Let's be honest here. I've been a hardcore gamer my entire life. I can't remember the last time I went a week without playing a video game. I know plenty of other gamers.

But gaming culture is absolutely one of the most toxic, putrid cultures in the world. It has been for quite a while, and it probably will be for quite a while. Gamers by and large are selfish, self-righteous, privileged, and completely impossible to satisfy people. If they don't get exactly what they want, or do get that even, they cry like immature children, and a lot of that is probably because they are immature children.

But to be a point where the culture is at the point of threatening to kill people and not reading the best source because they declared solidarity for women due to there being people in the world simply criticizing the male-catered world of male power fantasy video entertainment is laughably bad. It should be laughed at completely, and we should not stop completely shitting on gaming culture until people stop doing this shit.

I don't know what's the bigger root: games and gamers' unadulterated hatred and fear of women, or the absolutely abysmal game and game journalism industry. Which causes which?
