Can someone accurately explain GameGate in a sentence?

This is the nonsense that is gamergate.. This is the lie that they believe.

The journalist that she slept with gave no such mention of her game. Nor did any other article on the same publication for which he works for, ever say anything about her game let alone whether it was good or bad.

It's such a stupid cause.

You are really bad at this game.

His name is in the credits of the game. He admitted to being there since the alpha testing phase.

Not that any of that even matters...

What part of "its about the games journalists collectively defending a confirmed liar and a fraud and processing to shit on their customers" don't you get?

I think the reason no one takes the shit serious is because creators/journos being chummy with each other has been a thing forever, in every industry. When mentions of the whole thing first surfaced and other forums started deleting threads on the situation, people automatically assumed it was because she was a chick pushing a feminist idea, instead of understanding that what she did, everyone does and no one likes what they do to be outed. The big companies and the reviewers don't want to explain what exactly is their relationship to one another, so the whole thing got derailed into shit about gender. Which of course lights the fire under every virginal grand wizard on the interwebs.

Yeah that's pretty much how I understand the whole thing. It also seems to be a complete waste of time on both sides. In 6 months to a year it will be reduced to a punch line in a meme. Its annoying to say the least, on both sides, but beyond that I'm not sure why everyone is so hung up on this right now. Plenty of other more important things to expend my energy on.

Honestly it's starting to become a full blown culture war. It might not be important to you but it's clearly important to enough people to his several mainstream media outlets, Colbert and get 5 million tweets in 3 months.

It's just video games. It's a big industry but it's far from complex, much less so if you concentrate on the journalistic aspect. If something so simple and unimportant can't be 'fixed', how do you expect the big issues like news/government/academia/finance corruption to be fixed?

This idea of 'other mediums of media and entertainment are fucked up so it's ok' is pretty ridiculous as well.

Her knee must have had too much thin privilege.

There is nothing to fix. If you don't like what x person is saying, kaga... Then don't watch their YouTube videos, dummy.

It's done in every industry, everywhere. Not just games. But, the internet is full of tumblr warriors and their mra counterparts. The same victimizing, autistic behavior from a group of repressed, suburbanite fuckheads. A small group, with loud voices, makes it seem more important because they have nothing important going in their lives, so they must create a boogeyman to fight against.

The reason feminists and mra groups stay small is because they are full of retarded children. Adults do something if they see a real problem. Children go on the net and complain.

If you really do see it as a culture war, then why aren't you doing something about it? As I've said before, I want people to act and stop being cowards. I want people to do some fucked up shit. So when they point to this thread, and call me up, I can say that Everquest made me do it. And they'll close the whole dam thing down. I've said it before, that's my end game. I want you pussies to nut up instead of complaining for my entertainment.

Sounds like kaga is just angry that people are having sex.
