_"*I guess i had to do it if only because people are expecting me to do it. I didn’t even remember this was a thing till yesterday XD*"_ Had to add this because I thought that ppl would actually click the source link and look at the description after all this time
Like...is there any solution to this? Should we start something?

X Journalists would make claims of people like Anita Sarkeesian "playing video games all her life" when she openly admitted many times she is not a gamer and only starter recently (when it wasn't for an interview). Various developers trading sex or money for good reviews got exposed, journalists who accepted got exposed. People became a bit more critical about supporting a game just because the developer has a victim complex stating tat their game could have only failed because of sexism, instead of their own poor developing skills. What really sealed the deal was opposition often faking their own harassment. Anita sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn have been caught multiple times screenshotting "harassment" while showing that the harrasser's account name in the login. Or when someone called the police to help Sarkeesian against a "very real threat" she was posting about, only for police to find the harasser's messages were coming from her IP address. I just want honesty from the community, and the lies were mostly exposed by the "dreaded" gamergate. 1.3K views • View upvotes 26

"there is literally nothin else other than the misogyny"
Corruption of games journalists, massive censorship, smear campaigns and doxxing isn't my dictionary's definition of nothing.

'The "Fine Young Capitalists" controversy was purely a 4chan invention."
I don't believe anyone is stupid enough to believe that. But let suppose that you are that kind of idiot, then please tell me what 4chan has to gain by sinking money in a project they don't really care about? Also, was the hacking & deletion and invention too?

""Gamergate" […] was born 100% from that (Literally Who's gaboodagoo) and got 100% momentum from that."
No, it got momentum because of the censorship, the attack on a whole hobby and people lying in everyone's face so that they could cover their own asses and get uninformed supporters for their pathetic crusade.

Welp, time to stay away from Cracked now.
