Playing games, and admitting you enjoy playing games, is becoming more socially acceptable for better or worse. Combine that with lots of interconnectivity via MMOs and social media, it's easier than ever to find people that make you think "WTF are you smoking?", especially when you delve into zero barrier-to-play games like WarFrame. I'm in my late 30s and friend, this stuff isn't new, but its just becoming more obvious and easier to see. It's only going to get worse, so brace yourself.

As for assholes thinking they know better, these SJWs aren't the first, and they won't be the last. From the 1950s with McCarthyism and Elvis-being-too-sexy-to-show-below-the-waist-on-tv, to the 60s with the Comic Code Authority, 70s where Dungeons and Dragons turning children into devil worshipping acolytes, the 80s with the "Moral Majority" and the crusade against "inappropriate" music (fuck you Tipper Gore), assholes have been trying to tell others how to have fun for decades, and that's just recently in the US. Now a new generation of narcissistic, authoritative know-it-alls want to exert their control, and tell people how to enjoy themselves and what and how to think. It's just important to remain firm, stay confident in your beliefs, and don't let the fuckers get you down.

P.S. Just wait another 10-20 years when these assholes are running for office. That'll be fun times. I hope you're registered to vote and remember to vote in local elections regardless of whatever your political affiliation is.
