>>15923349There was a point an old colleague made to me about the video game violence discussion.
People don't want to think about what they don't already think about, if they did, they would think about it. Lol, it's sort of stupid, but I think about that statement alot when listen to people moralize media depictions of anything. In reality, nothing happened, immoral or moral, Doom is killing people when you shoot a monster, your hypothetical abortion game doesn't kill babies, in reality some pixels moved. In movies, when you see a depiction of rape, the actor didn't rape the actor, in reality nothing happened. So what is there to moralize, what is outraging these people? Aha, you made this outraged person think about something they didn't want to think about, that's the only thing that's happened. They don't want to think about murdering for fun, they don't want to think about war happening in the home, but this game made them think that and now they're angry. They should chock on a cock, who in the hell cares?
