This is what I got out of the video: Someone who dislikes video games is saying *maybe if I make a wild. unsupported accusation people will believe me without thinking twice"

While I don't like the guy who made the video (he curses way too much for my taste) I agree completely with his assessment: Dude who make the accusation, don't write trash like this.

If that was true, I'd had died decades ago, because I've been playing games since I was 4 years old.

Seriously, I wonder who it's possible that there are ppl with such sheer levels of stupidity. Do they even believe what they are saying themselves? Sheesh.....

They give bad vision (back when I used CRT monitors) and carpal tunnel syndrome (living victim here, but it's curable with vitamins), but I don't think cancer is a valid claim myself.

If that was true, I'd either be hospitalized, or dead.

The media has always tried to demonize video games into something they aren't. They used to be like that with TV and Movies, but now they eventually have to learn genuine good can come from games.

And if this was true, there would not be a single South Korean left alive.
