Good lord so that means it's even mote mysgonistic than the Wiki article portrayed? These people are truly sick.

It's worth noting that the wikipedia article on gamergate is not the best place for information on gamergate. Just recently ten feminists and other people trying to edit the article to show the flaws in the "movement" were banned from editing it and any other gender related articles on Wiki. Some pro gamergate people…
Yeah that is just bizarre. I will never understand why men feel so persecuted when even chainging the status quo would only affect them minimally. It's so gross.
Wow that is scary.
That's one of the scarier things - he's getting egged on by the low-hangers and guys like this sometimes feed on that. He's clearly unhinged and needs help or at least to be off the streets. The last thing he needs is idiots encouraging the behavior. These same idiots will undoubtedly fade back into anonymity if/when…
By "ethics in journalism" they mean "don't you dare say anything bad about our psycho misogynist stalker fanbase". It also means "don't you dare suggest that women or gays or black people should be represented in games more than they are now", and it also means "don't you dare suggest that women or gays or black…
That's the short of it. Gamergate is also pretty tightly tied in to Men's Right Activism and other groups for misogynists. Particularly STEM misogynists who feel that something is being taken away from them by increasing women's participation in STEM fields.
Jesus christ. Glad he never went through with it. Nick is the worst.
He was a bitch ass bitch ass, and if I saw him today I would laugh in his face. Ain't nobody scared of yew, fuckboi.
Well this is fucking terrifying. But just another example of being a woman on the Internet I guess.
Glad you got out of there safely! Also, I know exactly what you mean about survival instincts taking a back seat to bitchiness. What doesn't kill you leaves more time for unfettered snark.
If the dude wasn't so batshit insane terrifying this would be hilarious. Especially the part where he's whining that he "wasn't even drunk, just street racing". Like really dude, you're trying to street race in your mom's crappy Prius and when you crash it it's somehow a woman's fault?
His mom's Prius...
Right on jlfforalways. I looked at that video on LiveLeak of him and his friend beating and threatening the other guy and I thought: "Wow, they are doing this over TOYS. Grown men are fighting over TOYS. WOW. WOW. JUST WOW. "
When I was 17 my then-boyfriend sent me a bunch of text messages telling me he was going to stab me and that he had a knife and was waiting on the corner outside my house (I could see him from my window. I waved. I do not have much common sense and my sense of survival ranks much lower than my love of being an…
See now. This is why all the posturing in the world about better journalism standards is a huge pile of steaming bullshit.
I'm aware this is focusing on NOT the point of the article, but... Street racing in a Prius? Really?
I have a feeling this is a conscious decision to be a crazy person, not coming back from that life choice.
If you want more female driven games become designers and make them they say. Be a female game developer and they'll spend their time threatening to kill you.
Oh I've been watching this unfold on Twitter for a while. He has been aided and abetted by the lower end of the GamerGate dickheads, although to be fair quite a few have called him out too.
It won't help. He is not trolling as some allege. He is totally and completely unhinged. Brianna Wu needs police protection or…
