Journalism and sexism in the games industry


LadyCrimson

Recommended Posts

 

Ivy Clover is going bananas on his/her (unsure) Twitter. This may be pretty entertaining, if not a solid positive break, in the end.

Thanks for the heads up, TN.

 

 

Yeah, her twitter feed is all in caps-lock. Difficult to tell what's (she?)'s on about.

Yeah claiming that goldbat is a Dev at a AAA company and has dirt on the journalists that is of a level that they will need lawyers. I am skeptical given the erratic behavior, but I will wait and see.

So an anonymous account makes a bad joke about the ferguson-riots and people doxx him/her and their mom in hope that someone will burn their house down. Sounds logical, normal and morally sound. Kinda like the same morals as of certain journalists.

 

 

 

AFAIK, the person who wrote that lyrics is a little girl.

Have a source, Barothmuk? I was also told it was a 14 year old girl, but not by a credible source so I'm happy to be corrected. :)

 

(Also, I believe this is the first time I spelled your username correctly because for some reason I always end up writing Barthomuk. Sorry about that.)

 

EDIT: A couple of survey results. I don't believe in surveys very much but I figured I'd pass them along.

I don't really follow tumblr's political ****-flinging but I'm aware her notoriety is not really a recent phenomenon.

 

Her twitter certainly shows her to be an adult, plus I do recall seeing this picture of her with her alleged ex Matt Heimbach (some white nationalist crypto-nazi type) doing the rounds.

I always mis-type it when trying to sign in.

Old, but shows the double-think some are capable of.

They hate Hitchens more because he would challenge and humiliate them in any form of debate. Bin Laden not so much, since he was in their eyes, a product of american foreign policy, which ofcourse that they also happen to disagree with.

ZQ is calling Brad Wardell a liar again on twitter. Most likely hilarity will ensue.

 

Meanwhile, something to think about:

"25. Because it was created by a straight white man, this checklist will likely be taken more seriously than if it had been written by virtually any female gamer."

 

Nope, it's more full of **** than my toilet this morning.

A guy drew some comics that Brad liked and asked for a resume. ZQ did some digging and found out that he did some NSFW-comics as well about her, and is now accusing Brad of trying to hire bullies to Starsoft. RPS and Jim Sterling(huh?) jump in and condemn him for this:

That's mind blowingly idiotic, but par for the course with those people, I guess. Probably just butthurt her medium tantrum about ethics wasn't picked up due to being full of ****.

 

Also, what's the deal with Anthony Burch? I keep hearing something about neopotism, porn, and failed marriage but I have no idea what's going on.

One sentence....

 

Are they ****ing stupid?!

 

Of course you can be harassed, stalked, groped, etc. Sure not if you are bat**** ugly like most of those losers.... but that doesn't mean it does not happen. I've been slapped on my ass by an unknown girl in a club, I was hit on by some guys offering me a drink at a bar...

 

I could not go beyond the point 5 on that video, it's just too much "stupid" and real bad generalization.

Anthony Burch is best....left alone. The guy seems to have severe psychological issues and is spewing crap like that Tait guy.

Ironically, he asked Zoe to send a resume last year which makes it obvious it's not personal.
