That number seems awfully low srh @srhbutts 27m TweetSave StockingsKun @Banjoteeth @Bat_In_The_Hat _icze4r i have -2,000 some Screencaps of GG harassing, doxxing and libeling people The oldest example I could find was from December 12th srh @srhbutts Dec 12 so uh. @thunderfoot and #gamergate are encouraging people to dogpile harass and gaslight a r--- survivor I LVL 90 SJW Auragasmic 25s @thunderfoOt Is this the "criticism" you support, you sewer dwelling shitmonger? #gamergate is disgusting @JohnathanMulroo I'm a r--- victim. Piz lecture me more on how @thunderfoot cares about me #3479 Mathew King # Follow @UnseenPerfidy @thunderf00t orly? were you actually r----, or did you jsut have 47 ★42 The data I have from Topsy shows at least 5,200,000 tweets since December 12th Tweets per day: #GamerGate January 4th-February 3rd TOPSY Tweets per day: #gamergate December 120-january 11th 2,000-of 5,200,000 is a whopping 0.038% harassment rate. This is including harassment without the hashtag So this number is likely inflated aredy. When I pointed this out, @srhbutts resorted to a straw man. I almost didn't catch it. srh srhbutts 15mm TweetSave @StockingsKun @Bat_In_TheHat they don't use the tag when harassing people. that data's obviously not valid View conversation @srhbutts, the number I used was provided by you. You include harassment that doesn't use #GamerGate Therefore, this is not a valid argument against the data I recognize you do not record 100% of all harassment. It wouldn't be humanly possible to do so But how much do you think you record Even if it were 1 out of every 50 Which l know harassment isn't that frequent looking at Anita Sarkeesian's 157 / 25,956 tweets in a week But even if it were that frequent, that's only 1.92% #GamerGate is not a hate mob like you claim.

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
