women and jews

(((they))) want to kill off straight white christian males

gays have nothing to do with politics. politics is about taxes and shit

because valve and microsoft westernized the industry. notice how gaming wasn't pozzed when japanese consoles/arcades almost single-handedly dominated the medium.

Because we live in a total state.
>There is nothing historically unusual about all this. We are just living in a total state. Nor is this new—it has been true our whole lives. It is just getting harder to hide.
>In a total state, everyone and everything is infused with power. Everyone matters. Everything is important. Everyone has to care. Everyone wants to change the world. Everyone must be engaged. Everyone is pushing power forward, or pushing back against it. Everyone is either a collaborator or a dissident. Power has turned the whole country into a political cult.
>Anyone who reads Vaclav Havel's Power of the Powerless will be struck by Havel's portrait of Czechoslovakia forty years ago—with its voluntary window-slogans; its endless parade of crusades; its inexorable machinery of human cancellation.

Like Umberto Eco once said:
>Everybody is educated to become a hero.

Underrated post

The funny thing is that Umberto Eco was talking about fascism, in fact. Libtards really like to project.

>FBI: winners don't do drugs
>not pozzed

I blame Trump.
Not because of him per say but because that era along with the progression of social media jerked the pseud garbage to irredeemable levels. We will never ever get back to just video games for a long while

Rich **** started funding this (called new left, as opposed to the more marxist oriented old left) during the 60's in order to break up worker solidarity and engage in mass scale experiments in enlightened social engineering

>NOOOOO A RAINBOW, MY ANUS IS BLEEDING BECAUSE OF THAT!

That was just splash damage from the war on drugs, videogames weren't significant enough to be considered as a means for population control.

This

This but unironically

>start the culture war
>blame the reaction

"People" started taking notice once it was revealed how much money the industry was making. Lefties actively take over every industry with any amount of cultural influence.

Also these industries are all based out of the west coast, which is pure aids and where everything terrible comes from.

Remember Occupy Wall Street?
The SJW is sort of shield against any reasonable leftism.

dont play western trash

Everything within the Party, nothing outside the Party.

They are desperate for money from woman and fags, it's pure economics. So, they have to pander to them and force us to accept these garbages they pull.

games then:
>good health advice
games now:
>tranny and marxist propaganda
wow, totally the same thing!

Take the Islam pill, highbirthrates and complete total destruction of all foreign tribes.

When gaming hit mainstream, political agitators realized they could tap in to this new medium which was largely comprised of a younger generation in its formative years to push an agenda. All sorts of money was sank into video games and tech at that point to politicize things on a group most vulnerable because it's an exceedingly effective tactic and there was zero pushback expected -- parents never really monitor what their kids are playing or doing, so the propaganda would largely go unnoticed.

I think Zig Forums is a wrench in the plans of those who have these agendas, and I don't even think Zig Forums as a whole even disagrees with the shit they push (Though I certainly do), it's just that their agendas are so heavy handed that they're actually ruining video games. The political message has taken front and center in a game before the actual game, and the quality of video games has suffered because of it.

Politics are the sole reason anyone even talks about gayshit because they sure as hell wouldn't otherwise.

This. Also the Anti-War left. Remember that in the early 00s? Now the woke guys just want to be neocons to help poor Kurds.

Kids of the rich people being retarded.

In 2011, Occupy Wall Street happened and people began to rise up against the banks and corporations for hoarding all the wealth post-2008 recession. That's when Idpol began and successfully subverted all the energy against the banks into a full-blown culture war

You know i had an itch to play magic other day after 2 years
Now thanks to this pic its gone
Thanks user

fpbp

Didn't they send a person who was called ketchup on the meeting?

Unironically this.

>America
>what went wrong?
You answered your own question

occupy, like all leftist "protest movements," was always a victory lap for the establishment. just compare the glowing media coverage it received compared to the smear campaign against the tea party movement.
