Defending video gaming against the haters

There has been a minor trend where people are saying that grown men in particular , playing video games is lame. I say doing anything too much is harmful. However, I will point out that many of the people saying this are the same type of people that will spend hours watching the kardashians to learn makeup tips.

Watching TV is somewhat of a brain dead activity. Again , it's fine , but if you're gonna compare video games are better for you. Studies have shown it keeps your mind more sharp that's why many nursing homes have video games. Playing Tetris after a brain injury actually helps heal a person.

I also view this current movement , which isn't very significant , to be honest, as a further attack on the idea that leisure is something to be fought again. Which , in and of itself is elite propaganda.

The good news about certain people saying this is that they filter themselves out as good partners. That being said , if you are ignoring your partner to play video games for a long period of time , that is a mistake and it's cruelty in and of itself. All things in balance padawans.
