I’ve always understood this site to be anti-gamer but for some reason I’ve always chosen to blind myself to the fact that many of you are just selfdepricating gamers.

You’re not really invested in the cause.

I feel like I’m in an Alcoholics support group and I’m the only one not drinking while you guys just hate on yourselves.

I feel like a clown, feeling supported by TRAITORS.

I stand alone with a double barrel shotgun surrounded by people double handing gamecube controllers what the FUCK

Gaming is one of thr few places people can attempt to taste a world without capitlaism. Like, everytime capitlaism touching gaming it gets worse. I am a shitty enough white guy that seeing capitlaism destroy NPCs primed me for radiclaization as a youth. Like I didn't yet know a better world was possible but I was tasked with creating a better world for the pixels in my care and I got to see first hand how liberalism was a failing tech tree.
