    a g*mer i know just posted about this with vitriol, and it really tickles me bc i met him on a site where the dominant viewpoint was "games are art actually, and they should be treated that way!" (don't bully me, this was like 15+ years ago now)

        lmao p much, i hit him with the "yeah it's crazy that gamers flooded the earth with their collective shit over the mildest possible libfem critique after begging for games to be treated seriously for years" and he appreciated it about as much as a swift kick in the balls

          "You have access to lifetimes of media but no literacy or curiosity to think about it" is a monkey's paw ass situation.
