Comment on Gamer Logic đĄ

All inclusive statements like this are in fact lazy and stupid. Using them automaticly make you wrong, and makes you vulnerable to equally stupid retorts like not all men. They are unforced errors in public discourse.
If you want to target a vocal subset, thatâs great! Do that, not this.

I see your point.
All sweeping generalizations are, in fact, false.
That vocal subset has tarnished the term âgamerâ as a whole for me, I reflexively go to associating that label with them. There are those who game who are not part of the toxic Manosphere, but self describing as a gamer is a red flag for me.
