CODE RED

Apparently some stupid western academic is considering instigating real D&C between the GamerGate moderates and "extremists" and is going deliver a talk about his proposed stategy. So far it's not even known what does he perceive "moderates" and "extremists" - it might be just more active people, or strongly anti-sjw ones, or anything else for that matter. What matters is that there are some stupid academics interested in "de-escalating" gamergate, and it doesn't appear as if they were considering "apologizing for lying" a valid option.

Since the author didn't leak/discuss it here first, it definitely sounds anti. For an academic conference in PORTLAND of all places, I don't expect much impact, it's just more preaching to the choir. That overdue earthquake for the Cascadian Subduction Zone can't come soon enough. Swallow the whole damn clique, Mother Earth.

How would they resolve it?

To do so, you would have to repeal the entire first amendment.

I don't see how you can de-escalate this. This is a powerful movement that the establishment has legitimized our grievances.


829d05 No.297214

"split the moderate from the extreme"

D&C shills.

The extreme is an illusion created by conflation of trolls with those of us with grievances regarding media neutrality, truth, and SJW insanity.

Is there any source to see what they discussed? The conference already happened btw. But this is far from being a Code Red.

c50ead No.297283

David Auerbach already wrote exactly what these cunts would need to do to achieve exactly that goal of "splitting the moderates from the extremists": just fucking debate the journalistic ethics part like grown fucking adults trying to reach real solutions.

But it's not going to be that. That would make too much fucking sense. Instead, I almost guarantee that this is going to be some insultingly idiotic maneuver that will involve studying us as if we were an unknown tribe in the middle of a jungle instead of treating us as fucking people. It's gong to get fucking nowhere, but they'll all feel very self-satisfied with their valiant efforts, pat each other in the back and go home.

Oh, you fucks want to de-escalate, do you?

You can start by getting the entire media to apologize for a whole year (and counting) of willful misrepresentations, lies and slander against us for our having the temerity to want some fucking journalists to act like the fucking professionals they're supposed to be.

So yeah, you get right on that; Imma make myself real comfortable here while I wait.

Let's make use of S4T

We can use him to do both:

1) Attack and debunk these pseudoacademics.

2) And serve as an example of what an extremist spergs most people want to distance themselves form actually looks like

That way we could also make sure they do not succed when they try whatever retarded D&C shillery or lame co-opt attmept to have the ethicscucks drive de antiSJW aka the real GG out

That said, S4T is like the giant spaghetti monster on free fall, i don't know how good of an idea this may be


737eb9 No.297343

Does anyone have citations of what these people have actually said, rather than speculating on what they might have said?


2b0e52 No.297349

>>297184

I don't know you guys but I'm glad the antigamers are doing this, simply because it means WE ARE WINNING

They want to descalate GG because they know they can't win and that at this rate they'll get crushed

So they are looking for ways to reach an armistice: they say they fuck off if we do the same

Of course they plan to fuck off only temporarily, but point is this is the only way out they got left

Keep firing those canons leaders

If they actually give two shits about de-escalating GG, they'll come to 8ch, they'll come here, they'll come to KiA, they'll come to Twitter, and they'll actually try to engage people and respect their complaints. If, on the other hand, they're just going to publish more poorly-researched, libellous bullshit like the last few "academic" papers I've read about GG, that will instead have the opposite effect.

I'll make it easier for them:

How NOT to de-escalate gamergate:

Step one: Do anything to them with some intent to control


1f060b No.297833

Didn't Ghazi already try this? Something something 'Let's try to appeal to the moderates and get them to drop GG'? I remember screencapping it when one of their mods on Twitter claimed that they never tried to split GG.

The thing is, this will never happen, because despite a majority of us being moderates, anyone and anything that disagrees with an SJW is a racist misogynist transphobic shitlord to them. SJWs don't believe we have moderates in the first place, and always assume we're the scum of the earth, even if our involvement was, say, a single tweet. That is because they don't have the maturity to believe in civil disagreement. They see everything as black and white, with no room for gray.

In other words, this isn't going to go anywhere, because for them to even begin to 'separate' what they perceive as 'moderates' and 'extremists', they have to acknowledge there are moderates in the first place, which Anti-GG is absolutely loathe to do because then their narrative that we're all women-bashing neckbeard bigots falls apart. Anti-GG has vehemently been denying anything about us is moderate since the start of this, and they aren't going to turn their backs on that to humor a dude and a paper.

I expect salt to flow from this as they disagree among themselves, and, eventually, prune somebody from the herd for going against their sacred beliefs.

>>297398

We'll just take those apologies and use that to fuel our burning passion against extremist propaganda brighter than ever before. If anything, that would doom them to a life of dealing with us, because after persevering for a year and finally getting a much-deserved apology, we'll just be motivated all the more to hold on. We're not going anywhere and we're not disappearing. A year-long media blitz on gamers has shown that they don't give a crap about any sense of accuracy or decency when it comes to reporting on us. Group of gamers come together twice a year to raise millions for charity? We don't even get a mention. But using gamers to push false controversy for easy outrage and clicks for ad revenue? All of a sudden they want to report on us, shoveling article after article of shit and inaccuracy without a care.

If /cow/ has taught me anything, people who made their fame and living lying and attacking others for controversy don't ever change. They apologize when things get to their absolute worst, hide for a year or two, and then pop out with an all new outrage and fervor for getting the spotlight on them. All those sites that failed us last year can apologize, and I'll note that, but I will not return to them. There's dozens of alternatives that not only do their articles better than a glorified blog post, but do so without throwing me under the bus for a quick click.

De-escleating GamerGate, a how-to guide for complete morons.

1) STOP slandering and belittling gamers.

2) STOP all forms of cronyism in games journalism. This includes, but is not limited to: a)Favorable coverage to friends, family members and games you've invested in. b) communicating with rival publications to make sure all of you are telling the same story.

3) STOP demanding people be fired for offending you.

4) STOP encouraging artists to self-censor to cater to your specific tastes.

5) STOP deflecting legitimate arguments with accusations of <insert identifier here>-ism. Example: Do not respond to "Her videos are crap, she's demonstrably lying about this game" with "SHE? OH SO WOMEN CAN'T CRITIQUE YOUR PRECIOUS GAMES?! GROW UP SHITLORD??????"

6) RESUME acting as consumer advocates, playing and reviewing games to look for anti-consumer practices or low effort shovel ware. Examples include but are not limited to: Microtransactions, buggy launches followed by using the first day buyers as beta testers, deceptive or outright false statements about performance, claiming an "open world" but only really fleshing out a storyline for the "good guy" playthough, Companies and studios that unapologetically insult their consumers.

Some of you may be expecting me to say something about pushing sjw crap out of video games entirely, but I'm content with just not buying games that have heavy handed morality lessons I don't agree with.

How to de-escalate GG:

1. Make it illegal for women to play video games

2. Arrest Sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn

3. Fire all women

4. Legalize rape

GG poisoned the idea of videogames as a topic of serious minds, because the collective voice of GG sounds to University heads like a masturbating autistic Dylan Roof. Budgets get slashed. Academics have a vested interest in cleaning up the medium's public image.

Looks like we are going to have even more shilling, de-railing and maybe spam

Here will be sort of ok since the mods will purge shills to a certain degree

But its going to get complicated on twitter if they have some amount of numbers

The "shut people with proof" is a basic in the internet but,

should we have something prepared?

can we even get prepared for the shitstorm?

Again, do we have anything more on this than the title and a two-sentence abstract? Did anyone manage to attend the talk or hear from someone who did? Has Perlmutter's name shown up anywhere else in relation to GG?

His diigo collection includes both pro and anti stuff. I wouldn't write him off yet.

Before you all jump down on @tedperl's throat, you might want to check out his social media activity.

This might be another Grummz, Koretzky or Cassie Jaye in the making. Even if this guy won't reach out to pro-GG, prepare the red pills anyway.
