LongLiveGamerGate 4 hours ago I hope any of you anti GG and SJW are reading this Well yes, yes I was bullied back in school Yes even back then the bullies would play the victim. And yes, even back then people would believe them. Yes I did escape from it into the world of video games Yes, the games were the only place where I was accepted my whole childhood Yes indeed I was pathetic And yes, I was ugly too Yes instead of people, I was saved by video games Yes my bullies said it was just "playing" and "joking" too Yes, I've learned that "playing and joking" were terms for severe sexual abuse Yes my first suicide attempt was at 13 And yes, I understand that you are oppressed because a character in a video game you haven't even played shows too much skin. Yes, I understand that being psychologically and physically abused for years is funny to you Yes, of course it is, you and your lives were always perfect And yes I wished I was you, I wished it so badly But I don't care, I don't do this and support this because of you. I do this and support this to protect the only thing that has kept me sane trough those years and to support all the strangers around the world, who shared all that with me There will always be people like you, and that shows perfectly how unimportant and meaningless you are, deep down you know this. And every time you laugh at us, at me, it doesn't hurt now, because I know you wish you had to fight, and survive, you wish you you could be stronger, you wish you could be not so meaningless and empty. You want to be a victim but you cannot escape the fact that you are a bully. A bully who had it too nice. Because just like in games, if it's too easy, it won't feel like you achieved anything. So you hide behind the shield of irrational ideologies and false victimhood, to convince yourself, and others, that you are doing something important, and that you had to fight. The fact that I'm pathetic...I don't mind it at all 2 ^ 、、 . Reply . Share

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

I feel this guy.

I too was bullied back then, and videogames were there for me whenever I needed it.

Where instead of being the lonely nerd that gets beaten up everyday, I would instead become a hero in shining armor that saves the people of the land, kill the bad guys, and see that score rise.

I could become anyone I wanted and lose myself in this world and escape from my reality.

Nowadays I am doing much better, and I have videogames to thank for that. I wouldn't be here if it weren't for it.

And now with all this bullshit of saying how videogames are sexist and gamers being misogynists, I became livid.

Videogames saved my life, and I'll be damned to let them tarnish my savior.
