Are video games killing human civilization?

Postby Atamzsiktrop » Wed Jun 22, 2016 7:35 pm

Recently I've discovered this video and it completely touched me. What are you thoughts on that problem? I think it's becoming worse and worse every year, to the point where soon children won't go outside and meet their friends at all. I used to play a lot of video games when I was younger but now I just feel like it's a waste of time, but some of my friends weren't so lucky and never escaped the "games horror" which completely killed any social behaviours in them - most of them lost their jobs, I'm pretty sure they'll never form a family (too busy for that, playing CS:GO all day) and they also became primitive and aggressive. They don't care for their health - which causes fat problem - they don't even wash themselves. They're like cavemen but instead of doing anything productive, they just play games. It seems like over years video games became more of a drug and more and more people become addicted to it.

As much as I love Haven & Hearth I think video games should be banned and monitored to some degree, honestly. Soon it might be too late.

No. Some portion of people will be too stupid to do any activity in moderation. We can not ban or monitor all activity. Even if we can do this, we should not doing it. Some people are failure and we will let them fail.

I think it's that lady that brings the mountain dew and hot pockets home. Not 100% sure though.
“We still, alas, cannot forestall it-
This dreadful ailment's heavy toll;
The spleen is what the English call it,
We call it simply, Russian soul.”

This is third of family. Whole family is this woman, the child living with this woman (you), and the entity that gives this woman money to buy food (probably the government).
