Comment on A patient gamer youtuber explaining why she only plays old games
dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 week agoYes, I do think there is a tendency to condemn people from their associations, and that can lead to unfair characterizations - though I don’t think this is one of those cases.
Actually watching some of the video, her comments align pretty directly with conservative talking points and builds upon existing conservative “arguments” and outrage about the influence of feminism on video games.
I think nublung is basically suggesting we shouldn’t be sharing bigoted or hateful perspectives, which I agree with.

Align with or are those talking points? If so what concretely is the problem here?
This is still not engaging with the content itself.
How does your suggestion not lead to an echo chamber? Ideas and arguments should be considered before dismissal.
Btw I find it really strange that you talk for someone else instead of making your own statements. How do you know what that user suggests?
