![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. …………………………....…..……….….....

[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](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/list/002/691/215/331.png "What the actual f--- are we supposed to do about this")

Last 50 Posts' atch Thread] The front page has nothing good on it. I'll help that. HULU is Gawker's last major advertiser. We have a mountain of proof to let them know that they are putting their brand at risk if they continue to do so Get those efforts properly redoubled. Email HULU with proof of Gawker's blatant refusals to be responsible journalists, treat their readers/HULU's customers with respect and their general hateful public statements against people of all races and orientations. The hashtag wars, e-celeb drama and radio interviews are not nearly as important as shutting them down for good This is what we have so far: We dont have a personal contact form for them from what Ive seen. Finding the people in charge of Hulu's advertising department is crucial to getting through to them. We need the direct emails and company addresses for the people at Hulu so we can dodge help#email the robot network and get the message straight to real people in charge We still haven't gotten any confirmation on the status of Home Depot >Does this mean we stop emailing them? ABSOLUTELY NOT Until we get confirmation that these advertisers are gone, continue sending emails >But how do l email Home Depot? >Home Depot Email(?) >PAUL_C_SNOW@homedepot.com (Costumer Service Email) >matt_carey@homedepot.com (Tech representative email) >Contact Us http://www.homedepot.com/ >Select"Other" for both >Set your email and other information to show you actually exist >Get reply And for the morale boosting? htt >Vox asking us to stop killing Gawker because they know their nex >Or are they?
