  1. Well its clear why you make generalizations about SJW, you are woefully uninformed about the broader SJ movement. You only see the movement in the context of gaming and how it impacts you I can help you change that mindset..but it will take time as I'll be honest there will be loads of work and understanding for us to get through? Oh? What if all of this started with a MALE developer, lets call him Zachary Quinn, sleeping with five female journalists for favourable coverage. Not only that, he would've sabotaged a game jam, then created his own with a personal paypal account for donations. He would've also gone to court and solicited a gag order on his former lover, who wrote an embaressing blog about their relationship. Finally, thanks to his friends and connections he would've silenced discussions about the affairs on Reddit, 4chan and so on. Tell me, how would the mainstream media have handled this? Difficult to say. Its always hard to comment on a hypothetical example when the scenario is so unlikely But if he was being harassed online like Zoe Quinn I'm sure he would have received support from some people? Don't pretend to be dumb now. Would've the SJWs listen and believed Zachary Quinn's story and defended him unquestionally? Well you wont like my answer but I doubt it. And the reason is not because SJW don't care about white, heterosexual males its more to do with the reality that this group is the least likely group in the world that is discriminated against. So the SJ structures aren't understandably so evolved for discrimination against this group so I imagine there just would naturally be less outrage? That's why I said the scenario is very unlikely So social justice has to be applied to certain groups of people on the expense of others? Isn't that inheritely injustice? Which that is my point. Making social justice a zero-sum game where some are more equal than others will never work.

  4. They sure remind me about certain kind of people though: http://i.imgur.com/1xaxd.jpg
  5. The key is to be very vague about what you mean in order to avoid admitting you've said something stupid. In other news, the Honey Badgers, a group of women, were kicked out of the CalgaryExpo for gamergate art on display. The above was the evidence used to show that it was a plan to infiltrate a community they had been a part of for decades. The irony of SJWs getting women kicked out of a convention is also hilarious in a sad way. Advertisers for anyone in an e-mailing position. Inclusivety is only for the rights opinions, you morans.

  7. Has it ever occured to you that Wookies might, just might dye their fur when they get older? Check your naked privilege.
  8. Sweet Jesus, this is a looong burn:

  11. What's the matter guys? Don't you want the first dude in the white house?
  12. We cannot judge people by the content of their character, but rather by their social standing within their institutionalized structure applied by the academia. That's just common sense.
  13. Interesting facts about congressional briefings: https://twitter.com/PlayDangerously/status/588398975197163520 Polygon covers it...neutrally??! https://archive.today/J1ep6 The journalist is questioned out for this strange use of language and the response is equally weird: https://twitter.com/crecenteb/status/588362122419183617
  14. I just need to point out with a separate slide from the earlier link: "Do you think that you can stop me? You better think again Because my name is eternal terror and my quest will NEVER end"
  15. I'm sure segregationists are kicking themselves over that they could've gotten their way if they sugar coated "separate but equal" with safe spaces. Any news on the FBI investigation? Have they found the dank memes? *crickets* so far. And in other news, Zoe Quinn has appeared in a congressional briefing on online harassment against women. It's only time before we will see the first bills on ending internet anonymity.

  17. Oh dear, the amount of sass: http://www.breitbart.com/london/2015/04/14/im-sooo-bored-of-being-gay/ On a more serious note, Usher has a new article out: http://blogjob.com/oneangrygamer/2015/04/games-journalist-complains-about-gamergate-while-more-corruption-surfaces/
  18. Check your privilege, you white cis-het ableist scum! I'm disabled. :U OH WAIT IMSORRY, I'm a person with a disability. Almost offended myself there. I know, thus the joke

  20. The patriarchy strikes again: http://www.pnas.org/content/early/2015/04/08/1418878112.abstract No wonder gaming-journalism is in trouble, just look at the staff at Polygon!
