PleaseClap 08/30/19 12:24:37 AM #1:	So I know somebody that claims to be a Gamer even though they aren't one. They keep talking about how much they like video games and whatnot, but they never ever actually play games. They're also always mentioning how much they fight for Gamer rights but I've never actually seen them stand up for Gamers in public Frankly, I think that they're a closeted Gamerphobe. Should I confront them about their bigotry? What should I say --- she/her https://imgur.com/AmWcJjM <cite>PleaseClap posted [p:926724813] in What do yo...

Seeing as how Gamers are the most oppressed class in history, it matters a lot to see someone co-opting their cause for their own selfish desires --- she/her https://imgur.com/AmWcJjM <cite>PleaseClap posted [p:926724857] in What do yo...
