"I support single mothers, peace, living space, and veterans. I am #LiterallyHitler." Anyway, here's from the other gamergate thunderclap:
-
I know lots of people who are stuck in a quagmire of having an indie identity but lacking the willingness or confidence to learn and do things, who are perfectly capable of doing so. To them making and consuming video games is an identity first and foremost and only maintain themselves to the degree that they can uphold such an identity. Yeah they're mostly male teenagers and college students.

I'm watching Misfits and it makes me really angry that I like it.

I just listened to a little bit of totalbiscuit's new rant, and it's kind of weird how he's slowly turning around on certain issues in a way that sounds kind of apologetic, but with bad faith. He kept saying that editorials and "agenda" driven articles and criticisms are necessary and interesting but should be separated and clearly noted, away from the "objective" mechanics focused criticisms (???). It just seems like he's trying to keep his opinions on thematic content wrapped up in a journalistic quality argument in a way that on the surface gives thematic criticism a fair shake while still relegating it to a lesser form of criticism. He's created two sides to his argument that are both defensible: you can't say that he's being unfair to thematic criticism because that's his "personal preference" but then wraps the opinion up in an absolute statement of how things should be, which he thinks is defensible because it's "objective". It's just really confusing and I don't understand how you can adopt an opinion like this without significant cognitive dissonance.

Hey fuck it. Who cares about Zoe Quinn, or if she's a bad person or a good person. My problems with gamergate never centered around the ethos of this one person, it centered around the exploitation of a person's image to achieve unrelated, orbital goals and coopting platforms to keep the cogs turning in a monstrous, destructive, regressive, cheetostained steamroller.

Is it accurate to categorize nazi Fascist sentiment as reactionary if the status quo at the time was democratic? Just wanted to know if reactionism is dependent on change from the status quo or just change in general. Relevant because I wanted to figure out if the weird fascist element of gamergate is the product of reactionism or if reactionism fuelled an existing sentiment.

It's where curated cured meats meet curated uncured meats; a curious curation of cured and uncured.

It might be the translation but Sartre has similar weirdness. "Good faith wishes to flee the 'not-believing-what-one-believes'. Bad faith flees being by taking refuge in 'not-believing-what-one-believes'." Like damn JP what

It's kind of screwed up how art focused on form usually ends up perpetuating stereotypes, and how defending the form turns into defending the stereotypes. Talking to a lot of gators is revealing to me how they have predetermined ideas for how games "should be", but don't realize how that same mindset perpetuates attitudes baked into the form. If you say all games "should be" about being a hero, invariably all games become about wish fulfillment, implying helplessness about certain people (usually women) and self importance. If you say games "should be" about fun, then it must ignore all semblence of serious argument or idea. It's interesting to see how this sort of infantile view of art informs the worldview of gators, informed by an objectifying cultural background.

And it would be a space pub and you would call it Bar Fly 2 The first Bar Fly was revolutionary but didn't hold up to critics

Not disagreeing with anything you said here, but at the same time you participated in trolling this one gater a while back. Granted this specific person probably had no intention of engaging in an argument in good faith, and the discussion I had with him following it took a long time and a lot of energy and went nowhere. But I still can't help but think that there could've been a way of showing people like him how wrong they might be without looming like a bully (I was trolling him too but yknow...yeah).

Ok that's. Bgbbbdhbbdbbbdbb. Also david jaffe is having a thing going on.

Idk that seems like a reasonable response for someone who might not have followed this from the beginning, and may not understand that the hellish monstrosity of gamergate has consumed the allegiances of reasonable people by coopting arguments and retconning messages (like the self serving political entity it is). Doesn't make it right to immediately take a centrist stance and not to dive deeper, but assuming this person genuinely came into this without context, he would basically be the victim of the weird gamergate spin machine and the pure vitriol that exists.

http://gfycat.com/PeriodicWaryBobwhite Trying to think of mechanics for my TWITTERCORE game So far I'm using the spectrum data from the music to change the color of the background every bass hit, and everything sort of stretches and deforms based on what the loudest frequency is.
