In in the US. I mean flame away, but I’m not happy about the observation I’m making, I’m not saying “given what I would do in a video game, it justifies what people would do in real life.” I’m saying “given what I would do it a video game, I think I see more clearly the choices people are making in real life.” life shouldn’t be a video game, but I think to a lot of high level leaders trying to compartmentalize it becomes one. This is monstrous in the real world with obviously real consequences. But I think too many people say “obviously government X wouldn’t act in a monstrous way” but the video game analogy helps you see the incentives and thus, why they would/do. | ||

Except this isn't an argument because "a video game" isn't a real thing. There are a diverse range of specific video game titles, but they are incredibly broad in content and scoring system. What specifically are you actually talking about? | ||
