Brie Larson Branded ‘ Fake Gamer’ After Sharing Snap Of DualShock 4 10 August 202010 August 2020 by Lara Jackson Actor Brie Larson was attacked by Twitter trolls who branded her a “fake gamer” after sharing a picture of her DualShock 4. The star, who is known to be an avid fan of video games including Animal Crossing: New Horizons, took to Twitter to share two images of her weekend: one of the Marvel’s Avengers beta installing, and one of her DualShock 4 controller. Sadly, trolls took the opportunity to jump on Larson for the… *checks notes*…cleanliness of her controller, branding her a “fake gamer.”ADVERT ADVERT ? pic.twitter.com/oiRJ3JBWdU- Brie Larson (@brielarson) August 8, 2020 Responding to the tweet, one user said: “New controller. Never played nothing before. Noob.” A second chimed in: “I was about to say the same thing. That is a BRAND NEW controller lol Like just bought fresh out of the store and out of its package less than 2min ago new. I think shes a fake wannabe gamer.” I was about to say the same thing.

Thankful Lucis (@Elux_Lucis82) August 9, 2020 I’m not sure if Brie Larson has intimidated the internet with her accomplishments (which has then led to some gatekeeping/sexism) or if people are genuinely trolling. All I can say here is that we’re in a global pandemic. Keep your controllers clean, people! (And stop dragging others that do just that).
