gamergate deserves some face time

GamerGate deserves some face time. My name is Michael Koretzky, and I'm a national board member with the Society of Professional Journalists- the world's largest organization for one of its least-respected professions Yesterday, I wrote about GamerGate after my fellow leaders refused to. They warned me that any whisper of the movement would get us doxed and stalked. Instead, I've been unable to keep up with all the fascinating comments, tweets, and emails offering passionate opinions, detailed corrections, and informative links. So far, the worst a GamerGater has called me is a "snooty hipster" (which is, I believe, redundant). Meanwhile, I've been called far worse by my fellow SPJ leaders. While I try to catch up on the correspondence, let me announce that SPJ will indeed delve deeper in GamerGate -in person. I'm recruiting rank-and-file SPJers to support a live- streamed panel discussion called AirPlay

GamerGate = Evil

What if I told you that today I Woke up, GamerGate is the hate movement that everyone has been telling me it is, why is it that GamerGate people have turned pro-gamergate even though the evidence that shows the movement to be evil is so blatantly obvious. It has become clear to me now that everybody who is pro- gamergate is affected by the force, their mind has been poisoned into believing they are fighting for a good cause. GamerGate usually tells people they can believe whatever they want and they should use their freedom to make up their own mind, well no f------ wonder they are as confident as they are when their freedom is affected by mind control. I stand today with irrefutable evidence, that GamerGate is a mob being controlled by the evil forces of the Sith Empire, it's actually the first army growing bigger and bigger each day until it overturns the world as a slave for the sith empire to use. I salute you Princess Leia, with my new founding about GamerGate being the Sith Empire. Now let's present, THE EVIDENCE! Recently there was a GamerGate meetup in DC, what might seem like an innocent meetup (though heroically interupted by the rebels even though intel of their plans was prematurely leaked) was actually an indoctrination process of sith mind control. Let's take a look at this at first seemingly-innocent picture Upon a first glance it looks like 3 adorable, sexy, beautiful, hot, lovely, awesome, intelligent and irresistable ladies having a good time, I noticed something highly unusual, their eyes seemed wrong, like they were in a trance, that's when I saw something when looked closer, check it out What are you trying to tell me" you ask, well can't you see? It's f------ Darth Vader! He was present at the meetup! people would believe it was jst a cos player, a prefect disguise, hiding in plain sightl But it's the real f------ dealll Here's a portrait of the guy, the resemblence is undeniable Of course nobody remembers that Darth Vader was there, because he's controlling their mind, but the article about the meetup from Cathy Young, who was exposed to GG at this very meetup and got indoctrinated there, just look at this line from her article which shows undeniable proof of her mind having been indoctrinated! if I had any doubts about defending GamerGate from its detractors, #GGnDC put them to rest The men I saw were not creeps, and the women i saw were definte not doormats. And while the bomb threat was fake, the meetup was a blast You see? If she had any doubts!!?? they have been "put to rest" How can you deny GamerGate being like the sith empire now! But hey, make up your own mind, just don't do it too late, or you might not have a mind to make up!

Current reports vary on if the event was attacked by a bomb threat, some other promise of violence, or both, but it remains clear that local police we concerned enough to ask the reported +300 #GamerGate "members" in attendance to leave the premises as they investigated the situation. A recent lecture by "feminist culture critic"/wonk Anita Sarkeesian was put to a disturbing and sudden end a few days ago. Current reports vary on if the event was attacked by a mass shooting threat, some other promise of violence, or both, but it remains clear that Ms Sarkeesian was concerned enough that she cancelled the event. As you might expect, accusations are currently being thrown back and forth across gaming's political isle as to whether the threats came from those who view #GamerGate as a hate group, or by "members" of #GamerGate themselves in order to help signal boost their "cause" and gain sympathy from would-be supporters As you might expect, accusations are currently being thrown back and forth across gaming's political isle as to whether the threats came from those who view Sarkeesian as puritanical and a professional victim, or by fans of Feminist Frequency themselves in order to help signal boost their "cause" and gain sympathy from would-be supporters Seeing as how both Hoff Summers and Yiannopoulos showed little-to-no visible interest in gaming prior to their apparent recognition of #GamerGate's signal boosting power (in fact, Yiannopoulos even went as far as to describe gamers in their 30s as "a bit tragic" not that long ago), it's easy to see why some are suspicious about this particular threat Regardless, the whole thing is a mess and we at Destructoid are grateful that no one was hurt. Seeing as how Anita Sarkeesian showed little-to-no visible interest in gaming prior to her apparent recognition of "Tropes vs. Women in Video Games" signal boosting power (in fact, Sarkeesian even went as far as to describe gamer culture as a pit of toxic masculinity" not that long ago), it's easy to see why some are suspicious about this particular threat. Regardless, the whole thing is a mess and we at Destructoid are grateful that no one was hurt. For more about Tropes vs Women in Video Games, and its origins as a Kickstarter scam that plagiarizes TVTropes, check out this recent video by Sargon of Akkad.

Allistair Pinsof's Comments on the Bomb Threat and the Game Media

Allistair vs Kotaku

Allistair Pinsof Jason Schreier /0215 6:55pm No mention of fellotw anti-GG critic Arhtur Chu's very public campaign to get this event stopped, which likely led to this bomb threat. Called Christina Hoff Sommers a "critic of liberal feminism even though she identifies herself as a liberal feminist who is against radicals. Mention Anita Sarkeesian and her doxxing that have barely any relevance to this article while forgoing mentioning Lizzyf who was doxxed and had her children threatened, which is why she stopped Tweeting about gamergate. Forgo details of meet-up and paint it in an ominous light, instead of quote attendees or link to videos of it (here's one if anyone is curious): I realize Kotaku wants to paint its critics in GG in a harsh light to retain its integrity, but when Kotaku's reporters do such an obvious job skewing the facts and editorializing the news, it just makes Kotaku lose even more integrity I'm indifferent to GG's knee-jerk response to radical feminism but Kotaku should have more respect to the standards of journalism and trust of its readers when reporting on any group, whether they share their views or not. If Kotaku's writers are so incapable of this, then don't report it and stick to video game news
