  2. It's been talked about on infinitechan and KiA, and some are doing it. Not sure if it's going anywhere, but will be interesting to see. That's about what I thought already. Good read anyway. This is what I've been saying all along! Yeah, I hope this starts some conversation on differences on the Authoritarian/Libertarian axis instead of just making everything a Left vs. Right conflict. As someone who leans left on economic issues, I've felt increasingly alienated by a Left-wing that seems increasingly authoritarian and prone to postmodernist idiocy.

  4. How much crack is your mayor smoking now?
  5. I told most of my family to **** off today. Hopefully it's good riddance.
  6. I'll admit to having a hard time understanding Dutch. Of course, as an American I'm under the assumption if you yell in English loud enough anyone can understand you.
  7. I can never tell with Bruce.
  8. @TN very sad. From your perspective how do you feel misrepresented ? Can you give examples That was a joke Bruce.
  9. I can genuinely explain it to you in more detail if you are interested? Feel free.
  10. I've never understood why people pay for sex.
  11. Played this for about an hour last night. Probably the least enjoyable build so far. Creatures are insane compared to the party, who seemed to get a down grade, and I'm getting a lot of frame rate issues when I encounter them. Not sure how many more tweaks classes are going to get, but they need a lot of work.
  12. Not Gamergate specifically, the Authoritarian v. Libertarian conflict. I do believe that Gamergate is a facet of that, and what evidence there is shows that the group commonly refereed to as "pro-gg" tend to lean libertarian. 1. The ideological divide between the desire for more personal freedom and the desire for more governmental power/control in order to provide order and enforce "niceness". 2. The debate over government surveillance without a warrant.(see PATRIOT act) Essentially is it worth giving up your right to privacy in order to give the authorities more tools to supposedly prevent terrorism.
  13. During the Cold War the Russians were very keen to infiltrate counterculture movements to undermine the West they obviously didn't think it was pointless, specially since they used those methods to subvert Afghanistan.Nowadays you see the result of what the Left has brought, you just have to look at Sweden to see an extreme of what this ideology means when it affects politics. Plus you have them also affecting the media because they want to preach their ideology, therefore they have turned entertainment into a political battlefield. Maybe you don't see this a relevant but sadly your opinion doesn't change the fact that if they are ignored they will end up controlling the medium as they did with Games Journalism and the Indie scene. These are not isolated incidents as other facets of nerd culture have been affected, namely the tabletop and comic book communities. Hi Guys I'm back from my Xmas holiday, I had a great time Do you really see the GG movement as significant as the ideological conflict of the Cold War? I'm not sure if you being serious? No, I do see it as a part of the Authoritarian v. Libertarian conflict though. I would say that is possibly as significant as the Cold War, despite being a largely democratic battle inside nations rather than a diplomatic battle between nations.
  14. I just find it a bit ****ed up coming from esteemed advocates of women. And Mike Cernovich and Chris Kluweare having a throwdown.
  15. She's a girl who uses the tag and some aGGros are passing around a picture of her that someone **** a load on.
  16. Welp I just saw something pretty gross on KiA. Won't link cuz would get me the banhammer, but it's something pretty screwed up that happened to Lizzy.
  17. The guy who started Notyourshield and was fired after someone called his employer is now being reported as suicidal. http://m.imgur.com/yAjR0l7
  18. I'll be quite interested to read the second part of that article, to see if it comes to the same general conclusion I have. While I don't really like the Cultural Marxism label I do think there is a fair bit of 'Cultural Stalinism' which explains why you have two predominantly left leaning groups fighting each other. Stalin was about as much concerned- if not more so- with fighting the wrong sort of leftist as with fighting rightists, and with purging those who were disloyal or ideologically impure leftists. That is pretty much what antiGG is about, purging the wrong sorts of left leaning people so only proper thinkers remain. Not up to the kulaks or mass graves level though of course, except in some of their dreams. I think that is the conclusion to draw, given the data presented. IMO this is primarily a battle between Authoritarian and Libertarian groups, and as such there is some elements of "true left" in some conversations. I've also noticed a difference in economic and class thought, but that would be a long TL;DR. You are taking to a brick wall dude. Remember, Ghazi's sole purpose is to sling poop, talking to them just gets you dirty. I would be lying if I said I didn't agree to an extent, but I also believe that if we don't TRY every so often, then we both cannot expect **** to change and we'd become just as guilty of being brick walls. I also like to think that sometimes these people may not see what I'm saying immediately, but maybe in a year's time they'll remember a comment I made and it'll help them come to terms with something faster. Lastly, I consider people who may read from the sidelines. If I make an honest effort to communicate and discuss things civilly and I get called scum for it...well, guess who walks away with a better reputation. But yeah the AgaGalneer person in particular is just an awful stereotype of what GamerGhazi is. It's both sickening and saddening to see a person like that actually exists. I get where you coming from, as I did the same with a "DrPizza", but for the most part I try to avoid directly engaging ghazelles because it's just going to consist of goalpost shifting and being called names.

  20. http://gamepolitics.com/2014/12/29/editorial-gamergate-political-attitudes-part-1-movement-right-wing#.VKGTpAAFA For being a hive of right-wingers, KiA seems to be oddly dominated by left leaning people.
