Edit - Lotta video game apologists in this thread. Look past your capitalist dependency on causing violence to other people/animals, and recognize what you're doing. Stop Video Games.

Video Games are a media (superstructure) that reflect the economic base we live in. It is part of the cultural hegemony we live under, that the state uses to justify itself and capitalism.

Violence is an inherent part of this ideological propaganda apparatus (along with patriarchy, racism, sexism, transphobia, homophobia, anti-communism, capitalist normalization etc.)

All media influences the people that receive it. It is "pure liberalism" to believe it does not. If you're a Marxist, you must stand against video games under capitalism.

    if we can light up a hexbear, we can light up an internet, if we can light up an internet, we can light up the world.

    tweet at cpusa to get them to add "Ban Video Games" to their platform. I guarantee it'll get them elected.
