Wow you really nailed that straw man. Look at the stuffing fly. But yes, being scammed online is a crime. Video game gold has real value and if you are stealing it from people via deception, you are committing a crime. And social media is a social situation, wherein you can suffer social effects such as being bullied.
Your reasoning was that you can't be bullied on the internet because you can quit. This is flawed reasoning, which I easily showed by example of other things you can quit where there is bullying. You will need to find another basis for your argument besides the "optional" nature of the internet.
thinking pixels have value
I bet if you had all your steam games deleted and all of your emails and you were banned from this website, you'd be pretty upset, despite that it's all just pixels. Stop trying to sound cool by doing a nihilist-filtered impression of your parents.
It's not flawed reasoning. If you can make something disappear in an instant, and yet you don't, you are making the choice for it to continue.
Because that's how being an adult works.
No amount of you moving the goal posts changes that fact. Least of all trying to escalate in such a blatant, and lame, attempt to provoke an emotional reaction.
You aren't good at this. Least of all when you're trying to argue with an adult.
So Dark Souls is bullying you then? Is being scammed out of WoW gold a human rights violation?
Just turn the fuckin thing off. Stop acting like this kind of thing is equivalent to real life.
And no I'm no boomer. But I'm certainly not fool enough to think that friggin Facebook VR is a "key part of life."

Straw man you say, when you immediately leapt to proclaiming this was somehow comparable to sports or school. Accusing me of what you are guilty.
That said, I laugh at you thinking pixels have value. Couldn't get more ridiculous than that.
