If you game, and you’re a white heterosexual, you are funding your own demise. Only money made this possible. Only money will correct the issue. Just stop.
Playing WOW is as representative of "gaming" as consuming shit sandwiches is of eating. Your mistake is to confuse the corruption of a thing for the thing itself.
Just keep doing nothing about the source of the problems, and keep giving them as many chances to succeed as they need. I'm sure that will work out just fine.
I wasn’t suggesting you give them more, just the opposite. This issue is systemic. Spending your money elsewhere is the only way to choke them out. Burn the fallow field, and new growth will return.
Your initial claim seems excessive. Have you been playing terrible video games? Have you never played at all?

Am I funding my demise by playing this free upgraded version of Tiberium Sun? Is my 10 year old MeinKraft account doing me in? How about DayZ?
Are you even limiting this blanket statement to games on computers? I see what you're 'attempting' to say, but you've corrupted your own advice by claiming it's every game, which seems obviously untrue.
If you were trying to say that many of these companies turning out those shitty games use the money you give them to attack you, your people, and your society, then I would agree.
Considering your accusations of being excessive, have you observed the irony in your own reply? It sounds like you arrived at the correct interpretation without further assistance which is great! That you could use context, and locale to derive premise, and because you filled in the blanks that I left leads me to believe that you are going places. I could agree with your arguments if only for pedantic reasons, but when you allege that I claimed that it was ‘every’ game, when I clearly didn’t, I won’t. C+, Thanks for playing!
What about retro gaming?
Retro gaming is the shit on modern hardware.
My original copy of Warcraft II still works in dosbox, and my laptop can run at least 8 instances of the game simultaneously without breaking a sweat. Get a couple multi-monitor graphics cards and run an entire LAN party on a single machine.
Or install a bunch of Windows 98 instances on a VM server for games that need Windows and remote in.
Some cleaver Eastern Europeans make game cartridges for a bunch of old consoles that can load ROMs off an SD card, so you can play every game ever released (and some prototype/demo games that weren't) on original hardware from a single cartridge.
Someone did the same thing for the Dreamcast, where it will emulate the disc drive using a USB stick. Assuming of course you don't just want to burn all the games to CD because the copy protection on that system is completely broken.
There's never been a better time to play 30 year old games.
I’ve thought about downloading a bunch of old Sierra games. I wasn’t allowed to play Leisure Suit Larry so I’ll start there
Somehow I grew up having never played Ocarina of Time, so I fired it up for the very first time last night on the ol' N64. It was like being 13 years old again.
The only way to go IMO. My MiSTer gives me blisters.
What? Do you even know what this sub is about?
Faggots. Removing faggots.
I gave them fuckloads of money and idgaf. Because modern blizz doesnt get a dime and I let everyone know how utterly corrupt they are. Also, you're funding your own demise by using card processors and any banks that cancel people for opinions, so good luck at avoiding all of that shit, right now.
The only reason the small hats at the banks can flex on social issues is because they are profitable doing so. Unless you’re planning on going Christchurch on them, witholding money is the only effective weapon. The root will die off once the growth is stopped.
