I mean maybe "ethics in games journalism" tricked some people into thinking it was about the whole weirdness where the companies buying ad space are the same ones whose products are being reviewed but it started and ended at misogyny

Most of those bailed pretty quick though.

Which was both the conclusion of that redpanels cartoon and that article, but with entirely opposite points of view on that conclusion, which was the only reason I posted the article in relationship to the cartoon. The specifics to the origin of gamergate is besides the point. And to be clear, gamergate is and always was stupid as gently caress. wearing a lampshade fucked around with this message at 17:26 on Feb 19, 2017 |

I'm sure Quinn et al appreciate that you just know their lives being ruined was only incidental to the origins of the movement. It was literally started by an angry ex bitching about how she dumped his abusive rear end by airing out whatever dirty laundry he could make up; the internet crowd just happened to see an angle they could work with (games journalism) and ran with it without a modicum of critical thinking, and here we are now.

In many ways it was a precursor to the current plague of nerd neo-nazis. Has the term "nerdzis" been coined yet or am I the first

I thought "Rural White People" was code for "republicans"... but Goat Yoga is something liberals would do... I'm confused. I'm glad Tinsley can't even fit the duck head into the frame anymore. Maybe eventually the comic will be the black circles that make up Mallard's eyes with a speech balloon off to the side. Edit: Please lets not talk about gamergate.

Like everything else in this trainwreck of a presidency, I think there's zero actual thought going on to justify it. I think he just hopes it'll piss off The Liberals. Which is kind of funny because it just makes us try to, and fail to, worry about the flabby old bastard.

I think it's possible he was just trying to make a silly, funny cartoon, and so chose not to use serious Actual Wars. To be fair, it's been a very slow news-week, must be pretty hard for political cartoonists to find material. Basically nothing's happened and everything's gone smoothly.
