mid 2000s SJWs show up anon: lol who loving cares its video games SJWs: NO THIS poo poo IS LEGIT AND VERY SERIOUS BUSINESS gaming journalism: well maybe if we piggyback off of this, we will be considered real journalists. THEY ARE RIGHT, BOW TO YOUR SJW OVERLORDS, VIDEO GAMES ARE EXTREMELY IMPORTANT AND ALSO ART, THEY ARE SERIOUS. 2014, years and billions of dollars as well as shitloads of market penetration and increase in relevance, globally, along with the gaming press, later anon: well the relationships between gaming journalists, indie devs and SJWs seem rather incestuous, as well as lacking any sort of disclosure that actual journalism would require SJWs: l-lol who cares r-right? they are merely video games, you virgin neckbeard sexist rapist gaming journalism: w-what x-xhe said. video games do not matter, they are just a childish hobby! we are not real journalists, we are just hobbyist bloggers who are beholden to no standards whatsoever! get over it, virgin!

So why are people something out and doing 9/11 Truther-style exposés on women who make comments on the game industry, in between the threats of rape or violence? It's like, I can understand the anonymous death threats from 12 year olds on 4chan, but the amount of effort people are putting to fight that Anita lady's arguments seems like something you can't even expect someone to grow out of. Actual mental illness. Maybe we should make a game about it

They'll super-analyze their online behavior, find some weird minor inconsistency, and declare it as proof that the whole thing is faked and these women aren't actually effected by harassment.

Klyith posted:A stupid counterargument. They most certainly did not in the case of blacks in the south. It was an organized system where the people in power were spending a lot of effort to keep blacks "in their place". When Dred Scott sued for freedom he was told his desires were a bunch of trivial bullshit. Slavery existed in the United States for nearly a century despite the existence of people who railed against it. Then there was another near-century of legal discrimination. A lot of people in the north during the civil war didn't have any special affinity for the rights of black people either. Multiple white mobs in the north murdered the black people living among them out of resentment.

A head reviewer for polygon just cancelled plans they had with their family, left the city they are living in and made sure to inform their family to never reveal their locations online just incase. All due to threats made to other people who aren't directly connected to them. I wouldn't believe this poo poo about right wing rapture is coming doomsday preppers but apparently this is something SJWs actually do.

The internet abstracts from real-life circumstances, without which meaningful discussion is impossible. Meaningful discussion is always predicated on what your audience already knows.
