Saying N64 is the best console is some Boomer talk if I ever heard it 🤔
I don't know the right word either, it's probably something like "PR Automaton". "Politician"?
This is one hair away from "fake gamer girl" gatekeeping bullshit.
Boomers were on average 40 years old when the N64 released. Not everyone older than you is a boomer, millennial.
She's as old as the majority demographic of this message board the fuck you going on about?
Oh really? Does talking about the game you´re playing on your twitter account makes you less professional?
Maybe she uses that terms because she plays the game don´t you think?
you make it sound like she needs your vote of approval to like video games
There's nothing wrong with Lulu.
Though the fact she hasn't picked up Thresh makes me question if she's willing to make the hard choices to do what's necessary in a crisis of national security and/or a promotional series with a paste-eating autofill ADC.
N64 is a console for millenials. Boomers would be playing arcades, if that.
Some people are so obvious in their hate but they still try to hide it by writing long paragraphs which criticize her, just so it seems like they have a valid argument. Save yourself the trouble of typing all these paragraphs and us reading them, and commit to calling her a "fake gamer girl" instead of doing all these word gymnastics.
She's 30 and talking about how she enjoys games. Lmao at saying she's trying too hard. Do some folk think everyone on era or most gamers are 15? People are so transparent when it comes to women talking about this stuff.
I swear, George Bush could write an op-ed about how he used an Atari joystick to control the drones that bombed people in the Middle East since he used to play games as a kid, and certain people wouldn't hate on him as much as they are shitting on AOC.

Many millennials weren't even born when the N64 released, and even more grew up with the PS2 generation and would see the N64 as an archaic relic.
Fox News knows she is a threat and has been creating a ton of propaganda against her hoping they can make her the next Hilary Clinton.
So someone who plays the game can't use terms that can only be understood by people who play the game because they might sound like try-hards?
Listen doggo, sometimes you have to do some dirt to get things done, whether that's reaching across the aisle to secure funding for green energy or flash-lantern pulling in your jungler for a lane-gank while your Ez panic-flashes an extra 600 units away from the fight and accidentally ults the fountain.
I never implied she didn't. Just that as an elected official everything she says and does is under more scrutiny than a regular person. Comes with the profession.
I simply don't know what to think of this behaviour because I never seen it from someone in her position. Maybe the fact I dislike LoL and mobas in general also plays a bit into it if I'm honest.
Exactly. You never see men who are into games have their love of their hobby questioned this hard. Its gross.
It's because she's a woman some people are questioning here. Other factors are probably at play too, but not as much.
Isn't she like 31 years old? They're allowed to play games lmao. Don't try to gatekeep "older" players.
Wait until you hear my salacious thoughts on trickle-down Pyke economics.
The only thing she has wrong is that the screaming losers throwing tantrums aren't 13, they're 30.
I have an older brother that plays League, so I can attest to this.
Hypnospace Outlaw was on my GOTY list last year
now you've GOT to let me into the club
Implying a 30 year old "fellow kid"ing a demographic where the average user is 25 is having me rolling.
That's a cute exchange tho. Hoping she continues to make some huge waves as she gets more time.
I feel like this is a classic case of not knowing your audience. Because lmao that garbage joke was never gonna fly here.

I used to get mad playing League, but then they released the Magic Arena client and I just managed to completely wear out my capacity for feeling anger at games.
I wish I could say I grew and matured, but nope, my Overton window for raging at video game bullshit just got slammed all the way to one side.
I'm an assassin mid laner, I have my beefs
Hmmmmmm...
I thought the cut off for Millenials was usually 1994? If so, they'd all have been alive.
Though, I'm a Millennial that isn't particularly fond of the N64 and I grew up with it.
Yikes
this ain't it
this is no good
critique her job as a representative and her policy if you want...

Why do the elderly hate video games so much still? Some people in those comments saying she should resign and give back her salary because she played a game. I also laughed at that one person who opens up saying their quarantine is losing a business of 10 years over a flu. Just know who impacts their line of thought when they think a global pandemic that has hurt so many people is just a flu.
