What a brilliant article.
Yes, it's full of blatant lies.
Gjoni was upset about the break-up and decided to get revenge upon Quinn
Number 1: Gjoni was not upset about the break up, he was upset over being cheated on five times. But I understand that acknowledging this would undermine your narrative.
Before the year was out, a game promoting physical violence against Sarkeesian was released [8].
Numer 2: The game was not promoting anything: it was political protest against Sarkeesian and other censors. The creator of the game had also created a "Beat Up Jack Thompson" game . But you never hear them complaining about that, for obvious reasons. In fact, Leigh Alexander (who is also on record as encouraging a 'violent cultural backlash' against black men) cheered reports of Jack Thompson's heart problems.
Long-time SRD user david-me (creator of KiA sub) was often at the center to either play devil’s advocate or to join in the dogpiling against
/r/ainbow
[14]
Number 3: Linking to a SRD thread that does not show any such thing.
The harassment campaign began on 4chan, which began to spread false rumors stating that Quinn had traded sexual favors with gaming journalists for favorable coverage of her game Depression Quest [16], [17], despite the rumor being patently false
[18].
Number 4: Apparently, what proves that the
fact
that Nathan Grayson gave favorable coverage to a game whose author he was screwing is a 'patently false rumor' is an opinion piece by Kotaku's Editor-in-Chief Stephen Totilo. Kotaku investigated itself and found no wrongdoing.
It’s important to touch on this as well, as KiA is notorious for their antics in which they try to draw attention away from the negative things GG has led to (like death threats, general threats of violence at conferences,
bomb threats
Number 5
(this is a big one): his 'proof' that Gamergate sends bomb threats is the bomb threat sent to Airplay. Yeah, they're that dumb. No doubt next they'll be citing 9/11 as an example of American terrorism against Muslims.
and one particular unstable individual who was a leader in the GG movement who operated multiple alt identities in an effort to support the movement). Much
Any woman who has come forward to support Sarkeesian or Quinn has been met with the same hatred directed at the two. Brianna Wu, for instance, has become an often target for KiA. The sub even has terms for them to further denigrate them and make them appear as subhuman by referring to Wu as “Literally Who” or LW for short.
Number 7: All three are referred to as Literally Who and it is meant to refer to their insignificance, not their being subhuman (though they certainly do not act like decent human beings).
Ah yes, an actual safe space for sexual assault victims that actively keeps out the misogynist trash that wants to tell them it’s their fault for getting assaulted
Number 8: Gamergate doesn't tell sexual assault victims that it's their fault. You did, in Cologne. You lied to people in
/r/rapecounseling
in order to get people you don't like banned. Fortunately, the mods genuinely cared about victims and when they found out about your lies, they removed KIA from the ban list.
Actually, it's about Social Justice in denying rape victims counseling.
They defended Trump supporters that groped a 19-year-old girl and then pepper spray her in the face. (...) KiA perpetrating rape culture, who woulda thunk? They sure are awfully scared of a 19-year-old girl though (although that could sum up the movement in its entirety).
