I was here before virtually everyone else. The absolute obsession with video games and defending Amy criticism of them is the problem. We haven't won shit on the video game or pop culture front yet yall keep insisting that everyone should continue consuming it en mass.
Most of our problems are exactly because people have allowed pop culture to dominate their lives. I love much of pop culture as entertainment but it doesn't offend me if others don't like or even dislike the things I do
We're not talking about a difference in taste here. We're talking about how all of the establishment boomercon pundits seem intent on alienating and making themselves irrelevant to young people by not only dismissing pop culture and video games, but by routinely shitting on people for liking it.
The fact that you're sitting here accusing me of engaging in that behavior when we've spent decades on the receiving end of it from guys like Matt Walsh, Stephen Crowder and Gavin McGuiness proves that you're the one who isn't paying attention.
You're still whining about people not liking your shit. Also the fact that you include Crowder speaks volumes to your sensitivity since he's been talking about pop culture being infected for years.
If you get butthurt and decide everything based on whether someone likes your pop culture shit then humanity deserves the rot it's experiencing
No. Two entire generations of young men have grown up playing video games as their principal entertainment medium. For more than a decade, those same young men have grown more and more frustrated and alienated as their go-to form of escapism has been increasingly infested by leftists who want to use it as yet another stick go beat them with, to bully, harangue and demoralize them, and call them manbabies and racists when they speak out against that trend.
And so they turn away from the cultural left to more right-wing spaces in order to find like-minded people. These are the young people who might be more open to conservative ideas. But for every one of them who finds Nerdrotic, or Geeks + Gamers or even Sargon, there are another two or three whose first interaction with a rightist space is Matt Walsh calling video games demonic and his producer calling them manbabies for disagreeing with him.
QBG quit Crowder's show for the exact reason that he was constantly looked down on and treated like the kid in the room for caring about pop culture franchises and wanting to discuss the free reign that the left has enjoyed in those spaces, and in the social consciousness of the mostly young people who consume that material.
This attitude is the reason the right has lost the culture war, and two whole generations of potential allies.
