so, yes, kick the can down the road, and deal with the ethics issues later, right now we've got idiots to crucify and groups to misrepresent.

even here, when I word my arguments well and in over a 140 characters, I don't mean intelligent resistance most of the time. The vast majority of replies are "Fuck you Fuck off" regardless of how cordial I am.

But mirrors DO work 1:1. Yours is too distorted for the metaphor.

Okay, so, fair enough, literally all proof on the internet is fakeable.

Why would I post their personal info in an attempt to prove it...? Isn't that counter productive?

Why? No one's(That I can speak for) sanctioning the threats on these women. But here you're sanctioning the threats on these people as insignificant because of their chosen view point on an issue. Are you serious?

All people who've been Doxxed for supporting Gamergate. We'll never see an article about them.

I'm starting to feel incredelous about all of this. Like we're going to get an article a year or two down the line that all of these threats were faked.

Golly, I must've missed your condemnation of the threats that have been leveled against women inside gamergate. Put it right here ——————->

Thread Hijack: What about left handed people? Why not make everything centered around them?

You're on a slipper slope here as giving a shit about TV shows, movies, music, video games, or sports also go hand-in-hand with being an immature weirdo. Everybody is nerdy about something. It's just most of us have significant others, or kids, or jobs, or friends, or anything else that puts things in perspective so…

I don't even know what to think anymore when it comes to Gamergate. I don't condone any of the personal threats but I think Anita and her ilk are stretching when it comes to being upset and calling games sexist. IMO she is the modern day Jack Thompson, who got skewered by the gaming community as a whole back in the…

Part of the problem is that the vile, hate spewing idiots are mixed in with people with a valid point. The gaming press is too comfy with the people who make the games, and this is manifest in, at times, deceptive practices; some of the outrage over the entire thing was that it was also revealed that the journalists…

Nathan Grayson did write about Depression Quest in RockPaperShotgun. Entire line of thought (100,000 words up there) post-empted.

Trolls aside, (and these people should be investigated and prosecuted for any criminal threats by law enforcement), I appreciate the detail but its hard to take Gawker media as a legitimate source on this. They frankly have ad revenue at stake and there is already a coordinate effort at a number of the blogs to push…

Don't lump all people that play video games in with the kind of vitrol coming out of "gamergate."

"Tomorrow's Tipper Gore will make an inexplicably popular YouTube video." Umm, it's the Kotaku crowd saying games are overtly violent and sexist, the same things Tipper Gore said about rock music. You guys ARE Tipper Gore.

I like how everyone who says anything that disagrees with the authors thesis is automatically branded as a "troll" or "trolling".

He missed a court date. Why is there a SWAT team there and all that other shit. Shouldn't a single squad car with two cops be able to show up and arrest him?

They should really be used to losing three hours wherever they play.
