Postmortem
A mistake that most people make is to assume that the more followers you can recruit, the better. That's true if you are trying to win an election. A vote is a vote regardless of whether the voter is deeply committed or just barely interested enough to get to the polls. But when you're building a revolutionary movement, the number of people you have is far less important than the quality of your people and the depth of their commitment. Too many lukewarm or otherwise unsuitable people will ruin the movement.

linux is kill, end of the line?
SJW sycophant Lennart Poettering is slowly hijacking linux via systemd with it's massive feature creep and he has the full weight of red hat, the largest contributers to linux kernal development, behind him. Torvalds himself said "systemd has already won". They have their sights on BSD as well.I'm really starting to think this is the end of the line. Total information control.

I have seen some people here talking about being "anti-left". Why exactly? Even the guys at /leftypol/ hate SJW, some leftists (very big umbrella term to declare being an anti, by the way) are actually fed up with the Cultural Marxism/postmodernist approach the mainstream modern left is taking. This means they are potential allies, why be against them? Shouldn't we focus in Cultural Marxism (not related to Marx, by the way) and not a really big demographic with potential allies?

We need to discuss future relations with #GG as a whole and our involvement. Most /pol/lacks interested in #GG do not identify as /pol/ for obvious reasons and participate simply as any other anon. Shills posing as /pol/ or misguided /pol/lacks are both being used as examples of sliding discussion.
While #GG actively crosses over with /pol/ topics by its very nature, its good for our brand of discussion to have a presence, but at the same time that presence is used as ammo to stir conflict between posters, slide threads, and poison relations with #GG (mainly those unfamiliar with /pol/).
We long ago agreed that #GG needs to win on its own terms and multiple forces are interested in using #GG to push their own agenda. Shills spout the narrative that /pol/ wants to use #GG for its own agenda. The more vocal they are, the more frustrated posters they make, the more likely they will believe anti-/pol/ shills as long as it makes /pol/ go away. Some may have even resigned to this out of ignorance and annoyance.
Shills want posters to be so tired of /pol/ and they do this by fabricating complaints. This is not a new tactic, but it has seen a resurgence which is why awareness for this issue is important. Their end goal is to have users complaining about /pol/ on their own and become useful idiots. This will enable them to dismiss certain issues as /pol/ related and people agreeing.
In some ways, the obscurity of this board is the reason why those shills haven't advocated for topics to be taken to /pgg/.

1.If someone found some leads to something shady. (Such as the anon who posted the FemFreq stuff.). But couldn't put it all together due time restraints or just sucking at it, would this be the board to post the lead to hopefully get someone to help follow verify it?
Just asking, because anytime something like get's posted on /gg/ the hype get's too hype.

How can we help casuals and people who don't want to know about this stuff, because it's a lot to take in and some people are afraid. Afraid for their public image, afraid for how their friends and families will view them.
These Cultural Marxists are able to silence opposition simply by slandering them with names like racist, sexist, misogyinist, transphobic, homophobic, ableist, and any other sort of -ist they can come up with. They'll cherry-pick certain examples and use confirmation bias to misrepresent their oppostion. They'll fabricate evidence where none exists or destroy evidence where it does.
I think the easiest way to fight the fear is with numbers. Show people they aren't alone. Also, if we work on our own images, casuals won't fear being associated with "basement-dwelling neckbeards".

The new gatekeepers: The occupational ideology
of game journalism
By David B. Nieborg and Tanja Sihvonen
>"“game journalism” appears as a rather
difficult pairing of words. It is accused of having problems
pertaining to its contents and form, its organisational
structure, as well as its ethics"
le ebic ethics me me lel.
>"journalists do not aim to work as
watchdogs of the establishment, but rather as mediators of
the value statements that deliver game capital."
Journalists are mouthpieces for publishers, mot watchdogs, and they know it.
"Favourable game reviews, then, might have a influence
effect for smaller indie games and less marketed titles."
If they push indie games, they become more then AAA shills, they're right for the little guy, see?
>"New Games Journalism (NGJ) is a derivative of “New
Journalism” applied to game journalism, and its focus is not
on the critical review of games but rather on the reflection
on the subjective experiences of the person playing the
game. In NGJ, contextual information, references to other
media, creative writing, and personal anecdotes are used to
explore game design and play. The term was coined by
Gillen in 2004 in a NGJ manifesto that was first published
on the state website."
See more on this later.
"Gamers hold power over game magazines by voting with
their purchasing preferences. If they do not provide the
necessary "eyeballs" to be sold to advertisers (or do not take
a subscription to a print magazine), there will be no
audiences to be sold."
Which is exactly what's happening.
So. game journos are shills, are aware they're shills, and also have lofty aspirations, leading them to promote indie games and, eventually, a social justice agenda.
Nothing we didn't know before, but still interesting.

The New Games Journalism
By Kieron Gillen
>"When things are bad, it’s a war between money-men who want to keep profits by reducing costs and the editorial who want to keep profits by being better."
Eat the rich class war now? Lot's of (probably justified) cynicism about business in here, and I'm sure we can all guess this guy's politics.
>"This journalism was intensely personal, throwing away the rules of standard journalistic discourse like the pretence of objectivity and an embracing of the “I”."
"Facts aren't truth", "Objectivity is a false god".
>"New Games Journalism exists to try and explain and transfer the sensations allowed by videogaming to anyone who’s willing to sit and take time to read it. It paradoxically manages find a way to be more accessible to the average human being by actually concentrating on the real reasons why people devote huge chunks of their waking hours to games rather than obsessing in tedious detail over the ephemera that surrounds it (How many levels? how many guns?

The new gatekeepers: The occupational ideology
of game journalism
By David B. Nieborg and Tanja Sihvonen
>"“game journalism” appears as a rather
difficult pairing of words. It is accused of having problems
pertaining to its contents and form, its organisational
structure, as well as its ethics"
le ebic ethics me me lel.
>"journalists do not aim to work as
watchdogs of the establishment, but rather as mediators of
the value statements that deliver game capital."
Journalists are mouthpieces for publishers, mot watchdogs, and they know it.
"Favourable game reviews, then, might have a influence
effect for smaller indie games and less marketed titles."
If they push indie games, they become more then AAA shills, they're right for the little guy, see?
>"New Games Journalism (NGJ) is a derivative of “New
Journalism” applied to game journalism, and its focus is not
on the critical review of games but rather on the reflection
on the subjective experiences of the person playing the
game. In NGJ, contextual information, references to other
media, creative writing, and personal anecdotes are used to
explore game design and play. The term was coined by
Gillen in 2004 in a NGJ manifesto that was first published
on the state website."
See more on this later.
"Gamers hold power over game magazines by voting with
their purchasing preferences. If they do not provide the
necessary "eyeballs" to be sold to advertisers (or do not take
a subscription to a print magazine), there will be no
audiences to be sold."
Which is exactly what's happening.
So. game journos are shills, are aware they're shills, and also have lofty aspirations, leading them to promote indie games and, eventually, a social justice agenda.
Nothing we didn't know before, but still interesting.

The New Games Journalism
By Kieron Gillen
>"When things are bad, it’s a war between money-men who want to keep profits by reducing costs and the editorial who want to keep profits by being better."
Eat the rich class war now? Lot's of (probably justified) cynicism about business in here, and I'm sure we can all guess this guy's politics.
>"This journalism was intensely personal, throwing away the rules of standard journalistic discourse like the pretence of objectivity and an embracing of the “I”."
"Facts aren't truth", "Objectivity is a false god".
>"New Games Journalism exists to try and explain and transfer the sensations allowed by videogaming to anyone who’s willing to sit and take time to read it. It paradoxically manages find a way to be more accessible to the average human being by actually concentrating on the real reasons why people devote huge chunks of their waking hours to games rather than obsessing in tedious detail over the ephemera that surrounds it (How many levels? how many guns? Can I be Goro?). It asks the question “Why game anyway” and then gives as many answers as they are people, as interesting as people, as precious."
Person experience/subjectivity can obviously be a power force in journalism, but to mistake it for a replacement for facts is dangerous. What he's really saying it that most game's journalists would rather be writing fiction, which is what must be why he does comics now instead of writing for RPS.

GG is going nowhere soon. We must keep sending emails and creating pro-GG strongholds in places like Twitter, Reddit, and Tumblr.
But the fight doesnt end with GG nor did it really begin with game journalism. The true enemy here is the feminist movements march to reform various institutions and sub cultures in the Western world to conform to their theory of the patriarchal oppression of women. GG is a single battle in a war that will last decades.
This is in no way to understate the importance of our fight. For to lose here will push the enemy closer to victory. But we can not either be narrow minding about our vectors of attack. Theres only so many emails we can send and twitter/tumblr post to make. We should keep pushing on these fronts but consider opening one that will put the feminist on a major defensive.
Infighting has been erupting between feminist and other women. If our long term goals are and I feel should be to stop the ideology at the Source of GG we should work on ways to spread the divide between feminist and other women.
I suggest a new operation. OP: Western Front. We can push the divide by retweets, follows, favorites, reblogs, etc. Of women who oppose feminism. An easy target for this will be "Women Against Feminism" its already got name recognition and a support base. If GG can focus its efforts to prop up this divide and redpill more women we can make a serious long term victory thats hits the very core of whats causing GG to begin with.

Some of you may be familiar with Strauss–Howe generational theory.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strauss%E2%80%93Howe_generational_theory
We go through recurring cycles of generations, empires rise and fall.
Now take a look at r/K selection theory applied to politics.
http://www.anonymousconservative.com/blog/the-theory/rk-selection-theory/
Convervatives are adapted to competition in a resource scarce environment, and liberals are adapted to reproduce as early as possible, in a resource abundant environment.
What does this have to do with Gamergate?
I'd like to apply these principles to SJW colonisation of video games. Video games are a competitive, K-selected activity, and SJW are subverting it, seemingly unable to comprehend competition, free markets and our arguments themselves. This controversy is a symptom of a larger "fourth turning", a collapse of civilisation.
I think this information may be a decent primer for how to fight liberal subversion.
They do not care about our concerns of journalists breaking the rules in the free market, because liberals cannot compete in a free market. Our logic will not penetrate their damaged brains and we need effective strategies.
We can set an example here so that others see SJWs for the destructive retards they are.

Consider instead that perhaps what you would really prefer is a technical review rather than (or along side) a critical review.
This is a valid position since games are a technology product and can be examined somewhat objectively on those merits.
- Are the graphics polished? (not 'do I like the art style?')
- Is the sound mix balanced? (not 'do I like the soundtrack?')
- Do the game play systems work as intended? (not 'do I like the game play?')
etc…
food for thought anyway

Consider not using the terms "objective" and "subjective". It really throws people off since there really is no such thing as an objective review.Consider instead that perhaps what you would really prefer is a technical review rather than (or along side) a critical review.

My understanding of DiGRA -
While their heads are all feminists and possible ideologues, there are people there at least attempting actual video game research. Why do they need Silverstring, though? Who wants them to have Silverstring? Is it a close union between ideologues all the way down to the media or is it a Ziegiest.
Silverstring - I have literally no idea what is up with these faggots outside of having the appearance of a fucking cult.
Media - Media wants to publish juicy stuff or have "a persuasive argument." Ideologue journalists seem to prefer certain topics and somehow think that not applying critical theory (cultural Marxism) makes them irrelevant, because hurrdurr hipster faggotry.
Help me piece the mechanics of this together, /ggpol/. We need to get Gamergate to stop agroing bystanders within these groups just because they think DiGRASILVERSTRINGKOTAKU is one person.

It's a well known fact that Chelsea is a pathological liar. Two accounts (of Gjoni and a girl who worked with Chelsea) depict her as a manipulative, lying and potentially dangerous whore. She's the childbirth of this victimisation narrative that permeates our culture. "You're oppressing her", "He din dun nuffin", "The Holocaust", etc.
She contradicts her own statements and behavior because she doesn't care, she doesn't have a consciousness, she doesn't have empathy, she only cares about herself.
And there are many like her. Many.
One day we'll have to put out foot on the ground and make the bullshit stop.

I'll repeat that:
GamerGate shouldn't care about PR.
Political Correctness is, precisely, the weapon of the enemy. If you fall into its trappings, you're playing their game. And we don't want to do that, do we?
We shouldn't care what people that are neutral or against us think of the movement. Most of them are NOT honest people. They don't want a reasonable debate, they want blood for their blood god.
When we free ourselves from such… vanity, we will be way more effective. We will strike with precision and force.
Keep it legal. Let us fight the good fight.
