GamerGate is about harassing, threatening and silencing women. Started that way, has been that way all along. Don't pretend otherwise.

      @scalzi So it didnt start with collusion and cheating to get a game an award, it started with someone hating a woman?

      @prstskrzkrk @scalzi Devs being friends with media, getting reviews based on friendship rather than quality. Every gaming site does it.

      @jlsurge @scalzi finally, how does it feel to be part of a 'movement' which necessitates you stating 'Any attacks on women are deplorable'?

      @scalzi No, it's about rejecting a PC regulation of the market. Wanna change games? CREATE different games and see if the market wants it.

      @scalzi I was raised to defend the powerless against the powerful. The current power structure in society is on the anti GG side

      @GRIMACHU "False" here meaning "Absolutely accurate and well-documented," I see. What an intriguing new definition of the word! @clownfall
