Journalism and sexism in the games industry

You guys know that all these websites rely on advertising, which rely on the amount of hits that website gets.  So if you want these websites to burn or whatever, all you really have to do is stop visiting them.

Which is why links are Archived.

@Messhugger Near as I can tell, waking someone up to the truth(or what you believe to be truth) is what it means. Probably a reference to The Matrix.

Can you give a synopsis?  I don't really want to watch a 10 minute video.

Leigh Alexander is slipping towards racism once again:

https://archive.today/22aT3

 

And who the F is this? Never heard of this person. Can kiss my ass and then suck it for what its worth.

 

 

 

She's a Gamasutra journalist who became notable because she's especially blunt and cruel in her tweets. Other things she's tweeted about in the past have involved another racist tweet, essentially bragging about ending someone's career, and I guess what you'd call power trip taunts.

 

To me, the most interesting thing about her is the story where she wrote a book, a company offered to publish it, and then later when the very same company responsible for her book being published went and published another guy's book which had ideologies opposed to her own, she felt justified in "pirating" her own book and making it free online so that the very people who paid her for her book would not see any returns or profit off of her book....and then she bragged about this publicly on stage.

Black man calls out bigotry for about 10 minutes.

[Hurlshort]

What does that have to do with Alanschu?

[PK htiw klaw eriF]

What does that have to do with Alanschu?

1. Alanshu is anti-gg.

2. The examples of bigotry come from anti-gg.

3. Therefore alanshu supports said bigotry.

 

Not a fan of deductive reasoning and not necessarily agreeing with it, but there you go.

[Hurlshort]

Is alanschu actually anti-gg?

 

Or does he just think it's a stupid movement, like I do.

 

It's basically fighting stupidity with stupidity, from what I can see.

Newsflash, half of the world is blunt and cruel. I suspect that if you would piss off some tramp in any bigger city she would look like an angel with whatever she writes. It's just the mark of the current age that any "tramp" can become a journalist, because "interwebz". I am fairly sure that if I would create a blog and list my uncensored thoughts over there and lin them to some "gamer sites", I'd get a massive coverage within days.... but maybe not, cuse I am not a woman...

 

From what you wrote, for me she is just your typical standard stupid cow (I fear to use other word because SJW...) and I could not care less... If not for the internet no one would ever hear of her, because she is too dumb to achieve anything and her only saving grace is that she is a decent looking woman in gaming journalism... and since I am not in the "passionate gamers" demographics, I never heard of her and proably half a dozen more of similar dumbasses. I am even amazed with myself that I decided to participate in this sort of discussion on the internet, but I guess the T-shirt dramma ticked me off in a wrong way decently enough to push me to this sort of action.

Nah he has engaged a bit, not like you. At least I have seen him pop up with stuff with Wu or Alexander or Cheong. Was waiting for him to descend on this thread with a sermon, actually, once DAI went live.

 

Always thought redpill stuff was just guys seeing women as machines to game to get expected payouts. I suppose such sociopathic thinking is effective these days, moral issues aside.

Alan is a  very formidable debating adversary but he also makes his points in very reasonable way

 

He makes loads of sense and is very informed, people could learn a lot from his insights

What a load of bollocks, author sounds like a teenage wanna be lover scorned.

 

Also, that's not redpilling; is essentially any information that's paradigm shifting like the red pill on the matrix it will change your reality. Does that really need explaining?

Well that was assumed, but i didn't know that there was a general lingo for it or even a group or movement behind it today. But meh, i had hoped for something cool like Fight Club, at least that would've been manly. Those guys in Aluminums link are just the antimatter, or the anti-BruceVC, to SJWs. Contrarian for the sake of being contrarian.

[TrashMan]

Leigh Alexander?

She's loony on a power trip. Involved in lots of shady stuff, corruption and slinging insults left and right. A horrible, unapologetic person.

Wow is this link for real? Or is it some kind of parody

 

It contains some of the most uninformed and sexist comments I have ever read about gender equality....he can't be serious ?

[Fighter]

Why does it surprise you that something like that exists?

[BruceVC]

Why?

 

I can understand someone questioning gender equality and the various mediums that represent it and if they are effective

 

But that link is just trash...what possible outcome does the writer think he is going to achieve by being so completely dismissive, its basically unashamed misogyny

[Fighter]

But it should not surprise you it exists. In a world where radical feminism also exists.

Oh yes. That site is full of even juicier stuff, like how all women are naturally submissive and choking them improves sex life or something.

 

It deserves to be visited and mocked mercilessly.

[BruceVC]

Yeah good point, I find the statements of radical feminists equally offensive

 

I still am shocked by the whole " consensual sex is the same as rape " on that radical feminist blog

It seems like radical feminist are more concerned with controlling women than liberating women from gender based oppression.

Yeah, there motives confuse me

 

I would like to meet a  radical fem one day (  I don't know any)  and genuinely find out what is the objective of the movement. I imagine like all these types of movements there are different interpretations of what  radical feminism stands for?
