"This all came out on the same day... because all of those games "journalists" are on GameJournoPro - the game equivalent of Ezra Klein's leftist JournoList that suppressed stories about Obama because they bought ink by the barrel and chose the stories that would be written. " Firstly, this thread is about Anita's attacks on Video games , which all began from the controversial relationship between an employer of Kotaku[blog about games] and a game developer. Anita is a Feminist, who used kick starter to raise over 100K to attack the video game industry. Back lash against both events reached the media, and the spin is that Gamers are angry misogynist nerds. It's bullshit. #Gamergate was coined, by a conservative actor. It includes many grievances, like the politicization of games. [ We're sick of Feminist/SJW's trying to force Political Correctness into Games. we want to play our games!] We don't want the SAFE ACT of video games to materialize. What if your kids grew up with games focusing on gay lesbian transgendered topics instead of adventure or military and not having any other topics because PC forced them out?[/span][/span] Why should you care about video games? Because young people play them, and they eventually start voting at 18. So far Gamers have enjoyed lack of politicizing things in video games. We can play call of duty and battlefield without Bloomberg jumping out at us on how we should ban guns. I think ignoring the fact that First person shooters have brought on a new generation of shooters to the community is dumb to ignore. Why should arfcom conservatives and gun enthusiasts keep watch? Because the left is launching an ALL OUT ASSAULT to try to control video games and insert ultra left messages. There is a huge BACKLASH against this because the left doesn't know shit about video games or internet subcultures. If you try to destroy the gaming industry, censor, and politicize videos games that are apolitical to begin with, in order to gain supporters. It will fail. you're telling video gamers to stop being video gamers. Or in this case, you're trying to change their identity. playing an i-Phone game doesn't make you a hardcore gamer. and in this community, some Social justice warrior blogger throwing accusations of misogyny, racism, and right wing conspiracy's isn't going to fly. Gamers play games, accusing them as being right wing extremists is going nowhere. Conservatives have a chance to win against leftists by pushing for the online worlds independance, and by extension video game development and journalism to be independent from outside politics, corruption and plan old liberal bullying. Save some time in the comments. Quoted:
I'm honestly not that interested in the gaming industry, View Quote TLDR: Gun people and conservatives are unaware of an ongoing culture war, the leftists are fighting video gamers, and the video gamers are by themselves. In my opinion, Video gamers should get support from right leaning blogs and news outlets because the gaming community is being drowned out by the leftists. If conservatives win the Independent gaming identity, it would be good PR among younger people. GamerGate: Angry Feminists, Unethical Journalists Are the Ones Not Welcome in the Gaming Community The video game community is perhaps the most inclusive, gender neutral and colourblind on the internet. It's also remarkably diverse, producing such offbeat pleasures as My Ex-Boyfriend The Space Tyrant and Gender Bender DNA Twister Extreme. So it was a strange choice of target for feminist culture warriors, who heaved ominously into view a few years ago, like the genocidal, psychopathic aliens in Independence Day. It was time to do away with all that "fun" people were having, said these grievance-mongering killjoy arrivistes, and start taking seriously the overwhelmingly clear moral obligation to include at least six minorities, four gay dudes and a paraplegic illegal immigrant lesbian in every major video game release. I'm exaggerating, obviously. But not by much: these bizarre campaigners, deploying a series of disingenuous and morally questionable tactics, such as goading people into making unpleasant remarks and then using those statements to publicly beg for sympathy and cash, have made gamers' lives a misery these last few years. And yet, to the confusion of the troublemakers, barking orders and concocting bogus allegations of misogyny have not yielded results. Nor have the distraction tactics deployed by journalists sympathetic to the social justice warriors' causes, designed to draw attention away from those journalists' own moral failings -- shortcomings which have been known about for a long time, but which are only now being called out by readers en masse, because industry sites such as Kotaku and Polygon have chosen rather than to defend their industries to attack their readers. To the feminist campaigners trying to ruin video games for everyone and a press that refuses to reform itself despite clear evidence of professional failure, gamers have responded with all the heroic defiance of Will Smith delivering a nuke into the mothership -- and with just as much style. Through a series of fundraisers and lobbying efforts, as well as polite but firm advocacy on Twitter, they have begun to formulate a coherent intellectual and activist response to those who mystifyingly claim that their games and their culture are both somehow ugly, bigoted and evil. #GamerGate has raised over $5,000 for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, blowing past a $2,000 target in just an hour. This figure easily eclipses the sub-$1,000 donation that activist developer Zoe Quinn, whose personal and professional antics kicked off #GamerGate, says she donated to iFred.org. Remarkably, users of popular messageboard 4chan in a single evening contributed over $20,000 to The Fine Young Capitalists, a charity drive for women in gaming that Quinn's supporters attempted and failed to sabotage, according to organisers. Posters on 4chan's video game messageboard, /v/, helped to create a fictional character, Vivian James, an ordinary girl who happens to hate "social justice warriors" and love playing video games -- like many women in the gaming community. The Vivian James meme is slated to appear in a future Fine Young Capitalists release and serves as a reminder that not only is the gaming community welcoming and tolerant but that it deals with insurrectionists with good humour, creativity and kindness. Perhaps more significantly, two top-tier gaming websites, Polygon and Kotaku, have grudgingly changed internal policies as a result of #GamerGate campaigners' frustration with their ethical practices. They both now have a more grown-up attitude to donations site Patreon, which funds many of the social justice campaigners' activities and on which many journalists were supporting people they also wrote about. In a far-sighted move, The Escapist, a major gaming publication that seems to have survived the row, engaged with readers on the issue before publishing an editorial that committed the site to new levels of journalistic transparency. The Escapist's refusal to censor critics, almost unique in the industry, is a sign that at least some clusters of journalists are sympathetic to the new, stricter expectations of readers. The signs are that readers are abandoning sites which don't raise their game, in favour of indie reviewers, some of whom are making considerable amounts of money by focusing on games reviews and eschewing long, hand-wringing op-eds about "misogyny." #GamerGate has exposed both the feminist campaigners and even some gaming journalists as completely out of touch with the very reasons people play games. Gamers, as dozens of readers have told me in the relatively short time I have been covering the controversy now called #GamerGate, play games to escape the frustrations and absurdities of everyday life. That's why they object so strongly to having those frustrations injected into their online worlds. The war in the gaming industry isn't about right versus left, or tolerance versus bigotry: it's between those who leverage video games to fight proxy wars about other things, introducing unwanted and unwarranted tension and misery, and those who simply want to enjoy themselves. In any male-dominated industry, you’re going to find people who speak about women in ways you'd rather they didn't. (That cuts both ways, of course: women when they get together aren't shrinking violets when it comes to discussing the size of their boyfriend's penis, and what he does with it.) And you're going to find games catering to male sexual appetites by including explicit imagery of women. Game developers who pay heed to the conceited attention-seekers and useful idiots in the media are likely to see their creations fail in the marketplace. There's an assumption in these feminist critiques that this is somehow a cause for shame or outrage. It is not. There's nothing unnatural about male gamers enjoying attractive female characters. What's unnatural is trying to police it. Feminist campaigners such as Zoe Quinn and Anita Sarkeesian won't like this comparison, but what their mission represents is a new kind of sexually dysfunctional authority clamping down on the sexuality of the great unwashed, like politicians and some churches throughout history. With more women playing video games, we can look forward to game studios releasing titles that cater to female sexual preferences and tastes. More big upper arms and rippling chests, that sort of thing (not that hyper-masculine and sexualized male characters don't already exist). That's something to look forward to. The last thing anyone wants is for everyone to be condemned to a sexless, funless misery-land that makes no one happy, in which the possibility of causing "offence" has been eradicated. That's the real world gamers are trying to get away from in the first place! Unhappy, egotistical people will always try to spread their misery around. So it is with Quinn and Sarkeesian. But we should resist their attempts to cover this innocent pastime in shame and opprobrium, because their criticisms are entirely without merit. If there's one thing #GamerGate activism is proving, it's that there is no bigotry problem in the gaming industry: it's an illusion, cooked up by people with axes to grind. The only group that genuinely isn't welcome is that small but noisy battalion of social justice warriors, who bring nothing but gloom and despair, and their loyal band of incompetent, unethical bloggers, who are so desperate to advertise their upstanding moral virtue to the sisterhood that they have forgotten to check their consciences. We should resist this new tyranny.

I've got to hand it to brietbart for not throwing gamers under the bus. I wish the older generations would take a serious eye to the younger guys coming up before them. I know most of you think Videogames are a waste of time, but its part of the culture war now. Do you want Video games to continue to be Entertainment? or become a bastion of liberal propaganda? If you lose this one. It's lost forever. |

A positive impression on one of these youtuber's channels is worth far more than the approval of some starving, pretentious hipster at a site like Polygon. |
