2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil
No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

Played adventure games and fighting games growing up. Never in my entire forty-something years have I even thrown a punch at anyone.
Japan LOVES video games, you don't see them being brought up for the reason they have sooo maaany murders. Oh wait...
(Now I play MMOs and I never cast a spell at anyone either, in case y'all wondering...)

The single biggest factor for American military hegemony in Grenada was Pac-Man.
Remember when Mortal Kombat came out and we all started ripping each other's heads off and pulling out still beating hearts? Those were the days.
it’s guns.
God. Are we back on this loop again?!! Incidentally what is the most selling game currently?
A game about a bug with a needle? Super violent.
I'm old enough to remember "Mortal Monday" with the release of the first Mortal Kombat on consoles and everyone was CONVINCED that it would result in kids ripping the spines and hearts out of peoples bodies.
Hell I remember when the original TMNT and Power Rangers was bad because it would encourage kids to do "ninja stuff" to the point where in the UK they changed "Ninja" to "Hero" and eventually Michaelangleo wasn't allowed to use nunchucks anymore because out of ALL the weapons the turtles had, THOSE were a no-no. Sword? Sai? that's fine...even the boe! but heaven forbid a child crafted their own nuncucks!

Hey fuck you....I know video games didn't cause shit...it seems like I ate that part of his dumbass brain.
This man is an absolute moron, him saying this is no different from the uneducated garbage he’s been spewing
Jfc, this again?
Well, if you take away video games we'll have to find entertainment somewhere
Wolfenstein was pretty good, ngl
What did they tell him about how his father and uncle died?
Probably the truth, just like they told him the truth about vaccines.

He outed himself as an ignorant fool.
Hey, that's an insult to ignorant fools
He's been doing that his entire life.
Yeah. When all y'all are talking about how we need government intervention and legislature to get you what you want?
THIS is why some of us are very wary of that and don't think "We are just idea people. Other people can make it a law" is at all a good idea.
If I don't pass that ant zone on silksong I'm going to shoot something.
