Someone asks an innocent question about Dungeons & Dragons and it turns into a discussion about nazism with a serious dose of cultural apathy. If the colors and site layout weren't different I'd expect this to be on 4chan's /tg board after some posters clearly from /pol derailed the thread (which sadly happens way too often <.<). At this rate the mods will have to sticky their post on the matter.
@OP If you want to start DMing, I can from my own experience wholeheartely recommend the
Dragon of Ice Spire Peak Essential's Kit . It has a HUUUUUUGE amount of goodies if you ever want to try D&D in real life (an abridged but still quite bigtotally sufficent version of the Player's Handbook, enough dice for the DM AND a player (or more if they share)), lots of useful cards and tokens with e.g. all the status conditions, cards for initiative and premade NPC companions to beef up a party if you only have 1-2 players), as well as quite a detailed campaign in a seperate book for levels 1-5 (or 6) with helpful advice for new DMs. And a big map. AND AN ABSOLUTELY AWESOME, COMPLETE, ACTUAL DM SCREEN (slightly smaller than those that cost 10-25 bucks, but with all the same information on the inside). And you can easily get it for ~ 25 $ or € or less.
Even if you never end up playing in real life, there's also a code to get the digital version of the campaign and stuff for it (so you can play it online with others), and the DM screen,tokens, premade companion characters and simple but highly effective sidekick companion rules make it a great buy still.
(And if you don't have that much cash available and want to get started, getting all the books you need as "digital copies" is very easy too, (often you just need to type the name of the book into Google with PDF added to it, not joking) with almost all other rule content being available through a quick googling through e.g. Wikis, though the Player's Handbook and DM Guide are definitely great buys and quite big high quality books (not to mention often being available for ~$25)
