![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")

Like we're a f------ company that has all of its thousands of its retweeters on a payroll and their identifying information and GG-rank on file. People blamed GamerGate for even poisoning Wu's dog, for God's sake. And it's not like GamerGate supporters' apologies from big figures over things they weren't even responsible for, yet were compelled by GJP and clickbait mongers to share the guilt of. accomplished anything beneficial. We're still all misogyracist zombie r----- shitlord gamers anyway AND FOR F---'S SAKE, WALES. WHY DO A BUNCH OF RANDOM, ANONYMOUS DISGRUNTLED CONSUMERS HAVE TO ASSUME OURNALISTIC ETHICAL PROPRIETY OR MAKE A HIERARCHICAL, ORGANIZATIONAL BUSINESS MODEL OR WHAT HAVE YOU? THESE PEOPLE ARE THE READERS. THE AUDIENCE. THE OVERHWELMING NUMBER OF GAMERGATE SUPPORTERS ARE NOT INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE ASSUMED RESPONSIBILITIES SUCH AS, I DUNNO, BEING GATEKEEPERS TO THE MEDIA? RESPONSIBLY AND NEUTRALLY CURATING A FREE, ONLINE REFERENCE FOR THE PUBLIC GOOD? GAMERGATE IS NOT F------ RESPONSIBLE FOR SETTING EXAMPLES FOR THE GJP AND WIKI-UNBLOCKABLE F-------- THEY WANTED THE JOB, THEY WANTED THE PRIVILEGES, THEY GET THE RESPONSIBILITIES. That's how a job works. That's how volunteering for the public good works.
