Comments on: German cultural vandalism http://www.bruceongames.com/2009/06/10/german-cultural-vandalism/ A veteran's view on marketing games Sat, 21 Nov 2009 09:32:52 -0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: Bruce http://www.bruceongames.com/2009/06/10/german-cultural-vandalism/comment-page-1/#comment-4650 Bruce Fri, 12 Jun 2009 06:00:24 +0000 http://www.bruceongames.com/?p=1906#comment-4650 Mark, if you (or anyone else) wants to use this article in any way to help prevent cultural vandalism please feel free to do so. You can just cut and paste it or translate it, whatever you want. No need to link to it here, no need to include the photo or video and no need to even give me credit. Protecting our culture is more important than my copyright. If my German was better I would be sending it to all 16 interior ministers and every game journalist in Germany.

I am trying to make the point, as strongly as possible, that we are experiencing destruction of culture by ignorant people. Suppressing video gaming in Germany today is exactly the same as Nazi book burning. Sorry if the picture offends.

Anyway, over here in Germany there are elections this year and it's likely that the coalition won't be elected again. So most of the stuff going on must be seen as a desperate way fishing for votes by activating fears. Second, understand that Germany is overreacting when it comes to violence as it's a horrible part of this countries history. I agree to Ian when it comes to the picture.

Comparing your opponents to Hitler is a lazy debating tactic, and when you're referring to Germany, it's also in poor taste. Besides, the facts are clearly on your side, so why stoop to this level?
