It’s no surprise that geeks, nerds, and gamers have a pipeline that leads them to the far right. I want to know if the reverse is true because I’m an angry gamer who ended up here on the left.

I wonder as to whether left wing folks also recruit in those circles.
I believe pointing out the scummy practices by major game companies (i.e., EA, Nintendo, etc.) and how Capitalism allows and encourages such practices is probably a good start. Although we should also prepare for the inevitable pushback from the Right, which has long established itself in most gaming circles already.
Yeah. Personally I barely see folks on the left cover these issues, which is why I decided to stick to gaming content even after my leftward shift.
