What the fuck does that even mean? Do these people think being a gamer is a genetic biological trait or somethig equally insane?
On a related note. Too bad it is so hard to read.

RogueStar just tweeted that he is delivering his nuclear data to the "right people" and calling out Jonathan Blow. He then tweeted FTC FTC FTC FTC FTC. /rolleyes

This is my third fight with the SJWs they co-opt everything. Do not underestimate them, one of the last stages that SJWs use is anonymous rape allegations. They are very good at the guilty before innocence narrative. Even topping off a wine glass of a female coworker can cast suspicion. Be very careful of what you say everything will be used against us.
In other words, someone at the FTC just received a soiled package full of printed Google search results.

Better listen to him. He's a veteran. This is his third fight!
I was previously unfamiliar with this "Moviebob" but I love his big picture video series.
This thread really introduced me to some interesting media critics.
So I think I lost a friend over Gamergate. They're not even a gamer, but they do believe in the evil and prevalence of SJW's.
The conversation culminated in them questioning me if I was a feminist to which I said I was. They told me they were sorry they ever 'misidentified me as a friend' and proceeded to remove me from their life.
Our goal is simple: create a safe space for heterosexual males who play video games. We won’t exclude homosexuals or attractive women from commenting on our articles, and we sincerely hope they find value in what we have to say, but understand that this site will be written by male gamers for male gamers. It aims to be a place where men can be themselves without SJW infiltration, judgement, and influence. In the year 2014, surprisingly, there are very few spaces for men online where their message isn’t attacked by white knights, man-haters, and SJW’s. I know an unmet need when I see one.
Huh. Though I find the self-deprecating tone cheerfully but comfortably self-aware, in the same vein as Zero Punctuation and Jimquisition.I.....I kinda can't stand him to be honest. He seems to be a nice guy and all but....I dunno. I watched his Scream IV review years ago and him starting with "Before Scary Movie knowing about movies was my superpower and that movie took it away by making fun of superheroes like me" was incredibly awkward and a lot of his videos have such a...tone.

Roosh V, owner of Return of Kings, just opened up a video game site. He admits that he's not a gamer and hasn't played a game since 2000. :|

"or attractive women"
SMH

Person wasn't worth having as a friend, imho.
Watched the moviebob thing really good insight to a lot of things, especially the entitlement that you can say shit on social media and they are obliged to give you a platform.
Also as for TBs comment you'd have to 1) not watch the video 2) watch the video and miss the point so completely to write that
I couldn't find him in the comments however?
Still not working for me, it only shows the first page of the comments as a forum. Maybe its because I'm not a member. Thanks anyway

Movie Bob done a video about censorship:

Erin Burke said:The mechanical context does not "fly in its face". The presence of a penalty (especially a token penalty as in Hitman: Absolution) does not negate the larger point being made, nor is a critical-path, mechanically-optimized playthrough the only thing we should be paying attention to.
GTA also "penalizes" you for running over civilians (by increasing the wanted level, thereby increasing your risk of death or arrest). Yet it would be ludicrous to claim that running over civilians (and other wanton violence) isn't a big part of the GTA series.
Hitman is, in many ways, a sandbox. Much of the appeal of the game comes from screwing around with the environment and its rules to see what you can and can't do.
And no, her videos never go anywhere near "games cause players to become sexist". The underlying idea is that media portrayals, -in aggregate-, can have an influence on our perceptions, attitudes, beliefs, etc. Media can have a normalizing effect. This is not the same as "Games make you sexist"; at most, it is "games, like any other form of media, can reinforce and perpetuate sexist ideas that exist within society".
And for anyone that doesn't think media has any effect on us, well...the advertising industry would like a word with you.
Casey Walrath said:Hitman is actually an extremely useful example when discussing Sarkeesian and Gamergate: If you defend Tropes v. Women and someone immediately responds with, "b...b..bbbut HITMAN" you can safely assume they've probably not bothered to watch her videos to form original thoughts about them and engage in good-faith debate, but are instead content to sit back and regurgitate talking points. After all, Sarkeesian discusses dozens and dozens of games, but it always...always...always comes back to Hitman for GG.
Julián Ramírez said:Andrew Kilroy [response to GGer] The problem is that, if those "spurious accusations" are so frequent, it's at least odd that there seem to be NO OTHER fault found or mentioned other than that simple example. It is not a "silver bullet" that instantly kills and refutes every other point Sarkeesian has put forward, as much as some would like it to be the case.
Ah! I have extensions which blocks/opts out of facebook stuff like thatIt's in the facebook comments.
If you still can't find it:
I waited for far too long before I watched this, but it was a nice summary of why twitter blocking users isn't sensorchip.

Yeah, not the kind of person you want to keep around. Still sucks to lose a friend though, even if they're a lunatic.Sounds like a win (for you)
I edited the post with answers to TB that I liked if you're interested. I can understand why you have those blocked BTWAh! I have extensions which blocks/opts out of facebook stuff like that
Thank you very much
Out of context that quote from Anita does seem dumb, but a threat to gaming it is not
From KiA:
I think it's just the result of spending all day surfing the web, and loudly announcing whenever you visit a site.Man... TB is starting to become some kind of supernatural being. In that he appears everywhere, someone must be summoning him.
Also I love the responses he got on Moviebob's video. Great counterpoints, though the number of 'likes' TB's comment got is still worrying.
A bit off-topic, but... I think it's funny how TB is saying now that DRM-free builds are a consumer friendly policy, when not too long ago he was all for the awful Xbox One policies and laughing at the #PS4NoDRM campaign. Does he want us to forget that stuff ever happened or what?Oh yeah, I meant to post in regards to TotalBiscuit dropping the hashtag, that he's rarely ever actually used it. So him saying he'll stop using the hashtag means next to nothing. As far as I can tell he's still supportive of this shitty movement, he's just trying to be sneaky about it.

I guess this is actually about ethics in DRM-free games, or something.

Say his name three times into a mirror.
