GamerGate success! Intel pulls ads from SJW-influenced website!

clutch_guy · 2014-10-03T18:10:02+00:00

Intel knows who its real clients are and they are not SJWS with their macs who wouldn't know whats running their machine. No, their rabid clients on gaming websites are men from the age of 10 onwards and you don't want to piss off your clients for some PC SJW bullshit

averageredpill · 2014-10-03T18:12:50+00:00

Intel has legitimized a movement that has shown itself to be anti-feminist, violently protectionist, and totally unwilling to share what it sees as its divine right to video games.

Yes because trying to change the videogame industry to fit your narrative and calling it equality, that's not even remotely violently protectionist and anti-gamer. /s

This god damn retards should STOP with this censuring pressure, people want to play games they like, being it killing a bagillion nubs in BF4 or building an entire city in Simcity without being told that what they do is wrong, sexist and misogyny.

I propose #BanShades because those erotic books are demeaning to men and is a irrealistic version of how a relationship should be and how sex and erotism are.

fortifiedoranges · 2014-10-03T18:16:21+00:00

That article was written by someone with no idea why people were actually upset. Good on Intel for not bending over.

I'm fucking loving these delicious butthurt shitlib SJW tears

mctoasterson · 2014-10-03T19:23:38+00:00

The fact is a core constituency of gamers were mad because they don't want every single facet of their lives turned into some bullshit political cause. Whereas the SJW cannot participate in any activity without trying to politicize and "reform" it. It is a mental disorder on their part.

If certain individuals want to try and build an ultra-feminist "voice" in gaming, they should make their own fucking games and let the market decide. Oh wait, that's not what they're doing - because it's easier just to bitch and whine on the internet and then claim "oppression" when others don't want to listen to it.

punis1 · 2014-10-03T19:22:03+00:00

What is with the trend of organizations (Gamasutra in this case, ESPN being another example) shitting on their target market?

SJWs are never going to be a big source of revenue. The fact that they have the time to sit around and bitch all day is indication alone that as a group they do not have much money.

anonlymouse · 2014-10-03T18:42:44+00:00

Should have been an archive.today link - when in doubt look at the tone and the content.

ShinyBrah · 2015-01-05T01:17:04+00:00

SJWs need to get out of gaming. You know why so many gamers are men? Most of them saw gaming as the only way to belong because they were tired of being bullied and looked down because they were quiet or not alpha enough. They have the audacity to call us bad people when most of us just wanted to belong.

MarcusDavidson · 2014-10-03T19:03:28+00:00

That's fucking hilarious. Maybe someone should start a subreddit dedicated entirely to organizing people to email advertisers who support SJW bullshit. Kick em while they're down.

Idle_Redditing · 2014-10-03T18:38:29+00:00

Has the backlash against this Anita Sarkeesian bullshit finally reached the top?

EDIT: Should have said Anita Sarkeesian-type bullshit.

armenia4ever · 2014-10-03T19:25:18+00:00

It's incredible to see what passes for journalism these days. Seriously, what is this shit?

AFPJ · 2014-10-03T19:27:35+00:00

The only reason gaming communities - much like RP, 4Chan, IRC & deepnet - still exist is because a headless snake without eyes can't be turned to stone by the PC SJW Medusa. All while anyone who wishes to voice dissent or try stirring up chaos in them has to oust their real identity and stands a very real risk of having their life ruined.

Can't be a pity whore or victim princess when the community you're trying to do it in is aware of TITS or GTFO with all of their identities anonymous and therefore immune to being publicly shamed into compliance. Femjustice knights suddenly unwilling to proceed now that the crusade they're on has a potential risk to them? Color me surprised.

LineOfCoke · 2014-10-03T19:12:48+00:00

Yeah, playing angry birds or flappy bird or Farmville doesn't make you a gamer. Also owning a console and a few platformers you play every now and then when you find time, is not the Sam as being a gamer.

Snoctopus · 2014-10-03T21:13:28+00:00

The tone and title of the article you linked have so much spin it I couldn't even finish reading it. I guess you should expect as much when a SJW is the one "reporting" the issues that are being experienced by... Another SJW

jsl2837 · 2014-10-04T00:07:40+00:00

What is this?

iamnotfromtexas90 · 2014-10-04T00:08:15+00:00

God, but even The Verge seems to be biased to SJW. Just the headline seems pro-SJW. Intel buckles to anti-feminist campaign by pulling ads from gaming site. They paint a pictures of brutes attacking poor, meek women who then forced Intel to stop supporting women and children. The actual article only proves my point. The author seems to be knowledgeable concerning the entire #GamerGate situation, bitter, and legitimately upset that anyone could ever think to not bow down to their oh-so perfect and god given 'liberal ideals.'

Flytape · 2014-10-04T09:33:57+00:00

Intel has legitimized a movement that has shown itself to be anti-feminist, violently protectionist...

Violently protectionist?

Get the fuck out of here feminists. Pulling an ad is hardly 'violent protectionism' its call a boycott. They are boycotting your stupid shit because its a grand waste of everyone's time.

They violently pulled advertising and cost us money! This is literally a holocaust!

morph85 · 2014-10-04T01:23:32+00:00

The article was written by this chick https://pbs.twimg.com/profile_images/378800000511103484/7c3f2db917f442fc24fec47e6ba252eb_400x400.png

| "The #GamerGate hashtag is inextricably linked to campaigns of harassment and its proponents have been demonstrably manipulated by a small number of people who want to hurt others for fun. Until now it has had no major successes, but by giving in to its demands and pulling its advertising from Gamasutra, Intel has legitimized a movement that has shown itself to be anti-feminist, violently protectionist, and totally unwilling to share what it sees as its divine right to video games."

Cry me a river, bitch. Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if he did cry a bit.

we_r_legun1993 · 2014-10-03T19:05:29+00:00

Seriously, is there any reason NOT to like Intel?

Sufferix · 2014-10-04T10:06:21+00:00

How does Verge link to it's own article as a source, about something that people have proven is false (Anita didn't receive threats or if she did, she didn't report them to the authorities).

Journalism at it's finest.

dreckmal · 2014-10-03T20:03:44+00:00

This article is terrible, and only highlights the fucking problem with the whole shit-show that 'gaming' journalism is. It would be nice if there was proof one way or the other about whether either of the chicks (Quinn or Sarkeesian) received actual death threats.

The article doesn't discuss the ethical question that are still up in the air. I am going to go back to pre-interent gaming mode, where I hear about games from buddies, and then I play those games. Fuck the journalists, fuck the SJWs, and frankly, fuck just about every body else.

Azothlike · 2014-10-03T20:29:32+00:00

Really, I get the feeling this whole nonsense started because of the ESA's massively misleading survey, that was designed to paint women as equal/larger portion of the video game demographic.

Be-The-Change · 2014-10-04T10:47:42+00:00

It is worth noting that it hasn't just been Gamasutra folding to the SJW Agenda. This has been a concentrated effort over the last 7+ years headed by academic feminists (from an association called DiGRA) to invade and contort the video game industry. I suggest checking out /r/kotakuinaction, www.8chan.co/gg/, and the youtube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWB0dvorHvkQlgfGGJR2yxQ if you're any kind of a gamer and would like to know more.

grateday · 2014-10-03T22:18:47+00:00

Amazing. His them in the pocket and watch them panic.

aa223 · 2014-10-04T02:27:47+00:00

This is an admirable start, but we need to keep going and ride the momentum. We need to show these advertisers who holds the power here. Once we are done securing our video game base then it is back to business as usual. Preferably we should counter-attack from multiple fronts and remember that we won't take any bullshit that comes our way.

mechakingghidorah · 2014-10-04T03:38:49+00:00

I'm glad men are finally uniting and sticking up against this kind of thing.

MrPeachy · 2014-10-04T05:56:46+00:00

This 'the verge' website suddenly started spewing feminist propaganda from one moment to the other. This is not the first time I see them doing this sort of thing.

It's a shame, I really liked the site before. With Gizmodo being another piece of shit I think I'm left with engadget.

sevenStarsFall · 2014-10-04T04:29:40+00:00

Just remember every time you link to a story like this, you are giving the author money.

You could have copy-and-pasted it, or just summarized it for exactly the same informative value, but without giving this pus bag money.

JablesRadio · 2014-10-04T05:14:05+00:00

You can pretty much thank 4chan, notably /v/, for this.

FrozenTomatoEater · 2014-10-04T12:45:45+00:00

GamerGate is about ending censorship, corruption and collusion in gaming journalism. And SJWs are at the heart of all of it. They've already resorted to dirty tactics such as posting personal information of GameGaters.

QQ_L2P · 2014-10-04T13:09:58+00:00

Why is this linked directly to the site? You're giving them clicks.

EscortVoyeurAdmin · 2014-10-04T02:11:50+00:00

This doesn't really have anything to do with feminism or SJWs as much as the SJWs wish it did.

Gamers are a major market for Intel's highest-priced, highest-margin single-socket CPUs. A website published an article denigrating these gamers lined up to buy new releases: "Television cameras pan across these listless queues, and often catch the expressions of people who don’t quite know why they themselves are standing there." Of course Intel is going to pull advertising.

It's the same thing that Nike would do to a website that published an article talking about people lined up for limited-edition sneakers: "Television cameras pan across these listless queues, and often catch the expressions of people who don’t quite know why they themselves are standing there." Nike's advertising would all be gone by the next morning.

Frankly, I think lining up for video games is moronic. I think lining up for limited-edition sneakers is moronic too. But I'm not asking Intel or Nike to give me Reddit Gold.

TehRedBirdCall · 2014-10-03T23:06:34+00:00

What are these videos everyone is talking about? I've never seen them. What is Gamergate? Are they Pro Red Pill or against?

deville05 · 2014-10-03T20:39:25+00:00

Explain it to me like im a 5yr old

2014-10-04T16:40:15+00:00

How come males haven't organized to ban the stuff females like?

We can't even get proper divorce rights.

idontwantaredditacct · 2014-10-04T05:41:38+00:00

why care about this crap? videogames suck shit nowadays and videogames 'journalism' has always been clever marketing

justmanthings · 2014-10-03T18:23:47+00:00

this has got to be one of the silliest things tons of people are extremely serious about.

2014-10-04T07:37:26+00:00

If you really care about this shit then you still have a lot to learn.
