    That’s a bit unfair to gamers. It’s like taking a shit on readers because of the existence of “Mein Kampf”.

      I mean, the g*mers culture is really toxic, its racist and its sexist. I don’t want to side with them.

        There are more than one “gamer” culture. Not all “gamers” are racist FPS players and not all racist FPS players either agree or understand the message carried by their games for all that matter. I think that we should denounce and explain the worst aspects of gaming culture and not denounce gaming as a whole as something bad with no value. Otherwise this is counter-productive given the cultural importance video games have took.

      No, its very fair. mein kampf is what most gamers would consider their favorite strategy guide. Gamers are reactionary trash.

      Not gonna lie, I’m down with shitting on readers for being insufferable elitists who only consume European and USAmerican books. From white authors, of course.
