Well, they managed to get a few lumps on old Captain Cook, at least.

Patricia, when was the last time you wrote anything of substance?

Serious question, Kirk: are all Muslims terrorists? Would you have Islam eliminated because there is a jihadist strain in the religion?

tenant-landlord, rather

What rhetorical points have I made past "I find Kotaku's behavior to be reprehensible?".

I'm not one of those "PLEASE REVIEW OBJECTIVELY" clowns. I acknowledge that criticism is subjective. That being said, there's a difference between a subjective review and a BLATANT conflict of interest.

I joined the fray when I

And this is the precise reason an impasse exists. No one wants to engage in discussion. It's an echo-chamber.

I understand. But I don't exist in an ideological vacuum where I can't assess and understand opposing viewpoints. What I choose to do after the fact reflects that decision.

I fully respect and appreciate your reasons for doing so!

That's fine! That's how it's supposed to work! Connect or disconnect with a company based on your own values. That's being an educated consumer.

The criticism by Zoe, which she later deleted, went along the lines of "you're just sitting there while I get harassed, get up off your ass"

I merely pointed out that those comments were ableist and that she should check her privilege, and good lord did I get twenty-something angry white knights in my mentions.

You realize that I'm a developer, right? And that I've got a game that's already grossed 20k Canadian while still only being in development. Do I have another job apart from game development?

Intel, UAT, and another advertisers I can't pull off the top of my head left Gamasutra
Mercedes may or may not have pulled from Gawker, BMW definitely has.
Scottrade, Unilever, and Kraft have all pulled from Polygon.

They've pulled out because people who purchase those products have contacted them, saying that those

You realize that you've literally pulled the "you talk white" card? That you're indirectly accusing me of playing the Uncle Tom, which primarily white journalists have done to me personally as well. We're a minority, but we're not a token minority hip tech bloggers can use to proxy their own oppression, so suddenly

That's half the problem with gamergate reportage. We're all white men, and then when we're not white, we get mis-identified anyway.

You don't even know the difference between Meztizo and Mestico, do you? Google the difference, son. The "c" in there means quite a bit.

In that spirit, I rest my case.

Is a statement of fact a brag? For example: is saying "Frederick the Great commanded the Prussian forces at the Battle of Hohenfriedberg" a brag?

You might want to watch that second person "you" when speaking about the straight-white male demographic. I'm a minority. A bisexual Mestiço, particularly. #NotYourShield

Take just a moment to not mis-identify those you're arguing with, and perhaps people will... not take you for a moron!

You're asking a number of questions here, and none with any real lucidity. Care to rephrase?
