kirottu Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 It's almost like christmas right now for GamerGate. At least some of it must be not true. That's just how things are in the internets, right? Then again if you build your whole narrative around lies it must come crumbling down at some point. I don't know what to think. This post is not to be enjoyed, discussed, or referenced on company time.

Longknife Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) This is what GGers face every day: https://twitter.com/SlowpokeTail/status/529970618117423104 I can say without a shadow of a doubt that if different university majors all appeared on a spectrum that traced various patterns of thought prominent amongst the majors (for example analytical, calculating, logical, creative, etc.) that it would seem SJWs study things that are quite possibly the polar opposite of a law degree, and if I had the power and influence I would try to create a law that says it's illegal to call yourself a SJW and make a claim about where the burden of proof lies at the same time. They are clearly incapable of using the claim responsibly. By this same logic, if I accuse you of being a murderer, the burden of proof is on you to prove you're not a murderer, you fantastically incompetent f***tards. It doesn't work that way because if you named Person A as someone I murdered and I proved I didn't, you could then say Person B, then Person C, then D, etc etc etc and it'd never end. It's impossible to prove a negative ("I am not a murderer;" you can never know this with absolute certainty), it's possible to prove a positive. ("He is a murderer") Therefore, the burden of proof is on them. This is basic stuff... Edited November 5, 2014 by Longknife "The Courier was the worst of all of them. The worst by far.

TrashMan Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 Which is why we need SJW's to tell us. I've seen SWJ's shaming women, telling trans people they own them ("You only have you freedom and rights because we fought for you! All you had to so was show loyalty as thanks!" ) and doing all kinds of racist, hateful stuff. It boggles my mind that the Internet Hate Machine turned out to be the good guys, while those SJW's turned out the villains. * YOU ARE A WRONGULARITY FROM WHICH NO RIGHT CAN ESCAPE! *Chuck Norris was wrong once - He thought HE made a mistake!

I can't see how anyone, no matter how much of an indoctrinated follower can in good conscience want to become a slave for these sneering morons. 3 Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it?

Malcador Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) Man, only **** reply in line. Indeed, there is far more to this. Harassment has happened, I will not deny that, but it is not the responsibility of the moderate majority to apologise for the behavior of trolls. (It’s not their responsibility to apologise, it’s their responsibility to admit their part in maintaining an atmosphere where abuse and harassment are doubted for no good reason, lies are spread continuously, and any and all responsibility is denied for maintaining the movement that is undoubtedly correlated if not causal with the environment of fear and harassment) Uh huh.

Orogun01 Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 On another angle, Oliver Campbell has hinted at findings from FBI and DHS investigation that some of the reported harassment and threats were made by the recipients.So far, he hasn't released any concrete proof but has encouraged people to use the FOIA to request the information.So...get hype, i guess. I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"* *If you can't tell, it's you.
Meshugger Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 Ooh, someone has taken on the task of replying to TotalBiscuit's... thingy. Summary. Whatever. I do not see little proof about anything, just a different opinion. And ending it with "...with what I think is a pretty good summation of why I think GamerGate is a morally and intellectually bankrupt movement, and has been from the start." ...does not help with examples, such as: "This is a misleading tale. Well-meaning GamerGate members [who people have widely acknowledged do exist] or members who knew it would make them look bad, did try to bury Brianna’s doxx while it sat unadressed by moderators for several hours. However, 8chan’s unlisted boards, which aren’t as tied to GamerGate as the explicitly labelled /gg/ board, are still well known and used by /gg/ members. Mods have stickied guidelines on how to properly collect and distribute doxx and the rules surrounding such. The slur used there is referring to one of their victims. The public areas of /gg/ may be sanitised of any direct incriminating actions, [though other very problematic behaviour and discussion is rampant] but the unlisted 8chan boards are far from clean" ...err, so what should be done?

PK htiw klaw eriF Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 Why is DHS involved ? Some threats are their jurisdiction. Could be threats came from outside the US.
