Granted it was during a bleak period of my life when I was so reactionary. But my god, to think these goobers are still around today, still doing racism and sexism, just moving from target to target to take out the impotent rage on.
Just reminded of it today with the “discourse” of Yasuke being in Ass Creed and G*mers changing any woman not white and waifish with AI.
Well sure. But if the broken clock happened to be right about the time in this case, my question was why anyone would be ashamed of believing it.
Pointing out an obvious problem and assigning blame incorrectly does not make them right. That’s the problem being highlighted here. I don’t think it’s weird for someone to feel ashamed about getting caught up in Gamergate discourse because none of it was legitimate aside from what was being presented at the surface (the ethics of gaming journalism).
its a pretty common fascist tactic, idk why we’re supposed to give points to idiots who acknowledge basic reality and then blame it on like random minorities
