Jokes on you, thanks to the war in Iran I can’t afford guns or violent video games

    are the downvotes because people think that boomers dont think this way, or because people dont agree and dont know how this all works.

    I downvoted because:

    • The cartoon is implying that it's not guns, but video games that cause problems
    • Making sweeping statements about boomers is as bad as making sweeping statements about black people or gay people. It's an enormous group of diverse people, many of whom are progressive.
    • There actually was a big pushing trying to say that video games were the cause of all the violence.

    I mean, even if video games would make someone more violent, that person can't do much damage if it doesn't have access to guns.
