im sorry mods for the comment section you are about to receive.
We're less than a page in and it's already super embarrassing.
Anyway, this sucks. I wonder what it is about games culture that brings out the absolute worst in people, because it sure doesn't seem like other subcultures are quite so toxic.
They aren't? Look at the basic political discourse in this country. Things are toxic because way too many people deal in absolutes so they stand out in the crowd.
This whole series of events have felt like a total Americanization of an otherwise laissez faire international community. Everything is utterly polarized and quite literally boils down to "you're with us or you're with the terrorists", as seen in this very comment section.
