Jackie Brown @GOBBBluth Follow Ghaziers slowly come to the troubling realization that they aren't a majority. #GamerGate I outed a couple of Gators in an /r/games thread and now I'm being brigaded. sameGha Not & call to arms, not a call for sympathy. Just want to put it on the record as another piece of evidence to be sifted through years from now. There is an /r/games thread about GTAV being taken off the shelves at Target in Australia due to violence against women. One poster there came out with some stock standard MRA s--- so I made a PSA that he was a regular poster to /r/mensnghts and to take that for what it's worth. Nothing more. Then an obiou$ Gator showed up and I did the same. Now it appears that my comment history has been downvote-brigaded and they are "counter-opping" by outing me as a ghazi, circlebroke and negareddit poster as if that is somehow shameful. I was debating posting at all but I thought it was useful information people might want to know about those people (Who didn't fully disclose thein affiliation which I found to be somewhat unethical, l must say.) before 901ng off and agreeing with them which could have created a bigger mess. i probably shouldnt have said anything, but it's done now and here i am. Either way, I just want a permanent record somewhere since it will all come into play in the future when this whole flasco is further documented. Have a good one! 个 [-] santsi 14owos 2 hours ago" I'm glad you brought this up. From what I've seen all the major gaming subreddits are overrun by pro-gg opinion. They could be brigading but it's probably just the majority opinion, which kind of proves this whole "gamers are sexists" thing. Try stating some criticism about gg in the most neutral tone you can and I can guarantee you'll still get downvoted. Hell, just pointing out how Daniel Vávra has right-wing history got me downvoted to -37 个(-) snorberrydriveby Sodal hstoe NPC 12 ouas an hour ago Games is horrible, overrun with angry children that hate women because they didn't jump into bed with them.

NOTHING HAS F------ CHANGED 10
Gamergate (harassment campaign) Article Talk From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For other uses, see Gamergate (disambiguation). Gamergate or GamerGate (GG)[¹] was a loosely organized misogynistic online harassment campaign and a right-wing backlash against feminism, diversity, and progressivism in video game culture. [2][³] It was conducted using the hashtag "#Gamergate" primarily in 2014 and 2015.[1][4][5][6] Beginning in August 2014, Gamergate targeted women in the video game industry, most notably feminist media critic Anita Sarkeesian and video game developers Zoë Quinn and Brianna Wu, among others.[7][8][9][10][11] The harassment campaign included doxing, r--- threats, and death threats.[12][13][14] Gamergate proponents ("Gamergaters") stated that they were a social movement, but lacked well-defined goals, a coherent message, and leaders, making Gamergate difficult to define.[15][16][17] Gamergaters claimed to promote ethics in video games journalism, claimed to be protecting the "gamer" identity, and opposed what they asserted as "political correctness" in video games.[18][19][20][21][22] Read Date Target Gamergate, online harassment campaign in 2014-15 that targeted women in the video game industry. The attacks were attributed largely to white male right-wing gamers who railed against the rise and influence of women and feminism in the industry. Gamergate served as a recruiting tool for the growing alt-right movement and helped spur the online “Pizzagate" conspiracy theory, which soon spawned the wider QAnon conspiracy movement. …………………………....…..……….….....

[2][36] Gamergate led figures both inside and outside the gaming industry to focus on methods of addressing online harassment, ways to minimize harm, and prevent similar events. [37] [38] [39] [40] Gamergate has been viewed as a contributor to the alt-right and other right- wing movements.[21][41] Video game developer Brianna Wu

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
