Several Days ago a Terrorist with possible ISIS Connections committed the Worst Massacre in US History. No one has tried to fake evidence to say he was a gamer. That's the good news. (If that did happen, I would be all over it, as usual). But that didn't stop moronic fake "Games Journalists" like the ones in TheVerge and other sources bash video games violence after a massacre happened that had zero, zilch connections to video games.
At the Recent E3, Developers offered there condolences to the victims of the massacre. And that led to a ton of idiots bashing E3 for the "portrayal" of video game violence after a massacre, like there is some unwritten rule that you must never show video game violence, after a massacre. Fuck that rule. They can show what they want. And they shouldn't feel like they have to offer their condolences. We've been through the shitstorm before. Actual SCIENTIFIC Evidence disproves the idea the video games cause "real life violence". So these people, these developers should not show any guilt for something they didn't do. But that's exactly what they did, and that attracted idiots like Full Mcintosh, Jonathan BlowMe and others to "comment" on the "link" between video game violence and the massacre...
Then sites controlled by idiots like these pitch in... Like the Verge... I quote:
"First-person shooters have been one of gaming’s most popular genres since their inception in the 1990s, and EA has promoted many shooters at previous E3 conferences. But moving forward with games that find the fun in gun violence, felt, at the theater, strange to say the least. It’s not just the uncomfortable collision of fantasy and reality — the dream world of violence in the auditorium, and the real world of violence outside it — it’s the uncanny monotony they share.
This is the first major press event at E3, a conference that has a reputation for celebrating graphic violence with an adolescent zeal. Throughout the week, we may see publishers of first-person shooters, and other violent games, respond to recent events. But what we really expect every year, like we saw at E3’s conference today, is a familiar, over-rehearsed routine that regurgitates the same ideas in slightly different configurations"
Fuck off Verge. Hope you go out of business....
Here is another idiot spewing nonsense, from the daily beast:
"But no top gaming figures have yet publicly acknowledged the elephant in the convention hall: The unsettling parallels between horrific displays of real world violence like that in Orlando, Columbine, Virginia Tech, Aurora, Sandy Hook, Isla Vista, Charleston, or San Bernardino and the fantasy violence that fuels their multi-billion dollar industry."
WHAT PARELLELS? There are NO parellels between these mass killings and the fantasy violence in the games mentioned.
Orlando = Terrorist attack
Columbine = Failed Terrorist attack by mentally ill bomb maker and his friend who wanted revenge for a police rape in 1998.
Virginia Tech = No Trustworthy connection to video games
Aurora = Shooter played Guitar Hero, that's it./
Sandy Hook = A lot of BS claims Lanza was influenced by games. But all of it is BS
Charlseton = Again, a TERRORIST attack
San Bernadino = Again another TERRORIST attack
Do you see a pattern? TERORRISM is the cause of many of these. NOT VIOLENT VIDEO GAMES. Fuck the Daily Beast, Fuck them.
But what is even worse is nonsense spread by "Digital Trends"....
www DOT digitaltrends.com/gaming/violent-games-orlando/
I quote:
"There is an important distinction to be drawn, however, between causation and normalization. Video games (like all forms of popular media) both reflect and inform cultural values, and it’s hard to argue against contemporary mainstream gaming’s loves of violence in general, and guns in particular. Daily bombardment with violent images in our media diet has a subtle, long-term effect of reducing the shock we feel when we encounter it. Even if we intellectually understand its horror, numbing the visceral and emotional reaction to violence makes it easier to write off as “just how the world is.”
This idiot is complaining about people "buying this junk" (where junk is violent games AGAIN), and claims that that is the problem and we need to stop this "Depravity". Like adults buying "Uber violent" games like Call of Duty, Mass Effect, Doom, Hexen, Jedi Knight and other "SUPER Violent Killing games" which the media keeps on scapegoating as the cause of Newtown is depravity now? None of those gamers are "uber violent". But the media keeps on quoting features from 1 or 2 super violent games like Postal 1-3 and GTA and keeps on saying "most games" are like this so you get idiots like this who think that they are....
"This is pornography with violence being the subject matter. Stop this type of violence. Young minds do not know how to assimilate this mayhem. It is being shown as popular, when it is not. This trash media thrives on the destruction of societal values. Please stop them NOW!"
Another idiot calling violent games "trash" AGAIN... Asking this "TRASH" to be stopped and (assumingly) their Creators as well because this person FAILS to even mention WHO should be stopped. Another brainwashed fucking idiot.
"It is called indoctrination to blunt the young so that they will be numb when they see death or are apart of it. It is going on in the radical jihad nations. If these video games are not stopped we are going to see more school and other place killings.Indoctrination is not free speech it is like stoking a fire and hoping it won't burn but it does."
Ok... So violent games are indoctrination now... Do they make gamers "DROP AND GIVE ME TWENTY FUCKING MAGGOT <insert racial slur here> FUCKNUT"... No. Do they sleep deprive people.. Not in normal circumstances... Do they wake you up at 4 am every day after being put to bed at 2 am. No... Do they take the players completely out of their normal life 100% of the time so all they can do is be indoctrinated. NO... Do they do ANYTHING REAL INDOCTRINATION like in Military training camps do.. NO. Because they can't.. Violent games can't train anyone.. That requires. 1) Abuse 2) Intimidation 3) Indocrination 4) Removal from normal life and complete
isolation from it. 5) Constant drills, sleep depravation and exhaustion. Games do NONE of this. Who ever is comparing Indoctrination to games has probably been brainwashed to do so and is another fucking brainwashed asshole.
"Violence in the media is what is desensitizing our culture. Hollywood and msm don't want to take any responsibility for what they market as entertainment - violence for violence sake- they line their pockets at the expense of our youth. They stand by abortion Dr.s as "choice" yet save the baby whales.... They assuage their guilt by "social activism" that suits their self aggrandizing persona"
Even though I proved at the beginning of this article the Industry doesn't sell to kids, this idiot goes on and claims violent games are "desensitizing our culture" to violence I assume, but fails to even what they are desensitizing the culture to, Blames hollywood, claims they are making money off of kids, blah, blah, blah, Fuck you! They claim Hollywood supports abortion, so therefore so must gamers and game companies now! Right? Right? Isn't this what this fucking shithole is implying. So now abortion is something gamers and game companies support... We're all a bunch of fucking toddler torturing baby killers!!!! OH NOES!!!! No proof whatsoever for such an allegation of pure bullshit is there? Nope. NOT ONE SHRED....
"Free speech is only free when it is harmless. You can not do something without consequences if you hurt someone. These type of things, video games, videos etc, that are promoting violence like this one should not be permitted. These things are giving bad ideas to others to be copy cats and the promotion is giving the wrong message like if it is OK to do those kind of things to others. GOD HELP US. WHY ARE PEOPLE SO WILLING TO DO OTHERS HARM, AND THEN PROMOTE IT AS HARMLESS TOO. SICK."
Another bullshit claim by an idiot... Saying free speech should not apply if something is called "non harmless" (probably by an idiot because only idiots call violent games harmful...) He then claims violent games cause "copy cat" murders and more BS.... What an idiot.. But he's nothing compared to the next moronic turd...
"We cannot afford any more legislation that takes away liberties. People need to step up and make these gamers stop the gore by protest and boycot. Maybe their backgrounds need to be checked to make sure they are not themselves terrorists."
Ok... So were school shooters (us gamers that is), child molesters, and worse... But this idiot dares to claim that "gamers" are "terrorists" now... One step away from blaming "Gamers" for the Bombings in boston no doubt... I quote: "Maybe their backgrounds need to be checked to make sure they are not themselves terrorists.". Does this idiot REALLY believe gamers are terrorists? Apparently so. So now we, game manufacturers and Terorrists (we are all of the above now) need to be "Boycotted". What a fucking moron. Anyone who DARES to equate "Gamers" to "Terrorists" is a fucking idiot... Nothing more to say... Just hope this doesn't spread to more morons who believe everything they hear like 99% of the dumbfuck population of this Country after a Terrorist attack done by NON GAMERS.
"There needs to be a better online system to monitor not only those who created this offensive video game, but also those monsters involved in child porn, drug distribution, etc. We need to prosecute those who are inhumane. "
Another moron doing the following A) Saying game manufacturers should be monitored like Child Porn creators. B) Implying Child porn is caused by violent gamers like that boykin moron I attacked earlier in the year... What an Idiot...
"These DAMAGED people who put this TRASH out for everyone to see are just as DAMAGED as these two terrorists. Three PD's who gets three public defenders,stop wasting taxpayers money and put him out of his misery...."
Whoops. Not two sentences later and someone else DARES to blame the Terrorist attacks in Boston on VIOLENT GAMES! What a fucking moron... And also calls for the execution of whoever "him" is... Could be anyone...
"Personally....I think the game makers should be added to the terrorist watch list."
Another moron calling game makers "terrorists" DARING to claim we should be put on a "Terrorist" watch list for WHAT? We didn't do the fucking bombing. 2 RELIGIOUS ZEALOTS from the middle east did. WTF? How are we "terrorists". These fucking turds can't give a straight answer can they?
"I take it they are making money on it .. a class action lawsuit by the victims would be good .. .hit them in the pocketbook .. make them defend their sick game."
Another moron daring to claim that Parents should file a class action lawsuit against the makers of this "sick game", not even stating what "sick game" it is!!!! It could be any fucking game this moron finds "sick".... Any!!! Any!!! Another Litigational loser..
Out of 144 stupid comments attacking violent games, only 3 tried to link them to the Boston Bombings, but about 17 more spread bullshit about Gamers, Gaming Companies, and Violent games.. Complete bullshit like this fuels censorship... It's disgusting.. But what is even more disgusting, is we have "Lowlifes" so paranoid that they must find a scapegoat for a TERRORIST ACT that has a Suspect in Custody with Charges filed against him, but that isn't good enough for them.. "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! It's the violent gamer child molesting Satanic Toaster Terrorists!!!" (Gamers).... It's our fault... More bullshit from assholes on the internet. People should NOT BE SCAPEGOATGING games AND Gamers for something they did not do. WE are NOT terrorists, we should NOT be put on "Terror" watch lists... It's all bullshit...
