Should video games be outlawed? It's a degenerate, non-intellectually stimulating "hobby" for children and fat manchildren. They stunt the growth of children's still developing brains, turning them into 30-year-old NEETs who live in their mothers basement playing the interactive jew from dawn to dusk.
The NEET epidemic is directly related to video games, and to a lesser extent anime. If the west is to survive, we need strong, healthy men. Not fat disgusting video game addicted scum.

The entire internet, and the personal computer (at home) should be illegal.

> It's a degenerate, non-intellectually stimulating "hobby"
You just called out 90% of human activities and behavior, bravo, so when are you leaving Sup Forums to prove you're not manchild anymore?
Elon Musk plays video games.
this is 100% true. Internet boards are just as bad if not worse than video games in many cases. It's just the male flipside of facebook/smartphone culture for women.
all post WWII technology is degenerate for home consumption. ALL of it.
Shitposting on imageboards is far more intellectually stimulating than playing video games. Literally anything is.
Outcasts have always existed in society. Now it's just amplified with the technology and social programs we have today. It makes it way easier to be one.
I think it depends on the game. Shooters and action adventure rpgs, and shit like that are garbage. Rhythm games and fighting games are games for the thinking man.
China and South Korea treat all internet/PC use as a drug and put kids into rehab. That's why they beat the US.
the EU isn't really out to censor your "free speech" on forums, that's all a psyop to keep you addicted to the screen and give you the illusion of freedom. the LAST thing the kikes want to do is shut down the internet, it's their most valuable weapon.
You could argue that a lot of video games are actually intellectually stimulating.
Its the only means of survival for a lot of sensitive people in this world. If i didnt hqve video games Id be dead by now.
99% of people alive today should be dead (or not have been born) this includes me and you. Modern degenerate medicine let this happen.
It's becoming normalized though. Parents see video games as merely an electric babysitter. A way to keep your kid busy without actually spending time with them, and then they're surprised and left wondering when their kid becomes a NEET.
if the internet was de-anonymized and entirely tracked (or better yet just made illegal as a home service) this would cease to be a problem. Sadly this is unthinkable in the modern West and will never happen because "muh internets" "muh freedoms"
Anyone who would use the internet to learn would be capable of learning the same from a library. The personal computer has no redeeming value outside of the office or school.
Also not true

>Certain types of video games can help to train the brain to become more agile and improve strategic thinking, according to scientists from Queen Mary University of London and University College London (UCL).
>Dr Brian Glass from Queen Mary's School of Biological and Chemical Sciences, said: "Previous research has demonstrated that action video games, such as Halo, can speed up decision making but the current work finds that real-time strategy games can promote our ability to think on the fly and learn from past mistakes."
>"Our paper shows that cognitive flexibility, a cornerstone of human intelligence, is not a static trait but can be trained and improved using fun learning tools like gaming."
Nah, let the faggot's have their video games. If it wasn't their vidya it'd be some other useless and childish addiction.
At least video games keeps them out of my sight.
What you cease to realize as well is that most don't become NEETS, they become something worse - "successful" tech industry drones who "contribute" to degenerate society and culture and are at the whim of the state/corporations . Computer programming is degenerate 99% of the time. It's all about sucking the world out of reality.
>Sadly this is unthinkable in the modern West and will never happen because "muh internets" "muh freedoms"
That pesky freedom. We must do away with it.
>recreation should be outlawed
Fuck off statist cunt
wtf i hate video games now
It's not even about freedom. the Internet was NEVER about freedom. From DAY ONE it was a DARPA operation. The internet is a propaganda machine, a data mining device, and a military grade porn porn delivery system.
If you gave two shits about privacy and freedom you would have smashed your computers and never come back to the internet since you're giving up your information every time you use fucking Google. We were all freer without the internet
>MUH VIDEO GAYNS R ART
While it invokes an emotional response (gleeful joy), beating niggers and hookers in a 3D spoof of Downtown LA is not really art and it's definitely not intellectually stimulating.
>non-intellectually stimulating
I bet you don't even believe your own words, you cocksucking retard homo-prick kikebafoon.
that's literally and scientifically wrong. computer games are intellectually stimulating, you lying fuck.
When did I say anything about art?
Try Hearts of Iron 4
The Pilgrims did nothing wrong. The US would be infinitely better if it stayed a British colony
>muh decision making skills
>muh reaction time
If playing video games gave you any worthwhile decision making skills, people would realize they should stop playing video games and go outside. Meet people, socialize, make friends. Playing video games WRECKS your ability to socialize in the real world. No, your "online friends" do not count. These people can't even look other adults in the eye when they speak to them because their video games are their only friend. It's god damn pathetic.
To be fair I have actual autism and I was this way before I ever played a single game.
Don't try and justify your shitty taste in games
You can thank the genetically engineered vaccinations for that, but that's another issue entirely.
>The NEET epidemic is directly related to video games, and to a lesser extent anime. If the west is to survive, we need strong, healthy men
no, entertainment isn't the problem. the problem is WOMEN. as fucking always. the more marxism, feminism and socialism there is, the more depraved men become because these political instances seperate men and women too much. at least video games sometimes bring people together. at least it's a good conversational topic to break the ice.
>Video games ruin social skills
Nice ass pull fact there. Almost every guy I know plays video games and some girls, all of whom lead normal social lives and have steady jobs. It's a hobby like anything else
Video games are just supposed to be a thing that you grow out of when you hit 15/16
18 at the absolute oldest.
Why is this an issue?
>playing video games and fun is degenerate
>shitposting on a Chilean sock puppet show forum is a completely justified use of my time
You'd have a white minority now if that happened, but nice b8
Rhythm games are at the bottom of the gaming pool.
There's a reason people like me were created - to be military-industrial complex drones, successful enough to get a good job and do well in school but incapable of leading or having a family. Modern technology is degenerate and I don't know now much longer I can go on with my job.
in China and South Korea it IS a literally drug, there is dozens of cases of some neet starving to death because t hey really wanted to finish some quest
If video games did not exist, I would probably go out and murder every little muslim boy and ass rape them.
Most modern "jobs" especially the high paying technology ones are degenerate and not real work. Programming etc are basically just playing games all day in front of a screen rotting and barely better than gaming.
The whole service economy is deliberately about feminizing men and divorcing society from reality.
Video games doesn't stop your religious brothers from doing that.
>Video games are just supposed to be a thing that you grow out of when you hit 15/16
no, they aren't. who the fuck says that? a tool who doesn't know shit says that kind of trash.
nowhere it says you have to "grow out" of something and stop enjoying it. it's horseshit to think that.
>Should video games be outlawed?
That is one of the stupidest things I've ever read in this post.
>muh anecdotal evidence
Look at the NEET epidemic. They have two things in common: they play video games (usually 8+ hours a day), and have zero social skills. Put two and two together. Sitting in a dark room in front of your television screen all day every day will ruin your social skills.
Because there are millions upon millions of NEETs who have had their lives ruined because they never stopped.
Drop out of the system brother. for your health and to starve the hildebeast. Be a true patriot
Yes it's degenerate but when you have nothing else going on it's often the only thing that can stimulate you.
Playing video games is like stacking blocks or playing with dolls. It's enjoyable for children, but it's not intellectually stimulating enough for adults.
Not an argument.
the funny thing is how similar computer programming is to those repetitive tasks, especially modern frameworks where you never even need to think much.
This is deliberate. I believe computer coding is the same as playing a video game - completely worthless repetition
Rhythm games are literally the pinnacle of video gaming. It's everything technology has been advancing towards for 30 years. No other type of game is better for your brain.
>Responding to anecdotal evidence with anecdotal evidence
Summer is here alright.
>but it's not intellectually stimulating enough for adults.
you clearly don't know any games then. besides, even if you're following that fallacy of yours, then you're already contradicting yourself because you complain about adults being intellectually stimulated because of games. you have no argument.
hell, and since we're talking about Memeux: even Stefan likes talking about video games.
people don't realize the damage it did because the whole of modern society is digitized and structured around the same antisocial framework.
Now that every normie has a smartphone everyone's social skills are damaged so it APPEARS that a gamer is normal
What's the matter OP?
It's pretty much the internet itself and entitled babies.
Easier access to vidya, porn, mongolian cartoon boards like this, social media, and many other places makes it easier to NEET. For the love of god there is an autistic sexless virgin animu fapping board known as R9K...
Most of these NEET faggots blame their problems on a bad upbringing, women, shitty parents, and other pathetic excuses. Meanwhile our ancestors fought in wars, survived famines, raised out of wedlock, and still some of the same factors present in modern society. We have a massive manchild epidemic because everybody wants bajillions of shekels and a cozy life without having to work for it. Stop blaming fucking Gen X and Boomers for this shit. Yes they had easier opportunities but times are changing.
Sink or swim.
Maybe the internet was a bad idea.
Just like not all forms of literature are art, neither are all forms of games.
I don't know about you but I'll happily play DOOM and smoke weed and not give a trout about shit.
>not playing based roguelikes
What's your excuse Sup Forums?
fpbp
The internet was a mistake
>sensitive
Boo hoo, man the fuck up.
Maybe you need to face the real world so you stop being so "sensitive" and grow the fuck up you little bitch.
You've just explained the problem with the West.
>antisocial
games aren't antisocial, you can call NPCs "parasocial" if you want. that's the only thing that's true. but the rabbit hole goes far deeper and goes what? it has nothing to do with games or the internet. it has to do with the majority being good little drones and working a 9-5 job until they retire. people would socialize more if they'd find time. so since they barely can hang out in person, they text each other via phone. that's why it's normal. and if your dumb bitch friend doesn't have time for you, well, recreation time it is again. can you really blame anybody except for the very small fraction of the worst fucking NEET leeches?
on top of that, social interaction isn't some sort of holy grail. IT FUCKING SUCKS. normies SUCK. women SUCK. people SUCK. so sooner or later the need for escapism reappears again.
that's normal and healthy. nobody says you have to lose yourself in games completely.
Some are, sure. Video games are not degenerate by nature. Leave them be.
Videogames are first-amendment protected speech. Being anti-videogame is no different than being anti-gun: a reactionary faggot.
>Videogames degenerate
Well, then the internet, books, art, music, indoor activities, texting, movies, theater, acting are degenerate as well...
Woopsy doopsy.
"All things in moderation"
If you can't follow that code then fuck you.
>The whole service economy is deliberately about feminizing men and divorcing society from reality.
Pretty much.
Not to mention dismantling real factory jobs that go to China while Western countries get stuck with vaporware service jobs.
Guess what matters more in a war?
How big your insurance industry is?
How many Starbucks you have?
Or how big your steel production is?
Most of that's actually true though. Actors were considered lower than prostitutes in Shakespeare's day. And popular novel writing as we know it started with female writers to sell to women.
God no. The masses need to be entertained somehow otherwise their only hobby will be similar to 1970's esque street gangs.
>wake up

vidya games are fun rite guyz?
Then cross a line at art? Art is degenerate?
The point I was trying to make is that some video games can be considered art because there is a lot of artistic work that can be put in to them.
So there is degenerate art and non-degenerate art, you can choose yourself when the line of degeneracy is crossed or not.
>all things in moderation
That's all there really is to it. Balance.
>Thinking there is anything to amount to.
Look at Bernie, didn't work for years and suddenly he is a candidate for USA presidency.
Eventually the cycle brakes, it doesn't loop forever.
Enjoy it while you still can.
agreed, people who play video games are beta cucks
this is from an alpha male living in LA who bangs 10/10s on the regular who isn't a nigger lol
Alright it's different if you're Jewish.
>Oyyy bernie, you have a bad resume for presidency here
>DID I MENTION I'M JEWISH?!
>OH VEY! WELCOME ABOARD!
>he actually thinks games dont require skill and are not stimulating
The whole reason people play games is for stimulation you fucking retard
Nice projecting
You're right...
But what other alternatives do you have?
Reality is a bitch and going to a male "safe space" is comfy.
My rule of thumb is "if it ain't broke, then don't fix it".
>stop liking what i don't like!!!
>questions whether video games should be banned
>somehow OK with computers
OP > confirmed retard
Naw, I'll keep playing my vidya and enjoying life whilst balancing my real life
You can learn just about anything using a computer and the internet. Video games are absolutely worthless. They provide nothing but harm to the user and to society.
I only play online games. My squad in Rainbow Six: Siege are all law students from around the world and we talk about law while we play.

I didn't. I'm about to start as a software engineer. But I'm starting to see how worthless I am in the face of a societal collapse or really any form of real life
global connection and having all knowledge in your grasp is truly addicting and kinda overpowering my simple monkey brain :3
Life is short, so might as well enjoy it.
Nice taste in games, law not so much.
>Rhythm games
...
that should be called the no-pill
>Hating on video games.
Just lol faggot.
Nothing wrong with video games. I play vidya in my spare time but I still got a graduate degree and a white-collar job.
The problem is people. Those fat NEET bastards who are associated with video gaming would have been useless degenerates in any age.
not really, they'd be working factory jobs and thus not fat . they'd probably be a lot of alcoholics though.
get off the internet grandpa
this is 100% true
Paradox games help teach you about geography and history when your not trying to change it
