Yup, famously before that, violence didn’t exist at all.
No but his dad and uncle were still alive.
My dad and uncle are still alive though
These guys were evil! 😯
Games of Mass Destruction
“Yo, Charlie got PONGED”
this is so obviously false it’s enfuriating coming from the head of HHS. Lots of coutnries all over the world have the same violent video games we do without the mass shootings.
“Switzerland has a comparable number of guns as we do, and the last mass shooting they had was 23 years ago,” said Kennedy, 71. “We have a mass shooting every 23 hours.”
“There are many things that happened in the 1990’s that could explain these,” he added. “One is the dependence on psychiatric drugs… there could be connections with video games and social media.”
okaaaaaaay… follow that train of thought just a liiiiiitle bit further bobby. Do you think Switzerland is stuck in the 80s or something?
train of thought
bobby
You got yourself in a cul-de-sac there. The worm ate the train long ago 😂
God damnit Bobby…
remember, that his bear cub incident was only 10-11years prior too.
Oh wow, we’re really hitting all the classics.
We’re almost back to blaming violence on D&D. Exciting times.
They’re communing with Satan, I hear!
We’ll get there, just give it time.
It’s those skateboards that done it, and the comic books the hooligans are readin. And all them lady folk wearin trousers! It’s the devil I tells ya!
Tipper Gore just got a tingling sensation in her naughty bits.
*If you saw the pre edit you’re welcome.
Aw man what’d I miss?
I wrote I’m her naughty bits instead of in because phones are dumb.
We got time travel before GTA 6
Can’t risk hinting that the policies that they push directly lead to the material conditions that cause these shootings.
When you are trying to avoid the most obvious solutions at all costs, you have to recycle the greatest hits.
Are we really restarting this conversation for the FUCKING millionth time???
There was one helluva gamer in Utah today.
I live in Utah and have a coworker that was supposed to be there for class tonight. Wild times…
How many more until he can call in a drone or an air strike?
Crime in the US peaked in 1993… when Doom first came out. Then it started dropping until recently.
Conclusion: violent video games cause a drop in crime.
But it peaked the same year Doom came out. Obviously Doom was the cause of the peak!
I should add, that as less people played Doom, violent crime reduced.
Tap for spoiler
Ok no the double down will woosh someone, here’s your /s
Doom is a game made by a cultist where the player goes to hell to interact with demons!!!
Ban the Mormon made demon killing game!

It’s called the ‘Gish Gallop.’
The best way for the Right to defeat the Left in an argument is to unload a torrent of lies, half truths, complete nonsense, and other disinformation. The idea is to overwhelm the other side’s ability to form a coherent response, because there’s too much to unpack.
Trump knows Kennedy is an idiot, but he’s a useful idiot in that he forces the Left to deal with him.
fun fact its created by the russian, its also called the FIREHOSE OF FALSEHOOD.
It’s because we have Trump to deal with that we have him to deal with.
Because Brain Worm Jr is Trumps gift to the world.

Who the fuck is downvoting this comment? Genuinely why? Is this some pro-trump instance or something? Like wtf I don’t understand what I said wrong…
You used an ableist slur for no apparent reason?
is the news supposed to NOT cover what the government is doing?
Trump listens to Fox News on the daily. He takes advice and opinions from Fox News. Fox News influences his stances and direction.
In this way, Fox News is even more powerful than Trump himself. Because Fox News influences like half the country, but also influences Trumps future actions.
So it’s not that Fox News covers the news. The issue is that Fox News creates news.
the comment wasn’t about fox news specifically, it was about news in general. like it or not, we need news agencies to cover what these people are doing.
probably people shilling for Charlie kirk.
Who do you think they’ll run in 2028?
Same reason any other politician is on the news. Because unfortunately they dictate our collective plight as Americans. And really outside the US as well.
Because they control the country and people should know what they are doing. It’s not that complicated.
Games don’t cause mass shootings.
Conservatives(policies) do.
Conservatives (reactionary fear mongering) do.
You mean the same dumbass that blames an ingredient that hasn’t been in vaccines in over 20 years for Autism, an ingredient that has never been shown to cause autism in the first place? Does anyone actually take this jackass seriously?
Bobby Kennedy must be rolling over in his grave.
Yeah unfortunately 40% of Americans do take this jackass seriously.
Well he’s right.
Until the invention of video games no one ever killed anyone ever. Then pong came along, and it was mass murder every other day.
Proof:
I’m bout to pong yo eye out, mutha flicka!
Charlie Kirk would like to have a word. Go ahead Charlie, Charlie? CHARLIE NO!!!
Charlie yes! Charlie always yes!
Oh we’re doing this one again? Good luck, things have changed since the last time you dusted this one off.
i blame mass shootings for video games
Not this again…
Back to the 90s.
Hear me out…James Tiberius Kirk was supposed to be a descendant of Charles Aswipe Kirk. Slowly these photos will fade away and be replaced by photos of Christopher Pike.
I concur
Then we’d be in a timeline where Spock dies instead, which ends up much worse. (per Strange New Worlds)
He has two kids. Maybe one of his daughters hands her last name down
Ooh, so original. Going back to those age old talking points eh. So fresh, so new. Why does anyone listen to these wind bags?
