What's up with video games being associated with right wing politics over the last few years, even though conservatives tried banning them in the 90s and 2000s?

Power shifted. Liberals who want to ban vidya are more influential than conservatives that want to ban it.
Either way it's just a standard distraction from economic and geopolitical issues that no politician wants to seriously discuss.

Left wing is currently the more pushy and dogmatic ideology.
Conteporary left wing is increasingly radical. That means that they label everything that does not fit their strict ideological purpose as a political enemy.
That means everything that is not left-wing must be right wing agenda.

This is the kind of narrative they push through jounralism and cultural analysis. And of course, increasing the tension and frequency of political attacks produced a counter-reaction, equally as stupid, equally as poorly constructed, but aiming in the opposite direction. These reactionaries embraced the left-wing narrative, basically going "well if you think non-ideological games are right wing, then you should have what you asked for, let dance" and pushing the idea that games SHOULD be right wing. Thus snowballing the whole situation.

It's a product of an increasingly disfunctional political and philosophical discourse and the fact that western societies, US in particular, are becoming dangerous societies locked in serious (and fundamentally wrong) ideological war. And it's going to get a lot worse before it gets any better. Get used to it.

Because sjws aren't satisfied with destroying something good.
Almost every new multiplayer game i play now has some sort of sjws propaganda. Either some character is fucking trans or gay or bi or someshit. or there's a horde of fucking psycho people trying to shove their beliefs down your throat.
And the the devs want to shove their "this character is gay" "this character is genderless" bullshit down your throat and then tons of people get pissed about it because a majority of the population doesn't give a fuck about it not until you start shoving down their fucking throat and attempt to force them to fucking conform with it.

It wasn't conservatives who tried to ban video games. It was authoritarians.
It's also authoritarians who want to ban them today.

Basically they are still largely seen as children's toys so it's difficult for them to get the same freedom as film or literature. Eventually video games are going to end up bland and uninteresting just like the comic book industry.
>>
>>387783882
In short, extremists are fucking retarded and ruin everything, regardless of their political leanings.

I betting that Rightism will become the new norm eventually, which will inevitably lead to places like /pol/ advocating for the censorship of games that don't fit their world view.

Fuck Authoritarians.

I have a dream.
I want to shoot guns safely in the comfort of my land with a backstop, while kindly stopping when i'm asked about the noise. I want to smoke a joint after a long day in the comfort of my home while watching a movie, never before driving or before work. I want to occasionally click on a snuff video, or play a videogame with terrible violence or sexual themes. I want to engage in good online discussion, and sometimes I want to post absolute bullshit like racist jokes or political conspiracy's while being nice to minorities in real life.

I just want to be left alone, where is my political party?.

>What the hell is a right-wing game?
I don't think the alt-right has a very clear idea of how things should actually be. After all, they are pure reactionaries. So it seems to me they mostly go "what the left say, but OPPOSITE!"

>>387784156
>In short, extremists are fucking retarded and ruin everything,
Yep. A lesson we have seen thousand times through out history, yet somehow we still keep failing to learn.

>I betting that Rightism will become the new norm eventually,
I'm not sure of that though. Not world-wide universally. I am afraid that especially in America, the left is entrenched really, really deep.

>>387784348
That is true, and deeply worrisome, but as I said above: I don't think that is going to really happen in the US at least. In fact, the situation in US is far more reminding of the situation in pre-revolutionary Russia: the radical leftists having near unlimited control over education and intellectual elites.

I haven't read it so it very well could be but that doesn't mean the medium it's in isn't held back by an unnecessarily strong regulation which is clearly a barrier to total creativity. I'm not saying nothing can ever shine, I'm saying everything is held back.

For those who are interested in these kinds of things (before the thread gets pruned): I strongly recommend looking up Jonathan Haidt, american social psychologist doing a pretty damn good job commenting and explaining what exactly is going on with US politics from an academic standpoint.

He introduces a pretty interesting terminological distinction, pointing out that the one dimensional spectrum of politics should really be described in two dimensions:
Right vs. Left, and liberal vs. illiberal as two very distinct qualities.
