MOTIVATIONYou're KILLING IT gg/kia. (self.KotakuInAction)

TerribleFateTerrible が 投稿

Long time supporter here, had to drop out due to personal business, but I just wanted to give you guys some perspective. Feel free to ignore this if you've pat yourself on the back enough to day.

You guys are completely killing it.

I know that GG won't end with a victory parade, but wow you guys are doing well. No one will end up thanking you by name, no one will say "GamerGate made this possible", but every one of you knows what happened.

All the anti's and corrupt journalists are starting to fall. Less support, less power to "strong-arm" with their veiled threats and rabble rousing articles. People like Leigh are being exposed for the bullies they are. And before you say "that's not games journalism"- yes, yes it is. She's bragged about booting possibly good games journalists out of the industry; we're allowed to celebrate her fall in power because it gives rise to better journalists. Watch her argue like a baby on twitter and then comes the time...

More and more people are declaring sites like Kotaku and Polygon complete garbage. With things like The Witcher argument? Bravo. You know we all think about things like "ya but Protein World fighting SJW's would have happened on it's own. And games journalism was already going to shit"

Consider this; if this hadn't happened so early, there would be 10x the amount of people afraid to disagree with "Witcher is racist" statements. The strong-arm of shame technique would have gotten way more attention instead of rebuttals. Left unchallenged, way more people would have gone with "racist Witcher" theories- but now everything's under close inspection. Throwing out that's racist isn't a cure-all, it doesn't end arguments. And tons, and I mean tons, of devs and important figures are speaking up about it.

This is an unreal achievement. Before, when 10 devs or game industry figures felt like a Polygon article was race baiting or nonsense that would lead to censorship, only 2 spoke up, and they were shamed and labeled nonsense terms until the other 8 were afraid to voice their opinions. Our push has made it possible for at least a few more of these hypothetical 10 feel comfortable exercising their freedom of speech. I promise you, without the effects of GG far fewer people would be speaking up to defend CD Projekt Red's right to artistic freedom.

(ps please read my responses to this post if you're confused by my definition of artistic freedom)

. You know they say Gawker is too big to be taken down, their click bait too popular and media shared. It's a bit of a testament to the strength of gamers that we'll manage to take down their entire gaming department. Polygons days seem limited. Even if they last a few more years, no one there will be making money.

TLDR; Way to go unsung heroes. Celebrated or not, you leaders are the important catalyst that allowed people to speak up against "the illiberal left". Stay awesome.

.

.

PS, SJW/Semi Unrelated; did you hear Mattress Girl has an "artistic re-enactment" sex tape? (now an archive) And people are still defending and supporting her calling it an art piece? Holy fuck these people are mad.

I'm a pretty casual gamer who made this throwaway because I was interested in the sociology of GG (I think Allum Bokhari is great on this), and I want to back this up. Not so much in the realm of games as a general statement.

ShirtStorm was a peaking moment in outrage journalism, and having watched it play out, this sub was uniquely responsible for it getting out there. GG and like-minded individuals helped push back on behalf of Charlie Hebdo when places like Gawker went to smear. GG might well have helped to break the Gawker-style clickbait model, in general, if David Auerbach is to be believed. I've watched the terminology and mindset of GG (not just "SJW", though that's part of it) trickle up into more and more common attitudes and accepted mindsets. I doubt Jonathan Chait knows much if anything about GG, he might well buy the media narrative for all I know, but I sincerely don't think he writes a big article against political correctness without GG's subtle influence in the background. Even more, I don't think fucking Vox jumps on the "college liberals are crazy" bandwagon without GG opening that line of thought; which, it can't be overstated, was considered an absurd statement of hidden bigotry as recently as October.

And don't underestimate the value of those FTC disclosure rules, every two-bit site (and some respectable ones!) were on a slow path to making advertised content invisible alongside substantive content, and we specifically called that out and put a break on it. And you've done this while helping to set up outlets which better speak to the average gamer....but that's getting back into the games world. :P

I agree with Milo when he says GG won most of the original battles they were focused on. Now we're a consistent watchdog, on the lookout for cronyism to call out, shitty editorials to mock, dumb hashtag activism to derail/shitpost/Banepost (we need more Baneposting imho), the Free Speech But crew to debate, and bad statistics in the pursuit of narratives to refute.

I do think the SJWs have succeeded in making the name "GamerGate" toxic to the mainstream, and in their world of language being everything, they think that's a win. But they did this months upon months ago, mostly before the victories. So who gives a shit?

Keep at it, you reactionary misogynists. This circlejerk thread is earned.

Sulkowicz also presents the viewer with a series of questions to ask themselves before, during, and after their experience of viewing the film, including "Are you searching for proof? Proof of what?," "What do you want from this experience?," "How well do you think you know me? Have we ever met?," and "Do you refuse to see me as either a human being or a victim? If so, why? Is it to deny me agency and thus further victimize me? If so, what do you think of the fact that you owe your ability to do so to me, since I'm the one who took a risk and made myself vulnerable in the first place?"

yeah. No way this is legit.

edit: I meant her story, not this video being a thing.

[–]TheChiefLunatic 17ポイント18ポイント  (35子コメント)

It actually seems to be. Cathy Young tweeted about this yesterday. It's bizarre either way.

[–]anticensureadvocate 28ポイント29ポイント  (34子コメント)

I meant her story in general. I absolutely believe she made the video. I can't wait for her story to fall apart in the courtroom and have the sjws turn on her. Oh right, they'll just switch modes to bullshedding like they did with jackie.

[–]EliteFourScott 53ポイント54ポイント  (28子コメント)

  1. Her stories will never reach the courtroom. The guy didn't even get arrested.

  2. SJWs don't consider the courts' opinion valid. They never "turned on" Ellen Pao after all. Besides, no accusation of rape, is ever, EVER false.

Not trying to be combatitive or a killjoy but I think these points are important to keep in mind, particularly the second one whcih applies to many cases.

[–]Sarthax 43ポイント44ポイント  (2子コメント)

That Ellen Pao bit really irks me. NPR was blasting how her case was a landmark advancement for women even after she lost. The narrative was predecided and even when it was shown to be completely unfounded they kept on trucking blasting stories about her. She was the tech world darling trying to "stick it to boy's club" and nothing was going to change that. Even when shown to be a liar.

You can't change these people's mind as it's already predetermined no matter the facts or outcome.

Yeah, honestly that's why I don't bother to try. Doesn't mean the debate isn't still worth it, to me, though, purely because the more you engage these people the more the crazy becomes apparent to anyone reading who might be on the fence.

It's the reason they censor comments and call opposing opinions it harassment - they know they get eaten alive and look like fools when someone's allowed to debate them, and debate often isn't about changing your opponent's mind, but convincing the audience.

It's sad.

He's not. He's suing the school, the girl's art teacher, and various agents of the school (president, "trustees" and such).

[–]anticensureadvocate 3ポイント4ポイント  (6子コメント)

Thanks for clarifying

[–]throwaway823746 18ポイント19ポイント  (4子コメント)

This is a copy of the lawsuit he's bringing against the school.

Essentially his argument is that school didn't maintain confidentiality for him when the girl tried to ruin his reputation. It claims she tried to get him expelled via multiple rape accusations (he was found "not responsible" three times), and when the school wouldn't ruin his life for her she turned to the media to smear him. The school should have kept the details of the accusations confidential, but didn't do a good enough job so his name got out to the media. He's not suing her directly for anything.

[–]TerribleFateTerrible[S] 16ポイント17ポイント  (3子コメント)

He doesn't care to go after her directly, even if her fathers worth something she isn't.

He's also going after the school for enabling her- A "liberal arts teacher" gave school credit for attending her protest, legitimizing her rape claims. It was also mentioned a school publication talked about her rape as if it was factual.

Basically the school legitimized it in a few ways despite it being dis-proven by the school themselves. AKA, wow someone should have cracked down on the arts teacher/ publication and was just too afraid of sjw backlash.

[–]Bladecutter 5ポイント6ポイント  (1子コメント)

This shit annoys me the most I think. These things shouldn't be enabled like that. I mean, the justice system got problems, but it's what we have right now, and I abide by the "innocent until proven guilty" thing since it makes the most sense to me. But what I keep seeing happen is people rocking the "guilty until proven innocent, and then still guilty so we have to take justice in to our own hands" approach. Which renders the whole system pointless.

She may end up in court anyway - as a witness in the proceedings between the guy and the school. If the school has to defend itself against his charge, it may be in their interests to get her on the stand. Imagine both sides ripping her story to shreds under oath.

It might come up in court. The guy is suing their school for not doing anything about her defaming him and essentially launching a harassment campaign against him.

[–]EliteFourScott 1ポイント2ポイント  (2子コメント)

She and her parents are hassling the school for "not taking enough action", so I would be surprised if she came to the defense of the school, but that's purely gut speculation on my part.

[–]snow-siren 3ポイント4ポイント  (1子コメント)

Well, the claim in his case is that the school did nothing to stop her or protect him, and some staff actively encouraged her. By her account it was an art professor who approved of her mattress idea, so I can see her trying to defend them in his case.

As for the school not taking enough action, they and the police both investigated the dude. If the actual law said he was in the clear, and with plenty of people vocally calling her out for the school to see, I have high hopes that they'll continue to ignore her, just as the dean did when it was time to shake all of the students hands at graduation.

[–]sinnodrak 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

The kangaroo court of the university doesn't even have the criminal standard (beyond reasonable doubt), and functions on the "more likely than not" standard. They found it more likely than not that he did not rape her.

They found it more likely than not that all 3 claims brought against him (by friends and associates of hers) were not true.

And they still fucking cling to this like she's some kind of goddamned hero, rather than someone who is in all likelihood mentally ill.

This nonsense about "don't judge how people deal with their trauma" has gone a bit too far. Most people who abuse others were abused or traumatized themselves. You know what? I still fucking judge them for any abusive or violent behavior they engage in, as we all should. If you're dealing with your issues in a way that is not only unhealthy for you, but those around you, somebody needs to tell you, and the public at large certainly doesn't need to be party to enabling your downward spiral.

That's exactly what this shit is, its a downward spiral that was enabled by the people around her, the school, her teachers, and everyone who said "oh I guess I can't really give my input on how she's dealing with what she went through." Not only do they assume she's telling the truth, but they assume they cannot criticize anything she does because it would interfere with her coping, which is completely fucking stupid.

Don't count on it. The procedural matters, particularly the police dismissing the complaint as unsubstantiated and the university's continued enablement, are what matters, not the details of Emma's personal account.

The issue will be the school allowing her behavior to continue after the police determined there was no case. The individual details aren't likely to be relevant; what matters is that the school enabled her after the boy was essentially cleared by law enforcement.

thankfully the police weren't idiots and looked at the chat logs, so it's common knowledge to every rational person that she has some sort of personality disorder and came up with the rape claim to "get back" at her ex

nothing she says was validated, and her constant attention whoring comes across more as an attempt at infamy than the actions of a victim

This used to be a comment, made for a totally different thread.

Thanks for the input though, OP.

I think your assertion is overall pretty accurate. A lot of different point get brought up here and some of it isn't always all that important or doesn't hit the right note, ideas get discussed and good ideas and arguments are able to spread easily and penetrate the larger culture. As I've said before, while I generally appreciate the community here I don't really consider myself a GamerGater, but simply a gamer ( a comic book fand & a ...). We are mostly in tune and embedded within the culture and when our arguments are formulated in concise, nonhyperbolic manner they are genreally mirroring mainstream and even sensible progressive positions.

David Auerbach also alluded to this when he wrote about how other political groups didn't hijack GamerGate, but adopted our arguments ands strategies. He went so far as to speculate that Hillary Clinton will have her Sista Souljah moment in response to the authoritarian left, something First lady Michelle Obama already did in her Oberlin commencement speech.

Game on, friends.

Kinda been wanting to say this over the past few weeks, but I never thought it warranted it's own post.

Gaming is moving into "hype-season" for the summer, which means a few things.

-The far off topic stuff (here and elsewhere) is going to start being replaced with influxes of new issues, ethical breaches, sensationalist BS, shitty Publisher/Developer practices.

-The bitching and moaning about off topic content (from both sides) will slow or disappear in the wake of larger issues/happenings.

[–]Nonbeing 6ポイント7ポイント  (7子コメント)

Hey, the two are not mutually exclusive. I'm a Gator, yet I think the 8 hour day/5 day workweek is absurd (as a tired, beaten down, demoralized American belonging to the "working poor" class).

In my (subjective) opinion, "full time" should be between 30 and 35 hours a week. I would love to (enthusiastically) work any shitty job if my schedule was, say, 6 or 7 hours a day for 5 days a week, or even 8 or 9 hours a day for 4 days a week.

It goes without saying that people who work jobs of passion would work as long and as much as they wanted. But I sincerely believe that it is ridiculous to take over half of an adult's waking life away making him do something he hates just so he can survive ("over half" due to commute times and mandatory lunch breaks, etc).

Being the meritocracy minded folks I know people are around here, I don't expect this comment to be received well... but I've seen comments in this sub a hundred times about how our opposition is lazy and they don't work "enough" (because apparently there is a precisely defined number for how long constitutes "enough"). I had to finally chime in with a different perspective.

Full disclosure: I work a full time 40 hour week job for a few dollars above minimum wage. And it isn't some cushy gig like churning out clickbait diarrhea. Just mind numbing, soul draining data entry. Often with mandatory overtime. Just so it's clear that a) I am arguing from a position of someone with a real job, and b) who has worked it long enough to realize that "real" jobs are shit and drastic reforms/worker's protections are necessary. If only there were a way to collectively bargain with management...

And preemptively: yes, I realize upward mobility is a thing, but a) these days, it's getting more and more difficult, through external and/or artificial means, and b) someone still has to clean the toilets (aka anyone can be a millionaire but not everyone can be a millionaire).

Edit - loved your post OP, sorry for the tangential rant. I fully support the good work we (GG) have done and a morale boost is always appreciated!

As much shit as you might think you deserve for being a lowly data entry drone, it's a skill you're developing that is salable. You just have to find an office that'll treat you right if you're good enough.

I do data entry too for an invoice/accounts payable outsourcing company, and I'm pretty damn good at it, both in terms of being a quick typist and being able to quickly identify what I'm looking at and know where to find the relevant information. I've gotten to the point where my boss doesn't even mind that the entire day, I've got my phone propped up beneath the monitor running youtube or netflix or whatever (via the office wi-fi), just because I keep my numbers better than anyone else on the team.

Good luck finding someone who respects the work you can do and will reward it, they're out there.

She's obviously messed up but at this point it is the media who should be paying for her counselling. Their slap-dash 'journalism' has screwed up her life by magnifying the case (And her lying) to such as extent she's likely never going to recover from this. This "art" of hers is the first sign of her suicide when she finally clocks in to what damage she's done to herself in the long term.

And let's not forget the man she accused of the rape, where's his big "Sorry for screwing up your life when you had nothing to do with our dredging for stories to fit our narrative"?

It's not our fault that people are losing confidence of gaming journalism. They did this to themselves. They got greedy.

NICE. For simply defending CD Projekt Red's right to produce their own content I've been tagged with a

TRIGGER WARNING!!

Oh what a lovely day! By the way, I'm polite for a few posts longer than that before saying that "dick" comment too <3

I credit the Law and Order episode with making GG explode in the mainstream. Intimidation Game was a 20 minute professionally produced and acted adaptation of anti-GG's narrative that flawlessly illustrated how categorically insane it is. Its air date was the day the narrative died.

Guys, remember that time GamerGate was going to die because Destiny was released?

I remember when they said GG would die because of Dragon Age: Inquisition. The funny thing is, it looks like aGG is dying, in part, because of Wild Hunt.

Destiny is dead. Destiny doesn't have to be your MMO FPS.

In the small town where I live, I just passed a hair salon with a sign reading "is your hair beach body ready?" with a little drawing of a woman at the beach. Maybe the tide is turning.

Don't get me wrong, GG has done a lot, and great things have happened, but some of the more very recent results we have seen are not directly GG. I think Polygon's "all video games are stupid" article is what broke the camel's back for a lot of people. What I'm trying to say is, they are doing it to themselves. Maybe we've helped by drawing attention to it and such, but these idiot bloggers are clueless and this was a long time coming.

Yeah, I feel that GG didn't necessarily cause a lot of these recent pushbacks against the corruption of SJWism and the New Media we've seen, but it has helped give silent birth to them. Hopefully, future internet historians will recognize GG's vital importance,

you are right, shame tactics affect lot of people who have no guts to for, their own opinion and just follow what' make them look better in the society.

whe should have started it a couple of years in advance because now it's going to be a long battle as they have infiltrated a lot of gaming websites and organizations and fooled many gamers and developers.

I'm just glad to see Gamergate happened. I would shiver to see the Neogaf rule applied to the entire internet.

Thanks, we really forget sometimes what we achieved, so it's a good thing when somebody steps up and says "Hey, you guys and gals, you did great".

Edit: This "artpiece" of matress girl? Why the hell is this even newsworthy (not adressing you directly with that)? It's a poor piece of amateur porn, nothing more.
