Molly Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Great piece, Dubs. I knew someone on the site would eventually touch on this stupid fucking mess, and I'm glad it was you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slothian Posted November 13, 2014 Report Share Posted November 13, 2014 I had managed to steer clear of Gamergate for the large part, only being aware that something very controversial was going on the games industry (I'm in one of my disengaged phases with regards to what's going on in gaming). So I appreciate the synopsis given, let alone the clarity of thought this article conveys. Frankly, I don't have the words for what Gamergate is, other than it sounds truly abhorrent.

Rjoyadet Posted November 17, 2014 Report Share Posted November 17, 2014 agreed, I was never aware of the sexism until my coworker mentioned all the harassment she experienced on Xbox live. I would not be surprised if this becomes a chapter in her Dissertation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
