@Blooper987 I dunno, by reiterating that the ''election was rigged'', you're only going to rile up more people. The whole message was pretty much ''you're doing a good thing, but please maybe don't''.
@Octane I thought of it more as “what you are fighting for is right, but you are doing it in the wrong way”. Whatever he meant, we really shouldn’t put words into his mouth. Normally just leads towards more confusion.
Whatever happens I hope this isn’t a sign of what’s to come politically this year but: 1. I don’t see Trump backing down on the rigged election thing which will divide the Republican Party into two and will most likely result in more riots 2. I don’t think the Biden administration will try and bring the country together. 3. The republicans will probably try and try to impeach Biden just like the dems did to Trump.
I’m just gonna sit back, hope we can reach a peaceful middle ground, and play video games and watch anime all day.✌️
Also, I’m gonna stop talking about this now cause I don’t wanna start any arguments😂.
So... what game was the first game y’all played this year? First thing I played was Rivals of Aether on Switch. Just wanted to get in a couple of matches before I went to bed.
@Blooper987 I marathoned Final Fantasy XV and platinumed it. In a bit of a lull at the moment. Not much I want to play, so I'm playing through Maneater until Hitman 3 which I'll probably play for months and months.
This is a terror attack incited and encouraged by the US president. His words mean nothing when he simultaneously calls the perpetrators "special people" and continues to peddle the outright lie that he won the election. If democracy and justice have any value, he needs to be arrested and charged. Absolute scum.
@mookysam Democracy is being pitchforked to death on the steps of Capitol Hill as we speak. America is no longer the land of the free. Trump ushered in a new era when he became president. The feeble and brainwashed are claiming what they think is their due. Perhaps Biden can fix things somewhat... but... May god help you all.
Trump was riling these freaks up for hours before it hit the fan. And he has pushed the "stolen election" lie ever since he lost. This uprising is 100% his fault.
The 25th Amendment needs to be invoked. Trump needs to be arrested. And far right MAGA fascists need to be treated like the national security threat they are.
@nessisonett Well, the logistics of the civil war were different, but for domestic unrest, this is fairly unprecedented.

@Gaming365247 Sorry, I’ll take my politics away and go back to playing my military shooter dealing with post 9/11 fundamentalism or go hang out with Geralt and save some minorities from racists trying to murder them. Go tell Salman Rushdie to keep politics out of literature or Pablo Picasso to keep politics out of art. The ‘video games are art’ argument can’t coexist with the ‘keep politics out of video games’ argument, they’re incompatible.
@Gaming365247 Also, TheQuartering is a disgusting human being who simps for QAnon and is a literal example of putting politics into games coverage by harassing people like Brie Larson and female Ghostbusters. You might as well be sharing a video by Alex Jones.
