How come President Trump and all the other Republicans blame the use of violence in video games as a link to all of the mass shootings that occur in this country? Mind you that video games are popular all over the world and in countries such as China or Japan where video games are culture and many involve violence but we never seem to hear about mass shootings in those countries or even countries in Europe.
Real simple.
We no longer teach or value tolerance. If you are taught at a very early age that you can disagree with someone without wanting to call them names, hit them, or shoot them, then you have the classic definition of tolerance.
Today, in America, we have university professors, some high school teachers, many bigoted an intolerant parents from the left, who simply refuse to tolerate others who have a different outlook on life and problem-solving.
There was a time when someone promoted that government requires someone receiving assistance do something for that assistance and that government had a responsibility to train them and give them skills (hell there was a time when school was required to teach life skills) to survive without the government subsistence.
Now, they scream racism. They scream at each other if THIER ideas and THIER ways are not followed. They get this behavior reinforced from childhood by having participation trophies and told that they didn't have to do good to feel good about themselves.
They have been given the green light to have casual sex and abortions at very young ages and told that they should never allow anyone to tell them that is wrong.
Hell, they proclaim loudly that they speak their minds, even though they have not been asked their opinion; not realizing that speaking their minds is just a three-year-old justification for acting badly and they go bat shit crazy if you tell them what YOU think that behavior is wrong
YOU will not find that kind of moral and social decay in other countries. Now couple what with Hollywood making movies that are over the top violent while cementing in the cognitive dissonance of the actors saying that violence is bad (While being surrounded by armed guards).
There are a thousand examples of social decay in this country that you won't find in others. To even try to compare them is ludicrous.
