Here comes the video game control conversation. Again

>i-it's video games! it has nothing to do with an increasingly gynocentric culture that scorns men and at the same time expects them to uphold the responsibilities of their forefathers while attaining no benefit of doing so! it's not that we are ignoring the mental health and abuse of young men leading to an increase of isolated men who are seeking guidance and structure becoming radicalized into far right/far left activist groups!

neither side actually knows what the problem is. shit's fucked.

This, whats even worse is that people think there's two sides

Your line of reasoning makes sense in that "being straight white male is supposed to come with privilege but life is hard despite that and feel like I can't complain about my situation in any tasteful way so I'm going to rationalize my problems as being because of feminism and liberals". Mental health funding is mostly a democrat platform (more government spending) which is why republicans are quick to jump on video games. Trump even did that while putting out anti-video game propaganda last year.

dilate

i think it's also from transhumanism not being mainstream yet. a lot of people are confused by or afraid of death and become obsessed with death, without realizing that it doesn't have to hold as much power over us as they think.

We've been having this conversation since Columbine and every random black man who blamed their car theft on Rockstar. Nobody gives a shit unless they start passing legislation.

It's true.

VIDEO GAAAAAAAMES!!!

So how is the rhetoric of lawmakers less significant than twitter bitching?

>video games don't make people violent
>but sexy stuff in video games does make them misogynistic

which is it

Republicans are full of shit and they know it. They're just trying to deflect the conversation toward games as quickly as possible because muh guns.

I thought they were trying to deflect because of the I hate spics manifesto.

it's actually microtransactions causing the problems

On one hand a man shot up a kindergarten and nothing in society changed, on the other hand that means video games are safe at least.

The only good Republican is a dead Republican.

>can't complain about my situation in any tasteful way
Nobody cares about being tasteful, you can't complain at all because you're literally mocked for doing so. Still waiting on that privilege check to the come in the mail.

Anita said the exact opposite. She actually said that playing video games won't turn you into a raging misogynist.

I don't know, do some introspection about what threads you enter.

Talking about video games and violence for the 100th time is nice and all but maybe we should start spending a little more on mental health programs. Just a thought.

I wonder if Egoraptor will edit Awesome Center just like he censored 'nigga' from Metal Gear Awesome.

>Borderline low IQ American politicians an fat middle age eating a murica size tray of oreos stating it was video games.
>Allowing anyone to access OTC firearms that are designed to kill people
>Murica cunts ITT blames women and SJW

don't reason with /pol/. They trigger easily

>be American
>play videogames
>shoots people
>gets shot

He probably will once his fat alien wife tells him to do it

>you can't complain at all because you're literally mocked for doing so.
... because it's distasteful.

>Still waiting on that privilege check to the come in the mail.
It's more about how even if a white person had nothing and was homeless, he'd more likely be viewed as just being down on his luck while a black man in the same situation would be viewed as a useless crackhead. It's not about money.

You can get banned for just replying to an off topic thread, so good job dumb ass.

Video games are inherently violent and cause normal people to turn into psychopaths. The only ones that deny this fact are retarded leftards.

It was worse than that. He shot a Walmart

>It's more about how even if a white person had nothing and was homeless, he'd more likely be viewed as just being down on his luck while a black man in the same situation would be viewed as a useless crackhead. It's not about money.
Idk bro you sound like the racist one. I see a homless dude here and no matter what I just assume they're ALL crackheads.

AND
YOU HAVE
TO POINT
IT ALL
OUT

>and cause normal people to turn into psychopaths.
Bait.

Anita is the authority now? Who said anything about Anita? The zeitgeist is that sex positive stuff in media makes people into misogynists.

That's not what she said. She said it won't turn you into a direct copy of a misogynistic character, but that it could still influence you and cause you to be a misogynist in some ways.

Imagine if someone hired scientists to figure out reasons for mass shooters and they built predictive models of what activities lead to shootings?
Then you'd have quotes like "playing video games correlates with being a mass shooter at 0.0"

Why do white guys always get radicalized by video games?

Because it turns out an anonymous board is full of half-baked opinions and bad faith sentiments that fill people with memethoughts that just feel right and no effort is put into checking if it's even correct.

>violent thing is violent
>person imitates violent thing
>NOOOOOOOOOOO dont blame my violent bing bing wahoo
>BAN GUNS
>BAN WHITE PEOPLE
>BUT DONT TOUCH MY VIOLENT TOYS
Lefties are so obnoxious

I don't think so. This sounds highly subjective to who you ask.

I'm white-passing and I don't think I would get any pity for my life being fucked up the way it was by my abusive guardians. Funny thing is I'm actually a recognized member of a native american tribe too.

>Nobody cares about being tasteful, you can't complain at all because you're literally mocked for doing so.
Be a man FFS

The irony here is that guns are literally violent toys.

>republicans
LMAO FAKE NEWS. Leftists are the ones against video games, not right wing. BASED Trump wouldn't allow a game ban.

Not all video games are about violence

>BAN GUNS

Literally no leftist wants this. Liberals do, but scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds.

>BAN WHITE PEOPLE

White people are fine. White nationalists are not.

Literally opposite of what is happening in real life right now but I understand your confusion seeing as you get your info from echochambers. Should I repost the link that OP posted?

Doesn't matter. It's the leftists who ruin games more.
MAGA

>moot

who?

>"We have to look at the Internet because a lot of bad things are happening to young kids and young minds, and their minds are being formed. And we have to do something about maybe what they're seeing and how they're seeing it. And also video games. I'm hearing more and more people say the level of violence on video games is really shaping young people's thoughts. And then you go the further step, and that's the movies. You see these movies, they're so violent. And yet a kid is able to see the movie if sex isn't involved, but killing is involved, and maybe they have to put a rating system for that.
>"And, you know, you get into a whole very complicated, very big deal. But the fact is that you are having movies come out that are so violent, with the killing and everything else, that maybe that's another thing we're going to have to discuss. And a lot of people are saying it, you have these movies today where you can go and have a child see the movie, and yet it's so violent and so disgusting. So we may have to talk about that also."
>And here's what he said six days later, on February 28, drawing in his own personal experiences with his 11-year-old son, Barron, after comments from Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tennessee.
>"The video games, the movies, the Internet stuff is so violent. It's so incredible. I see it. I get to see things that you wouldn't be — you'd be amazed at. I have a young — very young son, who — I look at some of the things he's watching, and I say, how is that possible? And this is what kids are watching. And I think you maybe have to take a look at it. You know, you rate movies for different things. Maybe you have to also rate them for terror, for what they're doing and what they're all about.
>"It's hard to believe that, at least for a percentage — and maybe it's a small percentage of children — this doesn't have a negative impact on their thought process. But these things are really violent."

You fuckin sure about that, moron?

Honestly, as a gun owner, why can't we just fucking ban guns? It's not worth it anymore. I'm sick of hearing this shit every fucking week when some virgin white boy buys an assault rifle and kills dozens of people in minutes. I'll give them up for good, it's not worth it any more. If you've ever been to /pol/ you can plainly see they're insane. It's no wonder they're ready to kill for the retarded bullshit they spew. No one questions them, no one shuts them down. At least banning guns would stop the killing. We had our chance and it's obvious we can't handle the responsibility of owning firearms. Look at literally every other nation, they don't have this problem.

Fuck off MAGAtard.

Even if that's true; good for you. Many on /pol/ would tell you that "racism" is the natural state of things. Many on the left will tell you that they have prejudices and biases too, it's part of being human. With that in mind, there are some races that are seen more dependable than others, more trustworthy and honest. Even if you just think it's race realism and your hedging your bets on crime stats, there's a clear disadvantage to being certain races.

All I'm saying is that it was always bullshit that half-elves got +2 the CHA because "muh empathetic to two peoples".

yet the faggot made /pol/ anyway and then fled the site shortly after when he couldn't control it anymore.. instead of you know DELETING it

Every massive gun control measure taken since reagan has happened under republican presidents

Who said I voted for trump?

This was proven fake many times over. Liberals are the ones who want to ban games.

Did you?

>Leftists ruin video games
>Rightists murder innocent people

I wonder which is worse.

that's not the original founder wtf. 2013??? eightchan has been around since before 2008 wtf

You can't possibly be this dense
