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

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.

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.

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.

I think it translates to "don't write about how this game treats women line garbage" with the caveat "we can complain all day if games we don't like are offered on steam"
― mh, Thursday, 6 November 2014 15:30 (nine years ago) link
that is some incoherent bullshit, and starting your manifesto with the words 'this isn't a harassment campaign' is 100% nagl.
they really have no idea of how criticism works in other forms of art, do they?
― bizarro gazzara, Thursday, 6 November 2014 15:31 (nine years ago) link
or criticism in general, no. instead of responding to criticism or saying "that's valid, but it doesn't bother me" the response is DON'T WRITE THAT
