Which Republican calls were those?

Cite please.

People did all those things long before there were video games.

Mostly about idiots like you.

I suspect that they were defend by game manufacturers, who constitute
big business, which is overwhelmingly Republican.

Command and Conquer first came out in 1995, so one can hardly claim
that it has been defended by ANYONE for decades. Since I don't recall
it ever being that controversial, I can't imagine that it needed a lot
of defense. I do note that one of the Command an Conquer games was
banned by the Chinese government, but I doubt if even Kennie counts
them as "Republicans".

I see one "liberal" defending video games in that article, Michael
Moore, but his argument says nothing about free speech

It is Republicans that are supporting the war. Are they the only ones
who play video games?

"They"?

The military actually runs one of the games, paid for by the quite
Republican Bush administration, as a means to recruit people.

You've created yet another strawman, and not a few number of new lies.
Get thee behind me, Satan!
