Terrorising the Terrorists in Counter Strike

About 4 years ago, the EU Counter Terrorism Coordinator investigated Counter Strike and found this. I cover it in this video because I found it interesting

"The right-winf extremist news portal the Daily Stormer released its *modification* of the first-person shooter game Doom 2 which lets the player fight against a Jewish World Conspiracy." None of this reads to me, like they are putting the blame on Doom 2 as a whole, nor are they implying it causes violence in general. Honestly never heard of that mod before, but it sure is bizzare to see something like that. Still, it's less so they blame the game itself and rather blame its players, which is just wrong regardless.

Some food for thought, Steve Bannon (known for such things as founding a neo nazi magazine, and later running Trump's campaign, and getting arrested for money laundering) used to run a World of Warcraft gold farming operation. Through this, he learned how many gamers are lonely, isolated guys, and realized he could weaponize that. His intent was ultimately to influence gamers, through the use of memes and spam bots spreading propaganda, to radicalize them against his opposition. Seriously. His company was called Internet Gaming Entertainment, and he himself credits Gamergate with bringing people onto his websites and "then they get turned on to Trump." He was also vice president of Cambridge Analytica when they got into that scandal for harvesting people's data. He supports far right extremist groups in Europe, and I almost forgot to mention it wasn't just once, he got arrested for money laundering twice. That report definitely missed the mark hard in some places, but Bannon is living, openly-admitting proof of gamers being targeted for radicalization. It's something I think you've done a really good job pointing out - we all know they goofed up on describing counter-strike, but you're right that it doesn't mean the report is all junk. There's legitimate issues that are good to shed some light on here.

I'm not so sure about how this is publicly spoken about in other countries, but in Brazil, there's still some politicians saying that violent games should be banned or somehow controlled here and there. In 2008, CS and Everquest were banned at the same time for being "harmful to consumers' health". In the article from that time, they mention CS being about "police and bandits", and that "it impresses with its realism". They saw the map "cs_rio" and thought that was it. Nothing else. They even mention that "in the game, dr*g traff*ckers" from Rio kidnap and take 3 UN representatives to a hill". They also mention the "forbidden funk" music that plays on the radio on that map. LOL Today, we still see some politicians defending this stance. The curious thing about this is that nobody mentions video games when there's power abuse coming from the police. Is that only applicable to bandits and outlaws, then? It's clear what their intentions are. They are completely clueless, and it's ridiculous.

Most of the standard model like Elite, FBI, SWAT, and Balkan which are actually a standard local T/CT agent also became a paid agent only.

YAY philip made another video. I was wondering whether you map for cs2? Are you still trying to learn Hammer 2 or gave up for new generations to pick up instead? And if you do map for cs2 will you make short video explaining small segments of the new editor?

Suggesting a link between loneliness and violence seems absurd

[@Derpynewb]

its not absurd though? Mass killers and suicidal people have a similar phyche. When you dont care about living anymore, your morals can completely fall apart. nothing matters at all if your dead. And if you feel like killing yourself morals stop meaning anything. Humans are also social creatures, we depend on the opinions of others for our sanity. Human beings cannot tolerate total isolation and/or being completely shunned. Lonliness and fucked up thoughs have a co relation, not causation. Other factors determine how people deal with these things. Thats why suicidal people dont commit terrorism. When you are lonely, depending om how and why, it can make you value people less. as you cant relate to someome and empathise with someone you cant communicate with.

KZbin on my phone is bugged, cant edit comments. I should have said, most suicidal people domt turn into terrorists.

[@texmj123]

what do you mean? Most mass shooters are definitely lone wolves

tbh i think gaming is less of an echo chamber than any other online platform is. every online platform is trying to match similar people together, only in games its trying to do this if at all, by skill, meaning in almost every online interaction you get vastly different kinds of people interacting with each other from vastly different cultures. i honestly feel like i have a better sense of whats going on in the world because i have friends all over it who tell me their personal experiences. in fact its happened more often that my parents tell me about stuff theyve read about a country i have multiple friends in and they dont know what im talking about because foreign media is misrepresenting the issue

Social outcasts being prone to violence is a very well studied topic.
