Why do gamers generally appear to be more left-wing?
Why do gamers generally appear to be more left-wing?

Is there any reasonable explanation as of why this is the case?
I have never encountered so many people with a more left-wing leaned or even communist opinion, as through gaming communities.

Love that this thread is just the typical “left wingers are unemployed losers” circlejerk. :steamlaughcry:

Also if most gamers really are left wing then what is the logic behind “woke” games failing because people are supposedly sick of wokeness and politics? Or is the left not actually as woke as everyone says and it’s actually only a minority? Hmmm…many questions, few answers.

Woke games fail because left wingers are too poor from not working to afford the outrageous quadruple-A prices of games nowadays.

Coupled with the insane costs needed to poop out even just average mid-table games such "woke" games miss the financial mark by a country mile and are put out to pasture as a result.

In all seriousness the "woke" left is a very small but vocal minority like in every other part of the internet. They just happen to mysteriously get into positions of game development where they've let their personal politics influence a large degree of the game they are making. Probably because post GG certain parasites managed to bully their way into certain corporate hierarchies and thus pull influence to a degree.
Ah so left wingers are simultaneously unemployed losers and infiltrating the video games industry by getting employed in positions of game development to destroy video games from the inside. Makes a lot of sense!

First time is me ♥♥♥♥ talking for the sake of ♥♥♥♥ talking. :)

Second one is a bit more nuanced then that.

you are right, i am not from usa. but i spend an unfortunate amount of time learning about your country, because of how it impacts my own. and to me from my research, it seems like "young people" in usa are actually far more right wing, and are actually being one of the main reasons donald trump won your recent election.

That's a recent development. Single moms are more likely to raise "soy boys". There's another term to look up on Google.
the mainstream media for a long time has demonized gamers or gaming in general, and most of the mainstream media has a centre to right-wing bias.

They targeted gamers.

Gamers.

We're a group of people who will sit for hours, days, even weeks on end performing some of the hardest, most mentally demanding tasks. Over, and over, and over all for nothing more than a little digital token saying we did.

We'll punish our selfs doing things others would consider torture, because we think it's fun.

We'll spend most if not all of our free time min maxing the stats of a fictional character all to draw out a single extra point of damage per second.

Many of us have made careers out of doing just these things: slogging through the grind, all day, the same quests over and over, hundreds of times to the point where we know evety little detail such that some have attained such gamer nirvana that they can literally play these games blindfolded.

Do these people have any idea how many controllers have been smashed, systems over heated, disks and carts destroyed 8n frustration? All to latter be referred to as bragging rights?

These people honestly think this is a battle they can win? They take our media? We're already building a new one without them. They take our devs? Gamers aren't shy about throwing their money else where, or even making the games our selves. They think calling us racist, mysoginistic, rape apologists is going to change us? We've been called worse things by prepubescent 10 year olds with a ♥♥♥♥♥♥ head set. They picked a fight against a group that's already grown desensitized to their strategies and methods. Who enjoy the battle of attrition they've threatened us with. Who take it as a challange when they tell us we no longer matter. Our obsession with proving we can after being told we can't is so deeply ingrained from years of dealing with big brothers/sisters and friends laughing at how pathetic we used to be that proving you people wrong has become a very real need; a honed reflex.

Gamers are competative, hard core, by nature. We love a challange. The worst thing you did in all of this was to challange us. You're not special, you're not original, you're not the first; this is just another boss fight.

Wanna know something funny? Many leftists think gamers are "Far-Right." which is funny because the Far-Right also hates gamers too.

The vast majority of gamers tend to have mild and tame political views despite what those in the fringes of the political spectrum say. Especially those working in the so-called "media."

It's because gamers are usually much more intelligent and open-minded, so they lean left. We also look better, but that's beside the point.

On the contrary, gamers, especially PC gamers, seem to be more right-wing I'll say. Definitely.
