      @deadsuperhero isn't dehumanizing people the problem you want to solve (eg treating people as disposable embodied ideologies)?

         In principle, video game characters (footsoldiers especially) are effectively effigies designed to either tell a story, or simulate combat. I know they are not really people.

         I think violent video games can serve as a legitimate outlet for aggression, and I consider them useful for dealing with stress and other unpleasant states of mind.

         I shoot Nazis because I am playing a story featuring an excuse to do so, but I'm also getting back into FPS games.

            @deadsuperhero fair enough. Didn't catch the full context ;-) Have you played any free code #FPS games?
