I don't know if you're trying to practice your debate skills and are trying to work out if ignoring the point and making another one make you appear right or smart, but I can tell you that it is failing, at least with me. Maybe it works on some of those reading this, though.

Not all games have sexism in them, just like not all games are violent.

Also, a "causal link" between violence/sexism in games and in real life doesn't mean that everyone playing violent/sexist games will commit violence or be a sexist
Hi, gamer here.
Our community has been constantly threatened by a moarlistic society who has been trying to censor my media, something I care about, for decades.
So? Now you want to disregard valid criticism because it threatens your (and mine) favourite hobby? Cry me a river.

We were and still are judged for liking something other people dont, the right used to call us murderers in waiting and now the left call us mysogynists.

The only thing keeping censorship away has been an earnest effort by the majority of our community to dispell the fearmongering that has seeped into the mass media and only recently are we being accepted by the mainstream as something other than a tickng timebomb, we still have to work on the mysigynistic pigs thing but we'll get there all the same.
A lot of resentment in those words. I think we are approaching the crux of the issue. How old were you when your parents tried to limit your gaming time? How did it make you feel.

The guy who has been supporting you with thanks and snide comments has just gone full Jack Thompson.

I cant believe my bait actually worked, holly crap.
And Jack Thompson is...?
