I’ve been with GamerGate since the start. It had been building up for years prior to the Zoe Post, Game’s sites and Publishers kept pushing what they could get away with and the Quinnspiracy was the final straw.
It wasn’t that Quinn had sex, it’s that she received positive press due to her private relationships and her piece of shit game actually got awards because of even more relationships she had. When people cried out, saying this wasn’t on, the in-group who are all buddies with each other just slandered the outcries rather than cleaning up their act.
Game Journo Pros, a secret emailing list, proves this collusion between game sites that are meant to operate separate from each other. Emails even flat out saying people who disagree with their ideology wont get coverage, which can make or break a game.
Quinn is not a victim, she actively attacked a program set up to help female indie devs (The fine young Capitalists), she was an abusive partner and by her definition (not one I agree with but one she promotes), raped her, now ex, boyfriend.
Just recently she went after another indie project that had plans to remove anonymity from harassment. Something you’d think Quinn would be in support of, after all her victim crying.
When the leader of this project, a woman, refused Quinn’s frankly insane attempts to get the project cancelled, she suddenly started received thousands of harassing messages, calls and the project crumbled as a result. Quinn, in emails with the project leader, said she new 4chan users, saying that they aren’t ‘all bad’ in her attempts to change the leaders mind on the project.
Quinn’s defense of anons, her wanting to shut down other female indie game project and a project set up to STOP harassment shines a very revealing light on her. Quinn absolutely caused the harassment against the project leader, she has those connections.
She makes literally thousands a month off patreon alone to do nothing, She spoke in front of the UN, virtually asking her criticism of her to be labeled hate speech and has also spoken to other political leaders within the US, wanting the internet further censored. Heck, there’s even talks about making a fucking MOVIE about her, where no doubt she will be portrayed (inaccurately) as a hero. She has done nothing but profit from all this supposed harassment that, day by day, is becoming more apparent she had majority sent to herself.
THAT is but a sliver of the whole picture that is ‘GamerGate’, that’s not mention fucked up localization of games, Gawker, banning, censorship,the pollution of gaming public image by said journo sites ect. You could literally write a novel on it.
Context: A rogue who takes things a bit too literally, a blind assassin and a drug addicted necromancer (me) are interrogating a warlord’s son to find a way into his dad’s fortress. The rogue was the lucky pick to interrogate him.
Rogue: So, how do we get in?
Warlord’s Son: I’ll die before I tell you.
Rogue: Have it your way.
Rogue, OOC: I cut his throat.
DM: Wait what?
Rogue: I cut his throat.
DM: He bleeds out within minutes. Congrats.
Rogue: Hey, (me), bring him back.
Me: Sure thing.
Rogue: Hey what was that about dying first?
Warlord’s Son: WHAT IN THE UNHOLY HELL IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE.
Here’s a comic I’ve been doing in my off time since E3 ended. I don’t think anybody predicted Zelda actually stealing all the hype at E3 this year! It certainly surprised me!
Mic decided to investigate these claims for themselves and see if this alleged former Trumpian was telling the truth. They set up a $1 recurring donation to the Trump Campaign, and when they tried to cancel it, Mic confirmed that there was no cancelation option.
Not only that, but you could not edit or remove your credit card information on the website.
Mic concluded that the way to stop donating is to call your bank and cancel your credit card. If not, you will be donating to Trump forever.
To be fair, Mic also set up recurring $1 donations to Clinton’s campaign to see if they too tried to trap you into an eternity of donating. Mic noted that it was very simple to cancel donations on Clinton’s website.
okay so something i really adore about garnet is that she’s cool, but she’s very deliberately cool. she knows she’s cool. she works on it. she doesn’t ask questions. she delivers gravely portentous lines. she adjusts her shades to gleam meaningfully in punctuation to whatever bit of mysterious wisdom she’s imparting. she’s constantly showing off how good she is at punches, then pretending like it’s no big deal.
and when she’s not doing her absolute best to be the cool mom, she’s a huge fangirlish dork who picks pearl up and shakes her when she’s excited about shit. and who gets flustered on the phone. and who makes heart-fingers at steven and wears oven mitts and thinks most of what amethyst does is hilarious. she’s not the most mature gem in the room. she’s two kids in a beautiful trench coat playing I’m Definitely A Real Grownup who breaks character the very moment she thinks of a good pun.
I am Silver Tongue, I am an artist. I have many characters and you can check out my art in the art tag. I occasionally practice witchcraft though I don't do anything too complicated. I am girl 2 and don't know what else to put here.
