Dear internet,

I like discussing political and social themes of video games. I like talking about the themes of xenophobia and survival in Xenoblade X, or capitalism and tribalism in Fallout. If you don't that's totally fine, but if you're gonna bitch and moan about how-
-I shouldn't talk about this stuff in video games and that they're "just games" then go fuck yourself. Video games are a legitimate art form that should be analyzed and dissected for deeper meanings. They aren't just some toy that you " just play with". Sure gameplay is very-
-Important to a game but it's not mutually exclusive to the themes and messaging of a video game. Games have the capacity to embue relevant themes and subject matter within them. If you don't like to focus on that then that's fine, but don't butch about how analyzing games-
This way ruins them.

Sincerely,
Daddy Sakurai
