Political correctness gone mad! Won't anyone please think of the innocent straight white males? All they want to do is play video games in peace without having to remember that women, black people, and trans people exist.

That’s about how long I’ve had SJWs stalk me around, misrepresenting what I’ve said, written and then distributing it far and wide to their like-minded friends.

It's a little hard to take the bee incident out of context, really. Or parking in a handicap spot, on video no less.

I'm not going to trot out anybody. I'm going to say that #notyourshield has proven that people behind #gamergate are as diverse as the colors in skittles. I've seen white people, black people, hispanic people, slavic people, asian people, indian people, males, females, non-binary gender people, straight people, gay people, bisexual people... Meanwhile the gaming journalism sphere is comprised of 85% white males.

Stating that somebody is a "token minority" or an "uncle tom" for disagreeing with you is erasing their agency. These people are perfectly capable of thinking on their own. Stating that "they're just ~*~internalizing bigotry~*~" for not falling in line with what the Social Justice Krew states is correct thought is stating that they're incapable of forming their own thoughts or defending themselves, damsels in distress (whoa see what I did there?) that need rescuing by saviors, usually weird suburban white kids. Whoa talk about a white savior complex.

So your idea of 'going outside' is: Driving to Dunkin Donuts and purchasing a drink that is 90% sugar.

I'm gonna be honest, every single person I've seen who's made a big deal about gamergate has been a weird sadsack. I don't even care who's right and who's wrong, I just know that it's extremely important to a lot of deeply broken people.

I wan't to talk about gamergate in a larger social sense. Like, white guys in general are mad they have to treat others with respect, not just in gaming.

Then again, maybe I am a sad sack werido who likes to go hunt out the worst comments on the internet about anything and just be depressed about why people just can't be nice to other people. Maybe taking up S&M might be more healthy in the long run.
