On their very first date she told the boyfriend that if he cheated on her then she would not have consented to the sex therefore he would be raping her

She then proceeds to literally gently caress other guys without protection within hours of loving her boyfriend while telling him not to wear protection because she hadn't been with anyone else

I think there's a pretty loving big line between actual rape and this abstract, retroactive removal of consent that we're talking about.

Still an absolutely lovely thing to do.

loving someone without their consent is not cool. loving someone under false premises is also a violation of consent. loving someone while knowingly withholding information that would have otherwise have made them revoke consent to gently caress you is also, and still, violating consent.

zoe quinn explained to her boyfriend that if you cheated on zoe quinn, she would never consent to have sex with him.

therefore if you cheat on zoe, and don't tell her (read: lied to her), and then proceed to have sex with her, you are raping her.

zoe quinn browbeat her boyfriend into agreeing with this academic definition of consent and he ended up convinced by her argument (and, to be honest, it's a pretty solid argument and holds up academically. it's unenforceable legally though, you'd impound half the country for rape if you tried to legislate that definition)

zoe quinn then proceeded to gently caress other men while in a committed monogamous relationship and not tell her boyfriend. she then proceeded to gently caress her boyfriend in between loving other men. I'm sure you can see the problem here given the above premises

on top of that, to hide her infidelity, zoe hosed her boyfriend without condoms specifically to hide the fact that she was loving other men (because if she'd asked her boyfriend to use condoms then it would have arisen suspicion from him)



I like how in that picture she still sees herself as some bastion of virtue; that if she cheats on someone anyone can instead of her realizing she just might not be that good of a person.

need more detail here - how is she a rapist?

According to her definition she's a rapist. According to the legal definition she isn't. So really she's not a rapist but she's a hypocrite and also a really bad person that put her SO at risk of catching STDs.

Just qualify the story to "Game Dev is a self-described rapist." That'd be news.

And you don't have to agree with a moral crusade to find hypocrisy funny. The republicans are wrong on gay rights. But it's still fun to point and laugh when one of the Defenders of Marriage gets caught in another gay affair.

Yep. And that's playing out here, with SJWs taking the role of Fox News Commentator. "Why are these misogynists so intent on scandalizing a woman's private sex life. And who's to say that the alleged 'victim' is telling the truth. Maybe they're lying. After all, these abuse allegations take on a very negative and critical tone."

Honestly, I think Zoe's side will take it. In the long run, no one remembers comment threads.

So, all the games journalists have to do is report the story as "misogynistic trolls abuse women." It doesn't even matter how much abuse there is in proportion to legit criticism. The collective memory will depend on whatever 3 or 4 tweets reporters decide to quote.

yeah, but they're not handling it that smartly

I mean the smart thing to do would have been to just fire the journalist, who is nobody i've ever loving heard of, and be done with it. but for some reason they decided that dragging the integrity of their whole site into it was a good idea and now absolutely everything that happens makes them look worse

quote:

According to the statement, Miss A then realised he was trying to have unprotected sex with her. She told police that she had tried a number of times to reach for a condom but Assange had stopped her by holding her arms and pinning her legs. The statement records Miss A describing how Assange then released her arms and agreed to use a condom, but she told the police that at some stage Assange had "done something" with the condom that resulted in it becoming ripped, and ejaculated without withdrawing.

Nope, she willingly consented to do sex with him if he wore a condom, which he did and tragically it failed, now he's condemned as a sex criminal.

Zoe Quinn is one of many women targeted by the Gamergate harassment campaign.

Support a feminist today!


I decided to do an experiment this morning upon hearing that the SJW conspiracy was totally on the forums. Figuring that since the scandal had advanced and more people were informed, I created a thread in the Game Subforum Imp about it called Quinnspiracy: Zoe Quinn and the Main Stream Media Scandal. Got a few replies and I figured "everything's fine, now Imp has it's own thread about it, people were clearly exaggerating about it, all good."

So upon logging back in, the thread is gone. It's not even moved gone, or gas gone, it's simply gone. It's like it never existed... :tinfoil:
