For as long as video games have existed, they’ve sent American parents into a frenzy of fear. However, there’s no evidence linking video games to violent crime. #truTV #AdamRuins

The real link to violent crimes is access to fire arms and security to cars and public school areas and of course, access to help for people with mental health problems
The book of Judges makes me more volatile 😂
Honestly, we should be more at tentative to the seizure risk caused by flashing lights in media like video games or TV. Ill
am i the only one who was tripping on Ernie's accent not being so deep on George Lopez?! 😮😮😮
In case you haven't noticed adam ruins everything is just another liberal rag
Blame! Blame! Blame! That's literally the only thing our system does. Blame both those who have absolutely nothing to do with the problems and those who do, than even try to fix the problems. And if it's not just the Politician, then it's also big corporation proprietors, or those lying lairs who want to get into those high Charisma positions like Editor-in-chief.
The same thing happened with many problems too. Goverment and media blame many crimr and societal problem on TV, Comic, Game and entertainment. However they refuse to admit the bad effect of social media on normal people, because the lobbyist keep fedding the game.
Games are addictive. It makes you less productive. I literally had Withdrawal symptoms when stopping to play games. Please dont encourage people to do so. Yes it might not make you more violent but it takes away innumerable hours off your life that you could have spent doing something productive
And another thing is that, this isn’t the first thing we blamed for being a cause of kids acting violent or acting out.
In the 1950’s, we blamed comic books, with the book “Seduction Of The Innocent” by Friedric Wertham pushing the idea that comic books were a serious cause of Juvenile Delinquency.
Then after that, we blamed Rock music for why Kids acted Violent.
And now, well, ya know what they say. 3rd times the charm! Now we blame violent video games for it, even when there’s no solid link.
Is it video games that cause mass shootings or the prevalence of guns?
👏👏👏👏👏
So Adam is not just a nerdy know-it-all who loves correcting people, he also like gaming? Why do I hear boss music?
My religion teacher in 8th grade tried to convince us that violent video games cause violence and my whole class immediately shut her down
3:38
In regards to video games, my stance is that I do things in video games that I would never do in real life
2:47 that does make sense since developers are PlayStation studios have to go are the games like Gran Turismo 7 and EA NFL game.
3:33 huh? So President Donald Trump says more people say the level of violence on video games is really shaping young people's thoughts and this could literally get some exclamation for this we need some answers on them.
Man I can’t believe reaper666 got swatted by Adam. People just suck nowadays
You know what I agree with everything that Adam says. Video games are not to blame for violence. Bullies are the number one reason why people are violent. Some people get bullied way too many times to the point where the victim becomes so stressed out the victim becomes violent with other people who tease him or her. And long before video games even existed there was a lot of comic books and novel books and even movies that had violence in it. And even before the invention of cameras and television we had many wars during the middle ages. Even back in the middle ages people used to fight each other with bows and arrows axes and swords. And after that there was the first world war and the second world war and the Vietnam war. So violence has been around for thousands of years even before video games were invented. This planet has a very long history of violence and bullying. So if you're a parent and your kids become violent that's because of the bullies not the video games.
Friendly reminder that even violent movies and TV shows, even books and comics were scapegoated for violence before video games even existed. We even had many wars before the first video game ever. We have a long history of violence.
Parkland shooting sentencing just finished…. The shooter seemed to be more influenced by Trump than violent video games…the irony.
Doom = bad. Fox news = good.
I love the Adam version of ‘DOOM’
Just a reminder that President Biden has denounced videos games as a cause for violence many times in his career.
I can’t help but notice how much the doctor looks like senator armstrong
Please, whenever I play Doom, I feel like I've just killed an army y'know, DEMONS like a 90s action movie hero! What's more likely to send me into a violent rage is people attacking a great movie like Prey BEFORE IT'S EVEN OUT!!!
Can we get a doom mod based about this video
Undertale
I love the episode but also the reason why there is less gun deaths in Japan is because of its super strict gun laws
3:31 lol 3
3:01 lol 2
2:03 lol
1:34 Correlation does not mean causation it could be because more homogeneous populations play more video games.
1:39 this fact is kind of biased, as Japan has heavy gun laws and it is very well regulated, ironically thanks to the US
