Yeah, why is this idiotic narrative suddenly rearing its head again? Did they finally realize they can't keep blaming mental illness if they're not going to do anything about that either and now they're desperate for another scapegoat?

A lot of the rwers on the internet are in too deep now so even if they vociferously rejected this idea before they will now agree with it to support Trump.

Okay maybe Hilary's opinion on videogames has changed. It was the Hot Coffee incident where she spoke out against games. That was over a decade ago.

I don't think the sentiment is entirely wrong, it's just not quite as simple as pointing your finger and saying this is the definitive cause. Our entertainment media both influences and is influenced by our culture. It is a reflection of who we are. Our violent culture is responsible for our violent shows, movies, games, etc. and at the same time all of those things perpetuate the culture itself. Theres no easy solution to this problem, as it has been a gradual slide lasting decades. I also think it was more or less inevitable for our country to reach this point.

Pretty sure the Vegas shooter didn't play video games.

And haven't seen a single thing about the FL shooter or the TX shooter playing video games.

Making sure people are aware of other politicians opinions on it. Hilldog got hella crap for going after games from the Reddit/Chan crowd. I would actually find it interesting how people react if he actually goes after it... its like that gif of the guy sweating before pushing the button lol

Lmao its literaly Hillarys bill from the senate. This will be a fun news cycle.

Will they

1. Claim this is completely different, even though its the same
2. Ignore Hillarys stuff and just say Yes our Christian society is being corrupted. Fix it!
3. Say this is dumb but still support him cuz this isnt a big deal.
4. Turn

My guess is a mix of 1 and 3

He isn't really wrong.

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2352250X17300660

It makes people slightly more aggressive in the short-term, so unless the shooter just impulsively decided to go shoot up the school after playing a violent video game then it really has no relevance.

If you guys want some "spin" on this, he's not wrong, somewhere in that incomprehensible babble.

The existing ratings systems are pretty terrible, and only really assign a flat "appropriate age" to whatever, without giving much indication of why, give or take "DSLV" or the fine print.

Content descriptors need to be more relevant and prominent.
Doing so will provide responsible parents a better idea of what their children may be exposed to, while simultaneously providing a checklist for squeakers with crappy parents.
