Like Fuyu said, it's a shitshow on both sides but it's been an entire year and ms Quinn still can't live a semi-normal life because they're still harassing her and publishing any new addresses that she is forced to move to. Just fucking give it up.
And "swatting" in America is pretty much attempted murder given the track record of police shootings.
Edit: And most recently Donald Trump's using the internet shitshow brigade to harass a news anchor for asking a basic obvious question. Really? Y'all want to fight for that guy ?
"it's a shitshow on both sides but it's been an entire year and ms Quinn still can't live a semi-normal life because they're still harassing her and publishing any new addresses that she is forced to move to. Just fucking give it up." I never started. This is my main issue with Gamergate. While I do think Quinn can engage in hyperbole, both sides are bad for this. Throughout SPJ Airplay almost everyone on the panel got doxxed, those who weren't even a part of Gamergate too like Koretzky. So this is an issue both sides need to address, I just don#t know how they'd do it
"And most recently Donald Trump's using the internet shitshow brigade to harass a news anchor for asking a basic obvious question. Really? Y'all want to fight for that guy " No, I'm a Bernie supporter, even though I'm Canadian. In fact, there were only a few people that ever said they supported Donald trump in Gamergate, one got retweeted. Then a, for lack of a better term, shit-storm blew up. A whole lot of people in Gamergate got painted as trump supporters, when most of them aren't because trump hates violent video games. On whatever trump did with the "shitshow brigade", I don't know enough to comment but it sounds like him. He is a racist and sexist pig in my eyes.
I just want to point out that a lot of GG is back and forth. As much as there is a fringe, whether 3rd party or otherwise, of people who has doxxed in the name of GG, there's also like ms Quinn who has been known to doxx in the past (hell dump) on the other side too. That's why I "switch" a lot. While I like Gamergates goals, the ends do not justify the means (Even though Bob Chipman disagrees saying "Here's something you should know about me: I "believe" that there is (almost) no such thing as a bad tactic - only bad TARGETS")
Ah ok sorry I thought you were addressing me directly when you said "Y'all want to fight for that guy ?" and " Y'all want to fight for that guy ?" Personally, I'm starting to stop giving a crap about gamergate. At the end of the day it's a lot easier just to ignore gamergate at this point and look for ethics without the bagging.

Right so I'll break it down.

I wasn't talking directly to you. Just addressing Gamergaters in the expansive generality
