The Problem with Political Extremes A Gamergater Analysis Cross Section Political Sphere Ri 18 Center Far right/left Far-Far- Left Turned 18 nter Definitions The far left and far right are more similar that you Far Right: Religious Fanaticism, authoritarian method might think! Similarities - Members act with zealotry in regards to ideology - Thinks "non-believers" are unworthy of debate - Thinks neutrals are part of or give way to the "non- believers - Censor critics by banning them from speaking or ensuring they are marginalized - Spread ideology to others in order to "save" them from Far Left: Radical Feminists obsessed with eliminating gender role obsessed with "oppression" and political correctness, totalitarian methoc s, SJW's oppression . -Obsessed with ideology to the point of injecting it anywhere they can - Condemn others of immoral behavior while usually engaging in immoral behavior in private - Believe their ideology is the only way that is correct to follow - Feels the need to protect females from the "male gaze". - Constantly intercedes of behalf of females in attempt to defend them and solve their problems for them - Willing to sacrifice truth and objectivity in order to maintain conformance to ideology - Regards those not in the ideology as "unclean" (neclk beard, shitlord, infidel, get it?) - Declares moral outrage at the most innocuous of events. - Pushes ideology on disintereseted third parties Now imagine if the current "Anti-Gamergate" aroup were aiven a piece of land to live on and practice their beliefs as they see fit... getting a good picture yet?

_"*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

I do try to bring this up when people say "its about ethics in journalism." I think GG is about ethics in journalism and this^ (and maybe a little bit about bullying/stereotyping/scapegoating).

I'd be fine if the SJWs just wanted to claim their niche in the gaming industry and make the games they want to play. Hell, maybe AAA devs would get in on the action too, that's fine. Capitalism intensifies, right? I mean, in the music industry, there have been plenty of bands that have had a clear political agenda and still were successful. Rage Against the Machine have raged all the way to the bank writing songs about how evil whitey is.

They just need to drop this whole "the entire industry needs to change to comply with our views even though we constitute a very small portion of the consumer base." If you don't like something, don't spend your money on it. I don't like Top 40 pop music or sappy rom coms, so I don't spend my money on those things. I'm not going to start a movement to try and get those things removed entirely because they aren't my cup of tea.
