To really think and believe that, is to on the same planet as men who are like, "I called him [f slur] but not in a gay way, I don't hate gay people, it's just what you say". You have to be half-believing absolute nonsense to justify all kinds of obviously bad things throughout in your everyday life. Just speedrunning doublethink all day long.

Like, in order to think that, you already have to be so far out of touch with society that you might as well be on Mars.

You know, the issue isn't really with people who play video games (nearly anyone under 65) or even with people who self-identify as gamers (though that's pushing it).

It's with the men who thought/still think "ethics in video game journalism" is a salient issue that lots of normal people care about.

That normal people care so much about ethics in video game journalism that they could use it as a rallying cry for wild-ass claims that would otherwise scare most of the public away.

You'd think gamers would be pleasant, happy people who enjoy fun and whimsy

I'm calling out that Buffalo buffalo buffalo bullshit. Who the hell uses "buffalo" as a verb?

Listen. We all have bad ideas, but making your link text almost the same color as your pink background is among the worst.

Girls boys nonbinary people all cute

If you sit at the nexus of "graphic design nerd" and "hella gay", check out http://hottype.club/ a website about fonts used in vintage gay porn

@melissasage Theory: you start to see enemies like Hammer brothers deeper in the levels because they've heard of you and are practicing self-defense

@melissasage Aren't most Mario "enemies" just animals wandering around back and forth? There are a rare few who actively attack him.
