and why they thought they needed to put the word "actual" in the title

8chan presumably considers 4chan to be a nest of sjws at this point

lmao @ "Actual Women"

Thank you, 4chan, for saving us from ersatz women in the videogame industry with this handy cheat sheet

video games can't be sexist look here are some women who make games

jenny holzer, ilxor (mh), Friday, 14 November 2014 17:29 (nine years ago) link

they make real games, not bullshit like depression quest or w/e

jenny holzer, ilxor (mh), Friday, 14 November 2014 17:30 (nine years ago) link

yeah just gonna post:

think it's "there are women who have made games so nothing anybody ever says can be misogynist mmmmkay?"

"NO SO FAST where are you on the JPG? Nice try, dude."

I think the point of that list is "Mom is wrong, I CAN find a girlfriend like this"

my jaw left (Hurting 2), Friday, 14 November 2014 17:33 (nine years ago) link

when you say mom do you mean based mom?

world's most inexplicable hashtag

jenny holzer, ilxor (mh), Friday, 14 November 2014 18:46 (nine years ago) link

so i saw this tweet: https://twitter.com/maggiekb1/status/533636582746497024 that two women, a journalist and a scientist, were getting harassment for criticizing the comet bro for his dumb shirt. checked their feeds and lo and behold, among them are a bunch of people with gg-related avatars.

also very quickly saw that their "OpSkynet" hashtag has been joined with "OpPostLewds" where they send each other anime porn. so that's where our free speech movement is this weekend.

goole, Saturday, 15 November 2014 19:54 (nine years ago) link

checked their *mentions i should say

goole, Saturday, 15 November 2014 19:56 (nine years ago) link

so perhaps I should just let this all die (please tell me it will die, right) but eh. much respect to those two women for retweeting the stupid, hateful shit they got sent

also while working through their RTs I saw this: https://twitter.com/iglvzx/status/533505214175657987
a reminder that credulous sheep and antisemites are dangerous; good job GG harbours neither

"listen and believe" refers to anita sarkeesian asking people to believe women when they tell their stories of harassment iirc.

"Only legitimate claims rise to the top"

LOL has this been true of any system at any point in history?

If only Anita could "provide evidence for the claims that she makes". Like maybe she could make a video series and include actual footage from games.

you may see mention of this in the future: a gg'er dude's gf caught wind of his online activities and her friends closed ranks and kicked him out of their apt (i gather he wasn't on the lease). he alleges assault during this. dude's twitter is r3vuem4ge (not with numbers tho). idk, goes past the limits of my schadenfreude. ugly breakups are a theme of this whole shitshow huh

But really, where oh where would they get the idea that #GamerGate is bred out of misogyny? So that's a whole other thing.

haha, I was given an ad for that on Facebook and I thought "whoa, that is a badly photoshopped picture of kate upton's face on that character"

this is one of those pay-per-play supposedly-free mmo type things, right

jenny holzer, ilxor (mh), Monday, 17 November 2014 02:26 (nine years ago) link

ya looks like a clash of clans rip off they have ads for it with her during sports

lag∞n, Monday, 17 November 2014 02:28 (nine years ago) link

I apparently had a high opinion of kate upton because I feel that I think less of her now, which is a problem with me, but
