I still can't believe how many people got willingly "duped" to a fucking organized terror campaign. How many people got recruited to obvious bigotry and neo-nazis in their midst. Because Leigh Alexander wrote some words on the internet, it was okay to collaborate with white supremacists. Because Anita Sarkeesian has an opinion about video games, it was okay to stand shoulder to shoulder with neo-nazis.
And then you have people who are still unscathed in video games culture who supported all these nazis - Erik Kain from Forbes, Total Biscuit, Boogie2988, and so on. While game companies stood silent and watched.
Fuck everyone who supported Gamergate or who now try to wash their hands from the pain they've caused.

Just looked for his husband, found Milo's instagram and this is the comment with the most recent image:
The Left is shaken that some of their own have been emailing me privately. Well, I have a message for them. You live near MILO fans. You work alongside MILO fans. We are everywhere. You'll never know who we are. But we are watching you. We hear your conspiracy theories; we see your hypocrisy. And when the time is right we will strike. MILO can't be beaten because MILO is an idea. A symbol of rebellion against an arrogant, clueless, self-regarding elite. Your name-calling and character assassinations only make us stronger. You have 30 years of MILO to look forward to. Strap yourselves in, darlings.
I genuinely don't know how much is done for the persona, and how much is actual delusion.

I mean, considering Milo is a self-hating asshole who wants the groups he belongs to suppressed, would it be a surprise if his husband hates black people and homosexuals too? Marrying Milo sounds like a punishment a self-hating person would inflict on themselves anyway.
Hell, haven't studies shown that homophobic men get off more on gay porn than men that aren't homophobic? Their dirty talk is probably straight up hate speech mixed with bad World War II history.

The reason milo fancies black guys is racist. He spoke about it years ago. He fancies black guys because being screwed by a black guy is the mos transgressive, shocking thing he can do. He literally gets off on the fact that a white guy shouldnt be sleeping with a black guy because of the race aspect.
Were we talking about the history of past decades or are we talking about current events? Look at the thread title. The right being represented here is Milo, Bannon, Gamergate, and Neo-Nazism. The left is the left that faces that. Are those equally dangerous?
Even look at the argument in the post I was replying to. The harm that they were telling us liberals cause is... they might disagree with you in a thread about sexuality in The Witcher. Oh no.

Looking back over page two it's really funny how all the burner accounts start off with "I don't really know anything about ____, but here's a long-winded refutation of everyone else's posts and a defense of ____."
It's like the foundation of bad faith arguments to pretend that Google doesn't exist. Do these people just wander into discussion forums on physics and economics just to give uneducated hot takes?
If you have to feign ignorance of literally everything someone has said or done in public in the past 5 years to make them look not so bad, I dunno, pick a new internet personality to Stan?

Of course not.

That's not an assumption, I'm saying what you did. That's not an insinuation. The underlying context is in the post you quoted and the thread you are posting in. If there's "no underlying context" in your post, it's because you took it out when you removed that sentence from a larger post and ignored what it was replying to.
If you're trying to read my post as an accusation that you're a Nazi, that's not my intention. My accusation is that you are in a thread about recent events, replied to a post about recent events, and then decided that you were going to talk about history instead.

Key point you brought up for people reading this: pay attention to the grilling Congress and the Special Prosecutor's office is giving Facebook, Twitter, Google, etc. Even if they're not taking money from these fucks' paymasters, the laissez faire wild west internet is being exploited for these sustained Culture Wars/active measures.
Hence the focus on Mercer. I highly doubt Breitbart makes money, especially after their attention plummeted after January.
Charlottesville had a bunch of them scrambling; "oh, it's 'New Right'" cuz these Vanilla ISIS were seen marching with Klansmen and skinheads who beat and killed innocents. Similar was mentioned in the article; it's great to troll so as to get control of the narrative, but it can backfire on them. But how to sustain the light on that connection though...

After Dan Lyons got caught exchanging emails making shitty jokes about Zoe Quinn with Milo, he went into crazy damage control mode. Denied any of it was real, said it was a witch hunt, then finally admitted it was true and said he emailed Zoe an apology.
Zoe responds saying she never received an apology, and Dan Lyon responds by blocking her on Twitter and goes silent for hours. Suddenly he pops back up with some excuse that he had mailed the apology to the "contact us" contact link on her book website. Then he says he is sending it to the same email again because "the first one probably didn't get through (?)"
Zoe finally got the apology the second time he sent it (actually the first time, pretty obvious he was lying about the initial one).
And here it is:
It seriously reads almost exactly like your average junior burner account in a GG thread.
"I didn't have any idea of the history between Milo and you or even what Gamergate is, I just thought it would be a laugh to yuck it up with him about how ugly you are and how you're probably a tranny"

It's all because these Nazi/Nazi sympathizer stooges can't even think for themselves so they just parrot the exact same buzzwords and memes pumped into them from their Breitbart/Russian masters. They are straight up sheep. I also think deep down that they know this and its one of the main reasons they are so super defensive and flip their shit over the most innocuous things. They know they're pathetic wastes of flesh but they are terrified of confronting that fact and trying to improve.
It's kind of shocking to see how GamerGate was in many ways, ground zero for this. As someone who strongly opposed the gators at the time, it's depressing too, to see that our efforts failed, and that we weren't able to show the average person what this group really was.
To see so many sympathetic to it... and to see it built on to help hand the white house to white supremacists...
Yeah. I feel more than a little inadequate today.
I'm not going to throw the towel in though.
