I wouldn’t blame her if she can’t think straight anymore, but believing everything is about you and an attack is the kind of thing that needs to be treated as a result of what happened. For everyone else who only eats, sleeps and breathes this stuff, they’re just being religiously devout and seeing Jesus in their…
It’s weird to see her refer to it as suffering when that month has been one of the most pivotal and profiting month of her career. It’s because of this she got her cushy patreon stipend and her memoir optioned off film rights before it was even finished or published.
This is truly bizarre. I have now watched this video twice, and it seems as if Quinn is injecting herself into something that really has nothing to do with her.
Just gonna throw this out there: Perhaps the person we should be accusing of triggering Zoe Quinn here is the one who sent her two out of context screenshots.
Or maybe mention what gamergate was originally about before it got hijacked by Zoe Quinn and her feminist brigade. Credibility of game reviews/journalism. She may have been the target of a lot of hateby a select group, but it’s only because she was one of the perpetrators. Not because she's a girl gamer.
People leap to victimize themselves at any opportunity to get some lime light.
I hate the ‘looking to be offended’ thing...but holy shit this is a text book case. The only way to make it look bad is to remove the context and spacing between two separate jokes and mash them together while willfully ignoring the obvious pun and placing undo import over what amounts to an internet shitstorm that,…
The cheating was what caught people’s eye. She did way worse shit than that, like ruin companies and abuse people severely.
[...]and you wind up with the inference by some[...]
This whole thing is frankly a bunch of kids who aren’t informed enough about actual recent American history but who are overly informed about the very recent and obscure history of GamerGate.
If you look at the video you’ll see they conveniently left out the lines that are right after the “Shufflegate” part that prove the dialog was a direct reference to Watergate. Seems more like manufactured controversy.
Uhhhh, nixon got impeached. That’s pretty much ruining his career.
I guess people forget that tacking -gate on the end of a scandal is a reference back to watergate?
My first thought was Watergate scandal. Something way more influential than Zoe Quinn. The fact Nintendo had to point this out is sort of sad. Also it’s a little scary. If people forget, then history might repeat itself..
