Violence as Genetic Need in Gaming

Okay, so we're still talking about the video game violence. I went through in the first part what I'm going in with, and I think it's pretty fucking sound. Come at me. Tell me I'm wrong. You know, our old selves, and I mean hundreds, thousands of years old, we lived a violent life all the time, us men, all day, every day. And now we're soft and cushy and pencil pushers, me included. There are some that are out and live a rough and tumble life, but even those rough and tumble lives are a lot softer than they used to be. So the simulated violence is kind of our genetic need for that stuff because violence was built in us and for survival reasons. So we need it. And this is just our cope with our soft lives.
