We believe that a Fifth Estate worthy of that name needs to be ethical, transparent, Corption is bad free from conflicts of interests and aiming to inform rather than preach; toer the Advocating for things we disagree with is bad trust of the public, the real and only source of it's legitimacy Advertisers should help us censor people we disagree with. We denounce the mercantilization of debased social justice, and thus believe it's our responsibility to inform sponsors and partners, of the moral corruption they implicitly endorse thorough their advertisements. We resist the careerist writers who sacrifice social harmony, human ethics and intellectual honesty on the altar of Controversy, in their quest for clicks, in an attempt to please their corporate owners' cupidity People who say things we disagree with are bad. People who try to change our opinions are bad We refuse to forego our legitimate right to think for ourselves, and resist those who wants us to serve as a passive, obedient, subservient audience whose only function is to "listen and believe" the propaganda of culture war profiters and patented gurus who prey on the gullibles We reject harassment, threats, abuse; and the use of those terms to mislabel Harassment is bad questions, dissent, and criticism; which are all essential parts of any rational, logical, When we harass people it is actually respectful criticism. respectful social discussion. People who say they are being harassed are bad.

We believe that we are humans first; and that the use of our gender, sexual orientation, Talking about racism, sexism, or homophobia is bad religious or ethnic identities as mere commodities, to be traded on the mediatic market, in return for ideological brownie points; is pure objectification and dehumanizing to us all.

To you, those things should divide us. Yet here we stand, united Because we are not divided by those identities we didn't choose. We are united by the one identity we did choose.

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

AGGs:

'_We'll just keep changing definitions of all the words to suit our agenda and our arguments_.'

Arguing with any random AGG is quite literally the same as arguing with a child. An argument with a child cannot be won, because a child has not developed a rational thought process. A child will lie and change definitions so as not to be 'wrong'. That's why adults have to treat a child like a … child.

Most children eventually grow up and learn through their parents and their own life experiences. They develop their beliefs and thoughts, and eventually become a full-on adult with independent thought and actions.

And then there's the typical SJW/AGG. Still a child.

No consequences to their words or actions. No real life experiences. Never wrong, even in the face of clear evidence and facts that say otherwise. Mommy, Daddy – someone has always bailed them out and enabled them. Just like a child, facts don't matter – only being right matters.

You wonder how they can make so many careless mistakes and speak so recklessly? We're fighting children. Children who will never grow or learn.
