Journalism and sexism in the games industry
PK htiw klaw eriF replied to Gorth's topic in Way Off-Topic
Apparently there is a video of the attack, but the alleged victim isn't allowed to talk about it during an investigation. He was rescued by a porn star though, so silver lining. Swatting hasn't been confirmed so who knows for certain. Wouldn't be the first time though. What's annoying is there's multiple claims of various things going on, but we won't know for weeks or months if they're bold-faced lies or true, simply because they involve the police, FBI or the court system. Gonna be honest though, I think divas aren't exclusive to one group. I question the validity of claims from both sides. I'm waiting for verification myself, but it does seem(from my biased POV) that one side seems to be crying wolf much more than the other.- 641 replies

It's amazing how many facts can one get wrong in a single paragraph: It didn't start at 4chan. Eron didn't spread Zoe's nudes(they can be found at soft porn site where she has put them herself). It wasn't reviews, it was positive coverage.If you repeat a lie enough... Oh and http://www.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/2mjhxo/be_careful_people_margaret_gel_icze4r_just_got/ Apparently another pro-ethics person gets doxxed, this time a woman. "It's actually about gender equality". Also: What is it with male feminists telling women how women really have it?- 641 replies

If it would be for me, I'd say "thanks, but please give the money to a charity of some sorts." Really, I don't think accepting this gift (or giving it in the first place) is a good idea./Edit: Besides, if it really has nothing to do with politics, as is stated at the bottom of the page, then it is still a bad idea, because he certainly isn't the only one on the team who did the work. He is just the most prominent face. So if it really has to be, then it should be a gift for everyone involved, imo. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/matt-taylor-rosetta-project-scientist#description "If more money is received, it would make it possible to either organize a large dinner for the entire team or send everyone a bottle of whiskey with a custom label mentioning their names and role in the mission" It's over double the requested, I'm pretty sure they will get some whiskey.- 641 replies

Trust but verify. There is apparently video, so we should hold out for that. In addition, Kotaku has been knocked off the first page of Steam curators. It is a woman and it has been over funded. Of course it's misogynist and evil because that money should be going to Patreons of indie devs.- 641 replies

We don't think tacky shirts are equal to harassing over tacky shirts. Please, do show me that famed harrassment. I'm genuinely curious. You don't see how calling someone sexist for wearing a shirt is harassment? http://www.theverge.com/2014/11/13/7213819/your-bowling-shirt-is-holding-back-progress Because clearly, Matt Taylor's shirt is actively keeping women out of science. And the horrible misogynist who made the shirt: You can find her at https://twitter.com/ellypriZeMaN I suggest you let her know how horrible she is for keeping women out of science. EDIT: Thinking in it, perhaps "harassment" isn't the right word. I suppose the definition of it as "aggressive pressure or intimidation" applies, but it feels less direct and more like "unfounded criticism that is harsh". Anyone got a word for that?- 641 replies
