One of my neighbors in my old city explained that playing video games is how he found out he had a seizure disorder, and since that incident in the 90s hadn't played a video game.
Normal humans who play video games might respond and say "damn, that sucks. If you ever decide to give them a try, here are resources so you can avoid games that might trigger that". G*mers say "haha fuck you and your rich and fulfilling family life, you're a loser who can't play video games".
And yes, I did supply him with some info about resources for games that don't cause seizures. He said thanks, and then we went back to watching our kids play, and to my knowledge he didn't play video games again.
