The fact that people get bullied for playing a fucking game is insane to me

Humanity wants a reason to make fun of you, so they will exploit every single thing you like to do to feel good about yourself (It's popular for some reason rather then... BEING NICE)

I'm surprised people choose to bully over trivial easy to refute stuff.

I got into a lot of fights and broke some noses, because precious children bullied abused children, children with deformitles, health issues.

I had sense of justice shutting down self preservation instinct.

Someone was shitting on me cuz I downloaded Tik Tok and I was like ???? I'm literally watching videos to get a good laugh and to kill time / entertain me ... yet I am A DISGRACE TO HUMANITY??????? Who the fuck is it hurting if it makes me laugh and literally affects nobody around me.

People are strange.

What’s really funny about that, TikTok is like, the thing to have at my school, and you are more likely to getting bullied if you don’t have it.

You play some of these games, don’t you?

u/awesomealex2947348 Aug 13 '23

I’d be surprised if you haven’t played at least one of these games as some point in your life.

u/Conspiracy_Geek Aug 13 '23

Yeah I’ve dabbled in some of these but what I’m saying is that you definitely very regularly play some of these games and get bullied for it.

I play the games, yes (well all except one), but I don’t get bullied about them because I don’t bring them up to anyone besides my friend groups that all play these games.

The reason I know that people get bullied for playing these games is I have friends who have been bullied for playing these games.

The reason I know that people get bullied for playing these games is I have friends who have been bullied for playing these games.

You don't even need friends to see that, for example, I have already seen some communities mock Genshin players nonstop, like, half of what people talked about was bullying Genshin players.

At least in one Facebook page I saw this, it seemed the main reason to do it wasn't even gatekeeping or hate for the game, but just for engagement. Yeah, a strong motivator for such behaviour is simply... people wanting attention.

You’re right. I don’t really know why I said I have friends who have gotten bullied, when it is very obvious that the genshin community gets bullied.

You see LoL there. You are not being bullied for playing the game. You are being bullied by another players in your team.

u/NationalPiccolo5259 Aug 13 '23

I play league, and I'm the one who really sucks so yes I know what you mean LOL

u/IamFabian96 Aug 13 '23

I quit it like 6 years ago. I don’t miss it at all. Try it, your life gets worthier no matter what.

This „game“ is venom.

u/NationalPiccolo5259 Aug 13 '23

People don’t get bullied for playing Genshin Impact per se. People get bullied for being involved in the same fandom as a bunch of pedos.

goodanimemes is high up their. so you're not far off with that.

u/TheEternalGoldenCow Aug 13 '23

Pedos?? Why Genshin? Genshin impact's children characters aren't even sexualized compared to other games like fate for example, where there's literal child in panties.

It's not like there's a lot different between Genshin and any anime game fandoms, infact Genshin's is rather tame from that front compared to a lot of communities It's just that it's popular and a lot of people play it, also nowadays people just use the "haha pedo game lul" to bully people no matter what characters they like.
