Zoe Quinn was in Iraq?

let me guess, she joined ISIS

PTSD from Iraq? Yeah, that's just gonna be more or less a cry for attention and trying to be relevant, especially since one wonders about this: Wouldn't Quinn of been a teenager when Iraq was a thing?

Not to mention that the standards for women in the military were higher back then and that unfit loser wouldn't even fulfill the current lowered standards.

Other news:

According to Time Magazine, the Chicago torture happened because of video games.

No idea which ones though.

Just like how a kid learned to paint offensive propaganda, videogames Again no idea which one.

Because clearly Videogames create Gamergate, which leads to all sorts of vitriol against human decency.

It must go into further study, and by study apparently none was done at all

Note: I am being sarcastic, but it's amazing how much this narrative of games and the people that play them keeps going on in the CURRENT_YEAR.

Let us be fair tho, ever since videogames became a thing, the mainstream media was out to destroy them

What a great guy.

Can someone at Marvel please sack this moron please

What's the story on this person? How did karma kick his ass?

The one commenter on the thread:
"Because it was completely limited to 'words on a computer screen'."

It was barely even that. The FBI proved that she and everyone else in her camp received nothing.

More or less, video games have been a scapegoat for whatever horrible event or controversy occurred. One notable example would be Sandy Hook where some people think violent games had to do with it despite the shooters favorite game being DDR.

Why bother waiting to find a motive when you could try to blame a mash up of polygons and coding for the horrible things that occured.

Is Zoe Quinn's BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder) acting up, or is she going more bonkers than ever? In this archived Tumblr post, Zoe Quinn is transitioning to be a man.

Skimmed it for a while. That's not what's happening. In fact, she even says that in that post that she doesn't know what she is yet and she's not currently planning to do transitioning because she doesn't think it'll help her.

No, what's happening is that she's explaining how she can't view herself as either female or male.

…in favor of not risking derailing the thread, I'll only remark that if this is another elaborate ploy for attention, I wouldn't be terribly surprised.

(Also, she keeps talking about being a game developer. What other "games" has she "developed"?)

Plenty! in her mind

Ze is now "agender" a.k.a. "I want all the special snowflake of being transgender but hate those fucking tranny freaks" (remember Zoe's glassing incident?).

Although I wonder if the media's going to stop claiming GamerGate "harassed women", after all that's not respecting xir pronouns at all.

:^)

Godfrey Elfwick has more.

I've been out of the GG loop for a looong time, so I'm not aware of this "glassing incident". Care to educate me?

It was from very early on.

Unconfirmed but given that Something Awful was were she hung out for years and that "Helldump Addiction" she had I find it very likely.

P.S. The Honey Badger case is going to trial on November 29th-30th.

So The Mary Sue & Calgary Expo can start panicking.

I wish the Honey Badgers the best of luck with their lawsuit

Of course the Honey Badgers will be fine, Honey Badgers don't give a shit

Well… she's not wrong.

This just in. WatchMojo submitted a new video Top 5 Facts About The Alt Right comparing GamerGate to white supremacy and hicks.

I thin in this day and age, being called those things is a sign of honor

I kind of surprised at the amount of negative reception on that video. I probably shouldn't, though, since videos that describe the alt-right negatively get a quite a few dislikes.

This'll be something…

@roberthaha
I love the fact she hasn't even picked a congressional race to run in yet. How can you say you're really representing the people and their issues who voted for you when you don't even know which district you're running in yet?

>I don't want a single Republican to run unopposed
It's funny because the reason most people run unopposed is because the opposing party knows they're wasting their time and money on a futile campaign that could be devoted to more likely winners. She literally wants to bleed the Democratic Party of time and money that could otherwise be spent on tight Senate or Governor races.

As a conservative and Michigan resident who will likely have a close gubernatorial race in 2018, I welcome her to run for one of the unopposed Republican Michigan Court of Appeals seats.

Stand up to the alt-right GamerGate in Congress.

Congrats Wu in being one of those that are, in a sense, keeping it alive. Gotta have something to try justify why you're running for a politcal office.

Gamergate is blamed for putting Bane in the whitehouse

Maybe we did.
I have been thinking, 2014 was when SJWs began to lose and when GamerGate began.
And I think those two things were tied. Before GamerGate, SJWs infiltrated many urban tribes with little to no opposition. But then they tried to do so with gamers and gamers fought back.

Then out of a sudden, and as if they went desperate, SJWs began to act crazier and crazier, An example of this is the "Gamers are dead" articles and how the narrative came crashing down as mainstream media tried to paint gamers as monsters.

As things went on it seemed SJWs went crazier, trying to push all their nonsense at once in a single big hit, for example the many Tumblr genders and pronouns, general disdain for everything masculine, advocacy for censorship. In general SJWs saw some sort of opposition and realized it could, and will, make their plans crumble and so they tried to rush them.

Normal people of course did not like it. Since they rushed their plans, normalfags got redpilled quite easily because they noticed something was off with what SJWs preached. Suddenly things went from anti American and anti imperialist words which resonated with nearly every country (Even America) to anti Western civilization propaganda. It went from gay acceptance to ostracism for straight people. It went from anti racism to racism against white people being justified.

People noticed something was wrong and that what SJWs began to propose was not something they were OK with. And it all got bigger in 2014. And once they got tired of being called bigots for not giving in, they voted for Trump when the other option was a tyranical murderous SJW candidate.

I might be making mere conjectures here, but I get the feeling the birth of GamerGate was the moment SJWs faced resistance for the first time, and in their desperate attempt at crushing it they shot themselves in the foot.

Eh, as far resistance goes, some could argue GamerGate may not be the first. If anything, the whole Trump GamerGate president thing may as well be for a good laugh. After all, some of these people want to believe GamerGate got Trump in, nevermind the other Americans that voted for him while having no clue about GamerGate.

I am just saying people got tired of SJWs in mid 2014, almost on par with GamerGate. Maybe both things are tied.

GamerGate helped to expose the SJWs for the monsters they are

the rest was just a domino effect

Related: Rhianna Prachett, The late Terry Prachett's Daugher, corrects a record on the Tomb Raider reboot. How a certain scene was taken out of context.

And

more on Gamedropping (KiA link) as a trend. Akin to the effect of saying a Gamergate instantly makes the person playing victim (or reporting against) a martyr or something.

So, I know this might not seem GG related, but read first and decide. Lately leftist media began to focus on bronies (Yes, the same ones targeted by Fox News) and their hit pieces have been rather inconvenient, with the first one being a BuzzFeed article focusing on the pornographic part of the fandom.

Why is it related to GamerGate you wonder? Well, it seems very similar to their attempt of creating a "gamers are dead" narrative but now it is "bronies are creeps" they are trying to shame another fandom into submission. A weaker one.

The video is the second attack.

Fun bit, this has been going on since 4 episodes into the first season. There was heckling about a show designed for female children captivating a completely different demographic. It popped up in local newspapers (I remember reading it a while back, can't find a digital copy) from where I'm around, echoed about the fandom catching on like it went against all form of nature.

So this "Bronies are Creeps" thing has been around for the past 6 years, almost 4 years prior to Gamergate. It's just that the focus is shifting back. To me it means two things:

1. Gamergate worked. Old guns are being fallen on to keep the clickbait going.
2. The focus is now divided on two fronts with the commonality being "while male deadbeats" (Possibly mysognistic or racist… which is funny if you think about the content of that show.)

The story is cracking. If the Bronies double down then whomever is feeding these warped ideas will have two groups fighting against this message. An increase in the number of opponents, and they're already losing to one.

Remember the history as it lays out the same pattern. Media Revulsion and a division in 4-chan.

Anyway news directly related?

Revisionist history about gamergate being a harassment campaign.

The summary with an exact quote:

"Basically this girl was just targeted and then it just blew up from there."

The icing on the kek? Immediately after that statement the next sentence is:

"It was really interesting to do research and learn about a lot of stuff."

Research… apparently doing nothing counts as research and I guess thumb twiddling is stuff.

Most bronies retired by this point, so they are really just punching an empty sack

Had they focused on the heyday of bronies back then, such as 2012 or 2013, their punches would of been more relevant.

now they are basically trying to attack an opponent that does not even bother to fight back

it is pretty pathetic

(KiA link) FBI releases document on the investigation of GamerGate. It's a boring read.
Kia link is for highlights, Second link is for the real document if you want to comb through or save a copy.

@Hrom They still have conventions. They're not as "active" but they're still out there. Much like the Trekkies, Furries, Horror enthusiasts, Anime lovers, Manga lovers… Basically as long as there's a convention center to rent.

Nailed it. I'll have to upload it under Autistic Screeching.

Let's put a translator on that screech

It'd be a shame if WU ran for office and WU's opponent was provided the evidence of WU embellishing the facts.

Not to mention WU's odd ties with the media. How the heck does this person have so many connections with reporting news groups, mass media and claim to be maker of successful games?
(I'm being serious. Two years and WU gets on the news from time to time.)

In addition, the spin doctors are at it again. (Verge) Of course the comment section is turned off so not to correct the errors.

Also for clarification for any mod that's reading this: The links have to do with the reporting of Gamergate, it being found innocent with the FBI and WU's doctoring of the information to make it seem like it's a personal attack while using Journalism to do the work.

Edit: Gizmodo (A.K.A the company formally known as Gawker) is doing it too.

Edit part 2: More spin Summary: "Because the FBI didn't find anyone to punish or have a reason to punish #GamerGate, they must be terrible at their job."

I do wonder if the western mainstream media will ever get tired of any of this
how many blows does their cause need to take for them to finally fold?

S class youtuber Jontron goes full red pill and does a five hour stream talking about SJW nonsense with Sargon of Akkad.

"Welcome to Gamergate son."

You wonder how Wu does all that? Well, the answer is simple. The same way SJWs always push their stuff forward, corruption.

You see, I once was closer to SJWs than many of those in this group, and among the things that redpilled me was seeing all the corruption within all those so called "noble social movements".

They are willing to do anything, no matter how dishonest or twisted, to push their personal agenda and make it pass as a benefit to society. That is how they manage to insert themselves into politics with such ease (Like Anita Sarkeesian and the UN). They take advantages of the corruption within the system they claim to fight against to make that same system do as they wish while avoiding to fix what is really wrong.

That is also why they don't fight against true acts of injustice and cruelty, because corruption can't fix wrongs, just make more wrongs. And so in order to keep the corrupt engine going, they must make the world a bit worse for everyone else to make it better for themselves.

Let me clarify: how in the world did WU manage to get airtime two years ago with just WU's name and a claim on a major news network, continue to push the narrative on fleeing WU's house and even still have this prevailing influence on the media? I'm curious about the initial grant that got WU the airtime in the first place. The networking comnection that led to WU all this power to be a brazen egotistical delusional "big sister."

That is a good question. All chains of corruption start at some very specific link, for example Quinn being friends with the right people. Maybe we should do a background check on Wu and find out who was the first shill. Maybe a college friend or some relative.

Her parents are very rich.

trully opressed and marginalized
