   Humorous thoughts of the day:
"People of Italy, the French army is here to break your chains," Napoleon proclaimed, "our only quarrel is with the tyrants who have enslaved you."  -Napolean Bonaparte     


Console gaming reflects and highlights the great mass social conditioning experiment that active in world culture (but particularly pronounced here in North America), reflecting the aims of making high levels of industrialized violence palatable through simulation.Which also leads to the sociological status of the Western view of conflict resolution being handled by violent means, could be a growing consensus by future generations?  Or this is to say that future generations involved in simulated violent gaming, might see more often that potentially violent impasses are best resolved strategically through violent outcomes as given to the conditions of a simulation which suggests that these are the only solutions provided...as they are patently designed integrally into the system that in most circumstances forbids any other outcome. 

 Could we potentially expect to see a more violently driven society in the future?!...keep in mind with right to carry laws that we now have infamous examples of conflict resolution in movie theaters culminating with a man shooting another man to death not that it should but unfortunately if I hadn't stated it some minds would revolve around these sorts of suspicions...both perpetrator and victim were white.



Watch out for Cosplay!  :)  

Sadly you may laugh but watch the documentary The Act of Killing...notice how former death squad leaders like to disassociate themselves to the reality of their own actions by having felt an accomplice that there were a given reality to any of these roles.  That is the feeling that they might have an alibi for their violent behavior.  Sickos running around pretending they are slaying vampires?!  Dehumanization is actively used as part of the obvious equation in severing empathetic link between victim and victimizer, generally doesn't work out over the long haul so well.  It seems for now potentially something of fiction in a way doesn't it?!
