What's with this false equivalency newfags like to push? Holla Forums tier interboard drama is quite a new thing, though interboard conflict has existed for years. People hated Holla Forums and called it shit because newfags slowly turned it into "Holla Forums with occasional video games" and no discussion could be made on the largest vidya board on the site, not because it shilled relentlessly on other boards and tried to shut down posters who didn't like it.
The only board that actually did what you think was Holla Forums, and that was from post Chanology newfags and not an actual malicious attempt to create a sterile torture chamber like Holla Forums has and like you think Holla Forums tried to do.

Well I'm sorry Slavoj. People are just people.

And? Even if you're just talking about people who identify as gamers, they don't all hold the same views about games or society in general. Holla Forums isn't the same as neogaf or reddit and so on. Almost all kinds of media are filled with mass-marketed garbage that people would do well to be at least a little critical of. This isn't some shocking revelation. But I don't think gamers are some uniquely terrible sect out of any of the other kinds of people that identify themselves with products/media.
I mean ,Christ, if you're going to go with this angle, at least make some kind of argument beyond low-effort shitposting about "gamers being cancer".
