_"*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

So it's basically not about equality at all, it's about being a power grab.

So putting all the parts together

Tech is where power is
Games are high tech entertainment
Entertainment is an art form
Art is subjective

Ergo, they campaign for games to be art, then release their crap and if people hate it they call them uncultured swine who just don't get it. Only they add the extra shields of "inclusiveness" and the like.
