pieces Reminding us all that, in the end, it's just a goddamn plastic box

      The smug billionaire prick realizing that all the money that exists as 1s and 0s in a faraway computer and all the complex knowledge of law and finance he's spent a lifetime accumulating means jack shit when all the little people start physically rushing the door to his mansion

      @RuffleJax talked about how the Bay Area techbro rationalist community is in love with Mage: the Ascension and their private Discord server is named "Doissetep" after the Chantry of the Order of Hermes And wow that analogy just makes me appreciate Hunter: the Reckoning so much

      I loved Mage but yeah, this is definitely a problem. And it's not hard at all to see why these assholes love it since that is what appealed to teenage me too: the idea you are a special extra smart person who sees reality clearly while everyone else is asleep.

      Hunter: the Reckoning was a lot of different things that didn't fit that well together necessarily, and a lot of its defenders talk about how the Zeal Creeds and the "hobo with a shotgun" signature characters didn't give a full picture of it But I liked that stuff

      As a fan of the Zeal Creeds and what they're about, I'll say -- Of course they're hypocrites and Hunters were just as "supernatural" as any other White Wolf gameline and they had their own kind of "magic" But it is in fact the kind of "magic" that matters

      Hunters aren't special because they're smart, because of their Arete or Genius, or because they're spiritual and wise (Gnosis), or because of their literal bloodline (Generation) The idea of H:tR Hunters, the Imbued, is you became special because someone hurt you

          At least for the hobo with a shotgun kind of Hunters, the Avenger Creed and the Martyr Creed and the Wayward Creed Your power level, your Zeal, is a measure of how much you've been hurt, your mana, your Conviction, is how much you're willing to do something about it

          The hobo with a shotgun who isn't smart, who isn't wise, who isn't special in any way Other than that they're been hurt and they want to hurt someone back, and sometimes that sheer anger, sheer rage, unwillingness to let shit stand, breaks the rules and busts the machine

          Does that make Changeling: the Lost more of a successor to HtR than Vigil?
