Where Are They Now? Here's What 'Big Ed' From '90 Day Fiancé' Has Been Up To Since His Infamous Reality TV Show Stint
![| Discuss|on]Now you see why #GamerGate matters (self. KotakulnAction) submitted 14 hours For months now you've seen it here and there. "Hategroup GamerGate uses excuse of ethical gaming journalism to harass women out of gaming." "Whatever", you think. Sure, gaming journalism sucks, but that seems like a mess, so l'm not getting involved. Or maybe you don't think gaming journalism is relevant anymore, and your solution is to just not go to any of these sites. Why raise a fuss? Or maybe you thought it was a cause worth getting invested in, but too many bad eggs in the bunch ruined it. Why care? Why put forth the effort? It'il d Now you've seen why it does matter. As many people on KotakulnActi peoplell argue that GamerGate is only just about that, and this attached culture war is only connected in small ways. However, as GamerGate drew on and on, we saw first hand just how far this network spreads. It woke many of us up. I never liked the term "taking the red pill because it seemed to make it more dramatic than it really seemed, but after being exposed to everything, that's exactly what it is. There's a moment in this mess where suddenly, all those more outlandish claims became true, and even went beyond what people said. Many times, truth was stranger than fiction ave learned, this goes far beyond gaming journalism. Some re liars. Th the ir sexual ide ave them believe that the them from ever being successful, no matter how hard they might try. So why bother? Instead, take up arms. Become an army. Become You thought GamerGate might not effect you. You still play good games. You still have fun. Sure, some games might be s---, and launches f----- up, but there's still those gems out there you love. But this isn't just about video games. And you see it noW. You see the tip of the ice berg and you're starting to make all the connections. You might have been surprised at first, finding your way to KotakulnAction, thinking "Why was a thread on 'all? Why are a bunch of gators talking about this?" Then you looked around. You didn't see any harassment. You didn't see any women being targeted. You saw discussions. Debate. Concerns. You saw threads talking about censorship, ethics, science fiction and fantasy books KotakulnAction's days a umbered. This new policy of banning subreddits d assment was the perfect sh it on its way out. GamerGat s been labeled as misogynist harassers from the start, and that label exte KotakulnAction, even though there's never been any proof of this. Do you want to see how easy it is to label this group as harassers? Brianna Wu is a self proclaimed "target" of GamerGate. She spent months trying to instigate GamerGate comments and images. Then, in October, she finally got GamerGate to take the bait. She used a meme generator to poke fun at GamerGate comments, much in the vein of Wu's originals. Some went too f board d several users on 8chan's Igg/ board did what they do best. Shitpost. They flooded the meme generator with trolling it posts. Igg/ was talking about this on thei but most of them we ng her reac the memes, someone, without being asked, posts person eported the elease, and many people called out the post. Within minutes, Wu the f GamerGate t the board's own rules, without anyon r the tweeted tha somehow wa board, and GamerGa afte threats by a newly created Twitter account, that mentioned some of the person labeling GamerGate and 8clh tegroup. Many within GamerGate believe s posted even made the Twitter acc ounce of evidenc f that, but at the same time the n ounce of evidence to support it being the intent of GamerGate possible two, people. No r media outlets copied what they said, and published their own stories. GamerGate had reached some main stream media before this event, but this is the moment when the reach spread far and wide, and even main stream media outlets had GamerGate pegged as a hate group I have found the archived thread where her dox was posted, so you can see for yourself what happened. You'll notice the post containing the dox was removed, because it was deleted within a few minutes (but not before Wu made her Twitter post blaming them), but here's a screenshot of it. You can see exactly where it fit into the thread, and how the thread reacted to it. So now you see how easy it can be to paint a subreddit as a harassment/hate group. All you need is one account, one person, to post something against the board's rules. Reddit claims they will only delete subreddits where their moderators aren't doing what they n to stop these sort of posts, but /gg/ did a good job of stamping out calls to harassment getting smeared on national TV, which is used in Wikipedia as a source to prove GamerGate's a hategroup.
