Kinda wish.

2019-08-07 04:44:17 UTC  

Something that's been really bothering me about this whole backlash to the violent video games thing...

2019-08-07 04:44:30 UTC  

Go on...

2019-08-07 04:44:33 UTC  

Can someone please tell me how saying that violent video games cause violent people is any more stupid than activists demanding the reduction in the sexualization of female characters in video games because it promotes the objectification of women?

2019-08-07 04:44:42 UTC  

theyre both stupid

2019-08-07 04:44:48 UTC  

Both are asserting that certain types of content cause certain types of behaviors. Why are we comfortable with one type of censorship but not the other?

2019-08-07 04:44:58 UTC  

it's just that one is ideologically supported by one group, and the other by another

2019-08-07 04:45:00 UTC  

Where have all these fucking people been?

2019-08-07 04:45:12 UTC  

all the sudden NOW they care about censorship in gaming

2019-08-07 04:45:19 UTC  

Think back when Columbine happens

2019-08-07 04:45:45 UTC  

Because violence is external to the offender where as identification is internal to the offender

2019-08-07 04:45:54 UTC  

Same evil different day.

2019-08-07 04:46:05 UTC  

Meanwhile the Left convinces everyone that tits in games are bad. no one cares. Say the violence in them causes people to be violent and everyone throws a fit

2019-08-07 04:46:24 UTC  

be consistent with your outrage!

2019-08-07 04:47:16 UTC  

women dressing scantily is bad because 'Muh Objectificashun"

2019-08-07 04:47:34 UTC  

To be fair the right hated on vg in the 90s

2019-08-07 04:47:42 UTC  

I get that

2019-08-07 04:47:55 UTC  

I'm not letting the overly religious Right off the hook

2019-08-07 04:47:58 UTC  

fuck them

2019-08-07 04:48:08 UTC  

Lol if boobs are bad In games why do we have Strip joints?

2019-08-07 04:48:09 UTC  

but people ONLY seem to care when they do something

2019-08-07 04:48:13 UTC  

Either way. You as an individual are responsible for everything action you take

2019-08-07 04:48:46 UTC  

I get that, but that's not what I'm saying

2019-08-07 04:48:54 UTC  

is anyone else seeing the selective outrage

2019-08-07 04:49:33 UTC  

It’s a power move of symbolism

2019-08-07 04:50:08 UTC  

MK11 comes out and they've covered up all the women. When people complained everyone was like "Oh no, you don't get boobies. So sad, incel."

2019-08-07 04:50:33 UTC  

???

2019-08-07 04:50:41 UTC  

then, when they even slightly suggest reducing the violence in video games, suddenly everyone cares.

2019-08-07 04:50:47 UTC  

tbh MK has been all over the place

2019-08-07 04:51:04 UTC  

What is the MK?

2019-08-07 04:51:05 UTC  

compare MK 10 to 11

2019-08-07 04:51:05 UTC  

MK has been a clusterfuck for a long time

2019-08-07 04:51:06 UTC  

it's mostly just dumb that they chose to grandstand over it

2019-08-07 04:51:09 UTC  

Mortal Kombat

2019-08-07 04:51:13 UTC  

compare old MK to MK 9, 10

2019-08-07 04:51:31 UTC  

Now Sonya is a middle aged ugly ass lesbian

2019-08-07 04:51:41 UTC  

and we're just supposed to be okay with it because "progress"

2019-08-07 04:51:52 UTC  

I mean

2019-08-07 04:51:56 UTC  

attractiveness was never their strong suit anyway. Remember the manface era?

2019-08-07 04:52:03 UTC  

Kitana and Mileena were literally made to be fapbait

2019-08-07 04:52:13 UTC  

at least in art outside of the game
