Everyone Is Wrong About Pragmata (The Pronatalist Game)

Malcolm & Simone Collins discuss the viral controversy around the game Pragmata — a title that explicitly celebrates fatherhood and pronatalism. Is "dad corn" (games that stimulate parental instincts) as sinful as traditional porn? How should we think about masturbating evolutionary pathways for bonding with children?

In this unfiltered Based Camp episode, they break down:

• Why Pragmata triggers leftists

• The difference between healthy vs toxic ways to engage with parental instincts

• Why gamers actually have more kids than non-gamers (with data)

• Hassan’s “gamers are unfuckable losers” take demolished

• Deontology vs consequentialism in faith, gaming, and family formation

• Historic Christian attitudes toward sex, beauty, and pronatalism

A must-watch for anyone interested in pronatalism, video game culture, evolutionary psychology, and building high-fertility families in the modern world.
