Needs to start at Lowtax banning hentai from Something Awful.
I don’t know the connection to that. First incident I know of Gamergate was the Zoë Quinn pile-on.
4chan organized a lot of brigading and the early rough memes (u mad bro?) that became gamergate and spawned many anti-SJW superstars.
It has taken a hard right turn from the days of operation chanology.
Hentai getting banned on SA is what caused Moot to found 4chan.
This is impossible to 100% confirm or deny with solid evidence at this point but uh…
Good chance it wasn’t just hentai.
It was loli. Drawn CSAM.
Crazy how it’s all connected…
The world is far smaller and far dumber than any of us ever thought back when we were young
well at least it’s dumb in a predictable way once you understand the rules :)
I will wait for the emulator and then I will acquire my legally purchased games, no one will make me pay $80 for a game
Wait Im out of the loop, what are the in-between correlations?
Gamergate was a 2014 campaign to “get politics [women and minorities] out of video games” and is thought to have helped create the ongoing “culture war” in the US as far right leaders learned to use the same rhetoric.
