It's okay that we fight. (self.KotakuInAction)

gekkozorz が 投稿

This weekend, GamerGate has reminded me of that that one Angelina Jolie movie. Spaghetti all over the place. Though I think worst of it's over now, I'm sure it will happen again at some point.

I just want to take this moment to remind the lovely members of our community that it's okay for us to fight because we're not a fucking hugbox.

If you state an opinion on Ghazi that deviates even slightly from their prevailing groupthink, they ban you. When feminists have a shitfight on Twitter, there's mass blockings. SJW hugboxes desperately need to be a part of some larger hivemind that can tell them what the "right thoughts", so it is very difficult for them to deal with dissent within their hugbox. Dissent is often simply not tolerated.

In GamerGate, we fight about stupid shit all the time. But then when a happening comes about, we'll go back to our battlestations and fight side-by-side. We can switch from PvP to co-op on a dime, and that's one of our many strengths.

Carry on.

I feel the Christian-bashing has gone too far

Haha, funny joke but we all know genesis won and sega give us the last great console... Dreamcast, I still play it to this day. No console had a better launch line up.

R.I.P. Sega

Moving out of my house soon so I ended up digging out a whole bunch of old stuff, a few days ago I found some of the Official Dreamcast Magazine issues (I had subscribed to it for the demos they came with). Reminded me how much I loved the damn thing. For a console that only lasted like 2 years, it had a ridiculously good run.

You didn't get the memo? I'm the leader of #GamerGate and anyone who ever disagrees with me is a SJW and/or a shill.

As the actual leader of gamergate, for the crime of impersonating the leader of gamergate, I sentence you to banishment to the shadows.

This.

An untested idea is a worthless one; only by challenging it though discussion and debate can we learn which ideas are good and which aren't.

Question everything, including your allies' ideas, and especially your own. Discard whatever crumbles under scrutiny, and keep whatever's still standing.

The thing that irks me more than the drama, is the people acting surprised that there's drama... Where the fuck you been for the last year people?

[–]reversememe [スコア非表示]  (1子コメント)

It shouldn't. It means we continue to genuinely attract new people.

nah, people see internet drama, people should expect more internet drama tbh.

"When do the ends justify the means?" is one of the best issues to have disagreement on within a movement, and that's what most of our infighting is ultimately about.

Should we go after the root causes of unethical gaming journalism at the risk of appearing to prove our detractors right that we're anti-feminist? Should we stand by our free speech principles absolutely, or compromise when it's someone like Vox Day? When our allies fuck up, what's the more important virtue, integrity, or loyalty? When does consistency become fanaticism? When does flexibility become hypocrisy? What tactics are acceptable when, and how far is too far?

When there is no dissent on the core moral questions that make up our very humanity, THAT is when we should be worried, because that's a recipe for an army of zealots.
