Trump is a felon, so I am not sure “lawful” is the best fit.
The lawful/chaotic axis represents a person’s willingness to follow an external set of rules against their own instincts or opinions. Having a pocket judge or a pocket president to legitimize one’s actions does not make that person lawful.
Trump isn’t a felon… He’s a multi-felon.
Also a convicted rapist.
People who multi class are the worst.
true. that’s why i play pathfinder
Unless you are based on Warlock, combat is boring as a higher level 'Lock. (imo, one campaign, around level 7)
In the interest of accuracy, none of Trump’s 34 convictions were for rape.
He was found to be a rapist as a statement of fact in a civil lawsuit, but that’s not a conviction.
So while he is a convicted felon 34 times over, and a rapist, he’s not a convicted rapist.
Because calling him a proven-in-court-but-technically-not-convicted-because-it-was-a-civil-trial rapist takes too long.
Musk is definitely not lawful either. Must is pure chaotic evil
He’s definitely chaotic evil.
He’s neutral evil at best
Lots of devils in the Nine Hells fucked up
A couple of them might be chaotic.
Thats a weird way of all spelling all of them but sure
This only counts because they use their money to make their lives “lawful” through legislation and capture of the courts, minimizing their very real crimes against humanity.
Okay perhaps Buffett, Gates, and Cook haven’t gone as far as actual crimes against humanity but the rest have, and Buffett, Gates, and Cook are still unlawful but used their money to twist the laws in their favor.
By definition you can not get this rich without stealing the value of peoples labour - at scale.
Aka evil as shit.
In D&D lawful alignments apply more towards a doctrine the character follows, not necessarily the actual law.
You don’t understand Lawful Evil.
In the Nine Hells, bending and breaking rules to your whim is the norm. It’s whether you get caught, and piss off someone powerful, that matters.
breaking rules means they’re not lawful. that’s why demons are generaly described as chaotic
if you do something unlawful, it means you’re not lawful, it doesn’t matter if you’re caught or not
No, that’s bullshit. You haven’t read the source material. I’ve got it sitting in my living room. Devil’s break rules all the time, they’re EVIL. Lawful + Evil = using the law to suit you. Not “being a villain who’s magically constrained by a writers ethics”.
I’ve literally been DMing since Planescape was released
lawful
As in can dictate law
i feel like it should be more chaotic evil
Ah but they’re the ones that make the laws.
Thats… Thats not how that alignment chart works at all :p. Lawful means they just follow the teachings of something, not that they dictate it.
Chaotic is all for your own personal gainSo, Demon Lords are lawful then?
Trump is Chaotic Evil.
Bill does some genuinely good stuff. I’m sure he does some bad stuff too though.
there’s a book about that, “no such thing as a free gift: the gates foundation and the price of philanthropy”
Now he’s got his he is. In the 80-00 he was as nasty a fucker as all the rest are now.
That doesn’t surprise me.
It’s actually pretty interesting some of the effects his philanthropic efforts have had.
I think the bottom line is that billionaires shouldn’t exist, all said and done.
billionaires shouldn’t exist, all said and done.
Absolutely agreed.
Dude was actually best friends with Jeffery Epstein. Like he wanted to hang out with him casually in New York.
Lawful?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alignment_(Dungeons_%26_Dragons) and similar systems
Trump chances his mind on policies constantly. He’s governing through chaos. So again Lawful?
Fun fact none of them are lawful
They paid congress a lot of money to say that they actually are lawfull
I see you wisely chose to leave Taylor Swift off of your chart.
No one wants the Swifties on their asses. :D
evil (but appearing largely lawful)
You got me, I immediately scanned the 4 corners for “good” and then sat confused wondering how I misread it.
I remember a critique of DnD alignments for using ‘neutral’ instead of ‘selfish’ and this grid really proves that argument I think.
Funny to live in times when Villains are in power. Probably in 2060s they will compare them with Hitler.
trump is definitely chaotic evil, musk at the very least neutrail evil and many of the others as well
