kirottu Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 (edited) Lets see what good arguments the other side has: https://archive.today/2OTLD Both /baphomet/ and #GamerGate claim they’re unrelated to each other, yet somehow, most of /baphomet/’s targets happen to be outspoken #GamerGate critics. How can these "journalists" be this stupid. SWJs were in orgasmic bliss when 8chan got taken down -> 8chan hosts /baphomet/ boards -> /baphomet/ got angry at SWJs. It's not rocket science.

Blarghagh Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Hold on. Can anyone explain this to me? They DDoS'd the board that hosts Baphomet, so Baphomet retaliates, and somehow it's GamerGate's fault? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They DDoS'd the board that hosts Baphomet, so Baphomet retaliates, and somehow it's GamerGate's fault?Baphomet and Gamergate boards are both hosted by 8chan, so anything Baphomet does is the fault of the misogynist known as Gamergate. Of course believing this means you have to disregard 1)Baphomet saying they aren't gamergate and 2)The notion of personal responsibility/accountability. They've already discarded 2, and despite baph doxing a sea lion and his wife, I'm sure they will disregard 1. By this logic, any subreddit must take responsibility for any other subreddit, but they've rarely been consistent with logic.

Meshugger Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 This what they (/baphomet/) say themselves about the whole thing: Hi lurking GGers. I just wanted to leave a quick reminder not to be lulz killers. I have no problems with /gamergate/ insofar as you lot are mostly content to stay in your own corner and let us do our thing. The moralfags are an entirely different story. :^) "Some men see things as they are and say why?""I dream things that never were and say why not?"- George Bernard Shaw"Hope in reality is the worst of all evils because it prolongs the torments of man."- Friedrich Nietzsche "The amount of energy necessary to refute bull**** is an order of magnitude bigger than to produce it." - Some guy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orogun01 Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Any moderate statement by a game dev would have to tread on ice in order to not have you be branded a bigot by the so called tolerant social justice movement. Anything that isn't anti-gg enough or, haven forbid, contains even the slightest criticism of feminism and other "isms" would summon the outrage brigade with their pitchforks. To be fair any support for anti-gg will summon a wave of tweets and emails trying to prove you wrong and put any company you work for under some scrutiny or potentially on a Op against it. So far I haven't seen GG get anyone directly fired but they are also pretty reactionary when it comes to statements. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Volourn Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 ".thats why I said this whole debate has just become toxic" Good. The more toxic the discussion is the less likely mainstream society will take anyone seriously which means things will overall be left the same which it should be.

Zoraptor Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Meh, I dislike the PCGMR meme* especially because it is so often used unironically. Actually bothering to write an article moralising about it using 'nazi' terminology is pretty moronic though, the meme is essentially harmless, it is often used with the correct irony and you aren't going to get a positive reaction in any case. The people who don't like it don't use it already, the people who do like it will think you're a unit of vietnamese currency who is taking things too seriously by half- and really, don't you have something, anything more important to write about? *I really wish the people who didn't use it most often and most unironically weren't also the ones insistent upon lionising the software console that is steam vs hardware consoles. Yeah guys, voluntarily turning your open system into a closed one makes you so superior to those buying a closed one straight off, thumbsup you awsum free thinkers you. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nonek Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 PC master species? PC Ubermensch? Advocates of the platform exhibiting superiority? Council of undisputable and noticable technological superiority? Kryptonians? Betters? 5 Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.I've seen things you people can't even imagine. Pearly Kings glittering on the Elephant and Castle, Morris Men dancing 'til the last light of midsummer. I watched Druid fires burning in the ruins of Stonehenge, and Yorkshiremen gurning for prizes. All these things will be lost in time, like alopecia on a skinhead. Time for tiffin. Tea for the teapot!
