    Yeah man, those cartels all started shortly after ET on Atari. Colombian neckties were a response to the rage induced by the game. Since then, it’s mostly been GTA and CoD that have caused violent beheadings and mass graves. I heard the last turf war was set off by a particularly long Fortnite session.

    I thought we had this talk like what, 20 years ago? They’re clearly delusional and just wanna tax people more, using this as a lame excuse.

    Well, CEOs are the ones that do the most violence. Let’s tax them.
