It was a savvy move that will benefit Bernie in the long run and did nothing to legitimize the network's terrible agenda.

as right as it is to recognize we're in hellworld and matt having generally the right attitude (unbridled rage) and is my fave chapo he allows his cynicism to override reality. didn't he think the dems weren't going to take the house in the midterms? it would've taken a polling error unheard of in history for that to be remotely possible. maybe he's one of the countless people that thinks the 2016 polling was wrong because trump won.

Matt's stances are the most inconsistent and are basically whatever he has to say to be the most pessimistic at that very moment. The other hosts constantly make fun on him for this, esp. Amber, and thus he really shouldn't be taken too literally most of the time. My man's brain is as broken as Felix's (See: Him having a panic attack playing fortnite because he couldn't tell the cartoon guns from real guns and started panicking).

The best one is his argument is they're too fun and thus gamers will not want to do anything else because it's really great to cut from that to him throwing the controller down and shouting "WHO COULD FIND THIS FUN!!??" Matt doesn't like video games, and that's okay, but he's got some real brain demons so he's gotta conjure up some philosophical reason that he's morally right in not liking them and it'll always been a new and creative argument. And that stubborn pessimism in the face of reality is why he owns.

It's a youth culture phenomenon, so I suspect that it's a mid life crisis thing, just like the soundcloud rap obsession.

If he actually played video games he'd be able to make a much stronger argument against them. I remember specifically he said that all NPCs are just tools that the player used to accomplish their goal and had no emotional connection to them, which effected how gamer see reality. But, like, one of the biggest games of the past couple years was Persona, the game about forming strong relationships in high school. Half the game play in Persona has the only reward of being better friends with the NPCs. Which Matt could've used to strengthen his "games are better than reality" argument

I play and enjoy video games and whatever the gist of the negative things that Matt said about video games was I'm sure he was totally right about. Agree that his cynicism kind of bleeds over his blindspots about the population/electorate at large. Also, please vote even if it won't get us out of this mess.

Here's an idea: Matt's anti-gaming rants are partially a bit because it's funny to listen to him argue about them with his gamer co-hosts and the show is meant to be entertaining.

Remember Matt being a gigantic baby and asking to commit suicide during the big fight at the end of the second Cthulhu campaign? I feel like that's relevant to the video game conversation.

It's a little surprising because he's one of the ones who wasn't born with a silver spoon in his mouth and has suffered from legit hardship re: disability. you'd think that would have tempered him to adversity a bit more

I do a lot of tabletop role playing, and Matt's reaction wasn't too uncommon for people who are new to it and haven't really been handled correctly by the DM and to a lesser extent the other players. It's easy for new people to get frustrated when they feel like they built a "bad" character or that the adventure isn't giving them opportunities to do useful things. I wouldn't try to psychoanalyze the podcast man over getting upset at a game in a way a lot of people do.
