This is great because it means we can move on to the journalism issues. Anti-GG is effectively withdrawing from the battle, which lets us get back to business. All the people who said "You need a new hashtag blah blah blah" were so fucking wrong. GG simply had to wait for the Anti-GG folks to take their ball and go home.

Yep that right there. What's funny, and I was going to post this earlier. Is they've launched like 8 different hastags they've all failed. Their most successful was stopgamergate2014 and all it did was give gamergate a positive boost.

These are of course exactly the same people, literally the people that the anti-gg crowd clustered around saying "we want a dialog" and when offered one, by someone who's neutral they're running away.

Something I found funny, the anti-gg's are now refusing to go on david pakman's show when they realized he isn't pulling any softball questions with anyone. Facts are delicious.

Was JUST reading this. It's hilarious to see them finally show their true colors. They aren't interested in talking to anyone who isn't going to just let them have a platform to spew their hate and filth. Anti-GG only has false, emotionally-charged rhetoric. That isn't a stance that holds up to any level of scrutiny.

Do you have a single fact to back that up?

No it hasn't devolved into FWP's, that's one of the tactics that sjw's are trying to pull. People are still going after the sites, in fact vox(I think) ran a hit piece today decrying that we're going after their advertisers. If anything that shows they're running scared, since gawker is the "big noise machine" in the whole realm of shitty-non-journalism clickbait.

That's part of the problem. How many Gamergaters refuse to admit there's been any kind of idiocy or wrong-doing on the part of gamergate?

Change the damn name already.

Really? So where's the proof. In fact I can travel to any of the chans where people are talking about this and at any point someone tries to even bring up some shit about it, they're shouted down and the thread is shitted into oblivion.

Going by your logic, the entire anti-GG movement is tainted by the actions of the reporters calling for bullying, and wanting to "play pinata with gamers corpse."

That's disappointing.
Both sides need to stop doing this. Throw this idiot out. Throw Adam Baldwin, Milo, Christine Hoff Sommers, and all the feminism-haters out. Throw anyone that's either never discussed video games or only discussed from the exact agenda they're taking on Gamergate out. Too many only discussing this thing because they care about something other than games, on both sides.

Except both sides aren't doing it. Baldwin hasn't been doing anything except making comments on his own. Milo is reporting on events that are newsworthy. Sommers is making statements based on her experience as a feminist in the traditional sense, not a 3rd wave authoritarian feminist.

And yet the anti-side is the one that keeps bringing up the studies, making it about various individuals who have no actual claim on the issue and so on. What's pathetic is that this is a play right out of the old marxist playbook, that being "relegating those you find against your ideology to 'mentally unsound.'" Yeah, people have seen this shit before.

Oh and then there these assholes. That's an editor of Mother Jones.

Have to say it makes me glad that they're on the anti-GG side. I'm glad they have Brianna Wu as well. Interesting article on her background and views.

More on Brianna Wu

I'm just waiting for Jack Thompson to rear his ugly disbarred head.

Some chick dev slept with a dude reviewer ... (gee, how ever did they meet?)

Screams of impropriety ensue from dozens of uninvolved sources.

Feminists and anti-feminists latch on for lack of anything better to do.

Click bait ensues.
