Ernest W. Adams How to create an obedient and usefully brutal army 1. Gather a small coterie of clever, sadistic, amoral people who will stop at nothing to gain power or wealth, or who simply enjoy causing pain for its own sake. This will be your officer corps. 2. Find large numbers of under-employed, socially inept people from the dominant culture (the same one as your own, but not as smart as your officer corps) who think they are entitled to better than the world has given them but are not willing to work for it. Look for anyone with a grievance, particularly one they have no means of resolving. Young single underpaid men work best, as th have no family commitments to divide their attention. 3. Now choose as a target a relatively powerless, despised marginalized group who have been asking for better treatment lately. Best to select one that is not organized and unused to using force to defend itself 4. Devise a cover story for your activities that gives the illusion you are somehow acting for the public good. Use this as a recruiting tool. Build it into an ideology. Use slogans and propaganda to create cohesion. Assert that YOU are the weak and oppressed group, not your chosen targets. 5. Persuade your army that the target group is actually a huge danger to them; a powerful, organized cabal of outsiders who are trying to disrupt their way of life and have no business as part of your group or nation. Emphasize their "differentness." Use lies and conspiracy theories. Adopt the terminology of warfare; tell your foot soldiers that they are merely acting in legitimate defense against invasion. 6. Encourage your foot soldiers to attack members of the target group. Tell them that the ends justify the means and promise them that you can protect them agt any reprisals. 7. Use any resistance, however mild, against your attacks as evidence of the target's moral bankruptcy. Assert that they have forfeited any right to dissent or resist. 8. Savagely and publicly punish anyone from your group who questions either your assumptions or your tactics. Accuse anyone who appears to be an independent thinker of being a spy for the other side. 9. Publicly disavow the more extreme actions of your followers, while pointing out that the targets really did deserve it anyway. Praise and reward your extremists in private. 10. Find one or two members from the target group whom you can trick into joining your organization to use as evidence that you don't really mean any harm to ALL of the targets, only the ones who are supposedly evil. You can usually draw these from members of the target group who have been badly treated by their own kind; failing that, use bribery 11. Intimidate or seek to destroy any members of the press who question your actions or who report on your true intentions. 12. Do not debate; do not reason; only attack. Ignore all criticism. Never concede a point. Continue until the target group is utterly cowed or destroyed. Des Edu ona Jona Your army is now read Worked for Lenin. Worked for Goebbels. Works for #GamerGate. It's the same script every time.

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

Guy sounds like he described the SJW's and current media tbh. An army that constantly has to be oppressed, or is fighting for the oppressed against filthy white male privilege and a patriarchy, is told by the media that they're doing well and that their opposition is knowingly or unknowingly subjugating everyone, and never reports on them if they go to extreme lengths to drive their targets to the ground, and in fact will congratulate them for doing so.

He just perfectly described the very hipster fascists Gamergate is against.

Further proof that self awareness is completely alien to these people.
