Responses to Moviebob's latest episode

I've been your fan as long as youve been around. I've stood by your side during the good times and even the rocky times. I've been with you through The Simpsons is Still Funny "Heavens to Metroid" "Crass Effect" "After Mass" "Tropes vs. Moviebob" your "Rango" review and even your Last Airbender" review. I believed in you. I believed that, however controversial and nonconformist your opinion might be, at least your heart was in the right place and you had a different perspective that at least could be backed up. Hell, I don't even mind your biases half the time. I do think diversity and feminism are worth considering. I do think Michael Bay sucks and the audience supporting him sucks. I do think the Sony reboot of Spider-man is godawful. I do think Marvel is doing a better job than DC when it comes to translating comic book characters to the big screen But, it's here that I start to doubt you and even turn away from you. I dont mind if you are on the progressive side of What I do mind is the amount of vitriol and spew you have contributed to by dismissing your opponents and labeling them. You, who has been on the receiving end of persecution and bullying and torment for enjoying a hobby (comic books) and repeating that same behavior to those with dissenting opinions. You retweeting Devin Faraci's toxic attitude of "1 have more respect for ISIS than the Anti-Quinn people". These ends, however noble and forward-thinking, do not justify these means. Your behavior on Twitter is not something I approve of. I expect that king of behavior out of a 13 year old troll, a member of 4chan or the Anti-thinker. I don't expect that out of a journalist, a gaming, I dont mind if you do defend gaming journalists and even Zoe Quinn. I'm disappointed in you, Bob. I thought you were better than this I'm honestly more depressed the show's gotten so repetitive in the arguments made on the same Ive said before I follow gamergate mostly as it's been a nice way to hear about alternative commentators and websites. Why filter through Kotaku's off topic stuff when siliconera is all gaming and more in the genres I like anyway? Still I learn things. One of the fun ones was that for all the claims of it being right wing nutjobs, the political compas produces a picture like this http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/841842-gamergate Say what you will, it's mostly a very libertarian bunch, aka, don't tell us what to do types. Whilel have issues with that in extremes, I'm in the center of the big blob in the lower left corner myself and I do dig the mindset of leave me to my thing and Ill leave you to yours. However it puts to question your argument that we just dont know how not to be at war when, for whether gaming is a culture or not, you're still coming in, often full force, telling them what to do with full lack of understanding that these are people that f------ hate that. Worse, when people held to their libertarian leanings and didn't change, attacks, insults, and other attitudes that seemed to try and deprive that side of a voice, a say, or even the right to hold their views came out by people surprised by both that the world they entered didn't fold to their desires, and that insults didn't When the "cool kids showed up to join the hobby, it was to a group socially stunted, full of anxiety, phobias, and uneasy feelings. Instead of acknowledging that fact and trying to make the transition in as easy and comfortable as possible, they shouted exclusion, told us to just "get over" various levels of social anxiety disorder, and otherwise acted like anything we said or felt was When games started casualizing, particularly in difficulty, we voiced our concerns about altering IPs instead of creating new ones and exposed our values of reward earned through hard work. Instead of acknowledging that we have a voice too and offering some concession to what we'd like again, exclusion, the values called stupid and selfish, and mocked because (on their say so) we shouldn't take it all so seriously and just share everything formally held in prestige. (This applies to or Publishers and developers taking actions not in the consumers best interests is not uncommon It's part of capitalism, but we stopped getting even fake platitudes about valuing customers, and lies about how anything from DRM to always online, to showing no concern to how the audience will take your artistic vision before moving forward, are all actually in the customer's best interests Instead, we get called entitled for not just accepting what's given, called thieves, censors or worse and treated like our voice isn't even worth listening to Social issues are pretty obvious as people claim to want discussion, but shout misogynist, racist, homophobes, etc at any lack of total agreement. Ive been over this far too many times, and it still surprises me both at how many people come unprepared for rebuttal with more than mockery, and how many of those are surprised that mockery doesn't make people re-think what you've said. I got linked to this recently and it's a bit of food for thought: specifically covering how in a desire for "progressiveness", people turn a blind eye to the abuse they and others of their side spew. It mirrors my own thoughts in recent months as Ive realized that while I've ridiculed social commentary as Care Bear thinking, theyve missed an important rule from the show: to get friends, you have to be one. Going through this since yesterday, I have great trouble thinking of times empathy was shown to gamers, their concerns were weighed fairly, and less and less of times theyre even treated as human (sorry, there no amount of sorry that completely forgives comparisons to terrorist organizations), then they, and people like Bob can't figure out why we get mad. I mean, they're only asking us to change things we like, change our values, change ourselves, change how we think, and let our voice carry little to nothing, all for the reward of their company I don't have a colorful phrase for the level of stupid that must take to maintain 4. Okay, so now that the ACTUAL video started, we can start deconstructing it ( shouldn't even be bothering at this point ). For starters, if we need to keep arguing about what the term "Gamer" means, then you will never understand what things like Gamer Gate is ACTUALLY about. If you don't know what makes you a Gamer and what doesnt, you're likely one of those people who thought terms like "Nerd" and "Jock don't mean anything. You cant take out ALL meaning from one word and inject meaning into others. I could try to answer this question directly, but it's not really worth it. You need to understand basic language before we go into s--- like this and SJWs have proved themselves to not want any kind of ACTUAL discussion about this subject. For the record, arguing that the "war" is what originated the term "Gamer" is just silly and considering how subtle the integration of that term was, you need a little more prove than just a blanket statement 5. Gamers didn't learn "how not to be at war" because these f------ never stopped going after us If people like Anita and apparently the majority of game journalism just quit with their b------- and left us alone, we wouldn't need to "attack them. It's funny because every time I hear this argument, it sounds like you're talking about feminists since so many of them act as if it's still the 1950's going on and on about how apparently sad it was that middle-class white women couldn't vote. I'm f------ sick of their b------- victim-complex, but I would need a bigger platform than a forum to fully disclose my feelings and explanations behind that subject so ll sum it up like this Anyone, be it Anita or Jack, suggesting that we need to "think" about games to the point that certain ideas and even series of games are shamed away are practicing a form of censorship. Period. You being offended BY A F------ GAME should NOT matter to anyone and SJWs are trying to use Social Justice to MAKE their worthless feelings matter to the point that certain games risk not even being released in the states due to this s---. We almost lost Senren Kagura to these f------ and people seemed to conveniently forget that was even a controversy at the time The popular response to this would be to say that so little games have actually been censored or had their content altered based on the SJW outburst, but that's exactly it. Are we expected to wa until the problem is too deep to fix before addressing this nonsense? All I know is when ANY form of disagreement is viewed as "harassment", rationality has been completely thrown out the window. Ya know, I'm actually glad Gamer Gate happened because it's the tipping point to an issue I've seen grow over the past 2 years and serves as great talking point for why s--- like Social Justice is so toxic. I originally intended to make video about Bob and explain exactly how and why his show got so terrible, but I'm revising the hell outta that s--- to make it more about Gamer Gate and supporters of Social Justice in general because we need as many sane voices as possible explaining why this backlash is happening because apparently InternetAristocrat wasn't enough fo these people. Lastly, the oh-so-evil hijackers spreading their evil agenda...we know you're talking about Republicans and The Sarkeesian Effect project. We aren't that stupid

What is GamerGate? A non-violent, non-discriminatory, consumer revolt led by gamers utilizing boycotts as a means of demanding ethics and eliminating nepotism in gaming journalism Who is George Reese? An executive with Dell Computers George Reese @GeorgeReese The #GamerGate cabal are the technology world's ISIS. 10/6/14, 5:01 AM from Plymouth, MN What is the problem? This gentleman trivilized the violent murders of innocent people, most of whom were trying to provide relief for civilians in war-torn countries, for the sole purpose of discrediting something as harmless as a consumer revolt. The irony?

The irony?
