So FreeBSDGirl, the person who made the IGDA approved GamerGate blacklist in order to "Stop harassment", just harassed a girl off of twitter for not being extreme enough.
I wish I was making this shit up.[/QUOTE]
I've found in recent months that I hold more value in principles and integrity than individual issues, that whatever view you follow isn't as important as the fact that you discuss it in a consistent and rational manner. Nothing confirms that more than the fact that what makes me mad about this isn't the shitty behaviour, it's that her "crime" was saying she was up for discussing it with people.
That what tipped them off to her as a traitor was her desire to talk and be open to being told she's wrong, that they pride themselves on judging entire groups based on a few individuals, that they're so ready to trample someone and harass them if they believe they're justified in doing so. Generalised statements about how GG is against any positive change or that there are no two sides for discussion have made me mad before, but I'm in disbelief about how disgusting this is.
Guys, I hate to tell you this but you're all Anti GamerGate Sockpuppets and are actually AGG supporters, well, according to LiterallyFuckingBluesClueless's logic anyway.

The more they do it the more supporters they lose. I bet that that girl is at least neutral now, after that shenanigans. (Otherwise, it would be hypocrisy for any argument for.)
[QUOTE=Wii60;46596512]guys if you have Game Informer Issues 142 (fantastic four Movie issue) or 153 (Splinter Cell: Double Agent issue) post what they want here:

I posted a picture of my 142 copy, I swear I have 153 but I don't know where it is. If there's ever any need for EGM, PC Gamer, XBN, and OXM mags to be perused, though, i'm ready. i have atleast 100 issues of each

You know how Stephen Totilo, Kotaku writer, said that Kotaku writers don't accept promotional items?

Might not be a big deal after all. I can't figure out if there is a difference between the Promotional version and limited edition version.

don't worry he's denouncing by turning it upside down, like a cross. In return he makes a V to symbolize his lizard identity.

I forget to, but he did get gummy bears in the mail and the follow up was that she was bullied at school from her so called friends.

Yeah. Honestly, it terrifies me that people are abusing social justice for their own gains. Before, I knew logically that the left would have its own extremists, but I never knew what it looked like.
In my opinion, it's kinda like they're using nazi tactics. But it's more dangerous because they're not hiding behind anti-semitism. They're hiding behind stuff like feminism and LGBT rights and they're not immediately dismissable, so their arguments have a moment where they seem reasonable.
[B]Edit:[/B] It's like the people who want to take the n-word out of [I]Huckleberry Finn[/I] because the word promotes racism or something. I think pretending black people [I]weren't[/I] called the n-word and treated like shit back then is racist, not the artistic depiction of that.
[B]Edit Zwei:[/B][QUOTE]“You used to live in America?” I asked.
“I did,” Ms. Wilson said. “I left during the “great brain drain,” as people have nicknamed it. Before there was a mass migration of scientists, artists, and all kinds of people, Pastor was one of the good guys.
“We were on the lookout for racism, sexism, stuff like that. We didn’t realize the problem is extremism as a whole, not just one type of it. Pastor was one of the figureheads of the revisionist movement. Basically, correcting “errors” in media. It was an umbrella terms for lots of things, but soon enough it was synonymous with re-writing books.
“That means stuff like The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn was completely decimated to remove every single mention of racism, sexism, anything people didn’t think was “politically correct.” Have you read it?”
“I stopped reading the original when Tom got annoying,” I said. “But I read the remastered version all the way through. All thirty pages of it.”
“And in your opinion did that make it a better book?” Ms. Wilson asked.
“Honestly? No. It’s devoid of any substance. It reads more like a summary than anything else, and from what I’ve read about American history, I think it’s more insulting to pretend slavery didn’t exist than to admit it happened.”
“Exactly,” Ms. Wilson said. “But we didn’t know it back then. Pastor played everyone very well. He surrounded himself with people who thought the ends justified the means, and soon enough he was president. He pretended to care about human rights up until congress was filled with his drones. He passed laws so we couldn’t remove him, couldn’t vote him out, and soon enough it was obvious we couldn’t do anything. So we moved.”[/QUOTE]

The Nazis used junk science to justify why the Jews, blacks, Slavs, gays, and mental defectives "deserved" to be rounded up and killed. SJWs use junk science to make everything harassment and justify why they think 0.01% of the population deserves to have majority say in any debate.
The horseshoe effect works!

And he can promptly fuck right off. From what he's saying it sounds like he's mad that GG didnt become /pol/'s attack dog. He acuses other people of becoming like SJW's but calls for extremism.

I'm really not sure what's the issue with IGG, Kickstarter or ad revenue.
I mean, crowdfunding has its own issues, but they've nothing to do with Gamergate besides journalists backing the games they review.
Frankly the less people in it only for the fight against "SJWs" the better.
