NOTHING HAS F------ CHANGED 10

Gamergate (harassment campaign) Article Talk From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For other uses, see Gamergate (disambiguation). Gamergate or GamerGate (GG)[¹] was a loosely organized misogynistic online harassment campaign and a right-wing backlash against feminism, diversity, and progressivism in video game culture. [2][³] It was conducted using the hashtag "#Gamergate" primarily in 2014 and 2015.[1][4][5][6] Beginning in August 2014, Gamergate targeted women in the video game industry, most notably feminist media critic Anita Sarkeesian and video game developers Zoë Quinn and Brianna Wu, among others.[7][8][9][10][11] The harassment campaign included doxing, r--- threats, and death threats.[12][13][14] Gamergate proponents ("Gamergaters") stated that they were a social movement, but lacked well-defined goals, a coherent message, and leaders, making Gamergate difficult to define.[15][16][17] Gamergaters claimed to promote ethics in video games journalism, claimed to be protecting the "gamer" identity, and opposed what they asserted as "political correctness" in video games.[18][19][20][21][22] Read Date Target Gamergate, online harassment campaign in 2014-15 that targeted women in the video game industry. The attacks were attributed largely to white male right-wing gamers who railed against the rise and influence of women and feminism in the industry. Gamergate served as a recruiting tool for the growing alt-right movement and helped spur the online “Pizzagate" conspiracy theory, which soon spawned the wider QAnon conspiracy movement. …………………………....…..……….…..... Attack type Victims Motive View source Inquiry XA 28 languages ✓ Perpetrators Internet trolls, particularly from 4chan, Internet Relay Chat, and 8chan View history Tools ✓ Gamergate August 2014 - 2015 Women in the video game industry See all media Online harassment campaign Zoë Quinn, Anita Sarkeesian, Brianna Wu, and others Gamergaters created conspiracy theories falsely accusing Quinn of an unethical relationship with video game journalist Nathan Grayson.[23][24][25] More broadly, they alleged unethical collusion between the press and feminists, progressives, and social critics.[17][26] [27] These claims were widely dismissed as trivial, conspiracy theories, baseless, or unrelated to actual issues of ethics in gaming and journalism.[28] [29][30] Gamergate supporters frequently denied that the harassment took place, falsely claiming it to be manufactured by the victims.[31][32] Misogyny anti-feminism anti- progressivism FBI investigation Gamergate has been described as a culture war over cultural diversification, artistic recognition, feminism in video games, social criticism in video games, and the social identity of gamers.[28][33] [34] [35] Many supporters of Gamergate opposed the increasing influence of feminism and so-called "social justice warriors" on video game culture. [2][36] Gamergate led figures both inside and outside the gaming industry to focus on methods of addressing online harassment, ways to minimize harm, and prevent similar events. [37] [38] [39] [40] Gamergate has been viewed as a contributor to the alt-right and other right- wing movements.[21][41] Video game developer Brianna Wu

Author has 304 answers and 740.1K answer views. 5y Not that I care that much either way, but it did expose a lot of corrupt game developers and game journalists. X Journalists would make claims of people like Anita Sarkeesian "playing video games all her life" when she openly admitted many times she is not a gamer and only starter recently (when it wasn't for an interview). Various developers trading sex or money for good reviews got exposed, journalists who accepted got exposed. People became a bit more critical about supporting a game just because the developer has a victim complex stating tat their game could have only failed because of sexism, instead of their own poor developing skills. What really sealed the deal was opposition often faking their own harassment. Anita sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn have been caught multiple times screenshotting "harassment" while showing that the harrasser's account name in the login. Or when someone called the police to help Sarkeesian against a "very real threat" she was posting about, only for police to find the harasser's messages were coming from her IP address. I just want honesty from the community, and the lies were mostly exposed by the "dreaded" gamergate. 1.3K views • View upvotes 26

I-1 File (hide): 1411804 (2.81 KB, 180x180, 1:1, chmmr.gif) Returning to gamergate + thoughts In 'N Out Chef 09/27/14 (Sat) 03:47:31 ID: 1aff4f No.26452 [Reply Devfag here I'm not going to go through my personal "why am I doing this" story, but basically I was involved from the zoepost past the "gamers are dead articles" as a heavily contributing anon and (hopefully) non-terrible) infographic maker After 4chan started censoring, I took that as a cue to re-focus on the game I'm trying to release. Anyway, wanted to jump back in from the real world and make a couple of point:s 1) We're actually winning. I was worried I was lost in the echo chamber of "we're winning" NI threads for too long. But after taking a step back, I actually think we're legitimately winning. Trust in journalism has taken a huge hit, and people are starting to become aware they are agenda-driven self-promoting manipulative liars. Minds are being changed 2) The indie publications (Kotaku, RPS, etc) NEED to still be the primary target for being completely discredited as a remotely reliable source, as people like Leigh Alexander because seriously... f--- her. She's such a s----- person it's not even funny. If anyone says "well, why not go after AAA-focused publications" link them this: http://en wikipedia org/wiki/Fallacy_of relative_privation 3) Dont f------ compromise. Burn it down. I say this as a developer because I'm willing to put up my game development skills in the free market against other peoples. The corrupt journo nepotism "it's about promoting a game with the right message (aka my friends)" doesn't benefit people who actually have skills. It hurts people who actually have skills, which means it lowers the quality of the general body of games 4) A lot of developers support gamergate, but cant exactly have a voice. Not as long as Leigh Alexander can write completely fabricated articles in the Time magazine about how someone who criticized her over twitter is a r----- that rapes women and promotes r--- culture. And then it turns up in wikipedia and everywhere else. That's not a label anyone can afford having 5) The goal of gamergate really needs to be demonstrating to developers (who read, but can't comment publicly) that Kotaku is rigged, indie awards are rigged, and unless you are dating one of their journos or in their little clique then doesn't matter how good your game is, or how much you email them, you ain't never getting positive press You're not going to convince people to stop READING Kotaku, but if you convince developers to stop focusing so much effort on getting a journo to come down from the mountain and notice them, then Kotaku will go away on its own. 6) Seriously, we cannot comprise. Alea iacta est 7) Resist calls for "you need leadership" and "distancing yourself from harassers" and "you need concrete goals" etc etc. They are red herrings designed to muddy the waters. The path to victory is continuing on the path WERE ALREADY ON 8) Be very aware that it's been easy for us, because these journos are morons that don't understand what they say publicly can be screen-capped. I had one of my infographics of three screencaps placed in proximity (to catch a journo in a lie) called a conspiracy theory by that same journo in a "real" publication. The upshot is actual PR professionals aren't going to use all these shill / false-flag tactics. This Emma Watson stuff kinda blew up in their faces 9) THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU CAN DO. Stop buying AAA titles at release. Stop pre-ordering. If the new Fallout/Elder Scrolls/etc comes out (whatever franchise turns you on), at the very least wait two weeks before buying it. It won't kill you. But it WILL send a message to AAA developers they need to also put pressure on journos. Because AAA developers rely on launch-day sales Also, if you can't trust journalism, why would you buy a game on launch day? Play on, brothers and sisters.
