I see we’ve teleported back into the 1990s during the violent video games scare among parents. Gotta make excuses instead of, you know, actually facing the real problems.

So a typical Politician’s job!

Some of the more conspiratorial political stuff out there is basically Satanic Panic 2.0.

Blizzard,

A bribe from Ubisoft or are there some elections voming up in France?

Guntrigger,

Probably just got a friendly reminder that there are some big and long standing games companies in France. He is a boomer businessman after all.

jmcs,

He’s actually late Gen X, though he has a certain… fondness for boomers.

Never in my life has gaming ever thronged me into rioting. I’d rather play games instead

Yea, I tried League of Legends, but it wasn’t my thing so I don’t play Riot games.

Police officer shoot a dark skinned kid point blank, at the corner of Place Nelson Mandela no less, people revolt in protest:
“These damn gamers”

Checks out.

I swear if this had been a movie, people would complain about the plot.

A list of horrible, no-good things which video games definitely cause:

  • Near-sightedness
  • Satanism
  • Obesity
  • Communism
  • Tardiness
  • The gays
  • Gun violence
  • Hand/eye coordination
  • And now… drumroll Rioting!

If the people in power say it is so, then it must be true.
