He, like Trump, is such a petulant man-child. 

I'm sure there's stuff to do outside of the parks, but I don't want to spend any money in shithole Republican states south of the Mason-Dixon line.

Except they’re not though.  For Gamergate to have won it would have needed to supplant itself as both a valid political movement and representative of the majority of gamers (it didn’t) and it would have needed to force change among game journalism, you know the thing it claimed it wanted to do (it also did not do…

That’s assuming he had the ability to move. It’s kind of hard to be mobile these days. Judging by snippets given from people who knew the guy, he didn’t exactly strike me as the kind of person who was stable enough to undertake that sort of action effectively.

I don’t think media outlets will cut staff over Twitter verification. They will just deal with the potential troll accounts or leave the service altogether.

I mean the FBI interview released today has him saying some pretty deep conspiracy far right wing stuff so I don’t think there’s much room for debate on that now. As for his seeming mishmash of past political leanings, the drift of someone from left to post-left to far-right happens more often than you might think.…

And to be fair, no group is a monolith. I’m sure there are gay black men and women who think Q is a real thing. I’m sure there are people who think All Cops Are Bastards but also the Democrats have control of a Jewish space laser. We mix and match our good shit and our dumb shit all the time.

There’s some weirdness around the guy. He had BLM stickers in his window and a pride flag in his backyard. And his house and van have a lot of anti-capitalist paraphernalia. It sounds like he’s generally pretty anti-authority regardless of who the “authority” is. Which unfortunately sometimes lends itself to…

I’ve seen you say that a bunch of times in the comments but you’re gonna have to outline just what their aims were to have “won” anything. What was their stated goal? Was it to hold video game journalists accountable, as they claimed initially? Because if so, they didn’t win. You can’t “win” a situation you weren’t…

Thats why i sort by newest

Exactly. GamerGate didn’t “lose” they just put on their “MAGA” hats.

In the 1930s and early 40s, specifically.

Who the fuck said we were owed twitter? We’re annoyed because he’s going to do some really repugnant shit with his new shiny plaything that he tried backing out of several times and the fact is that if he didn’t he would’ve had to pay out the nose anyway. He’s a goddamn manchild who has fleeced you fuckers into…

This is no surprise. And the biggest reason you don’t really see self-identified Gamergaters any more is that that was back when people thought they had to hide being Nazis or hating women, Jews and Black people, etc. Then Trump happened and they were able to proudly join White Supremacist groups or whatever hate they…

And once again it’s only an issue or “needs to be studied” when it affects white people.

Because then they have to admit they screwed up at some point, instead of being able to think that they’ve been in the right, and society has wronged them this whole time.

then you probably know that these culture warriors lost the battle

lol This racist is the type of person The Root is making common cause with. A person who actually believes that Black people are the victimizers and not the victims when it comes to bigotry in the USA. Kyrie and Kanye shouldn’t be bigots but this is the type of bigoted bullshit the elites are trying to make Black…

If a white player tweeted out the things he did I can promise you they would be fined and suspended.
