Unbearable F----- 11/07/14 (Fri) 08:55:31 ID: 58cbd8 No.449029 2449042 448740 >Are you asserting that videogames can and do influence attitudes and behavior? You're misrepresenting the situation. As games exist, and have existed, they do not on any measurable level. DiGRA however is researching ways to make them do so however for DARPA. To try and mold "ideal citizens" as they say Now when you say behavior you are speaking in a direct and literal way The fact is, the narrative effects social conditioning and beliefs. This is less behavior and more focused on ones precursory ideals and beliefs. We see this constantly in media (and academia) today. Now there is a large research firm trying to find a way to do this in the most effective way possible That is disgusting, that is dangerous, and does NOT sit okay with me. Ideas and beliefs should be challenged and created. They want to take their echo chamber and encompass western society with it For f---- sake even in the OP's post look what they cite for information. The fem-bot collective. It's in the f------ article. Do you know the literature they cite for their beliefs? Where the "gamers are dead articles come" from? Violence has nothing to do with it and is a s--- argument. Social values can be taught through ALL media where thoughts are idealized and instilled. This institution has an incredibly intense and extreme politic al/social view and are trying to find ways to spread that F---. That DiGRA mission makes Scientology look like a playground Unbearable F----- 11/07/14 (Fri) 09:04:46 ID: 58cbd8 No.449099 22449128 49148 449297 449042 but it's important to note that Digra doesn't necessarily work on behalf of Darpa. Look into funding of Games for Change and related persuasive game conferences and organizations. Look into the use of games in education. Which only concerns me more. Their board of directors are made up nearly entirely (2 exceptions?) of radic al feminists. Much of their research papers cite people like Andrea Dworkins as sources At heart I can see the good intent of an organization set up to try and find ways to effectively teach young kids. But much of their research going through a couple dozen papers (I participated in digging DiGRA) delves into finding methods to effectively imprint beliefs on to impressionable people. These same people openly talk about radic al feminists as pioneers of social rights and sciences l've spent endless hours reading through their papers. And no matter how I cut it, at the end of it all, all I can see is endless research into trying to instill the most extremist parts of tumblr and social sciences into mainstream society. To subtly take radic al extreme beliefs out of the fringe territory and convert people to it.

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
