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

Never been a Gamer, but I did used to play too many video games. Carpal tunnel told me to fuck off and find a new hobby though

You would not have this attitude if you had played Persona 3

Sorry I am physically incapable of engaging with most of the real world because none of them will protect me from the plague and my own precautions are a thin plank against a tidal wave of plague rats so a video game and books are pretty much all I got to keep me sane in this compulsory asylum you all have me locked in. There would be no greater joy on this good green earth for me to touch grass as you all love to say but every other fucker on that grass will kill me by simply breathing on me and none of them seem to give a shit no matter how nice or mean I am about it, so back to Etheirys I go…

quick edit to apologize to OP because I know this is a joke post but there are some very heavy-handed, not-very-jokey “video games suck and you suck too” responses floating around here that I can’t abide. Video games do suck, sure wish I could go volunteer at my Communist Org For Building Communism like you and all your badass friends, except they (and probably you too bitch) are all carrying airborne death and won’t do anything about it. Fuck you.

I hate these kinds of jokey ass posts because I can never fucking get if they're serious or not, coupled with the same kinds of "you suck for liking things" attitudes, it's really alienating.

I feel like a martyr getting banned from c/videgames and starting this discourse.

boowomp Bold of you to assume I have time for gaming. Though I suppose this past weekend was a rare exception.

I mostly play hexbear.net, I really enjoy the hot take > upvote game loop

The best part is I can have my treat while dunking on the treat lovers

If Stalin were alive today, he would be a top eSports player and streamer. It's literally impossible to understand Marx' theory of value if you have less than 350 hours in League of Legends. You are a fake leftist. You should log out until you read some theory (4 hour youtube essays about how women ruined videogames) and do praxis (playing Fortnite) theory-gary
