French President clarifies view on video games after blaming them for riots

French President Emmanuel Macron has clarified his view on video games after previously blaming recent riots on the culture of video games.

Macron called on social media platforms to remove such footage and blamed both the platforms and video games for “intoxicating” the country’s youth and fuelling the riots (via Kotaku).

It is this violence that I condemn, not video games.
