I really doubt most gamers are liberal. Or at least I don't believe they're an overwhelming majority. The ones who aren't often just refrain from saying they aren't since doing so can often be social suicide due to how crazies react.

Entirely bullsh*tt non argument and 'I'm a victim narrative' from a former staff member no less. You can litterally say anything in forums these days, if you just add 'I feel'.I really doubt most gamers are liberal. Or at least I don't believe they're an overwhelming majority.

Argument for 'why poilitcs dont matter'.I've noticed that some people here are pulling dirt on others. Rather than focusing on the actual argument. (not going expand on that. it's just a statement)
Anyways So let's ask a question. Does it really matter that much about the political spectrum in a video game to the point that it ruins it for you because others in the opposite party you may talk to or end up playing with? I know a few people who are conservative. And honestly I don't care. As long as they don't do or support something that is clearly wrong. such as the supposed concentration camps at the borders which I'm iffy about. However can see why it could be possible due the fact trump is well... Trump.
But if it is true, and they support treating people like that (if they are asylums seekers) then no. I would tell them it's fucking inhuman and that is a horrible point of view to have. But I would never wish the person to be dead or something along the lines of go die. Because then, well... that would make me inhuman to some extent.

And people will cheer for your standpoint. Because you feel so pretty. Thats the times we are living in.
Racist, homophobic stuff, outright lies. Conspiracy theories, that arent even fun, and bare no resemblance to reality. This forum alone is hard on the edge of being a shere dumpster fire, where a few people still try to move some of the ideologic lies that fuel it - out of 'well, I guess thats what most people say, so it must be true' range.
I hate your statement - do you understand that?
To have anything of substance with your 'emotional - we so victims' - you have to give examples. Not sentiments. If you give none - and pronounce yourself - or anyone who wants to feel that way a victim - you are manipulative and nothing else.
Give examples - we could look at and at least discuss - and your sentiment may be fine - give none, and you are literally engaging in the worst form of propaganda there is. Its all emotion, nothing else, right.
F*ck.
And please remove yourself from the discussion, if thats your input.
"But I feel.."
And that may be all you are doing - you feel your reality - you dont use your brain even once. And thats a problem. Liberal, conservative, doesnt matter here.
What makes this worse, is that you get likes here just because of status (your forum badge). Thats another issue. So you hide behind status symbols and feels. And talk to an impressionable young audience - spreading victim narratives. Get out.

You do realize we can sense the darkness in you, right? Conservative political beliefs routinely accompany an array of other undesirable traits which make most of you quite easy to spot.
"Everyone here" I'll stop you right there. The moment you try to lump every single person invalidates a portion of your argument, especially when you consider people who don't view themselves as all that smart. Key example is actually myself. I get told by people around me that I'm smart, but I don't think that I am. There isn't anything that makes me think I am unique or have a ace up my sleeve or some form of anything that screams I'm a genius.Liberal beliefs accompany an array of undesirable traits. Everyone here thinks they are a genius because they are liberal even though it get force fed down your throat by the state ran education system. 99% of celebrities are liberals, if your beliefs are the same as celebrities there is something seriously wrong with what you hold important in life. Being a drone that doesn't question what they are taught doesn't make an individual unique or intelligent.

I agree. Didn't mean to come out as PC culture or ignore things. That's not what I was aiming, censorship shouldn't be a thing, regardless of material. But yeah, the biggest issue (and partially why I brought up the whole thing about "dirt") is people try digging dirt (for lack of a better word) to then try to say they are wrong. When that dirt is not relevant to the argument in a fashion that moves it forward. (in other words when arugments are brought, people attack the person instead of the person attacking the arguments. Arguments should be held by a case by case basis)Argument for 'why poilitcs dont matter'.
But then you need "vote or die" campaigns to even get people to the polls. (US is a country with a voter turnout so low - that democracy arguably doesnt work in concept anymore. You have to substitute 'but most people are happy - otherwise they'd vote' to even have it work argumentatively.)
What your argument does is arguing for "everyone just calm down - and ignore stuff", which also doesnt help.
No - the actual issue here is, that people have never learned how to hold proper discussions - and want to win anything on 'how it makes them feel emotionally - when they are confronted with a view" these days.
In fact - isn't that the premise of popular TV formats like 'The View'? So for all the young folks out there - the idea, might be a little bit older... (Much older, in fact.)
Fluffy , flowers, and ignore - is exactly not whats needed. We can live without PC culture for a while - wile trying to identify problems.
PC culture is ignoring issues - with the addition of having the out of telling everyone, that you couldnt do anything about them, because no one told you. (Because you ignored everything that wasnt presented PC.)
"But why are so many people not agreeing with me - should I look for a different hobby?" is a problem. If people start to believe, that this is really a valuable mindset to have.
If you define your position as valuable, or even correct - because of what popularity numbers it can draw - you have become a Borg.(A drone.)
And yes, that is a comment thats personal and directed at the thread starter.
I Believe your mixing me for someone else.Why didn't you quote the other guy? I quoted part of his post where he says that being a conservative makes you an unworthy person and I switched the word conservative with liberal. Why don't you quote all the other people on here that are calling people stupid and blatantly attacking others including a former staff member?
Also, didn't you delete one of your post a week ago in effort to avoid a ban because you lost control of your temper and resorted to an ad hominem attack?

I was raised in a religious, conservative household in a deep red state, forced to attend religious schools until I was 18 (all but my elementary school taught that evolution was a myth), was ostracized from my family, for a time, after confessing my atheism at the same age, finished university in the same state where, to my consternation, I had the pleasure of not a single outwardly liberal professor, and now live in the rural south where I know not a single liberal within a 15 mile radius of my house.
But okay, you're right... The liberal education system made me a mindless drone obsessed with things like truth, decency, and the rule of law. I'd warn that the next thing you can expect is us to take to the streets in jackboots, but your side already claimed that gimmick.

As for "attacking" you. I don't really feel like quoting every instance where someone does that, if I quote you, any material that is similar or targets similar material should be applied.
which yes is my fault for not making that clear

Lol at "the other side is nazis". Also, while Christianity is ironic and tragic, atheism is a complete joke.
You can look at the statistics and you will see that in most colleges the professors are indeed liberal. Explain why hollywood pushes a liberal narrative? Why are blacks over represented in Hollywood when we have a higher percentage of Latinos in the country? Why is hollywood liberal? Why is racial diversity in movies only geared towards African Americans not towards Asian Americans or Latinos? Why are the doctors in Tv Series always White and Black when in real life they are of Indian or East Asian decent? Are you really pretending like there isn't an agenda going on here?
No--"the other side has a white nationalism/domestic terrorism problem."
But please, tell us how atheism is a joke.
