Because up until then, they were basically on the same side, and still think in similar ways.In short they are bad as the people they claim to be fighting against.

I don't know. I can't say. That's past my time. If so, it would match ZQ's history of praying on weak men. Like people don't know, but Eron Gjoni, the guy who wrote The Zoe Post and started this whole thing... he's not what you might call a chud or a dude bro. He was cuck meme before the cuck meme even existed. He's spent the last ten years trying to pretend like he has nothing to do with GamerGate at all.
ZQ is scum, either way. I don't think we should celebrate someone's suicide or excuse her bullying. But I'd say it's pretty likely that she targeted this guy because she knew he was weak and someone who she could hurt emotionally. It's her MO.
So you guys are young, and you maybe don't know how things were back then. We're talking about the Obama administration years, so I wouldn't expect you to know. But back then, there was this concept going around of "New Media". The idea was that newspapers, and even cable TV channels were "Dinosaur Media" that was about to be replaced by always online journalism. And the same thing was in gaming media too. I don't know what you're talking about Twitch. Twitch was still Justin.tv at the start of Gamergate. And you didn't even have things like YouTube game reviewers yet. That hadn't really happened yet. Instead Kotaku, Polygon, Giant Bomb, these were the just about the only way people got game reviews.
And the hilarious joke about New Media is that it was trying to be EXACTLY like old media. These companies were just trying to be an always online version of Game Informer. They were trying to be magazines. EXCEPT when it came to ethics policies. Then they wanted to pretend to be hobby blogs again.
The lawsuit we brought against the Kotaku's parent company was for 50 million dollars. You think Kotaku is pulling in 50 million dollars these days, hell no. We accomplished a lot. Gawker Media no longer exists, these game journalism companies basically don't exist, with YouTube reviewers picking up the slack for them. And like do you know who Leigh Alexander is? Miss "I am gaming" Leigh Alexander? Of course you don't.
The problem is we crushed these people. 50 million dollars is a lot to come back from. But they have come back and this is what they've done to gaming and to the Internet.
I don't know. Honestly Josh seems closest to the spirit of what we were doing back then. I don't really have much of a problem with him.
I'm trying to think who else. TotalBiscuit. That's a real obvious one. First leader we had. And then he proceeded to back out as hard as he possibly could because of things getting to right for him (and they weren't really that right wing at the time). Then died of ass cancer. I used to watch his Secret Hitler videos religiously. And Hearthstone.
God listen to those lyrics. We were so fucking dumb. "The extremist boat was a sickening sight." "But with moderate opinions Jon sowed them in."
We really thought we were "moderates" fighting "extremists". We had no fucking idea what the fuck was going on.
Each of the YouTubers who started out as Gamergate commenters has ended up with serious personal issues. Many have been accused of misconduct, including predatory behavior, substance abuse, and mental instability. Some have even been accused of serious crimes, including child exploitation. In short they are bad as the people they claim to be fighting against.
these are the moments where I simp for Josh, I love when he treats the kiwis like that.Null would prefer it if all your donations were in crypto. He admits he could implement something more above ground but would prefer not to.

Couldn't agree more. It's like they use their pseudo-intellectual posturing and outrage-baiting to attract a following, and then exploit their audience's emotions for personal gain. And you're right, it's the ring leaders who are the real culprits, preying on vulnerable people and whipping them up into a frenzy. And Josh's website is a perfect example of this - it's a cesspool of provocative content designed to get a rise out of people, rather than any genuine attempt at thoughtful discussion or commentary.It is a big theme with the internet in general, even Josh himself. All these people who pretended to take principled and nuanced stands on things ended up being abusers and even criminals who engaged in law breaking behavior. And it showcases how these show boaters were actually sociopaths who used the situation of the day (first Gamergate, now Josh pretending to be fighting for free speech against tranny pedophiles) to benefit themselves.
It's easy to dunk on the camp followers but tbh these ring leaders are the ones who send mentally unwell people into these flights of fancy. Josh is bitter about GG because he didn't grift off desperate people as well as Sargon et al. did.
Only Metokur, the true leader of the Aqua Teen Onion Force, remains untouched.

If I knew how to send $20 in BTC I'd probably also know better than to sideload a kiwivirus. Just sayin'.Null would prefer it if all your donations were in crypto. He admits he could implement something more above ground but would prefer not to.

Josh: "Did literally a single notable thing happen in this?"

I dunno retard you were the one who featured it hoping people would make fun of Ralph to make you feel better. All you proved however is that even Ralph is more likeable than you. How pathetic.
Josh is starting to realise he's nothing more than an extremely minor footnote in internet history.
I think he's just about the only one who came out unscathed. There are a few minor ones here and there, however. Out of the more notable ones, yeah, he came out with his hands clean.Only Metokur, the true leader of the Aqua Teen Onion Force, remains untouched.

unyuns changering PC when for to win 10. unyuns say "you go sleepering night night no HIBERNATIONS" unyuns put gun too PC face. make go night sleep. full. always.Funny, Windows, since version 8, by default hibernates instead of shutting down when you hit Shut Down. The only difference is that it goes through the logoff process first.
That is a funny ass post, just merely funny for the fact this is coming from lidl

Null bans pedophiles, and if you say otherwise, you're a FUCKING SPERG.
