This entire thing is the greatest proof of something I've said for a long time - outrage & shame politics is just a way to enforce your own ideology on others, under the disguise of the judgement of society. You invent some tenuous psuedo-intellectual reasoning for why the other person should feel guilty, then harass them until they submit. Its a shameless domineering attitude masquarding as 'enlightenment'.

SJW was invented to describe this tactic perfectly.

The site was famous for scoops, epic gifs, and quality members, but has since turn to poo poo in every aspect. I've never seen so many bad gaming opinions.

The gaming side is just as bad. Try calling out the Games as Service model for example and you'll be greeted by corporate ballwashers.

As for the political side, it used to have somewhat decent chat until they literally banned anyone who strayed from the liberal opinion.

It's primarily a game forum but also has a very popular off-topic section. During the late 2000s and early 2010s there was a bit of a rivalry between Neogaf and Something Awful to be the dominate message board site. Reddit won, but both sites are still chugging, though have fallen far from their glory days. Though, Neogaf did much of it by chocking itself.

lol sometimes whenever some new "women/black people/lgbtq hate bernie!!!" thing comes up on twitter i remember to go look at the lateat one of this poll where they for some reason still ask peoples' approval/disapproval of hillary and bernie and it always rules

http://harvardharrispoll.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/HHP-September-Wave_Topline-Memo_Custom-Banners_Registered-Voters.pdf

bernie is the most approved politician of the ones they asked about among these groups:
women
18-34
35-49
hispanics
black or african american
democrats
independents
liberals
moderates
clinton voters
people who voted 3rd party
college graduates
non-college graduates
urban residents
suburban residents
households making less than $75k/year
households making $75k/year or more
also overall
