Has there been any peer reviewed study to prove this point and refute the numerous studies that show this claim to be false?

Cooking Mama is to blame. You use fire, protesters are setting fires.

Or maybe it’s horizon zero dawn, because it teaches you to hunt dinosaurs and the French govt is stuffed with them (mine is too, no shade)

I could do this all day.

Mario games must be banned, they make people jump on turtles and throw turtle shells.

Kirby games are even worse, people suck because of Kirby!!

The last straw was: institutional corruption
