ScotchMonkey: The perpetually offended are an untapped energy source. I expect we could find a way to capture the hot air and bullshit whilst refining it into some kind of methane / turbine system to power the West Coast. At least then they would be contributing in a positive way.
new concept for a game universe

its set in a steampunk universe where all is powered by something called Flame. Not to long after its discovery, some people start doing all kinds of controversial shit, causing one hatestorm after the other. It turns out Flame is actually bottled rage and hot air from the SJW and the ones causing the shitstorm were the inventors of Flame.

MaGo72: Basically no one knew Wu before she injected herself into the discussion through her Twitter jokes about gamers and the following alleged harassment and hate by GG, which has not been proven.
Wu is a nobody who jumped on the bandwagon to make a profit and that's disgusting. I mean, just look at Revolution 60, no one in their right mind would buy that shit. That thing must be part of some money laundering process or something.

But since you mentioned InternetAristocrat, here is an interesting video:

Let's be very clear. The issues with gaming 'journalism' and their ideological root causes are obviously much broader than just gaming and many saw it coming. The antiGG crowd does a lot of careful positioning to distract from that elephant. They're often very successfull, because such bad faith is quite aggravating to those being targeted. Funnily enough, I'd say the ostracism threat (well... it's reality even) is not something the most vocal GG folks care about outwardly, in a very 'aspie' way the truth is more important.

Anyway back OT, or kind of ;) looking at any political journalism shows numerous examples of how objectivity is hindered by mission journalism (afflict comfortable, comfort afflicted). Specifically on entertainment, there's likewise numerous areas where SJWs have over the past 10 to 5 years carried their march through the institutions, from comics, via toys like Lego, to SciFi (this latest is just in the news even due some effective pushback). More specifically on gaming, videogames are more susceptible to such influences - cos video, therefore narrative - yet I've noticed an increasing influence on boardgames, mostly very mild since thematic critique is rather the only accessible battleground there.
By the forces of S, J and W my internet is back! So hows everything hanging? Has any hipster raged on twitter and then left so they won't have to hear logic? What's been goin on?

If you notice something: all those examples are about nerd fields. A few years ago gaming was about to burst out of the nerd field into mainstream properly with the Wii and who was the most rabid haters of the Wii? Our friends the journalists of course. It's almost like they needed video games to remain a nerd field.

White male privilege? SHE refuses to ask the person who spilled her drink for an apology and that's privilege? The privilege is indeed strong with this one. And what shithead expects a senior citizen to be a spider monkey on an airplane? IMO the response she got was wufully inadequate. She is an ageist and geriatric anti-arborialist.

Well, I hate to fall back on technical details, but wouldn't Wu also be suffering from white male privilege? I mean, we're damn near certain it's not ovaries she's carrying around in her purse.

If she's going to criticize something while she at least on a technical one is the same thing as her bespoken opposition, then she should grab a ticket from the man hat and sit down with the rest of us boys as we cautiously approach the matriarchy and ask for permission to go outside and exhibit male social behavior with the opposite sex.

I'm so glad I don't use Twitter or Facebook. My blood pressure wouldn't allow it. I'd be dead by dawn from a massive coronary debating with these lunatics. It's nice to have good hobbies. They usually do a good job of keeping you away from crazy people.

Yeah I know but hey you gotta give credit where its due. Wu hated men so much that she stopped being one. That's dedication folks.

Must have had some dough too, I cant expect that procedure to come cheap. Its almost if she was privelaged enough that money was no object. Maybe she used the 200 grand that her parents gave her to start a business.

You cant argue with this level of batshit people, it must certainly be a ruse to get more attention ; )

Given what happened in that pizza joint in, was it Indiana? I guess I can hope our shining beacon on the hill noticed how the pendulum has swung too far. I expect polling had something to do with it. Afterall this is the man that was perfectly ok to prejudge that police officer some years back, leading to the memorable beer summit. Anyway, thanks Obama! ;)
