      @botherer @Jonathan_Blow I don't think it's Fox News-ish to decline to rush to defend things just because they're a kind of video game

      @leighalexander @Jonathan_Blow It *IS* Fox News-ish to say, when asked for evidence, "It's obvious!"

      @botherer @Jonathan_Blow maybe, but when ppl ask me to 'prove' they're tacky, low, ugly and dark, 'it's obvious' is sometimes my reply

      @leighalexander @Jonathan_Blow This is a discussion that began with the "obvious" negative effects of violence. That's all I was discussing.

      @botherer @jonathan_blow fair enough, yeah, I just think potential 'negative effects' are larger than the kind of 'effect on behaviour' --

      @leighalexander @Jonathan_Blow And I'm fascinated by such things, and crave seeing good evidence for them.

      @botherer me too. I just wish I saw more openness/introspection vs usual 'what about other media' defensiveness

      @leighalexander I agree. And I desperately wish gaming didn't rely so needlessly on violence. It's a pathetically immature medium.

      @botherer I get touchy because gamers don't want to be curious and examine, they just wanna get mad everytime beloved shit earns criticism.

      @leighalexander Every time someone says, "games cause X - it's obvious" without evidence, they further endanger people from real causes.

          @femfreq @botherer @leighalexander @Jonathan_Blow but that is true about all media, the news would be a bigger contributor to that syndrome
