As for why no one in politics will support video games, my take on it is that the right appeals mainly to older conservatives who've probably never played a video game in their lives, while the left appeals to the political correctness-obesessed social justice types currently lecturing gamers about how sexist, racist, or misogynistic they supposedly are, because shaming is what these people do best. When the generations that grew up with video games get older and move into politics, that could very well change. Although to be fair the large number of idiocy and harassment from loud GamerGaters didn't help matters, to say the least. Point is, the guy who wrote this article is an idiot.
