Gamers tend to be one group of people who are almost unanimously right-wing. Yes, you'll find the odd Lefty here and there, but most tend to be more conservative than those who aren't gamers. The only conclusion that I can come to is that these people grew up in a world where meritocracy was at the forefront. It didn't matter who was behind the keyboard, but identity didn't matter AT ALL. If the person was good - they were accepted. If the person was bad - they were rejected. It's a flawless system that caused individuals to strive for excellence or to opt out.

Chase Reyes
Most competitive male environments will be right wing by default. Sports, martial arts, vidya games
Luis Cook
Nice demon face. Making your presence obvious
Cooper Barnes
They're still mostly young white males who are socially cut off enough not to care if their views are palatable to Stacey or not.

This. Gamers are usually narcisistic reactionaries. Since the politization and normalization of videogames, gamers became the most eclectic group since you have hardcore SJWs and white knights in one extreme and deus vult nazi larpers on the other.
Dominic Smith
Gamers were largely apolitical then being right-wing is a result of the left trying to censor and ruin games with they politically correct insainity. >all games need niggers >all women must be ugly butch lesbians >historical accuracy is racist >bad guys must be Nazi like white males >we need more incompetent POC developers
Aiden Long
Nope, commie gamer here.
Play the commie teams in games when I can.
Adrian Garcia
You're wrong OP. Simple as that.
Grayson Martin
>right wingers say videogames cause violence, need to be shut down This was actually mostly the democrats in the USA saying this in the 90s.
Benjamin Cruz
The dems' video game violence movements and the Christian movements that (rightly) said it was satanic are confused in the mind of the retarded game addicted atheist
Jayden Robinson
Gamers are cucks. Have you ever been to /v/? Its constant muh Jow Forums
Jack Morales
Because you shitstains keep coming over to our board to whine about jewish conspiracies in games.
A JEWISH GUY! OH NO! BETTER SMASH MY DREAMCAST OR ELSE I MIGHT LET A BLACK GUY FUCK MY WIFE!
Nolan Williams
You only prove my point
There's a direct gaming to fedora tier atheist to pagan pipeline and games are behind the indoctrination
Owen Young
>not getting pussy is equal to systemic oppression by a government. Gamers are worse than niggers when it comes to being victims. Gamers deserve to be bullied into submission by chad and Stacy.
Gabriel Brown
>neo-marxist infiltration = jewish conspiracy oy vey why so antisemitic?
Brandon Turner
If you had spent any meaningful time of /v/ you would know we call out bullshit political pushing in games constantly. We don't need Jow Forums help.
Fuck off user and stay the fuck away from /v/. We're so fucking tired of political bullshit muching up our board. Remember Horizon Zero Dawn? Remember how much you shitters tried to complain about it? None of you played it, you would be all about how "redpilled" HZD was if you did.
>Martriarchal tribe are mud hut savages and every other tribe looks down on them >Patriarchal tribes have built massive cities and started to study and develop advanced technologies
But of course because the protagonist is female and there's a racially diverse cast [this is explained by a plot point] it MUST be a ZOG conspiracy!
Brody Walker
Could be. I just think it's adherence to truth with little concern about social repercussions.
Leo Bell
It doesn't matter when you all reject God
Nicholas Reed
>Why are gamers always right-wing? Fucking bait. Game developers are almost always liberals/leftists. The scene itself has neve been as lefty as it is today. Full of SJWs, little Maos, "anti-racist", tranny, religion of peace garbage. Developers get literally fired for wrong think, like the sound designer of Subnautica.
Gamers are some of the goodest goys you fucking mongoloid, watch any streamer or youtube gamer their all lefty faggots and this is a reflection of how pozzed the vidya industry has become in the last 8 or so years
RTS's, other strategic/micromanaging games and random titles like dark souls have most of the rightwingers
I found in high school, in a club that was like a more casual debate team, if there was one thing gamers/nerds and chads typically agreed on, it was politics.
Evan Evans
Is there a competitive sport or semi-sport where the players mostly lean left?
The NBA does but that is entirely by virtue of racial tribalism, nothing really policy related.
Anything competitive and merit based seems to attract a conservative mindset.
Tyler Ortiz
games are the rock and roll of our time: Old people just won't ever get it.
Ian Gutierrez
there are many left gamers i am one of them
Evan Wright
DEVELOPERS yes. Gamers themselves? You're DEAD FUCKING WRONG! The mainstream shit is faked and pushed by these commie devs because they THINK that the mainstream is left. The truth is, they don't realize the righty's are pushed into silence.
Gabriel Reed
How do you play video games without a brain? That's amazing!!!
Jaxon Baker
What's that? There isn't enough political discussion on /v/? I'll be sure to come over and help then.
I'm a Communist gamer and I really like Hearts of Iron IV. I think that community attracts lots of Nazis and Communists (it's about WWII alternate history, so it should be obvious why).
Natsoc is the opposite of narcissism. Narcissism brought us the enlightenment and individualism.
Nicholas Fisher
almost every gamer ive met online was far right and gun loving
Jonathan Ross
Absolutely fucking not. Have you ever played in ANY gaming scene? It's the same shit as everywhere. Unless you want to imply that most people are normies that just want to be left the fuck alone, and the far left bullies are just a screeching minority themselves, then I'd agree.
Nolan Taylor
Good goy buy the Saturn, collect the golden rings of Saturn and control MaSonic the hedgehog who's head is even shaped like a 666
Jackson Ward
gaming is based on pure necessity. Leftism is built on the separation of man from necessity. If you were a left wing gamer you wouldn't ever become competitive or good because you'd do strategies or things that do not achieve the main goal of the game. In dota you would play carry KOTL, for example.
There is no oppression points in gaming... being a brown person gives you no benefit
Blake Jackson
I think it is just that lefty faggots tend to stream more.
Asher Campbell
First off most gamers are children.
If we are talking about the subset of adults who play video games its a different story. But they are far from " conservative" at least in the american form of the word.
They are mostly male and white so that may at first make it easy to claim it as a conservative dominated hobby, however that's a poor predictor given that most mainstream masculine hobbies are white and male dominated.
They tend to skew younger, more nerdy. Both of which point to a more liberal slant compared to most other masculine hobbies.
They are also mostly consuming media produced by coastal liberals.
They maybe pro meritocracy, but they expect that enforcement from a top down level. They are renowned for their disrespect of copyright laws and constantly form communities to disperse their knowledge and resources for free.
Their previous outsider status caused them to heavily overlap with other outsider communities. Intact being a gamer is a better predictor of being a furry than being a conservative. Being a gamer is more predictive of being a member of the lgbt than being a conservative.
Really if you want your statement that to hold true you would have to restrict the population of gamers to people into historical games like civilization 5.
Who the fuck are gamers? Are you talking about the majority of the population, people who play videogames?
Henry Johnson
As a gamer I often played fantasy games that have rigid hierarchies kings rulers etc.
Every strategy game is two sides clashing at each other hating the other.
Games draw from folklore for inspiration.
Maybe it's the conflict. I dont know. Been playing games for 20 years.
Jordan Mitchell
>right wing maybe, if you mean social/racial realist
>conservative No.
Evan Smith
r u sure about that? i worked in the game industry for quite some time, seemed to be overwhelmingly shitlib
Lucas Taylor
Rock and roll was about sex and drugs though. Vidya is all about sobriety and virginity. Trap music is unironically the rock and roll of our time
James Edwards
That's because commie neofags have infested it.
Robert Sanders
who gives a shit what they are? people who label themselves as "gamers" are most likely betas with little to no skills to provide to society, and most likely won't be breeding anyway.
a literal who gives a fuck about their opinions?
Nathan Fisher
>Trap music is unironically the rock and roll of our time
there have been at least 4-5 of these threads that I've noticed in just a couple of hours.
What's the shill angle here? Do they think they've found a crack in whatever they perceive as a defense? Trying to put Jow Forums against /v/? Nazi-tism vs. 60 Autisms Per Second?
Also, the appearance that they're "hard right" is stupid. They don't want fucking politics in their games. There is a reason a certain gate happened, and it was because people tried to inject their version of an agenda into fucking everything. They outright just want to be left alone and play vidya, & escape from the politics that they see injected into everything else every hour of every day. That's not politics- that's everyone else conflating "wanting to be left the fuck alone with the political shit" with a legitimate political standpoint.
Aaron Rogers
hes probably trollin but if you go to any anime cons of vidya events theres a surplus of sjws and fags but everyone stays to their own clique mostly
They aren't. They just don't give a fuck about PC shit. You're either better or you're not, it's simple.
Hudson Ortiz
Now try not counting mobile games. Playing bejeweled doesn't make you a fucking gamer, like watching shrek doesn't make me a film nerd.
Samuel Price
GamerGate redpilled a bunch of gamers. Fast forward a few years and a lot of gamers have abandoned leftist ideas.
Ayden Myers
>Gamers tend to be one group of people who are almost unanimously right-wing. lol have you ever visited /v/?
Bentley James
That's all Canadians and paid fucking shills though
Jose Allen
Has it ever occurred to you that most people don't define their life based on politics and don't have to take political views on a subject just because you do?
Jeremiah Wright
lol no. >Be some young adult guy >Like playing as a muscular dude with swords or guns >Like sexy girlz >Le evil feminist libtard comes >Hello, I am Veronica, I don't like your hobby >Veronica changes the hobby >le fuuuuuu This is the most objective answer you're gonna get kid, don't bother with anything else.
lol no, Iceland is very free but can be turned on its head to become a pawn of America in no time you know? America is a king but Israel is the chess player. Canada a simple bishop.
