Does this single anecdote change the actual data evident in the photos? I'm sure you didn't wake up and think of excluding anyone, but clearly this selected for white males as many activities do. Nobody is asking anyone to feel guilty about it, cnn is just reporting the facts.
- Wolfenstein98k 3y agoTrue, it's a fact. It's also a fact that few of these people were jocks. So it obviously selected for non-jocks, maybe even for geeks. Now why didn't CNN feel the need to point that out? Why did they choose to only comment on race, as if any participant chose gaming because other people behind screens might be <outgroup race>?

- 23B1 3y agoIt's CNN selectively reporting the facts because most of the MSM now looks at everything through a culture war lens. Plenty of other lenses to pick from. A large reason old internet was so fun is that nobody gave a damn about this identity nonsense, we were too busy playing Quake 2 with ninja ropes.
- alexilliamson 3y agoWhat happens more often, MSM doing culture war gymnastics? Or people accusing MSM of culture war gymnastics (an accusation which is, itself, culture war gymnastics)?
- smabie 3y agoWell probably the latter since there's a lot more people who don't work for MSM then do?
- JKCalhoun 3y agoHa ha, yeah wondering about that rope. Keep your shirt on man!
