My problem with the movement is that GamerGaters think they are some crowdsourced investigative force for good that can root out immoral and unethical behavior and connections in the gaming press, yet can't seem to be bothered to do the same amount of work to weed out the trolls they say are such a minority in their

One of these posts is not like the other... One of these posts is about death threats. It wasn't even directed towards him, it was directed towards his wife. So I'm going to assume that was

"Just last night I deleted a youtube comment from a user who posted my home address and said he'd kill my wife and leave me to

Also, does he ever come out and say that it was an anti-gamergate person who sent him a death threat? Can you link me where that's claimed, because it would seem from the turn of events that maybe he got threatened by a gamergater since he seems to be for more integrity in gaming journalism, but also for equality in

"Columbia sure looked like a great utopia before the vox came." Point, Set, and Match.

They're clarifying that it's the GamerGate Trolls aren't they? That's them trying to identify a subgroup within the larger context. If GamerGaters don't want include people who take actions like this, then they themselves should come up with terminology to describe themselve, and should also condemn them. Universally.

You clearly don't understand Feminism. The reason they can blame the "patriarchy" and also be for equality for all is because it is inherently an unequal distribution of power and creates societal norms for both males and females. I'm a male, I'm against patriarchial systems as opposed to meritocracies. I'd rather the

You didn't even read any of those articles did you? They were talking about people who consider themselves "real gamers" or "traditional gamers" in the face of an expanding number of people who are just "gamers".

Actually, the GamerGate crowd probably did.

But the problem is the group isn't condemning their actions. They come here and they say that it's unfair for the group to get judged by the vocal actions of some of their members, and how the feminists are being unfair, and crying wolf , or really just getting what they deserve. Pro-GamerGate people aren't condemning

The internet is actually the way that people communicate now, so you can't just dismiss all communication done through the internet like that. An email, from a student, was sent to the administration of UofU, that is a legitimate form of communication and contact. Also, this "boys will be boys" attitude is bullshit.

You probably aren't aware of this, but if the threats are real, then you're not really crying wolf. Unless you're trying to say that people are actually crying wolf over fake threats, because in the same sentence talk about them actually happening. Nobody would have to worry about people thinking they were crying wolf

All social media outlets could be considered "trivial," though I will say I'm a pretty tech savvy guy who uses social media, and I completely missed the twitter boat. So I can see where you are coming from. Sorry if I'm used to a lot of the negative posts on topics like this really just being attempts at attacking

You realize she had enough space to type what you put in quotes, but instead took a more informational tone. I guess that was probably part of her plan all along, to not have to use the tone you're trying to apply to her statement. She must have known you'd do it for her, and then she'd get to have her cake and eat it

Here's the deal, not every person on the planet will get a death threat, so it's possible to find famous people who didn't. Or possibly, find famous people who don't talk about getting death threats... But on the other hand this happens:

If no one cared enough to talk about it, how did you know it happened?

You're aware of swatting right? You admit that you believe there are gamers out there stupid enough to do this for their own entertainment, let alone because they really feel like she is attacking them. There's empirical evidence of gamers doing this sort of activity. Yet apparently since you disagree with her on some

It's pretty simple: Black men may have it worse off than white women, but black women have it even worse off than black men. That's why gender equality matters. If you want to think you stand for equality or social justice, but you don't think someone has a right to stand up for their gender, than you've got some

I'm not the exact opposite of this, but my wife is kick-ass at budgeting and personal finance, and way more organized than I am. She also worries a lot more about our finances because she went through a rough financial time when she was younger. We discuss our plans for the future and trips we want to go on, or what

Actually you should always unbutton your jacket completely when sitting. Also you shouldn't have to unbutton your bottom button, because you should never button it in the first place.

You do realize that a same sex relationship would have two men or two women right? Are you just taking exception to the picture used for the article? Do you really expect them to include pictures of every possible relationship type? I only see two people in this picture, what about polyamorous relationships?

Or are you
