Nothing makes her happier than giving a reason why she cant Lessons from the Patriarchy I'm always confused when people think it's an excellent idea to criticize me on Twitter and not expect a reaction. But I just found out that one of them actually works in the industry so I can address her comments now and not feeling like I'm attacking some teenager. So this one goes out to you, Arinn Dembo TFYC is not a charity, that was the point. It was about people backing an idea that a woman had so they could get a part of the profits. The profits were given to charity, but honestly if there was a way to dump the profits from the game into the backers Steam account so they could buy more games we totally would have done that. l'm tired of women not being able to monetize their actual games and being relegated to doing PR in the industry And I honestly feel no sadness when men give money to women because they expect a return on their investment. None of the woman who entered the contest had the ability to make the game on their own. And none of the woman at Autobotika has the ability to make the game all on their own. That the point of civilization, people specialize in skills and use those skill for the betterment of society. Some of the programmers will be men, some of the designers will be men, but the director, the producer, lead animator and the creator are all women. And since it is the creator first game she isn't allowed to decided if we use OpenGLES or Metal for the IOS port. The most entertaining part is that TAM NOT MAKING THE GAME." I didn't choose the idea that was Autobotika, all I did was give them money to make the proposal and the website. Anyone that has money and the time could do the same thing, and arguably should. Maybe you should pool some together to run this contest the way you want. Autobotika not only chose the best idea, but also chose games that were simple enough that they could be done under budget, and by a first-time designer. As I tell people in interviews, my favourite idea was the sixth best idea, and I honestly wish we could have shown it to the world Autobotika has done demos of some of the games, we did them to make sure we could do them under budget. We haven't shown them because they are rough on purpose. They were to prove that it could be done, not to show the world. Their work speaks for themseves and if there was more of an industry in Colombia to make games, they would make more. Now their stuck making game white label, or games for websites, when then can and Commerical, and Movies which had much larger budget than the game they are making for TFYC Your criticism seems to be this, that we actually took people that wouldn't be able to make games, gave them the opportunity, raised money to help developers in the developing world that you hadn't heard of and this is in some way wrong as they aren't part of your club. These developers incidentally are apparently removing gang graffiti to prevent the very real threat of street violence in their area. They've never filed a restraining order because the police in the area aren't know for checking up on such things As such we generously take that criticism and hopefully will learn from it. But if you're asking us to stop because we aren't doing it the way you like, I'm not going to listen to you, because that is the same criticism the an infinite number of women have felt in the industry We tried it your way and no one gave us money because we weren't pretty enough or knew the right people But on one-point one very specific tweet we need to address something @jarod_frye @TFYCapitalists @PolitiskPirat Using a charity as a PR stunt doesn't make you a charity, lad Stop bring F------ ZOE into the conversation.

NOTHING HAS F------ CHANGED 10
Gamergate (harassment campaign) Article Talk From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia For other uses, see Gamergate (disambiguation). Gamergate or GamerGate (GG)[¹] was a loosely organized misogynistic online harassment campaign and a right-wing backlash against feminism, diversity, and progressivism in video game culture. [2][³] It was conducted using the hashtag "#Gamergate" primarily in 2014 and 2015.[1][4][5][6] Beginning in August 2014, Gamergate targeted women in the video game industry, most notably feminist media critic Anita Sarkeesian and video game developers Zoë Quinn and Brianna Wu, among others.[7][8][9][10][11] The harassment campaign included doxing, r--- threats, and death threats.[12][13][14] Gamergate proponents ("Gamergaters") stated that they were a social movement, but lacked well-defined goals, a coherent message, and leaders, making Gamergate difficult to define.[15][16][17] Gamergaters claimed to promote ethics in video games journalism, claimed to be protecting the "gamer" identity, and opposed what they asserted as "political correctness" in video games.[18][19][20][21][22] Read Date Target Gamergate, online harassment campaign in 2014-15 that targeted women in the video game industry. The attacks were attributed largely to white male right-wing gamers who railed against the rise and influence of women and feminism in the industry. Gamergate served as a recruiting tool for the growing alt-right movement and helped spur the online “Pizzagate" conspiracy theory, which soon spawned the wider QAnon conspiracy movement. …………………………....…..……….….....

[2][36] Gamergate led figures both inside and outside the gaming industry to focus on methods of addressing online harassment, ways to minimize harm, and prevent similar events. [37] [38] [39] [40] Gamergate has been viewed as a contributor to the alt-right and other right- wing movements.[21][41] Video game developer Brianna Wu

X Journalists would make claims of people like Anita Sarkeesian "playing video games all her life" when she openly admitted many times she is not a gamer and only starter recently (when it wasn't for an interview). Various developers trading sex or money for good reviews got exposed, journalists who accepted got exposed. People became a bit more critical about supporting a game just because the developer has a victim complex stating tat their game could have only failed because of sexism, instead of their own poor developing skills. What really sealed the deal was opposition often faking their own harassment. Anita sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn have been caught multiple times screenshotting "harassment" while showing that the harrasser's account name in the login. Or when someone called the police to help Sarkeesian against a "very real threat" she was posting about, only for police to find the harasser's messages were coming from her IP address. I just want honesty from the community, and the lies were mostly exposed by the "dreaded" gamergate. 1.3K views • View upvotes 26
