Why should anyone, self-identified gamer or not, give a poo poo about the "community"? I play video games, I'm sure some racist or sexist person plays the same video games I do. So what?

I don't "associate" with the gamer "community" at all though. I play games that I'm certain other people play, and some of those people are racist or sexist. Also what the hell is your rant about pedo dating sims? And what does that have to do with anything? That some strange projection man.

It really seems like "gamer" is a label looking for a definition. I don't know why to be honest, but that's what it seems like to me. It also seems the "problem" with games is similarly made up. Because there are hundreds of thousands of games played by millions of people, and not everyone likes every game nor should they be expected to. So when people say "X is bad" because of "Y" it seems like they are doing a substitution. They take a thing they don't like, specific types of video games, find assholes on the internet that like the thing, then point them out and imply everyone that likes video games is like that. Which is an intellectually bankrupt position and one that should be dismissed out of hand regardless of the speaker.

I'm a "friender" I hang out with and do activities with people that call me their friend. Some of these activities include playing "games", watching "movies", or discussing "books" we have read. Obviously we are all also extremely sexist, racist, and terrorist.
