![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. Ignore every gender discussion on that subreddit. FAVORITES 38 38 5:50 PM- 3 Dec 2014](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/874/404/e42.png "I got mass downvoted. That must mean gamer are truly sexist")
