It's because I hate you. It's because I hate what you stand for. It's because I hate every video game/comic book/whatever nerd enthusiast with BICG IDEAS about "political correctness", it's because hate nerds who have felt like their "nerd status" should be a protected status. It's because I hate this idea that no one in the gaming media should ever be able to express an opinion, and I hate the people who support that idea. So what's in it for me... Is hate!

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

Check his/her 21st comment in the thread, it sums up this person's entire character more then out of all the other comments. I'll wait.

So, to sum up, this person:
1. believes that GG has had no impact whatsoever,
2. can't name examples as to who wronged him or her and instead hates an entire group, which is akin to racism if the group was a race
3. demonizes people for not living up to his/her standards
4. Lies and makes up shit
5. thinks that people shouldn't have the right to tell someone to shut up and doing so is tantamount to censorship
6. Thinks it's okay to actively censor people (i.e. this does not mean telling someone to shut up in a single instance, this means systematic bullying, slander and telling lies about things over a long period of time and engineering society) if you think that someone's ideas are stupid, which for the record is what their side is doing right now. not to mention thinking that telling someone to shut up is okay if you yourself said it was bad as long as it's you doing it.

so, hypocritical, narcissistic, hateful, misanthropic, and generally sociopathic.
yeah, pretty fucked up person right there.
