#GamerGate vs Anti-GG: Can You Spot The Difference? Recently a video by a YouTube user named The Ripper Virus claimed that a 7 year old boy received online abuse because of his Father's support of #GamerGate During the time when the video's veracity had not yet been determined, there was a stark and clear difference between the actions of #GamerGate supporters as compared to its opponents Supporters of #GamerGate did NOT: have professional journalists publish articles blaming the call that group "child abusers" or make similarly unfounded, use "child abuser" as an insult inside tweets, forum posts, etc abuse of a child on a specific grou vile accusations against them in an attempt to poison the well during debates silence discussion by saying "I will not talk with someone who abuses children" exploit moderator privileges or shame sites into banning anti- GG discussions/users under the guise that their free speech was "promoting the abuse of children" Instead, supporters of #GamerGate DID: express sympathy directly to the man and his family gene26 1 day ago BastendorfEvergrass 2 days ago I feel for you and your kid, man. I'm a gamer,My heart goes out to you and your son caution each other not to jump to conclusions omesauce. [S 22 points 2 days ago this video. And if you're like me, it's tough to watch without becoming a bit emotional as well. Had to remind at the person(s) who sent the threats/abuse could be anyone, even someone just trolling without any interest in use the opportunity to examine their own actions for fault some really legitimate points here, I don't think any of us really considered some of the damage I've been trying to encourage deescalation whenever possible for just this reason it honestly caused me to take a critical second look at my own behaviour, remove their provisional support when the video was revealed to be a likely hoax, plus appreciate the work of the person who helped bring new information about the video to light, and upvote and gild a reddit post from them even though they were on the opposing side -1 writer_jenna 71 points 15 hours ago* That's my post. >:) https://twitter.com/writer_jenna/status/519941301962539008 (Reply on reddit with a 7-digit number, and I'll tweet it.) I'm most definitely anti-GG. But I put on my fighting gloves, and you all responded maturely and kindly GILDED CAN YOU SEE THE DIFFERENCE???
