![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. …………………………....…..……….…..... Attack type Victims Motive View source Inquiry XA 28 languages ✓ Perpetrators Internet trolls, particularly from 4chan, Internet Relay Chat, and 8chan View history Tools ✓ Gamergate August 2014 - 2015 Women in the video game industry See all media Online harassment campaign Zoë Quinn, Anita Sarkeesian, Brianna Wu, and others Gamergaters created conspiracy theories falsely accusing Quinn of an unethical relationship with video game journalist Nathan Grayson.[23][24][25] More broadly, they alleged unethical collusion between the press and feminists, progressives, and social critics.[17][26] [27] These claims were widely dismissed as trivial, conspiracy theories, baseless, or unrelated to actual issues of ethics in gaming and journalism.[28] [29][30] Gamergate supporters frequently denied that the harassment took place, falsely claiming it to be manufactured by the victims.[31][32] Misogyny anti-feminism anti- progressivism FBI investigation Gamergate has been described as a culture war over cultural diversification, artistic recognition, feminism in video games, social criticism in video games, and the social identity of gamers.[28][33] [34] [35] Many supporters of Gamergate opposed the increasing influence of feminism and so-called "social justice warriors" on video game culture. [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](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/list/002/691/215/331.png "What the actual f--- are we supposed to do about this")

![Recently you may have seen a tweet from@wikileaks about something called #GamerGate WikiLeaks WE OPEN GOVERNMENTS 236M More Follow WikiLeaks @wikileaks #GamerGateers should know that the pattern of censorship & cronyism they see is mirrored at the very top. Level up: twitter.com/wikileaks/stat.. 9:03 PM-15 Sep 2014 238 RETWEETS 173 FAVORITES What is GamerGate? GamerGate is a recent consumer revolt among gamers and enthusiasts who are against censorship, corruption, and cronyism in gaming journalism and certain aspects of indie culture The hashtag #GamerGate has been trending on twitter for about a month Why is this important to Wikileaks? Because it has been slandered in the media through various tabloid hit pieces as a "hate" movement via faulty evidence, cherry picking, and publishing articles marred by poor ethics, lack of fact checking, outright lying and yellow journalism This mirrors some of the same corruption practiced within larger media outlets and governments Futhermore, parties accused of corruption have abused the good will of those who consider themselves social justice advocates and feminists by hiding themselves behind the poltical banners of others and using minorities as shields. The hashtag #NotYourShield came about when an indie developer and supporter of GamerGate got tired of people speaking for him Parties involved in suppressing GamerGate have also been acused of abusing the Youtube DMCA claims system to silence descent, and through cronyism enganged in mass banning/ blocking of public discourse on multiple websites and platforms On August 31 a user on Reddit was shadowbanned" (a method of censoring a user wherein the user does not immediately know they are muted to the public) for "liking" a post related to GamerGate in wake of a mass censorship campaign by moderators. On September 15th the same user was “permitted" to ask Wikileaks founder Julian Assange this question in an AMA: - Shaskaotselot 79 points 2 hours ago How do you feel about the censorship on Reddit in wake of GamerGate? permalink save report give gold reply [-]-JulianAssange DulanAssange) [S] 138 points an hour ago It's pathetic. But censorship by companies controlling privatized political space is now almost a norm. Facebook is implementing its own "laws" for social behavior and politics. Even Twitter has now folded; censoring for example, leaks about the New Zealand prime minister just this weak and some time ago banning Anonymous Sweden after a request from that country. High volume publication +control of publication by powerful organisations = censorship, all the time, we have to fight to create new networks of freedom. The old and powerful always become corrupt. permalink save parent report give gold reply ︿ To learn more about GamerGate and have your voicee heard join the #GamerGate hashtag on twitter. And remember, no matter what you read about GamerGate always do your own fact checking, think critically, and be skeptical, because there sure aren't a whole lot of trustworthy journalists around lately.](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/list/000/831/431/482.png "Mass censorship")
