I wouldn't consider myself a SJW or far-left leaning person, but this post just seems to be a bit.... well, bad taste. I understand that it's RP, so this doesn't necessarily reflect Nagal, but his last post in my "Winter is Coming" thread just seemed in bad taste to me. Here is the link, and I'll also give a transcript in case he deletes it.

While the Federal Government of the German Reich did pat itself on the back for a job-well done in preparing for the storm, there was still far more chaos than what the Kaiser would've preferred. In northern Germany, anyone who was caught outside in the below-zero conditions further north would be subject to harsh conditions, to the point of many people being hospitalized for acute symptoms of frostbite.
In the city of Kiel, winter warnings were all in effect as parts of the city completely shut down, as brittle power cables snapped under extra weight thanks to the snow. Snowplow crews in major metropolitan areas worked day and night to ensure clear roads, and continually salted areas where ice, black ice in particular, would crop up. In the first few weeks, schooling was done via homeschooling courses sent to parents by the schools' online websites. The train systems in northern Germany, at a dead stop, were to hold out as long as they could until help arrived in the form of Federal police. While several hundred people had to be hospitalized for hypothermia, the result was generally the same throughout: police taking a calm and professional approach to the dire and panicked situations and getting the people to safe havens.
While temperatures continued to get colder, the Royal Household consoled in the people to take whoever they could off the streets and into warm homes, to provide comfort in tough times, and to remember to be decent human beings in their attempts to survive. While some were clearly hard of hearing, or didn't care either way, many acts of kindness were seen by any observing the events in Germany, including one in particular that went viral in a Bavarian slum near Ingolstadt where a group of blatantly racist neo-fascists put aside their differences politically and racially to help an Germanic-African gentleman — despite some racial slurs being thrown — get some food for the winter ahead. When questioned, one member of the group stated, "Even if they are invaders and niggers, no one deserves to die in this cold...not like this. I have a brother who lives in Norway who might die because of the cold there. I-I just try to think about like that...that we could start getting temperatures like that. That scares me more than the niggers."
However, most Germans were not just content to be concerned for themselves, but for the rest of Europe as well, particularly Scandinavia, which was now seeing record-breaking freezing temperatures for its time. Many petitioned to the Reichstag to send assistance in some way, shape, or form to their brothers up north, but to no avail. Despite the German government's attempts at contacting any of the countries of Scandinavia, they were only met with silence. They could only hope and pray that Norway would not be ruined, nor Sweden or Finland, and start asking for other members of the international community, openly and vocally, to send help if they could...to get people out of the Hell that had frozen over...
"We cannot leave them behind," was what the Kaiser & Reich Chancellor only were able to comment on the matter.
