It should be noted that the year or so has contained a shitload of actual corruption in games media that 0 online nerds seemed to care about.

Lets not forget the fact that a bunch of Goons who are one of the most watched gaming channels on YouTube basically came out and said "As long as you agree to a extensively predatory and assrapingly harsh profit sharing contract we will gladly publicize and promote your game on our channel." which was based on the idea that since Indie games desperately need media attention they would be willing to sacrifice a huge chunk of their profit just to be featured in a couple videos with 500k views.
yeah I used to like the yogscast but they have done some supremely lovely things lately that makes me kinda hate their guts as people

like even discounting the yogscast adventures shenanigans, this poo poo right here is some of the dirtiest stuff because they directly profit off of other websites and channels's promotion of the game

game journalism has been a joke from its inception up until now with the exception of very few people that almost no one watches and now people realize it but they're only trying to connect it to people with weird hair or who post videos about women in video games

Get resources to those who need them. Do you have disposable income? Donate it to people or groups you know over large organizations you don’t have connections to. If you don’t know how to, ask. Send them a message, ask them if they feel comfortable getting money from you and, if so, the best way to get it to them. Don’t have money? You might know people who do and should promote other’s stuff in their presence, or at least, be sharing stuff constantly so they have a good chance of becoming interested. Email publications and companies to tell them it’s important to you that they support certain people or groups. Sending heartfelt petitions to people and organizations who have money does work, especially en masse. Money also isn’t the only resource; do you have connections for affordable housing, food, social services? Or maybe you even have connections to people with luxury goods, anything. People who are fighting often don’t have basic needs, and if they do, don’t have a lot of things for relaxation or pleasure. Have a decent video card you won’t be using anymore, or a microphone you never got around to using?

I can see some potential for another layer of conspiracies here.

she writes bad/dumb article about games nobody cares about and that nobody but her patreon backers pay her for, so who cares either way

like i think she writes goofy things but at the same time reading her twitter feed there i'm like "yeah it is pretty stupid that you, a person who has only ever made one free game and that nobody in journalism cares or writes about and no publication pays, would be harassed for being part of the social justice cabal ripping videogames apart"

Now it all makes sense. So many people say how they enjoy certain posts on this very forum, but always fail to mention that they've paid money the creator of said forum. Some of them on more than one occasion. It's about time for us, posters, to establish higher standards of posting and start following them.

With their patron income as a fallback many SJW are standing up to the man and quitting their oppressive day jobs to fight for social justice full time. This plan will collapse when too many of them quit and there isn't enough actually working supporters to go around.

What? Patrick calls himself A Journalist and went to school for it. Yes Jeff and the rest of the living ones are personalities, poo poo I dont think Jeff can even type anymore through the pre-diabetic damage done to his exterminates, that is not the point.

Patrick had the capability to be the best, useful, enlightening because of the freedom he had and the brains he has. listen again to the "Welcome Patrick" podcast. None of that journalism materialized, he just got lazy as Jeff cannot manage people and fell into the pit of "Oh gosh My best Friends at Harmonix are so wacky!".

I hate Patrick with a passion because of what he could have been, and how rare it will be that someone else can ever have that opportunity that to this day he is still squandering.

I went to the same school as Patrick but not as a journalist. Once he got e-famous I realized that I actually met him at parties a couple of times and just never knew his name, he was distinctive cuz of his afro. I think I once danced with his GF at the time who was angry at him, that's my patrick story
