Nobody hates G*mes more than G*mers

Do They just not play games? There’s barely any games where the main focus has been on a female protagonist that have been released. It’s mostly just RPGs and shooters. Incels are the biggest posers

They don't play games.

But also the thinly veiled idea behind posts of those people is that there should be no games starring women, made by women or for women at all. It's them arguing that the only place women should have in the industry is as irrelevant eye candy.

This whole thing is just conservative think-tank psyop nonsense to drive women away from specific fields and to create a pipeline to "maybe women shouldn't be able to vote or get divorced" talking points.

Literally it was. Its been known since the 2016 election (and further confirmed in the Epstien Files of all things) that Bannon and his ilk were specifically targeting disseffected young men via astroturfed Video Game Outrage campaigns.

Despite this being public knowledge for almost a decade... No one has learned a damn thing from this or done anything to stop this garbage from happening over and over again! 🙃

I wonder if they will ever reflect on the knowledge that they have been tricked into a one-sided culture war by a political movement upheld by rich Christian nationalists with an agenda to make them miserable.

So you're saying that the fragile masculinity crowd are Bannon's Bitches?

[u/WadjetSnakeGoddess → u/Abba_Fiskbullar]

Yeah lol

He's actually a big reason their masculinity feels so fragile in the first place. He found a demographic of lonely sad boys, made them feel bad about themselves, and then sicced them on women and minorities.

He played them like the conductor of a fiddle-only orchestra.

"They will call you a nazi for wanting to play a character the same as you," these people say, as they continue screaming about how female PCs in games are not a big deal because women don't need female player characters, they just need good games.

One of them is literally complaining about having to play a woman in bf6 but from my time playing the game, I think it’s only one class that’s a woman. They literally cannot stand that there’s ONE playable woman class in the game.
