Seems a bit silly though, acting as if you are guilty of someone else's deeds. Also makes it a joke for your opponents to control you as well, given it is Twitter based. Good comedy at any rate

How exactly do you do that, though, just stop using a hashtag the moment some one says something 'offensive' ?

AAA Companies aren't as easily trolled, and also don't make good victims.

Funny too, I had thought GG was out of steam this week. Well timed death threats stoked things back up

Herr Cheong is sending death threats!

Did you write that ? Amusing to use a site that pretty much bans anyone that isn't like you pretty much. Some of the points he listed out is true, but have to think he's not going to list points they are correct about.

Well, I guess Sarkeesian is the common point. That and, well, people bashed a woman and that's always misogyny. But as one can expect from the Internet equivalent of a bulletin board, it's all a confused and angry mess.

As always, SMAC was better

So now a new hashtag is born! #StopGamerGate2014, as Sarkeesian faced a massacre threat. Ah, crazies ruin it for everyone

Bit much to claim people slinging crap online as 'vigilante justice'

Beats me, but that is the buzz I am reading. Also the last line about "8chan isn't all about you" was offensive...er somehow. People are weird.

Kain made one good point in his rather useless visit, Twitter is awful for a discussion. Apparently Wu crushed GamerGate in that video...seemed a whole lot of nothing to me.

Yep, but then backed off when she found out some dude from 8Chan would be there.

Shame Quinn wasn't there

The Beginning of the End of ISIS?
So far they've beheaded people, forced people to dig their own graves, raped, involved in child trafficking and generally seem to revel in utter savagery. This really doesn't really lower my opinion of them at this point.

Doesn't really make them look worse.

James Desborough? Also, Milo dude and his "you get your t*ts out for a living" comment? Seems more insulting than sexist, there. Amusingly, Quinn was invited to a HuffPo interview that turned out to be a debate, and she has cancelled in a panic.

Not likely, even if it does, well no loss. Never did understand this need to have the hobby be mainstream. This week will probably have some nice mainstream pieces analyzing the issue. Not sure what Wu means by 'dialogue' between men and women in the industry, when she follows up with 'listening' to the women. Or how that can actually be implemented as a solution.
