TerraPrime Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 It's enjoyable to watch how daskool steadfastly refuses to even condemn StormFront and its involvement in GG just to score some points. Now that's tribalism with minimal investment writ large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that's tribalism with minimal investment writ large. This is an internet forum, not a political campaign. Why would he launch into some grandiose condemnation of Stormfront? That they suck should go without saying Hitler endorsed smoking bans and vegetarianism. So fucking what? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that's tribalism with minimal investment writ large. Scot feels that some slope browed knuckle dragging assholes on a Nazi forum discussing an anarchic internet campaign is exactly the same as a European government having Nazis in charge of cabinet ministries. Sure then Terra, Stormfront are appalling I def should have said even though it has precisely nothing to do with GG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denvek Posted October 29, 2014 Share Posted October 29, 2014 http://imgur.com/qrEhpVL I saw this, and wondered where the Downfall parody was.

Lyanna Stark Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Not availible outside the US, alas. I googled Anita Sarkeesian and Colbert Report and got a hit I could view. Not sure what the link was but use your magic google-fu. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently they already won. :( Hilarious. It's amazing to see some of the delusions of grandeur and paranoid fantasies these people have. I laughed at the one guy lamenting that they've lost so bad they'll be lucky if they're viewed as "reasonable in history books." Like they're going to be studying #gamergate in 9th grade American History class. It's also entertaining to watch some of the paranoid doublethink at play - the nefarious anti-#gamgergate forces are both omnipresent (controlling the mainstream media, the New York Times, Colbert, etc.) yet also on the verge of defeat ("this is their last stand!" "this means we've won!!"). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyenon15 Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 This thing is getting sillier by the minute.The sad thing is if Anita ever had a legit point in her rants, it's lost and long gone. The whole thing is a circus of douchebags, myself included. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The angry resistance of the unthinkingly privileged who are now realizing that they are no longer being exclusively (but still overwhelmingly) catered to.
