It's popular because it has money in it. Thats why your precious tf2 pros are playing it. There really isn't anything more to it than that. It is easy as fuck if you're half decent at tf2, just like tf2 is easy as fuck if you're half decent at quake. To defend the games competitive legitimacy with the fact that an average player given enough time could topple some supposed fps god in it just makes you look fucking retarded (none of you actually said that, but i think the player amount argument implies it). Stop being so fucking insecure.

I'd really like some proof on this. Hating women for not giving you the sex you feel entitled to does not make you a men's rights activist. It might make you resemble an extreme caricature of one, but i really hope that wasn't your point.

I don't really see what made elliot rodger a men's rights activist. Seems much more like a failed pickup up artist. But far be it from a (feminist, leftist, whateverist) to confuse two groups of people with some overlap, that could get you called a racist in different circumstances.
