Why is casual racism/sexism more accepted in video games than other forms of media (these days)?

this doesn't look like learning to me. scaring intel off advertising at an ENEMY website is a notable success for them.

Is the dude in that SJW layer supposed to be Nathan Grayson? Phil Fish might make more sense, but it doesn't look like him (but then it doesn't much look like Nathan Grayson)

that and some of the ideas in play are pretty far beyond standard issue conservatism, but i guess all that reddity red pill and 4chan shit is fascist too eh

Yeah seeing how quickly people go from "There is corruption in the games / games journalist industry" to "Because an invisible army of SJWs are wielding massive influence thanks to their magic vaginas" is kind of dizzying.

But in general I think there's a lot of "I will examine what I opposes me and not what agrees with me" - there's still a quorum that think that the GameJournPro mailing list is clear evidence of collusion (and Jesus there's nothing worse than a bunch of nerds that have just found a new word) despite, well, the actual contents of the list.

that diagram makes me envious of the games journalist lifestyle slouching in a tuxedo all day giving toasts

ya srsly matt hook me up bro

The problem is it's ridiculously fucking easy to become a judge in a lot of places in the US.

omg do not read that page, i mean seriously any given comment anywhere on it will inspire white hot rage. fuck these people, fuck all of them, fuck this incredibly distorted and hateful and self-congratulatory little bubble they are so enthusiastically constructing for themselves at every turn

it's so creepy

i had dinner with leigh alexander once and, unprovoked, she went on a long spiel about how important sierra adventure games were to her worldview. anybody who thinks she's not a hardcore game nerd has never met her.

wait wait leigh alexander had *dinner* with you? and now you're defending her on ilx? does anyone know the number for gamergate i need to report some corruption

these people are such chodes, fuck them all with knives

also re the account of the court hearing

My memory is mediocre, so take my version of events with a grain of salt.

your memory is not why I'm taking your version of events w/a grain of salt.

this community very generously crowdfunded Eron's legal defense

fuckin' reddit is literally the actual worst

I may start using #gamergate to complain about minor irritating things wholly unrelated to gaming

should i ask #gamergate about tipping

that would be the best thing ever.

Just c&p surm's original tipping post into a multi-part tweet hashtagged gamergate

brilliant

Thinking about this (which I really should stop doing), it seems like there's two opposite things happening:

On the one hand, there's gaters projecting onto the other side: Zoe is laughing in public about TFYC, and then their site went down, so clearly she DDOSed them because that's what we'd do - a lot of "They say they're the good ones!" about this.

And on the other hand the standard conspiracy refusal to consider that people are ever acting in any way other than going about their Serious Business - so a mailing list for journalists to talk shit must be the Stonecutters, jokes on it must be serious. It's opposite because it's assuming that the other side don't just spend most of their time dicking around on the internet, like EG the entirety of 4chan. It's gamers failing to understand play.

think it's mostly just not very bright people who are frightened and resentful of women tbh

interested to see if I pop up on anyone's radar with this

I'm sorry for your lunch.

gamergate: the movie

GAMER 2: this fictional woman created solely as a mouthpiece for our politics will show the world that gamers don’t objectify women
GAMER 3: also lets make porn of her
GAMER 1: well we can’t be expected to not masturbate
GAMER 2: it would be sex-negative not to

A+

They made up a woman?

I am still confused about the feminist group named "The Fine Young Capitalists." Like, that can't be a good thing.

JOHN WALKER: what can we do to stop them though?
MATT LEES: if only these gamers weren’t our intellectual superiors in every way

this kind of dialogue screams "intellectually superior"

I... what?

i think? vivian is the name of their anime girl mascot

I get that, I don't get the "here's a topless picture of our imaginary girl that SOME people would say was sexual *scoff, scoff*"

she's like, not even, real

has that stopped any of these grognards

"It's not porn, you can't even see her penis!"
