#Gamergate - Curtiss - 2014-08-29
Flonne Wrote:Actual journalists don't care about this kind of thing and are usually the types of people would who think people that play videogames more than an hour a month are creepy losers, though. Some would be worse than others though; can you imagine Fox News picking it up? They would be shitting on both the gamers and Zoe.
I'm not sure about that. The head editor at Kotaku has been said to have an actual degree in journalism, and having what he's doing being exposed would be a major embarrassment to real journalism at large. And yeah, it's us going at the advertisers for now since they're only in it for the money and I sincerely doubt someone like Zoe who has to practically beg for it can give them much. They won't want to associate with big sites like Kotaku and Polygon too if word gets out about them insulting their userbase.

TFYC is seriously classy and based, and their final statement on Zoe on Tumblr is equally so. I'll be sad if he really does leave the indie game dev scene, because he's the very kind of person we want as a gamer and a person who's not in it for the money like all of these other corrupt people.

Do people really care that much about being on some feminazi's shitlist? He talks like nobody would ever want to speak against them. I personally don't have a twitter or facebook account because they are retarded as pineapple, but if I did, I'm sure most of my days would be full of mocking those idiots. Maybe that's the reason in and of itself; I have zero interest in maintaining or even creating a social life for myself, so I don't care if people think I'm a misogynist or whatever else they may use as a paper shield. By their definitions, I probably am WELL over the line into misogyny, to be honest. I've had so many bad experiences with females in games over the years that I generally refuse to do anything more intensive than EXP/item farming with them; in a raid environment every single female I've ever been in a group with simply hasn't been able to handle how critical I am with everything everyone does, ignoring the fact that I do the same with the males, and to a greater extent by FAR than anyone else, myself. If I make a mistake I have already learned how to prevent, I will spend the entire night mentally beating myself up about it regardless of what anyone says. It always ends with "either he leaves or I/we do", which is probably the most annoying thing any female can ever say for so many reasons this post would probably have a stack overflow if I went over it all, not the least but nowhere near the greatest of which being, it's passive aggressive as pineapple and if there's one thing I hate it's passive aggressive drama in video games.
I'm sure if anita over at femfreq saw this, she would make a blog post about me like that one guy from the other day that may or may not have even been a real thing, and start a paypal account to buy a $500 anal cream to soothe her butthurt.

Giantbomb's PAX presentation was a massive bullpomegranateting circlejerk, as expected. They actually started the thing with a huge projection of "internet trolls won't win". They neither understand WHY so many people are pissed off, or JUST HOW MANY are pissed off about this; the amount of boos in a mostly moderated convention audience should have been a rude awakening, but I doubt it was, that's just how conceited they are. Giantbomb's PAX presentation was co-hosted by Quinn, if you didn't know.

I was watching the panel with the Escapist (http://prime.paxsite.com/schedule/panel/gametrailers-gamefront-and-the-escapist-the-massive-qa), and one guy claimed he wasn't a journalist and a few moments later called himself a newsman. Then another one of the guys called himself a journalist. Awkward laughter ensued, but only on the part of the panel - the audience was silent as the grave. Also, they never fully addressed a guy's question from the audience (his name was Ben) regarding ethics in journalism and reviewing.

Currently the best posts on twitter are coming from Adam Baldwin, he's a one man wrecking crew, to the extent that Zoe's responses to him have become nearly incoherent from what I can only assume is either rage or alcohol, or both.

oh yeah, and apparently this

the fight is nearly won!

And now they are bombing a pineappleing criminal investigator's twitter account because he's "a misogynist". They certainly aren't the sharpest lot (regardless of whether he is a fake).

Adam Baldwin is easily the funniest part of this whole thing, the whole of /v/ basically yelled at each other when he suddenly joined in the fight and gave support to TFYC, which prompted Cinema Blend to write yet another article highlighting how this video-game related thing was completely ignored.
I've also seen some Japanese post in /v/, Mexico apparently has an article about the corrupt journalism and members of the anime, LGBT, politically incorrect and tabletop games channels have come into /v/ to say that they approve of our crusade too, and I'm just laughing looking at all the SJW making themselves look like idiots.

Psst, those of you who'd like to help us! This is Operation Disrespectful Nod, aimed at e-mailing the advertisers of these corrupt journalists to tell them that you can't support a company that slanders you.
In particular, I'd be thankful if one of you could tell me if Gamasutra is sponsored by Dell because I'd like to write to them and a few others.

This is actually working by the way, a lot of people are saying their emails are starting to get queued, meaning the PR desks are overfilled at the moment; a lot of people are getting responses back too, now. The other side claims this sort of thing is illegal, but it's not, at least not in America. In fact, if it WERE illegal, we would have a MUCH bigger problem on our hands than just videogames.

He's made other posts clearly saying misogynists are worse than ISIS.

Great, we've been hearing of positive feedback too. And I would not argue with these idiots, some guy seriously told me 'games that have these kinds of messages should be allowed to exist free from criticism on the basis that they challenge a person’s view/perspective. grow up and realize that exists outside of your scope'.
...he's a feminist and he doesn't realize that the entire movement was founded because women decided to be critical of the idea that they were second to men. These are the sort of retards who seek to destroy the video game industry, and they need to be flattened like Goombas.
