No I’m just being an asshole because this thread started by talking about competitive games and now we’re talking about the doom of our species, which is strange.

Never mentioned video games actually. Was mostly pushing back on absurd leaps of logic.

Because I found the overall tone of the article pretentious as well as its defences.

And reread the fucking thread, I offered some mild pushback on your weird leap to social Darwinism.

Never put one forth actually. You’ve been making increasingly absolutist and melodramatic statements.

Oh that’s because I don’t really care to discuss the article itself, more the discussion around it.

Oh and I was answering your logical leap where “competition doesn’t need to be awful” became “kill the weak” in your mind.
