I Believe... [Video Games do not Cause Terrorism]

By Don Hall

…that copying and pasting legal documents does not make you an attorney nor does it give additional weight to your bullshit.

…that nothing will be more satisfying than when the iGen kids start turning thirty-five and the poltergeist of mortality begins to haunt them.

…that real activists pick a stand, an issue, a problem, and focus on that. Fake activists are outraged by the next viral moment and move quickly to perform some more outrage the next day about the next thing. Real activists work; fake activists perform for acknowledgement.

…that the best offshoot competition from the Olympiad of Victim Status is the Woke White Person Tournament on display online. It’s like a contortion competition of values with the winners of the first acting as judges of the second.

…that blaming video games and movies on mass shooters is like blaming the election of Donald Trump on the Russians.
