I'd prove you right but that would be awkward for you as a leftie.

Left-handed repression is a real thing but this is a ludicrous claim.

Right-handed people dont even blink at right-washing like Link. They don't know how fucked it is to have all the left-handed desks at university to be unusably broken, if there are any at all.

And consider the artificial difficulty of Dark Souls for lefthanded people. We're relegated to the fucking shield hand? Righthanded people can play the game normally, we lefties can only do damage by parrying.

1-2 generations ago left handed people were treated 'pretty badly' here. My grandfather was taught not to use his dominant hand and was ashamed when people questioned him about it or caught him using his left hand. My law teacher had his hand ripped with a ruler throughout elementary school

Happened to me too. I still naturally do new tasks with the left, even though I write with my right thanks to conditioning.

The entire world is still being engineered for the righties, and lefties were often persecuted in the West and still are in other regions just for being themselves. I demand reparations!

I wouldn't say we were discriminated against, but the church did believe that lefties were devil spawn, and actively taught people to do everything "sanitary" with their right hand.

That's because before toilet paper, men in that region wiped their ass with their left hand and kept their right hand for business. A left-handed person would be physically incapable of entering into business agreements without soiling the other person's hand, which is why things turned out that way. They were basically seen as "cursed". It's a practice not entirely eliminated even today:

Libelous statement by a righty. Typical.

As a left handed gamer I can no longer standby while such horrible oppression continues to plague our society.
