Don't hate the player, hate the game. The commercialization of platforms made influencers possible.

The saying don't hate the player hate the game is pure cope.

It's finger pointing. Blame the game and the players who perpetuate them.

Players wouldn't have the ability nor incentives to play the game if the gamemakers didn't create the conditions for it.

Can we agree to hate the gamemakers and not the players? Incentive structures are always more powerful than individuals' choices.

What would we do without them? /s
