    You can admit you didn’t really give it much thought. I guess doubling down also works, maybe they’ll mod it into a VR GTA clone MMO for lulz

      Well no, I didn’t give it much thought it’s a comment on lemmy, not a manifesto.

      Creating a school shooter sim may be easy, but modding a political “game” built to highlight the horror of school shooting into something “funny” that reverses its premise entirely will make a headline.

        If people are letting hypothetical trolls control their actions then the trolls already won and they don’t even exist.

            You’re suggesting it would be unwise to make a game to spread awareness about school shooters and gun control because people might make distasteful modifications of it where you play as a school shooter. That’s what I mean by hypothetical trolls.
