Except Stupei Ace Defective @uspoonybard 2h @birdmanthefilm Thank you for making sure I don't see your film. I love the cast, Ilove the director's work, but I won't see your film LetumComplexoEgoSumLetum 2h @GamrMyrmecoleon "everybody knows" is not valid reasoning.

The article is old but it's an ongoing practice. arstechnica.com/gaming/2010/09 GamerMyrmecoleon @GamrMyrmecoleon 2h @EgoSumLetum EA sending stuff to reviewers? Agree on that. Why does GG attack indie game devs then? LetumComplexo @EgoSumLetum 2h GamrMyrmecoleon Attack is a strong word. None of the threats have been linked to anyone so far. We're mostly upset with Mz Wu because she LetumComplexo @EgoSumLetum 2h GamrMyrmecoleon has been pushing an idea that #GamerGate as a whole movement has condoned and participated in these attacks. LetumComplexo @EgoSumLetum 2h @GamrMyrmecoleon I mean, if someone turned to a group you were a part of and said "Because this one person is an a------, your entire group LetumComplexo @EgoSumLetum 2h GamrMyrmecoleon is scum and simple a hate group" wouldn't you be understandably upset?

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. …………………………....…..……….….....

[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

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

Why are comic and movie guys the only ones to stand against GG?
They have no impact on the industry or sales and at most are just attacking people because their industries are filled with the same Politically Correct poison that gaming is trying to be injected with.
