Like… really? Oof.
Yeah, no. I'd rather take some harmless funni fake coins than funnel money to one of the most disgusting existing industries destroying my own health and so many lives through their anti-science campaigns.
Im sure you meant to type "than" and not "that" but it fits either way except for the anti science campaigns
The gaming industries may have problems, but it's not anywhere in the same range as something like the tobacco industry.
But yeah, I meant than.
Smoking is still less embarrassing than Fortnite and you get cancer either way
Honestly no.
Hating on a thing just because it became insanely popular and it spawned an anti-trend because people became annoyed with its popularity is cringe. Fortnite isn't a bad game, many people were just annoyed by kids who played it (which may also be caused by generational hate).
And smoking is just dumb. "You get cancer either way" is also just… literally wrong.
I see you're an avid reader
