I know this will likely wallow in the grays among other unpopular opinions, but I don't think I've ever seen such a fluffy and pointless hate-fest in a Jezebel post + comments section, like ever. I didn't even like the videos when I first saw them, but then I promptly forgot about them and all was right in the world.…

For all I know you are a troll or something because this entire comment's section seems like one big pile of harmonious snark, but I'm totally with you. It's not like I even liked these videos, but I can't muster even a smidgen of caring one way or the other. I also find it really hard to take any of the article…

I'm not watching the video. I get it. I watched the Xmas Jammies one. It's cute. They seem like they are having fun doing what they are interested in/passionate about - showbiz! I can't fault them for that just like I don't fault all my amateur photographer friends on Facebook. They are having fun. People like…

There is no such thing as a good white rap parody video.

Hey Jezebel: f*ck you and your snarking shit. Why don't you just not report on meme's or viral videos you don't like instead of putting people down?

in a way I believe dogs exhibit more humanity than most Homo sapiens

What possible dissent can there be to, "Don't stalk women and tell them you want to gut them"?

As a Chinese person, I'm glad you're learning from the great minds that run my government.

One of the issues I have with Kotaku's moderation is that they mod dissenters who are rude or attack others, but all those who agree and call dissenters bigots (which is a personal attack) are fine. As a matter of fact, half the articles just directly and baselessly call large groups of people bigots. It's just very…

Fuck off Luke, we as gamers have a right to call out bullshit like Zoe Quinn and Anita Sarkeesian and how corrupt it is, and how corrupt your journalism is.

theres nothing wrong with the word gamer theres something wrong with journalists using "gamers" in place of what should be named as "internet trolls" so they don't tarnish the name and make it seem like they are calling out all gamers because people will definitely take it the wrong way

Ooh! I have a thing to say:

Why should we defend Zoe? Forgetting the fact that she slept with NG (as he admitted), what about the fact that she made up harassment from Wizardchan to play at being a victim, thus getting more coverage of her game based on her word alone (as The Escapist admitted) and causing a bunch of…

and this is why no one from the opposition will ever be heard as more than a raving lunatic. No one cares about the whole Jerry Springer aspect of this. It's about the perceived improper dev/press relationships and ultimately how they affect us as readers and consumers.

*Let's go of caps lock key* Aw damnit.

In all seriousness though, maybe all sides should really just back off. I never really cared for the Social Justice in gaming thing that seems to have become really popular. Ignored the first few articles... ignored the ones that followed... but then sooner or later I clicked on…

It's not really a discussion then, is it? More of a circle jerk.

This is the inevitable result when you mix politics with anything. Try and go to the D&D players, on their news outlets and their hobby pages and tell them that they are

inherently racist
inherently sexist
inherently flawed
that ethnic groups are under represented
that they are sexualizing women with their hobby.

do you…

You do know of the Streisand Effect, yes? If it wasn't for the constant censorship of what people consider to be a big deal, it wouldn't have blown up this badly. All the constant censorship does is make matters worse by upsetting people further. This isn't about women in games, or women in games development (though…

No not a surprise. What is a surprise is that it was censorship that upset everyone to begin with and here you are being nakedly hostile in the entire article to gamers and then in the comments section as well. You smear gamers all through your article and then say you will stifle conversation in the comments…

I'm so, so, so confused as to the seeming ignorance of the gaming media here. Maybe it's because my main interest is politics that I have a certain detached view of this.

Where's the surprise in you censoring things you don't like? Pretty sure that's the true source of the butthurt here, not some fabricated misogyny driven neckbeard agenda. But, enjoy your bubble, whining about other people in other bubbles you are judging for judging you. Congrats, king hypocrite.
