![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](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/list/002/691/215/331.png "What the actual f--- are we supposed to do about this")

![Aposematism From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Aposematism (from Greek απǒ apo away, σημα sema sign, coined by Edward Bagnall Poulton[i]), perhaps most commonly known in the context of warning coloration, describes a family of antipredator adaptations where a warning signal is associated with the unprofitability of a prey item to potential predators.It is one form of "advertising" signal (with many others existing, such as the bright colours of flowers which lure pollinators). The warning signal may take the form of conspicuous colours, sounds, odoursor other perceivable characteristics. Aposematic signals are beneficial for both the predator and prey, both of which avoid potential harm This tendency to become highly noticeable and distinct from harmless organisms is the antithesis of crypsis, or avoidance of detection. Aposematism has been such a successful adaptation that harmless organisms have repeatedly evolved to mimic aposematic species, a pattern known as Batesian mimicry. Another related pattern is Müllerian mimicry, where aposematic species come to resemble one another e bright colo frog serve urs of this gran ular poison warning to pr ors of its tas](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/newsfeed/000/941/778/dd1.jpg "Explains a lot")

![Reply to this post athelind (No Subject ) Posted: 13 hours ago I have only the vaguest idea what's going on with Gamnergate. This is odd, because a good chunk of my Tumblr and Twitter feeds center around feminist concerns in popular culture but primarily in comics. Reply to this post RelaxingDragon1 (No Subject ) Posted: 11 hours ago I too have only vague notions of the whole thing, which I think might be because I'm not on Tumblr or Twitter at all. As best I can tell it has to do with gamers being awful, awful people, which at least is a concept I can readily understand. Reply to this post karass No Subject) Posted: 6 hours ago You have the essence of it. Its a thing that is still continually unfolding, so its hard to find anyone summing it up accurately in a sort of timeline format. Reply to this post AConcerned Rifleman [ Hide Comment] (No Subject) Posted: less than a second ago Actually, KYM has been documenting the whole thing since it's conception. http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/events/gamergate TL:DR: "Journalist" are being outed as corrupt with a massive trail evidence backing it, said journalists and "SJW"s are trying to make it about sexism and committing mass professional suicide in order to derail it, and the "sJW" crowd is trying to push their own agenda by using their contacts to silence anyone who portrays them in a negative light. Also/v/ made Vivian as part of a charity gaming pitch for women, not to be a mouthpiece of any sorts. I suggest you take a good look at this before it's gone, because I'm probably next on the chopping list... Reply to this post barman87 No Subject ) Posted: an hour ago Yeah. I wonder why they are so fixated on comics and games, blaming it on sexism. Which in reality is more to do with society and upbringing I just find it idiotic that people blame society's ills in cultural products as someone once said.
