In case you thought there was any distance between the SJW crowd, and the "violent video games cause murder" crazies, think again. This writer at FemHype has decided that because men (and only men) enjoy violent video games, we are "Enemies of Progress"  Except this article had nothing to do with violence in video games, aside from explaining a previous blog post she wrote being misinterpreted as anti-violence. She explicitly says in the article that she is not against violence in video games, and she never once said that she believes violence = masculinity.  Games with women-majority audiences, women-majority casts, and women-majority dev teams are frequently lumped in with this kind of critique [that they are not 'gamey' enough]. Violence, goes the logic, is what makes a game masculine—and, by extension, being masculine is what makes a video game a video game.  She is not referring to her personal beliefs on the matter, rather she is pointing out criticism she has encountered. Besides, this isn't even from the blog post you linked to, it's from an  396a   older blog post that she is clarifying with this one. The point she is trying to drive home with it is that violence and masculinity aren't the point of it, she just wishes there was less hostility to diversity.  what exactly is your background? Well it turns out she's a tumblrina, who likes to spend most of her time blogging about the petty fights of black celebrities. I just wonder what she looks like...  And here you go making the same mistake she does - she refers to 'cis hetero white manchildren crying bourbon into their bacon scented beards', and you similarly pull the same BS. Who the fuck cares? TL/DR - You missed the point of the article and took quotes out of context. Her arguments reek of stereotyping, but so do yours. - edit - To be clear, you are 100% right about her clear prejudices   Enemies of progress (EOPs, if you will) are generally natural manifestations of historical institutions of oppression and bigotry. As a result, I’m never all that surprised to find them among gamers. No attempt to hide your prejudices. Who would these gamers be exactly?   From an article about being inclusive and diverse, this sounds awfully exclusive.
