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

my business endeavors

I found a way to, as they would put it, "Kill the Batman".

Steve 'n' Seagulls and Flock of Van Dammes (forksclovetofu), Tuesday, 4 November 2014 21:49 (eleven years ago)

definitely faded out of the general consciousness/media in the last week

though these guys will never give it up, i feel like a violent act will result, they just gonna continue to spin wackier and wackier theories and go down their own weird rabbit hole :/

Is there anyone who is pro-GG who isn't super dumb or disturbed?

kissaroo and Tyler, too (DJP), Tuesday, 4 November 2014 22:49 (eleven years ago)

I think it was overtaken by #streetharassmentvideogate and now #dunhamgate

Nhex, Wednesday, 5 November 2014 03:17 (eleven years ago)

well compared to the chan boards and the chaos of Twitter at least it's somewhat civil.

might not be thinking through the implications but I would totally donate to a kickstarter that doles out cash rewards for tips leading to the arrest of people who make internet death threats

anonanon, Wednesday, 5 November 2014 04:58 (eleven years ago)

Operation Light Up (AKA take the fight to Tumblr) is... kind of interesting, but the line "Twitter's 140 character limit means that it's totally unfit for discussion or refuting enemy arguments. It's a toy and distraction while the real conversation should be happening elsewhere, like the comments on news articles and youtube videos" is a vision into a screaming abyss.

Andrew Farrell, Wednesday, 5 November 2014 11:28 (eleven years ago)

did a Twitter search for "nick denton" earlier, im dead now

Dadjokke (Sgt. Biscuits), Wednesday, 5 November 2014 12:52 (eleven years ago)

i am now in the camp that would happily give up video games forever if it meant i could take them away from these irredeemable wastes

they are like the most gullible, willing-to-be-led-to-facism chodes I have ever seen, like a legion of Dwight-from-The-Offices

♛ LIL UNIT ♛ (thomp), Wednesday, 5 November 2014 15:15 (eleven years ago)

my sources tell me that is Denton's real facebook post

mh, Wednesday, 5 November 2014 15:19 (eleven years ago)

It does sound like him, I've heard him use that "Kill the Batman" metaphor before. He's big on superhero movie references, an odd quirk for someone so anti-gamer.

my jaw left (Hurting 2), Wednesday, 5 November 2014 15:31 (eleven years ago)

Does he sign his posts like a freaking email?

I've said this before, I am burned out by my job of 7 years due to the overstress of having to side-step my entire life and problems always for patients to come first and this is the same for GamerGate.

WAT

My new goal in life is to make sure my sons are too busy to ever pick up a videogame

kissaroo and Tyler, too (DJP), Thursday, 6 November 2014 04:25 (eleven years ago)

Is Gamergate getting increasingly gibberish or am I just losing the willpower to follow along?

jmm, Thursday, 6 November 2014 04:45 (eleven years ago)

Yeah thats the question that floated into my mind about a week back. Floated like an unflushable turd.
