It scares the shit out of me that there's a remote chance that this kind of thinking might become the norm one day, it's collective brainwashing
I used to laugh when people compared SJW culture to 1984 but now I definitely see what they meant
[QUOTE=Wii60;46839840]SRHButts has been very silent on twitter since her ED Page went up, which reveals she has 40,000$ in taxes she has yet to pay to IRS and runs ffshrine.org, which has seen tons of copyright complaints.

HAHAHA holy shit about fucking time. That place is a fucking sham site where the only thing that goes on is video game and film soundtrack piracy. I used to visit that site, but I stopped years ago because it is literally pathetic. Also because the times that sarah would pop up, she would show herself to be a literal psychopath and a hypocrite.

[QUOTE=Zet;46840071]Jesus Christ. What's with aGG people having problems with the IRS?[/QUOTE]
In that person's case, its because she is a moron who can't manage money, who along with owing the IRS that much dosh, literally can't run the site without begging for money to keep it up.
Good news everyone!

This made me a little happier today.
Well, turns out this was like 17 days ago but just now posted to twitter. Bracing for clocks but keeping it up because I smiled a bit.

[QUOTE=Eonart;46843046]So Patrick Klepek is with Kotaku now after only having left Destructoid a few days ago.
Totally no collusion and connections here. Nope.[/QUOTE]
It was Giant Bomb, not Destructoid
Didn't he insult Kotaku a few days ago?
Also, this is a hillarious step down for him.

I'm sorry but how the fuck is this evidence of collusion
Kotaku is a glorified blog, of course they'd love to get someone from a website with as much "street cred" as Giant Bomb. How is that evidence of collusion or corruption?
This just tuned up on Google Alerts: [url=http://www.firstthings.com/web-exclusives/2015/01/gamergate-at-the-beginning-of-2015]Gamergate at the Beginning of 2015[/url]
Someone actually did research. Also for some reason this is a site that mostly writes about how to be a good Christian, and tries to push for religion in politics, but whatever :v:
(The Gamergate article is in stark contrast to most other writing on the site, it seems. I think it may be a sign that someone there is not writing for their "guaranteed" audience but really does try to make a difference through reaching out to others.)
[editline]edit[/editline]
On closer examination the writing on that site it actually really impressive.
I may not agree with the theological background but it's often very well done and carries a lot of philosophical and/or humanitarian weight.
It's possible that I'll keep reading it.
Question about AGG relating to my last post: Have any anti-GG people ever been criticised for their actions by fellow AGG people? Not in a general sense, but relating to their conduct regarding Gamergate. Has anybody actually been condemned by a big name AGGer for going too far in attacking somebody pro-GG?

I do recall Zoe Quinn calling out Ian Miles Cheong for going to far, but she was mostly ignored.

Quinn actually does some mediating, of all people.
Mostly only on occasions where an attack would hurt tons of innocent people (like the Patreon thing), but still, she has also spoken up against harassment coming from AGG at some point.

Who cares, that's nothing but good.
Thats just more garbage to make Kotaku look even more shit.
GG got yet another positive mention on spiked: [url=http://www.spiked-online.com/newsite/article/trail-blazers-risk-takers-and-rule-breakers-our-people-of-the-year/]Trail-blazers, risk-takers and rule-breakers: our people of the year[/url]
The site is extremely slanted though, just in almost exactly the same direction of GamerGate regarding relevant issues.
Well, Boycott info is no longer allowed on KiA cause Reddit Admins are two-faced cunts.

"This sanction effectively prevents me from reporting harassment".
I expected and predicted this was going to happen, but again, won't change much. Hes already exchanged emails with other editors way earlier in case this happened (I would assume that he thought this would happen, anyways.) He admitted to warring, being biased and etc. He doesn't care. Furthermore, there still half a dozen biased editors in that area. Either way, it at least shows the arbitrators are willing to do something.
The reddit thing isn't as big of a deal as people are making it seem.

Why is Free Games, Coupons etc. below Kotaku when they have 200+ more followers?
Takes some time to update
So I got a website that I can't use and has a year left on it, unlimited bandwidth. If anybody here wants access for.. reasons.. contact me on steam. I don't care what you do with it as long as it's not used for harrasment or something stupid.
Also, only available to people who reguarly post here, because I think you guys can do something better with it then I can.
Catch is, the domain name is "dancingbearensemble.com"
I also have a teamspeak server with the same name, but it's used for just me and my friends atm, if you want access to that too your free to do so. (but were staying)

Zoe has mostly been trying to play everything down. It seems as if she's been in some deep shit for a little while now and isn't trying to stand out because of it.
It's probably because of the lawsuit is what I'm thinking, though.
