you guys probably browse 4chan/tumblr/reddit/twitter/FUCKING SOMETHING in your spare time so you probably know about this
what are your thoughts?
FIVE GUYS
But seriously, maybe those nutter "SJWs ARE TAKING OVER MEDIA AND CENSORING EVERYTHING GUYS" people weren't that wrong. The censorship that is going on is disgusting, and the Streisand effect can only have so much impact when you don't have one person who managed to put a gag rule on absolutely every source.
It's really hard to take someone who self-identifies as "feminist" seriously, mostly because of SJWs and poop. Especially if they are male. The men involved in the industry that defend anything with a vagina do it because they want to be seen as godly by these women that force clickbait gender baiting poop into every major site. That, and they won't ever be targeted.
But yeah, as far as I'm concerned women have been set back decades by charlatans and legitimate female developers now have to deal with a new stereotype: rather than being a woman who has no creative ideas at all and no clue about games, they now have to deal with the stereotype that they only want to use video games as their political soapboxes that allow them to express them in an easy-to-swallow pill for the general public. Basically, that they really don't care about games.
The thumbs-in-ears-lalala mentality is annoying.
When I saw the first IA video, I dismissed it as biased and dumb. I agreed with the general jist of his video but I think that a few points were recklessly biased. Now video #2 is out and I can't believe it, but I agree with about everything.
I think this is a fascinating story and I'm looking forward to seeing further developments unfold.

Phil Fish sent a intercourse ing botnet at the FBI and revealed confidential employee information from several Fortune 500 companies. He's intercourse ed.

drama all day
Women sure are gonna have an easy time in the industry after all of this, huh? One stereotype replaced with another...
The pseudo-Stockholm Syndrome among them is amazing, holy poop.
Someone sum this poop up for me. I don't understand what's going on.

stolen from /v/, don't know what's in what as i've been following the story as it has been unfolding. have fun
oh sum it up
zoe quinn is a game dev who made a text game called Depression Quest
at one point in time she cheated on her then boyfriend with 5 guys, all of which are in the game industry. these people have written about her game giving her coverage and one even nominated her because he was on a panel for some indie game award.
i guess i've seen proof through old facebook messages she sent that then boyfriend and skype conversations
also at this point a lot of terrible information has been dug up about things she has done in the past which were awful as well
also they've been 'hacked' and are blaming it on /v/ (because 4chan is the big bad internet bully h4xors do not forgive do not forget)
also phil fish is a terrible person and did a lot of terrible things but I think we were all aware of this before that drama? dude's a total dickhead with his ego shooting to the moon
its all pretty intercourse ed
especially the part where they framed and bullied the socially anxious forever alone nerds over at wizardchan
it's all really dumb if you ask me because it's not like the regular gaming industry isn't super intercourse ed up itself
i mean no one makes it a watergate conspiracy when dudes intercourse up that hard with gaming press. it's just really easy to hate it all because all the tumblr folk and whatnot are coming out of the woodwork to try and defend her. honestly, yes she intercourse ed up, but is it that big of a deal? not really, because the gaming industry was poopty to begin with
but gosh it is getting really hard to want to identify with gamers these days who for some reason have made "sjws" their enemies
sjws are pretty intercourse ing awful in every sense of the word though
Quote from: Zero on August 28, 2014, 02:03:47 PM
sjws are pretty intercourse ing awful in every sense of the word though
i guess for me it depends on the level of "sjw" they are
but yeah mostly if they're from tumblr
those people are so directionless. they'll swallow anything they see posted and accept anything they read on that website as fact.
they get riled up about the smallest things and all they can do is get really mad and say hateful things on twitter and tumblr instead of building something constructive or working together to make something that pleases them
they also have huge egos and can't ever admit to being wrong so poop hole people like phil fish can exist thinking they are gods among mankind when really they just made one poopty indie game that got a little bit of traction. that dude thinks he's the center of gaming, I don't know how anyone can have their head shoved that far up their ass
i think a lot of it is that most of the world is lazy/talentless and wants everything to cater to them
that's just how it is these days
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MpJGkG1g-Lk i always just default to this.
also white knights like our hero patrick klepek are embarassing as intercourse
egoraptor too
he jumped aboard the defense force without doing research
and now people are aggressively attacking jontron because he won't jump on that force. It is the "if you're not with us you're against us" mentality in full force
I remember when it was just about playing video games.

jontron has been based as intercourse recently
also yeah i kind of just miss the let's have fun playing this RAD game mentality
i guess that comes with the games are art thing
i just wanna have fun
Male feminists have become as stupid as hell. Male support of SJWs/feminism is the only way that it can exist
normally I'd say "defending them won't make them intercourse you as a reward"
but
yeah

I'd normally describe these as "cringe" even though I hate that word, but wow
Yeah, openly saying you hate them will cause people to let you into their clubhouse.

white knights like this nerd are the worst
just take me back to gamecube/ps2-era gaming where nobody gave a intercourse and just wanted to play sweet games like devil may cry and katamari

Best gen in my opinion.
I'm actually going to use one of those images you posted on Facebook just to piss off a couple feminists I know personally. Thanks Tupin.
For once I don't want /v/ or people to stop talking about an issue like this. Back when it was just Anita fishing for more money, yeah, that was one thing.
But this? Oh man THIS. They can't keep up all the shilling forever.

I don't think Tumblr is so bad considering how constructive it's been about that monster Beaubien.

who?
bahaha its actually working btw
sponsors are starting to react to this poop. with enough luck and effort hopefully everything gets remedied and sites like kotaku can stop being what is essentially a cheerleading squad
"we're just a blog" when treated like journalists that require integrity, which comes with responsibility, morals, and also comes with its fair share of criticism both constructive and not
"we're gaming journalists!" when treated like a bullpoop opinion blog that doesn't really deserve the attention it gets
polygon is the same intercourse ing way and I hope they all get what they deserve and we can just go back to the days where gaming news wasn't filled to the brim with Social Justice bullpoop and was just about the games.
the drama thickens
zoe is getting tumblr back on her side because she lurked in an irc channel with 21 other idiots
anita sarkeesian retweeted CP someone sent her as bait
to over 100k people
