No joke.

I've gotten to the point where I just don't really play anything anymore because of it.

You go 'boy I'd like to see what new games are coming soon' and you immediately land in a cesspool of people throwing a fit that there's a black guy, or a trans girl, or a white chick that doesn't make their little peepee hard, as well as any other awful sexist, racist, ableist swill you can possibly imagine all over every inch of anything that remotely looks like gaming media or discussion forums.

I just kind of have quit looking, and just playing old games for the 2nd or 3rd time, despite the fact I would happily have bought anything that seems remotely fun a couple of years ago because I don't want to subject myself to those morons, end up playing games with them, or like, having anyone confuse me as being one of them as you said.

Okay, but do so-called "gamers" actually care about video games? Because most of the time, I don't see them talking about actual video games that they enjoy.
