From EA (Electronic Arts) Games, to Kyle Rittenhouse; "We received a report about your account or profile name. It may be the name that you created on another platform. - This name breaks our Positive Play Charter because you may have used words or phrases that harm others or negatively disrupt the game" ... EA introduced/updated, in June of 2021, their Positive Play Charter with this; "an updated set of community guidelines with clear consequences for players who engage in racist, sexist, homophobic, and abusive acts in our games and channels."

Do adults on our political side play computer games?
Yes.
Gamergate red-pilled a lot of young adults and helped put them on our side.
Of course they do. Games are like a universal pastime now. If it wasn't for a corporate controller like EA and a few others there would already be massive electronic sports by now.
I don’t have time for stupid chit like video games.
As a conservative, yes, I play video games. I don’t play these sorts of video games, but I do play.
If you don’t mind me asking, app how old are you?
I used to like Call of Duty when it came out a looong time ago and based on WW2.
I’m in my 40s. Grew up climbing trees and riding bikes, but I started playing on computers in the 90s and eventually became a computer gamer. I enjoy mostly strategy (4X) and simulation games. I don’t do much in the way of competitive multi-player gaming.
“The More Complex the Mind, the Greater the Need for the Simplicity of Play”
Having observed this behavior amongst some of the most intelligent, brilliant and fascinating people I’ve known, I’d say it’s true. Not universally so, but for many of them.
Anecdotally EA has a crap reputation for many gamers. I won’t embellish on it other than they would be the “Joe Biden and Democrats” of the gaming community.
I’m 50 and have played computer games most of my life. Some people golf. Some people fish. And some people play computer games.
... This one does.
To be fair, I have so many chronic health conditions that I’m hardly able to get out of the house, and I’m only 34.
A lot of the people I meet playing some of these games are right-leaning, particularly in World of Tanks, Call of Duty, Gears of War, and Fallout.
Games are highly addictive, so I quit when enraptured by “Tanks”.
;)
The game I play I was just thinking about creating a character named Let’s Go Brandon. But I’m sure that would get reported by some Karen.
My user-name could be “Knights’ Stable”, Charles Martel, or King Jan III Sobieski...
Use references to Anthony Fauci... He’s killed far more people.
Use “Writtenhaus” as a game name. Problem solved :-)
It has been reported and VERIFIED that 'TITLEIST Golf' has an absolute ban on imprinting "Let’s Go Brandon" on customized balls! The company has a website where you can order their golf balls with a customized message, frequently for a gift, advertising or specific identification. Of late, that web site has refused this phrase with the explanation of "Sorry, one or more of the words you have chosen cannot be used. Please see our Terms and Conditions to learn more about what we will imprint."
Further exploration in their (Acushnet) Terms and Conditions gives this; "Acushnet Company reserves the right to reject orders for imprints on our products that may, in our sole discretion, be inconsistent with our company values or brand identity, including, but not limited to logos, designs and/or personalizations that are negative in nature, advocate violence or illegal activity, or are slurs, hateful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, vulgar, obscene or pornographic."
So what is the trigger that bans "Let’s Go Brandon"?
I sure like the flight simulators... :)
