I encourage children who are bullied to kill themselves. In fact, I get off to it. Pedophilia-snuff films are the best. More abused children need to kill themselves.

The kind of birthday present that you pretend to like out of politeness then bitch about afterwards.

The battles (and I don’t use that word lightly; in some ways perhaps ‘war’ is more appropriate) to make safe spaces for videogame cultures are long and they are resisted tempestuously, but through the pain and suffering of people who have their friendships, their personal lives, and their professions on the line, things continue to improve. The result has been a palpable progressive shift.
zoe quinn is the rosa parks of our age

quote:

On some level, the grim individuals who are self-centred and myopic enough to be upset at the prospect of having their medium taken away from them are absolutely right. They have astutely, and correctly identified what is going on here. Their toys are being taken away, and their treehouses are being boarded up. Videogames now live in the world and there is no going back.

I am convinced that this marks the end. We are finished here. From now on, there are no more gamers—only players.

I could tell you stories about the voices we’ve lost, the women we’ve scarred, the people we’ve left behind. I want to, but I’m not sure you’d get it. I tweeted earlier today, We should have a war memorial for all of the women we have lost to this. We should lay flowers and grieve and see our reflections in stone. And I meant it.

The truth about Zoe Quinn is that every woman in the industry is one unhinged ex-partner away from being Zoe Quinn, and if that doesn’t scare you, there’s no hope for us at all.

Pretty sure if you don't lie to and gaslight the gently caress out of your partner while (by your own judgement) raping them you won't have too much to worry about on that front

The problem isn't that women have to leave their house due to death threats it is that if they choose to they get all kinds of attention and news articles decrying the oppression they face.

Men on the other hand would be made fun of and called a pussy. The best possible outcome they could expect would be getting ignored. Because of this most men have long since learned to ignore death threats and "man up" as the saying goes.

So it isn't that all women are weak just that the weak ones get attention and the strong get ignored. This creates a narrative that women are overly emotional and attention seeking.

Haha his apology rules:

He's a mid 20s Youtube personality whose content is video game oriented, not a UN Ambassador, what do you expect of him? What kind of apology would've been acceptable to you?

quote:

"When I said I guess you love the IDF bombing schools I was trying to make a point, sorry you didn't understand that" ~ an apology.

A thing he didn't say, but building up a straw man to argue against is a popular tactic among people who don't actually have any real argument to make.

quote:

Also like I said, she just randomly happened to get dudes saying 'lol go get bombed' right after Jon posted a big crybaby 'wow you hurt me' response to her when his fans were already in a foaming rage about the evil censors online or whatever.

Just like Zoe Quinn and Anita Sarkeesian, how strange. It's almost like the internet is full of poo poo stirrers that anyone can use as an excuse for whatever dumb agenda they want to push.

quote:

Also the main fight came when he called a dude who said 'hey could you not say retarded so much' a retard, I really don't think anyone is legitimately angry he called playstation a retard.

Could be, except the whole part where him calling a gaming service retarded being the start of it is what actually happened. Also, I'm still waiting for you to show me where he told a Palestinian to get bombed. Or was that another straw man?

To be honest I'd be really curious to know how this situation would have played out if Quinn had been a dude accused by a jilted ex-girlfriend of being abusive/sleeping with a bunch of lady journalists


Gawker wrote like 82 Max Tempkin articles so it'd be interesting to see how they handled a similar situation only with a bunch of chatlogs and corroboration surrounding it instead of literally nothing
