We're not using his last name to protect his son's privacy.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>John saw a large pile of papers facedown next to his printer. He turned them over and found a copy of a notorious neo-Nazi propaganda book. \"It's 'the white culture's in trouble, we are under attack by Jews, blacks, every other minority.' It was scary. It was absolutely frightening to even see that in my house. I was shaking, like, 'What in the world is this and why is it in my house?' \"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>John confronted his son angrily.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I was through the roof.\" And then, \"I went back into my room. I was crying. I felt like a failure that a child that I had raised would be remotely interested in that sort of stuff.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Almost every teen plays video games—97 percent of boys, according to the \u003ca href=\"http://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2018/09/17/5-facts-about-americans-and-video-games/\">Pew Research Center\u003c/a>, and 83 percent of girls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Increasingly, these games are played online, with strangers. And experts say that while it's by no means common, online games—and the associated chat rooms, livestreams and other channels—have become one avenue for recruitment by right-wing extremist groups.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At the time, John's son liked playing first-person shooter games, like \u003ca href=\"http://blog.counter-strike.net/\">Counterstrike: Global Offensive\u003c/a>. Games like these are multiplayer—you must form teams with friends or strangers. You can chat in the game, over voice or text, or in separate chat rooms. Some of these are hosted by sites like Discord that make it easy for anyone to create a private chat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>John knew his son was spending time playing video games and chatting either out loud or over text, but there were no obvious red flags.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There wasn't anything obvious to me at first because it's common. This is the norm for kids. Instead of hanging out at the drive-in they're all online,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet it's exactly this way, John says, that his son started hanging out with avowed white supremacists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These people became his son's friends. They talked to him about problems he was having at school, and suggested some of his African-American classmates as scapegoats. They also keyed into his interest in history, especially military history, and in Nordic mythology. Above all, they offered him membership in a hierarchy: whites against others.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"He started to feel like he was in on something. He was now in the in crowd with these guys. It provided some structure and identity that he was searching for at the time.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>John learned his son had been drawn into conversation with at least one group that the Southern Poverty Law Center calls a Nazi terrorist organization. He searched online for help and found a man named \u003ca href=\"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_Picciolini\">Christian Picciolini\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Picciolini runs the Free Radicals project, which he calls \"a global prevention network for extremism.\" He's a reformed skinhead himself.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDP2TSHZqyI\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>\"\u003c/em>Thirty years ago, when I was involved in the white supremacist movement, it was very much a face to face interaction,\" he says. \"You know, you had to meet somebody to be recruited, or you had a pamphlet or a flyer put on your car.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But today, he says, it's much more common for extremists to initially reach out online. And that includes over kids' headsets during video games. Picciolini describes the process: \"Well typically, they'll start out with dropping slurs about different races or religions and kind of test the waters ... Once they sense that they've got their hooks in them they ramp it up, and then they start sending propaganda, links to other sites, or they start talking about these old kind of racist anti-Semitic tropes.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's also what Joan Donovan has seen.

Games like these are multiplayer—you must form teams with friends or strangers. You can chat in the game, over voice or text, or in separate chat rooms. Some of these are hosted by sites like Discord that make it easy for anyone to create a private chat.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>John knew his son was spending time playing video games and chatting either out loud or over text, but there were no obvious red flags.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"There wasn't anything obvious to me at first because it's common. This is the norm for kids. Instead of hanging out at the drive-in they're all online,\" he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Yet it's exactly this way, John says, that his son started hanging out with avowed white supremacists.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>These people became his son's friends. They talked to him about problems he was having at school, and suggested some of his African-American classmates as scapegoats.

And that includes over kids' headsets during video games. Picciolini describes the process: \"Well typically, they'll start out with dropping slurs about different races or religions and kind of test the waters ... Once they sense that they've got their hooks in them they ramp it up, and then they start sending propaganda, links to other sites, or they start talking about these old kind of racist anti-Semitic tropes.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That's also what Joan Donovan has seen.

They sound like heroes and villains from a big-budget video game, but those are actually the epithets being thrown around by players, gamers, developers, and even some journalists in an increasingly toxic battle being waged for the soul of video games and games journalism. It’s a battle involving reviews scandals, ethics discussions, dueling YouTube videos, and threats of violence. What is going on in the world of video games?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since 2009, \u003ca href=\"http://www.feministfrequency.com/\">Feminist Frequency\u003c/a> has produced web videos that explore the representation of women in popular culture and art. Since 2012, when series creator Anita Sarkeesian launched a successful Kickstarter campaign to create a series of videos called Tropes vs. Women in Video Games, she has been on the receiving end of vile and inexcusable threats against her safety and her life. Do you know what she’s saying that’s so controversial?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This project will examine the tropes, plot devices, and patterns most commonly associated with women in gaming from a systemic, big picture perspective. This series will include critical analysis of many beloved games and characters. But remember that it’s both possible, and even necessary, to simultaneously enjoy media while also being critical of its more problematic or pernicious aspects.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>http://youtu.be/X6p5AZp7r_Q\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Sarkeesian brings a critical eye to video games and their representation of women as damsels to be rescued, gender-swapped versions of male characters, and nameless characters that exist to be carried around, or even killed, by the main male characters of the game.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Feminist Frequency’s videos are straightforward, cleanly produced, and long. Each episode is about 20 minutes, and “Damsel in Distress” itself has three parts, so it’s longer than an hour altogether. They feature game footage and commentary from Sarkeesian, who discusses the games and women’s roles in them. She discusses tropes and recurring stereotypes in a way that -- even if you understand, intellectually, that video games often portray women in a sexist manner -- is shocking and unacceptable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She does not try to take anyone’s games away. She does not call for boycotts.

They sound like heroes and villains from a big-budget video game, but those are actually the epithets being thrown around by players, gamers, developers, and even some journalists in an increasingly toxic battle being waged for the soul of video games and games journalism. It’s a battle involving reviews scandals, ethics discussions, dueling YouTube videos, and threats of violence. What is going on in the world of video games?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since 2009, \u003ca href=\"http://www.feministfrequency.com/\">Feminist Frequency\u003c/a> has produced web videos that explore the representation of women in popular culture and art. Since 2012, when series creator Anita Sarkeesian launched a successful Kickstarter campaign to create a series of videos called Tropes vs. Women in Video Games, she has been on the receiving end of vile and inexcusable threats against her safety and her life. Do you know what she’s saying that’s so controversial?\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This project will examine the tropes, plot devices, and patterns most commonly associated with women in gaming from a systemic, big picture perspective. This series will include critical analysis of many beloved games and characters.
