Quinn is a doxxer who harrased people on the net in the Something Awful helldump sub-forum.

knowing exactly how to keep doxer's entertained, she played the victim a lot until money came rolling in

now she gave a speech about cyber bullying on the UN, a no one in the UN cares about the hypocrisy because it forward the political/commercial agenda for destruction of anonymity online

Some guy got his dick sucked to give a game a good review.

People found out about it and called him out.

Then a lot gaming journos came to defend him.

Anita's army tried to paint them as fat white nerds this resulted in the #notyourshield twitter hashtag.

poo people, women, and gays were using it to show they support gamergate.

I don't know what they even accomplished.

It acted as a spring board for a couple of histrionics to get patreon money.

>Zoe Quinn
>Brianna Wu

Anita got an ever bigger following.

/pol/ had some #shekelshoah threads where they screencapping ads on Gawker next to pro pedo articles and other shit.

They sent this to the advertisers and they were losing cash.

After Watergate it became a really annoying gimmick in american media to affix "gate" to something to indicate a political scandal, ie "Bridgegate", "Emailgate", etc.

So yes, the autistic retards who were a part of this shitstorm legitimately thought that this was some sort of major scandal and unironically compared some dumb bullshit over a thirsty hipster who made a shitty indie game to Richard Nixon's involvement the Watergate burglary.

Autistic manbabies versus SJWs in the clickbait fagfest of the century. Anywhere that discusses it has an agenda of some sort, so you can't trust any article you see about it, but it basically boils down to whether or not a rabid hate campaign against Zoe Quinn is in any related to a reasonable campaign about the current vidya review climate, which is universally regarded as being as crooked as a barrel of snakes.

Everyone knew that shit was crooked as fuck but nobody any hard evidence.

Zoe Quinn got the brunt of it because she was the only shred of evidence people found, then when the shilling started they shifted focus.

Tell me, how many male journalists had people camping outside their homes threatening to rape and murder them? How many male journalists had all their personal details posted online with the express intention of directing further harassment and death threats towards them? How many male journalists had to cancel public appearances after /v/aggots threatened to publicly assassinate them?

SJWs are self-righteous cancer, but you are damaging your own argument, and insulting the readers of your infographic, by demonising the SJW side of things and refusing to provide their side of the story.

I think they are a good thing. SJWs are bad, they deserved a little pushback. People needed to know that it was okay to disagree with SJWs still without losing your job or something. It was wrong for moot to ban them the way he did, I think he owes an apology.

That said, I don't agree with all the cancer aspects. It went on too long and doesn't need to exist anymore. But it's obvious that some SJW anons latched on went it exagerate how bad they are.

I think the main thing it accomplished is that now there's websites who will write the "4chan response" to SJW articles. Some people think this is "clickbait for the other side", but I think it is a good thing. If a new Anita Sarkeesian comes along, I would rather have kikebart prove her wrong through journalism than go through what happened then again.

Actually, Zoe Quinn got exactly what was coming to her. Not in "dumb bitch deserved it way", but that it couldn't have been anyone else but her. Since she attacked smaller imageboards before "GG" happened, when her scandals blew up it blew up in a huge way on 4chan. She was on 4chan shitlist in a way most SJWs were not because she attacked chans before. If it was someone else it would've fizzled out sooner.

How? Most people "hate" GG on 4chan now so it would be stupid to demonize SJW without context. The fact that even on 4chan you have to start your sentences with "Gamergate is cancer, but..." says a lot, while no SJW ever says they can see the other point of view.

My main point was that she was on 4chan's shitlist before then. If it was another SJW, it would've blown over. So "Harassed because she's a woman/Harassed because she's a SJW" is bullshit, it's because she already lied about imageboards before that people noticed.

This was hilarious. It was a sinking ship and their credibility was in complete tatters and the way they were resorting to pretending to be third parties to act like if people were still on GG's side or agreed with their points was great.

I actually did agree with GG was but /v/ has always been permabutthurt about women, ugly ones at that, and Zoe was both. Funny that this whole thing was set off by an ex boyfriend's blog post, because an ex lover would totally be a reliable and fair source of information about a person. Oh and
>Ignoring them doesn't make them go away!
I'm sure all that attention sure did a good job showing them the error of their ways, and totally didn't galvanize them further.

They had their fun, and they put all their eggs in a single basket. They should have put their HQ somewhere else long ago. Moot owes them shit, it was his site he could have done whatever he wants. GG should have been grateful he even tolerated them that long, it's their own fault they were too stupid to find a proper platform.

I still can't believe people in Goobergate think this guy is worth shit. He is an opportunist who was pissing on videogames right up until he heard about this bowel movement.

OP, gamergate is a bunch of faggots getting upset at women for criticizing their videogames. The entire ragepost by Zoe Quinn's boyfriend has been debunked, the boyfriend even admitted to making up stuff. Hell, a lot of people in Goobergate left after seeing Colbert make fun of them for being the giant reactionary hate mob they are.

There is no ethics, there is only constant shitposting on the internet and hatred directed to a couple women with dyed hair. It's a complete waste of time.
