Read up on "Gamer-gate".
Much of the focus has been on misogyny, but there is a healthy dosage of 'cism as well.
Dork/Nerd/Geek Subculture....
I feel like a lot of it comes from...the same place these police officers come from. Just as cops grew up feeling emasculated by athletes and shyt, these dorks grew up being picked on for playing Magic The CACering, speaking klingon, all that bullshyt. Now that Hollywood has appropriated some of that culture, these nerds are feeling themselves now, thinking that they should be "in charge", and nobody is trying to hear that....![]()
Gamer-gate isn't even a surprise to me. The stereotypical white gamer is a socially inept juvenile minded white supremacist who takes out his frustrations through talking shyt online. One of the main reasons I never really was a fan of playing FPS games online.
