Dropped the godamn hammer on them. I know no one really took gaming journalism too seriously but this is straight criminal and now we have overwhelming proof of not only corruption but also cover ups and using a charity fund for personal use.

SPREAD IT AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN UNTIL THEY HAVE NO CHOICE TO ACKNOWLEDGE

Also 4chan made a song about the whole debacle. Reddit got a nod too for resisting the temptation to shill along.

We had another scandal with the dewritoesgate scandal. A writer called out a few people when Geoff Keighley had a video of him with doritoes and halo in the backgrounds. And interview that had nothing to do with either products. Lauren wainwright, a reviewer filed libel and got said writer to step down. Now Lauren Wainwright, as it turned out was working for Square Enix as well as given them praise in articles as a reviewer/game journo.

I thought this incident would be the the event that would shake up gaming journalism.

Now here we are 2 years later from dewritoes gate. Honestly I just want someone to come clean, I'm tired of people brushing this under the rug and I'm especially tired of this gaming clique between writers and game devs.

My initial reaction to all this was "well games journalism has always sucked, no news here" but then it occurred to me it would be nice if games journalism was actually good.

Finally! The soundclip with the David Jaffe confrontation is brought up again. The gaming press is all too ready to leap to conclusions and make leaps of logic to attack someone who makes themselves even a bit of a target for them. And they're all to able to also leap to the defense of one of their own.

These journalists are giving Zoe Quinn money. They see nothing wrong with this. They are blind to their bias.

Journalistic ideals and ethics were left dead behind them, long ago.

This video also does a spectacular job of shining a light on Zoe Quinn's destruction of a game jam. She's funneling money into her own accounts. Every time she plays the victim, claiming she's been mugged, harassed or hacked, her crowd are quick to jump to her defense and give her cash.

It's disgraceful.

Gaming journalism has been trash for a long while. That was a decade ago. It has always been getting worse. This is the new low point, where developers and journalists see no need to separate themselves, drowning in their bias, blind to any other point of view. Every article and diatribe on social justice and feminism has just been click-bait. When they do something wrong, they don't care.

This is the worst gaming journalism has ever been.

And based on their acceptance of this situation, their unwillingness to open their eyes to their own hypocrisy, it's only going to get worse.

[–]smacksaw 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (1子コメント)

One thing that I think they've overlooked is if she's committed fraud, she's criminally liable. If she sabotaged this game jam, she and her soon-to-be co-defendants are civilly liable.

If you want to know why they're so vigorously defending her, it isn't because of any sort of loyalty or like for her. It's because the companies that employ these people are exposed to liability.

When I was a kid, I went to military school. I did some horrible things there that I didn't really want to do, but had to do. If you're not "in", you're "out", and people who are on the outside are dangerous because they're clean. When everyone is just as guilty as everyone else, you learn there's a perverse incentive in not getting anyone in trouble.

That's what's going on with gaming journalism today. All of these sites are collaborating whether they like it or not. I wonder if it will all come crashing down like a house of cards?

InternetAristocrat doesn't get it. He keeps asking rhetorically if they are stupid, nuts, etc.

It's that they're all intertwined in the crimes of some people. Going back to my military school shit, I sat idly by while others did horrible things with my tacit approval through inaction. It's not like Kotaku can bust Nathan without him exposing other shit and wrecking the entire enterprise. He made mistakes because good people (with an MBA) sat by and did nothing when they knew better.

These videos claims heavily look into the issue of one developer, the creator of Cards Against Humanity, being accused of rape and many gaming sites reporting on his rape accusation.

Flip the genders and all of them outright refuse to raise the issue. There is nothing circumstantial, everything is laid out with screenshots of articles and twitter posts. That is probably the most interesting and damning thing in the video to me.

List of media outlets that reported on CAH's creator's rape accusation: Rock Paper Shotgun, Gawker, TheDailyBeast, Kotaku, Jezebel, TheMarySue. NeoGaf allowed a 17 page thread on it. There are more that I can't find at a glance.

The difference between Zoe Quinn and Max Temkin? Zoe Quinn is a part of the social justice movement. Max Temkin includes cards in his game that offends the social justice movement. Convenient.

Edit (Additional note, since my inbox is being blown up - Zoe Quinn's public views are that if you commit infidelity in a relationship and do not tell your partner before sleeping with them, you are misleading them and therefore having sex without consent, making you a rapist. These situations are directly comparable. If an allegation of rape against Max Temkin is somehow games journalism, despite having no connection to gaming and being an accusation without proof, so is this.)

Update False alarm on the shadowban. I was apparently shadowbanned by an automated filter, it has been removed.

[–]live_free 45 ポイント46 ポイント  (6子コメント)

This isn't the first time it has happened. 'SJW' also accused people like Micheal Shermer of rape -- a prominent atheist activist -- after they infiltrated the Atheist Convention scene. They run around leaving a trail of false-accusations, victim-hood routines, and moral bankruptcy everywhere they go.

They already know their answer, and they will do anything, to try to prove it. Even if that means doing it themselves on an anonymous board and claiming it was the 'trolls'; or in Phil's case fake being hacked and dropping his own legal information, Fez sales, and steam contracts. These people will knowingly violate the law in order to defend each-other and play the victim card.

[–]AndyAndrophile 16 ポイント17 ポイント  (1子コメント)

In case anyone is wondering what he's talking about re Shermer being accused of rape:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4WA4qtemcUs

(tldr: Shermer refilled a woman's glass of wine when she continued to drink it empty and then they had sex, so therefore he's a rapist.)

This was but one of many, MANY insane SJW feminist drama mongering bullshit incidents that occurred in the skeptic community a couple years ago. It was these shit shows that directly led to my finally realizing the incompatibility of feminist "theory" and a scientifically skeptical worldview. Of course, the skeptic community is almost vanishingly miniscule, so when this happened virtually no one in the wider public at large noticed or gave a shit, but now that the same thing is happening in the HUGE gaming community maybe a significant number of people will start to open their eyes to this dogmatic bigoted ideology that infects and destroys everything it touches.

[–]live_free 7 ポイント8 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I was one of the few involved in that drama; among other incidents. It has been eye-opening to see the internet react so widely to these incursions on the part of delusion. They have poisoned the well so to speak and the slow creep has only continued; now, frighteningly enough, with the support and added censorship of numerous mainstream websites.

Thank you for the link to the aforementioned video. To the uninitiated I recommend you watch all of Thunderf00t's videos on the topic; they range from the like of Shermer, Anita, Watson, and more over 20-30 videos. They exist as a panacea of sanity in otherwise turbulent waters.

I used to think the whole don't criticize Feminists or you will be labeled a misogynist thing was hyperbolic nonsense but it seems to be pretty right on in the gaming industry. Right now if you Google Zoe Quinn the first result is a horribly written article literally called "Gaming Misogyny Gets Infinite Lives", which misses all the facts and paints the situation like people are rallying behind an angry ex boyfriend to take revenge on his former lover. Totalbiscuit wrote the only reasonable post about the situation and of course he gets attacked for it.

The worst part is how destructive this is to fighting actual misogyny in the industry, because at this point whenever someone try to bring up legitimate issues everyone is so polarized that no one is willing to listen or consider a different perspective.

Take from the recent hot trend of feminists tattooing themselves with the word misandry (but remember, feminists don't hate men, that's just a myth the patriarchy invented! Feminism is only about wanting EQUALITY!!), that no, it is in fact decidedly not at great idea. It's creepy and retarded.

[–]Einhaender 10 ポイント11 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I might add that the Article on Max Temkin, written by Patricia "everything is rape" Hernandez, didn't really care if he was innocent or not.

All she cared about was that he might be guilty in some way or the other and that he publicly defended himself after being publicly accused, which made him somewhat guilty.

Hernandez' obsession with rape twisted the matter into portraying Temkin as "somewhat" guilty, not necessarily of rape, but definitely of something.

A golden statement from the comment section is her not saying, but strongly implying that he's statistically guilty.

The Arcticle mentioned in the vid, for those who dare to venture into her twisted mind.

[–]allocater 0 ポイント1 ポイント  (1子コメント)

Devil's advocate: This argument doesn't work. Because they can say that you compare a "real-rape"-accusation (which is news worthy) with a "not-really-rape"-admittance (which is not news worthy). Zoe Quinn's definition of rape is bullshit and not the legal frame work, so you don't have to report it. Whether somebody has admitted to or has been accused of "not-really-rape" is not news-worthy. It's just relationship cheating.

The correct argument to force a report on this story is, that it has included corruption/nepotism/favors from journalists. The rape angle doesn't work.

The social justice scene is toxic, dangerous, and ought to be confronted. It feels like a bad case of projection wherein you claim victim-hood, all the while victimizing your alleged aggressor. Then when people reply you use that as proof that you were the victim in the first place.

This isn't the first scene they've infiltrated and caused ruination. The first -- that I know of -- what the atheist movement. That quickly descended into 'dongle-gate', the same ol' victim-hood routine, followed up by trying to push their agenda. Their willingness to claim false rape accusation, peddle lies to their audience, and use their sexuality to gain an edge is disgusting. Just think about it, these people are willing to falsely claim rape to support their own cause against innocent parties who previously supported them. They are willing to attempt to cause utter ruination of a person's life and reputation if it means they will succeed.

Feminists, in my estimation, should be ashamed of people like Z.Q, Anita, and the like. Their movement is predicated upon the power of the individual women. Only to have supported spokespeople turn out to be frauds willingly to sink to any level to prove their point. These people have assumed a conclusion and will do anything to make it so; including lying, cheating (in this case, literally), stealing, fake doxxing, and acting as agent provocateurs.

This is shameful, and sets back the cause of equality by shining a poor light on those who the community has rallied to support.

Please support The Fine Young Capitalists. The group Z.Q. doxxed, blackmailed, and played victim to in their effort to support women in gaming!

Another post, here, on this topic I found to be succinct.

In essence: The act of numerous news organizations, Reddit, 4chan, and others to try to censor this -- now this is power, this is privilege.

Which is a damn shame. The business owners are going out of their way, when they didn't have to do anything, to support women in gaming. They were tired of hearing how women were always victims, and wanted to give them an opportunity to show they could make awesome games.

And what happened you may ask?

They were doxxed, black-balled, and claimed to be oppressive by not giving Z.Q. money.

All this says to myself, an impartial 3rd party is this: Don't try to help women, you can't win, and when you try you'll be threatened and harassed.

Yet as we've seen if you disagree -- even if you still believe and support in equality; as I do -- then you are mocked, derided, and risk your livelihood for merely disagreeing. These same 'SJW' accused Micheal Shermer, prominent atheist, of being a rapist.

[–]sidewalkchalked 18 ポイント19 ポイント  (6子コメント)

I've seen the SJW described as a cult, I think it's pretty accurate. They prey on people who have troubles in their past, enforce a strict ideology, and any deviation (not from the ideology, which is nebulous, but from the GROUP) you are beaten down and shamed publicly.

Strangely third wave feminism has influence in politics and universities, despite this (or maybe because of) this toxic environment.

[–]live_free 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (4子コメント)

I believe it to be more akin to a religion with central, yet nebulous, tenants and dogma the adherents mustn't question.

You are correct in your last point. You can even get a 'degree' in the subject. These crazies are literally being produced from our universities using our tax dollars. Undoubtedly the stories of these brave females surviving the internet's misogyny will make their way into classrooms where they will be used as proof of the patriarchy. I wish I was kidding, I've taken classes that have done just that -- albeit in a more political sense.

[–]sidewalkchalked 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (3子コメント)

Right. I mean all you have to do is look at how they respond to criticism. "Racist" "Misogynistic." "Rapist."

My two favorite people in this world are my wife and my mother. I have huge respect for women and the ways in which they are strong and thoughtful and brave.

But suddenly because I oppose something that these people personally did, I'm a bigot.

Who elected them as the priest class over us that declares who is and who is not a sinner? Do I need to buy indulgences to prove I'm loyal, as well?

This shit is toxic and although I'm not a games guy, it has my attention because this shit could creep into other industries and facets of life. It's not about games, anymore.

[–]live_free 4 ポイント5 ポイント  (1子コメント)

First it was atheism, now it has becomes the games industry. Can you sense the slow creep?

It is all about elimination of merit in favor of personal demographics.

[–]sidewalkchalked 2 ポイント3 ポイント  (0子コメント)

I imagine it's a lot of other things too. It's "apology culture," where saying the wrong word in a comedy routine or a talk show appearance induces this faceless rage that is career-threatening. It definitely exists in schools and workplaces, where people who hold these opinions get small amounts of power and use it to push their agenda. It exists in politics, where politicians realize that this vocal minority is good for mobilization, and use them to push whatever agenda seems good to get votes and publicity.

We're all just accepting this, we're SCARED by it. It's like McCarthyism, but it's not imposed from the top-down, it's bottom-up, which makes it even more insidious.

These people claim they're ushering in a brave new world in which no one will ever get their feelings hurt again, but in reality they are creating a priesthood of PEOPLE that get to decide who gets the rage and who doesn't based on personal connections, identity, gender, and so on.

Ridiculous. It's certainly not an internet-only issue.

[–]live_free 1 ポイント2 ポイント  (0子コメント)

In addition these same groups (minorities, creeds, religions, sexualities, genders, etc) cannot be racist or sexist. It is actually taught in university classrooms across this country that racism is prejudice in addition to power. And because these groups do not have power, they therefore cannot be racist or sexist.

It is a way of removing ones-self of any blame or criticism and enabling that same group to do the exact things they believe the 'powerful' are doing to them. This is simply projection at its finest. Racism, sexism, or any other form of discrimination can be looked at as an aggregate, this much is true, but to them subsume the aggregate 'analysis' unto the individual is foolish as any economist will readily tell you. Any 'hive-mind' that may exist is supported by the culmination of individual voices. This is what feminism, and to a more egregious extent 'Social Justice Warriors' have enabled themselves to do. That being move around the label of their alleged aggressors in an attempt to gain the 'throne' of aggression for themselves so they may hold the power all while feeling they've ascended to a moral high-ground.

This is dangerous, extremely dangerous. Not simply because it is foolish and simplistic, but because the rise to power of any unquestionable force (be it a government, or religion) starts in this very same manner.

Klepek and maybe Navarro are the only ones who care. They opened their Mon/Fri podcast with it today, likening anyone who disagrees with them to "evil forces". Maybe even something about necromancy? Get Vinny, Drew, Brad, Jeff, and Dan together right now and it wouldn't even come up.

I can't imagine Jeff cares about this enough to even address it. I'm sure he could stop it if he wanted but that would be wasting his time on stupid garbage he doesn't care about, and Jeff Gerstman doesn't waste his time on stupid garbage he doesn't care about.

Edit: Forgot to add that I actually had to turn off the podcast during their "intro". Patrick has only gotten worse since he joined in my opinion, pushing his SJW(I hate this term but don't know what else to call it)views and grievances on the site every chance he gets. I'm done with Patrick Klepek. There was a time where I actually missed him on the podcast, but now i'm glad he's gone.

The Escapist

But Yahztee... ;_;

and what did Penny Arcade do?

[–]ZeroStarx 11 ポイント12 ポイント  (1子コメント)

I've been shadowbanned for some strange reason

The Escapist is pretty shit. Let me show you a quote from the Escapist forums about Zoe Quinn from the EDITOR GREG TITO:

The escapist ran a story about Quinn's harassment in late 2013 with little evidence other than her word.

There is no breach in ethics.

Here is an imgur link of the post: http://i.imgur.com/XA6JqCM.png

And here is Zoe's Wikipedia talk page about how Escapist might be a biased source since the editor said that: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Zoe_Quinn#Source_Bias

I hate to be yet another "What's wrong with ___?" response, but, What's wrong with Gather Your Party? It's not even that big of a site, so I don't see much motivation for them to be scummy.

Not that I'm necessarily defending them from anything, I don't go to the site either. It's just that I thought the site was founded by people from /v/, so I thought if anything they'd just have shit taste, not be corrupt.

    You get what you pay for.

    I've lived so long without games journalism that it's irrelevant to me now.

    I'd suggest someone start a transparent, user-funded site with a paywall, but I'm not sure I even care anymore. Subconsciously I think I'm at the point where I can't care.

    I could be getting ahead of myself, but I think a lot of other people will get there. The interesting thing about SJWs is that they're quite effective at messaging and infiltration, but terrible at retention.

    It's like ISIS in Syria and Iraq. A small group of dedicated idealists use shock and awe to take over entire entities, but will they be able to hold on to them and manage them? What they end up doing is driving people out.

    Che Guevara was the same way. He was a revolutionary, not a manager. After he succeeded, he sought out more revolutions. His brand of social justice was to sow the seeds of change, not tend to the crop. The fatal flaw with social justice is that lots of people are liberal enough to want change, but not conservative enough to protect the change they effect.

    She won't be arrested for rape, because she didn't rape anybody according to US law, but rather her own beliefs. Still, some legal action would be sweet.

    She can be arrested for rape. She might not be convicted of it but she can be arrested.

    Also the man she raped can go to civil court. I'm sure that would be a fun judge judy case

    It's literally about In-N-Out. With Five Guys.

    Watch his previous video on YouTube. There's been an image gallery and some text posts explaining it, but for all of the things I've seen, you'll get all of the info from his videos.

    It's basically a war between SJWs who want to control industries (indie gaming, game blogging) and gamers who want to dismantle their power structures (oh, the irony).

    I doubt they can cherrypick a comment when the woman literally looks fugly. Her face is so plain and boring looking and the hair color really makes it stand out that much more. Why does she have all these albums of her stripping. Gross

    The tattoos, the piercings, the crazy haircolor, the implanted computerchip are all there to distract you from the plane, boring, untalanted and uninteresting, unkind and deceitful human being that Zoe Quinn truly is.

    I actually feel sorry for her. The cruel bitch that is DNA has fucked this chick over hard and I cant help but feel compassion.

    Can you imagine being this sad creature? I mean, having to fuck sjw gaming journalists, who are the epitome of beta, to get your shitty game some undeserved exposure, has to be the cause of some deep sorrow and many a sleepless night.

    That is, unless you just don't have any self respect.

      The reality is there isn't really an actual 'game industry' journalism. Sites like Kotaku aren't journalists, they're not even reporters.

      They're editorialists. They write things that make people click through to generate revenue. They KNOW that. So they write the most sensationalist thing they can.

      Sure, they act at being journalists. Sites like Kotaku started to fill a niche. I used to like them, but over the years they've jumped the shark.

      They went from what seemed like a fairly unbiased look at games to this clusterfuck we have today, which is anything but unbiased. I'm not even sure they believe half of what they write, I'm pretty sure they're just writing it because they know it will twist people up and invoke whatever emotional response they are trying to get out of people. Usually outrage. Because people LOVE to be outraged, especially at things that they want to believe.

      So yeah. Fuck Kotaku. Fuck sites LIKE Kotaku. They only exist because they were at the right place at the right time. I haven't been to their site for over a year, perhaps 18 months. I refuse to provide them any support. I hope in time they wither and die. But as long as they're publishing clickbait glitzy articles that rile up the mob...

      I doubt they'll be going anywhere.
