GamerGate thread

[notorious bum]

My view on SXSW hasn't changed over the past 5+ years: they suck herpes cock.

TotalBiscuit explains the origins of GG to the BBC.

Well worth the listen and he really doesn't bash anyone except the "journalists" that started this shit.

[Vandalhart]

BUT DOES HE MENTION THE A-GG Trinity?! (being the 3 women that "started it all")

I will give that a listen later.

[6souls]

He does.

[Blubbartron]

It's a pretty good interview. I feel kind of bad for the guy. He's put up with a lot of bullshit just for supporting simple rationality.

[Fiye]

Welp, two things to add. Gamergate got a win. Alison Rapp got fired from Nintendo.

And now they've started a new campaign. Diapers!

The thread is on r/KotakuInAction vbulletin keeps thinking I'm doing piracy.

What do I suggest? Given the recent news that Miki from Star Ocean 5 had more cloth put on her underwear due to feedback from overseas (it's not clear where this was from or who it was) and that it made quite an impact on Japanese users, I suggest you use that. Japanese users complained that her new underwear looked like diapers. (You can find my translation here and some translated Japanese user comments here.) I'll also have the full 4Gamer interview that came from posted in a polished translation on Karasu Corps soon.
Thus, diapers. Diaper memes. Diaper images. Diaper Twitter posts. Diaper YouTube comedy videos. Diaper short stories. Diaper shitposting (ha ha). Selfies with you holding diapers and looking at them in displeasure. Diaper Medium posts where you write poems about how much you hate diapers.

Incoming diaper memes folks.

Retweet and like others, signal boost it. Make Uncle Sam pictures that say "I WANT YOU TO QUIT PUTTING DIAPERS ON VIDEO GAME CHARACTERS!" Have an Obama pic that says, "YES WE CAN ... HAVE TEENS WEAR PANTIES!" The more images of American and Western iconic things you can cram in with your displeasure of diapers, the better, because we love that shit over here.

I'm unfamiliar with Alison Rapp, whats GG upset with her for?

[dasva]

Diapers? Oh man how did Nintendo know that was my fetish

I'm unfamiliar with Alison Rapp, whats GG upset with her for?

Imma quote some stuff from a kotaku article. I don't pay any attention to this but this diaper thing is fucking. Ugh.

She’s been a target at least since last fall, receiving so much online venom that she published a round-up. People had been calling her “cancerous” and a “feminazi face piercings bitch.” They dug through her online wish-lists to shame her, seeking anything to ruin her rep.

Rapp had been on the bad end of cannon shots in gaming’s culture war for many months. She was labelled a social justice warrior and blamed for what appeared to be Nintendo’s efforts to tone down sexualized elements in Western versions of games Nintendo had already published in Japan.

The idea that Rapp was pro-pedophile became the new line of attack, and an anti-sex trafficking group was even convinced to condemn Rapp. The attacks pushed the idea that kid-friendly Nintendo shouldn’t stand by her.

“Over the last few wks [weeks], I’ve had to talk safety measures w/my family - including talks w/police to warn them of possible suspicious activity,” she said. “Throughout this, GG has been digging up all kinds of things about my personal life and contacting Nintendo about them.”

She basically became a target because of censorship of games. Bravely Default's whole Indian class, the breast meteor in Xenosaga Chronicles X. All sorts of stupid junk. They went as far as to try to link pedophile activity and white supremacist connections to her and harass her with it.

She has no real affect on the censorship process but she was a member of nintendo and an assumed SJW so they hit her hard for 6 months.

SJWs getting upset someone was fired due to "public outcry"

OH THE IRONY

They didn't have to "try" to connect the pedophile shit with her, she's the one who said it.

Generally speaking I find judging people by a handful of tweets as retarded as trying to convey a complex idea via tweets.

[Karbuncle]

While I think she's meaning "Post-pubescent", I.E 13+ like Japan... I ... wow. Honestly I'd argue 16+ as age of consent in US (it is in some places in the US isn't it? 16?), but 13 is a little too young/immature for my tastes... and I do think at that age they're still young enough to make really retarded choices or be easily coerced (shit, so are some adults but there has to be a line drawn somewhere). At that point you're just discovering your own sexuality and it can lead to .. not good things?

Also the "Sex/Consensual Sex before 18" post seems less pedophilic and "13~17 year olds have sex, it happens". But based on the context of her other posts, I'd have to assume shes not talking about 13-17 year olds doing it with other 13-17 years olds... Yikes, I think I'd like some more context for her views still...

It paints a clear theme, but I address my issues with it above.

Here's a list of sources for all those tweets. Go nuts.

[Fiye]

Which this whole thing to me if FUCKING HILARIOUS. Because the gamergate people don't want this kind of censorship. So they tweet "HEY YOU'RE PUTTING DIAPERS ON THIS 16 YEAR OLD. HOW ABOUT YOU KEEP IT PANTIES LIKE IN THE JP RELEASE" and then go off on this person who's written an essay on Japan's 13+ consent law who works at nintendo.

So by doing this they're also undoing their work on not censoring it because of SJWs. They guys are fucking clueless.

[samalis]

Saw this posted and how do you work in PR and post this on twitter that says you work for Nintendo and not expect to get chewed out/fired? I have seen people get fired for way less.

[Fiye]

I don't get it samalis. Your point is really lost on me.

All I see are some pictures of her in an outfit that she admits looks sexy. And says it might be NSFW because of how risque it could be and how some people might view looking at that in a working enviroment.

More than likely she's probably someone who got viewed as a SJW because she was against Body Shaming or some shit.

Because you are on social media, representing a company. And posting that. She got targetted by GG and its fucked up. But there is still some common sense to posting shit that can get you fired for less. America is ass backwards and it sucks but if you want to post that stuff and political view points that your company doesn't share or want to indulge, the best thing is to not link your company to your social media. Is the point I am getting at.

Edit: I also think its weird to ask people to buy your stuff on amazon wishlist but I don't know too much about that shit to comment, still think its weird to post that stuff if you rep your company on social media. Maybe I am wrong but I thought it was common knowledge that companies can fire you pretty easily for shit you post on social media.

So you admit shes willingly provoking others into attacking her.

Instead of saying "some people might call this risqué so ill tag NSFW because theyre assholes", dont say anything.

[NynJa]

And what?

Shes encouraging pedophilia ("men who like kids", her own words), this has nothing to do with censoring pixels
