You say that but I genuinely wouldn’t be surprised if gamers as a demographic are more liberal than average.

Maybe the general gaming public but probably not among capital G Gamers™ who are the loud minority on the internet.

I think gamers are more reactionary than average. Gamers gave us Gamergate which eventually gave us Trump.
