Not forgetting, more like I don't care. Thompson rallied behind conservative ideas of over-protection and demonization of the "new" thing. As a kid I didn't care about left, right, whatever the fuck. It was conservative fear mongering nonsense at its core. Anita was a money grubbing whore herself, but she wasn't calling for the ban on games necessarily. She wanted shit changed and "improved". Back then, people like Thompson wanted the hobby put in the dirt.
Hard not to grow up with ideals in spite of that conservative push.

Oh absolutely. Like I said, lots of people are just doing false flagging nonsense. But it's like the one anon already posted, the idea of acting like a retard enough that you eventually create a community that genuinely starts to believe it. Whether it's money, dumbasses doing it for kicks, doesn't really matter at the end of the day. Shit's exhausting and absolutely pushes me away from conservative ideas, even if there's genuine merit.
