    Thank the moronic mother’s who clutch their pearls regarding “violent videogames”. Modern psychiatry has concluded with finality that being violent, or even pro-violence, has nothing to do with videogames. But there are idiots who need to sell books to other idiots, because science denounces the notion.

    The human brain registers a fake scenario and you suspend your disbelief. Juxtaposed with actual violence, with physical violence, gun violence, etc, they are not the same.

    In the same vein, if anyone has watched a violent movie, they are then also pro-violence?

    The answer is no.
