iPad 10:24 AM reddit.com TheScrumpyMonkey2 po I'm not going to sit here and tell you Arthur Chu or some collective group of "Social Justice Warriors" were responsible for the threats; that would be a betrayal of my principles and the truth. The truth is that at this juncture we have no clue who sent those threats or why. Arthur Chu was being mean-spirited and possibly strayed into harassment but it is incredibly unlikely he called in a threat of this nature. It's the same with all threats like this. We just don't know until an arrest has been made, and since no arrests have been made it's been highly irresponsible and willfully untruthful for media outlets to blame the faceless boogieman of "GamerGate". Look at the faces of the hundreds of people at GGinDC. Take a good long look at that crowd of normal and pretty stunningly diverse people having a good time and tell me that is a "hate mob" responsible for criminal acts and not a group of gamers wanting to meet people and have a good time. The media narrative is patently ridiculous and simply fails to uphold its own internal logic So you won't hear about this story in the New York Times like you did with Anita Sarkeesian's threats, this won't be covered on Kotaku or Polygon on anywhere else that usually hungers for "female gamers in peril" stories. To cover this event would be to humanize the very people they have spent eight plus months demonizing and to make the embarrassing, withering admission that threats and harassment are EVERYONE'S problem, not just a select few who wish use them to push an agenda. So who IS responsible for the threats against GGinDC? Well it's the same person responsible for the threats against Zoe Quinn, it's the same person who sent a needle in the post to Milo Yiannopoulos; an individual. Not a group, not a hash-tag, not a belief system, not a gender and not a race. An individual who deserves to be treated as such; Isolated, deranged and on the wrong side of the law. But it's hard to demonize groups when you recognize the responsibility of the individual GGinDC was made up of real people, with real lives, with real disabilities and strengths who had a really good time despite the best efforts of individuals who ranged from petty, to spiteful, to federal criminal mi rm give gold hoaterica GLORY TO THE HYPNOSARKEESIAN mi ago You can have as diverse a bunch of people as you want. If the ends they're serving are white patriarchy, i.e MRAssholery, they're a diverse group supporting that You can't use "diversity" as a get out of jail free card, or as a trump card to solve all problems. GG has been repeatedly proven to be an MRA-centered, MRA-run hate mob. You can talk "diversity" all you want, but the endgame isn't too well hidden and to be perfectly frank GG's supporters have done a very poor job hiding the lede about what GG wants. I mean, need we discuss the shitstains who have basically killed my WoW server unless I want to hear the GooberGrape party line about the "forcible re-manning of Brianna Wu" and outlandish accusations about people f------ dogs and ludicrous toxic anti-Semitism directed at someone who isn't even Jewish? That's what GooberGrape stands for. That's what this "diverse" group of people stands for. Does it justify a bomb threat? HELL TO THE F--- NO But don't play the "diverse" card when it's about misogynist, racist, transexterminationist MRAsshole theology. There are, you know, trans woman MRAs. People who conspire with a theology which says we shouldn't exist. There are disabled MRAs, even though MRAsshle theology claims we're dangerous, harmful people. You're going to find someone stupid or misled enough to follow anything...that doesn't make a movement about MRAsshole theology any more "diverse" in who it's designed to serve tl;dr: GG=MRAssholes, MRAssholes are about cishet white male feelz and not realz, bomb threats are repugnant, diversity is intersectional, not the mere presence of people permalink save par give gold TheScrumpyMonkey 2 points 3 min Thankyou for that race and gender obsessed diatribe condemning a group of people who got a bomb-threat. I'm sure raving and ranting like this will convince a whole host of people you are not spiteful You are a conspiracy theroist. You just said MRA 10 times in that post like you hope it will suddenly make it true I treat people like people. You treat them like symbols based on race, ideology, gender and belief permalink save parent give gold ago Warrior nts 15 mi ago F--- whoever did this permalink save give gold

"Judge people based on their individual merits and faults, it doesn't matter what group or ideology they identify with, they are an individual and cannot represent a group of a 1000 more."

That's the first time I heard this kind of rationality within the entire GamerGate discussion. I'm glad there are people who've figured that out.

That's the SOCJUS mindset in a nutshell, 300 people of all races, genders, orientations, levels of able bodiedness, and class? "MRAsshole-White-Patriarchy-Hate-Mob!".

A dozen upper-class white people "suffering" from self-diagnosed PTSD and living in the same neighborhood? "True Diversity!"
