However, that's not what seals this as the worst moment in the site's history: the reactions of David Wong and the moderators on the forums were what alienated me from the website. To begin with, there's Wong s [[http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/831516-gamergate obvious ignorance on the subject] and [[http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/831288-gamergate his refusal to look into it]] or [[http://knowyourmeme.com/photos/831453-gamergate to listen to another perspective]].

![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](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/list/002/691/215/331.png "What the actual f--- are we supposed to do about this")
![Regarding recent events moot ##Admin:: 09/18/14(Thu)15:05:19 No.264185884メa [Reply] The decision to remove "GamerGate" threads has been poorly communicated, and that's my fault. Said threads are being deleted primarily because they violate our blanket no personal information Iraids/calls to invasion" rule. Spamming the reports system and creating multiple topics were also a factor, especially given N is one of 4chan's fastest moving boards and has historically struggled with keeping topics limited to actual video games. Regarding a perceived lack of free speechicensorship many seem to misinterpret my advocating for anonymous communication and highlighting that it allows people to share things they otherwise wouldn't be comfortable with on other platforms as 'you can say and do anything on 4chan," which simply isn't the case. We've had rules and moderators since the site was founded '11 years ago, and I've only reinforced this statement over the years, a la: https:Warchive.moe iqthreadi58008O# 5801 135 To those who actualy want to use to discuss vidya and not a movement that has outgrown 4chan (a la Project Chanology) apologies for the inconvenience. aquapendulum Something nubs me the wrong way about this sticky post now that I think about it.
