Like 90% of it is glorification of the military that he is literally in control of in real life, and it doesn't even come close to the realities of his military

sjws btfo though so it's cool

Is it weird that we're still having this violence in video games debate? Like I remember it being old hat even when Jack Thompson was around.

Jack Thompson stuff wasn't even 15 years ago. Government doesn't change that fast, certainly not the 70 year old dudes. Also he's still around.

I just kind of thought we'd moved past this is all. I guess I was being optimistic.

It's already been scientifically debunked. I don't know why Trump thinks otherwise.

Video games are an appropriate venue in which to take out outbursts of rage. By disallowing such games, it will instead cause unstable people to find a new sandbox in which to take out their rage: The real world. It would actually INCREASE violent crime.

I mean he also thinks vaccines cause autism and global warming is made up by the Chinese to do ??? so I don't think "scientifically debunked" means much to him.

If Trump says video games are bad, then yeah, Vlado will be anti-video games. He doesn't have any opinions of his own. He just parrots opinions to annoy/upset other people.

It's a pretty big stretch given how game focused this website it.

I think ulti often comes close though actually. I've seen others veer in that direction too. People who have very clearly outgrown games but the classics are still such a big part of their identity, so instead they just hate any game made after they turned 14 and pretend it's just their opinion.

Did you really just say that? Donald Trump? The man who pushed the Birther movement for years without a shred of support for his stipulations? I don't think evidence is something Trump has ever cared about.

I mean, we have.

Brown vs Entertainment Merchant's Association is the supreme court case that sealed this in 2011. Videogames have been protected free speech ever since then. (They were not considered free speech prior to 2011).

Trump doesn't actually care about the law or constitution, though, so he's making an unconstitutional argument that he'll lose.

Yes they were. That's the default state of speech and art. The 2011 case only provides a recent reference that makes the defense easier. It will continue be under attack. There might be some limitations to its freedom declared at some point. And then the fight will be to get it repeal the limitations. And so on.

Nope, legally they were not.

I worked in the industry since 2005. Game companies used to get sued for doing, for example, parrodies. Like...if you remember the Star Wars Kid youtube video, a couple of videogames did parodies of that, got sued by him, and lost.

Games were in the same category as action figures prior to 2011. A.k.a. if you make an action figure that references an existing IP or property, even stuff that would be considered "fair use" for say television, you could be sued for copyright infringement. Most people were of the opinion that yeah, if we took this to the supreme court, games would get full first amendment protections, stuff like parody in games would be protected (and they were right).

But until 2011 no, games did not in-practice have full free speech protections. Notably, games were considered toys, NOT speech or art on a legal level.

I'm amazed it took this long for someone to bring up the violent video games debate again, considering all the mass shootings recently. This is likely Trump being completely out-of-touch and having no idea what he's doing, as usual.

Remind me why we elected this nutcase over someone with decades of political experience?

That's what I mean. They can and will still get sued, it's just less likely now that there's an obvious recent precedent to point to as defense. There used to be anti-game precedents, but they got overwritten by this one. A new anti-game precedent could just as easily come out soon, which would override this latest one, which is what anti-game people are trying to do.
