tinyE: I had an SJW on rye with a pickle for lunch.

Gnostic: Is that delicious?
The rye was a little stale.

LeonardoCornejo: We should really fight back. As in really fighting back, not on the internet but in real life. If they can go to the UN to request censorship of the media there should be a way to go to a public group requesting free speech. If they can actively threaten developers to not release games, we should activelly encourage them to do so. Maybe even starting a foundation dedicated to gathering money to do so. I mean, I amm pretty much sure devs are more interested in earning millions than dealing with this fanatics. So meybe if they got money only for releasing the game they would be more encouraged. I am talking about a charity dedicated to the release of games. And if they can make stupid Change.org petitions to ruin others we can make counter petitions to fix their harm. We must fight back, without violence, but relentlessly. We must defend those they attack, not only in gaming, but in all topics. Including that cracker dressed in a kimono, the negro who said "all lives matter", the N guy who said negro on TV, the foodie who was bervally harassed for loving Indian cuisine, the bakery which was ruined for refusing to bake a cake with a pro gay messae in it. All those people deserve to be defended from censorship.

Gnostic: Well, if we can start a crowdfunding that reach the level of star citizen, that can be done.

But it requires SJW to hurt gamers long and hard enough like how publisher hurt PC and space sim fans......
Haven't they hurt us enough already? Their crappy games (Depression Quest comes to mind) and censorship are creating the environment for another big video game crash in the West. I think that is enough. And the slander campaign too.

Maybe you want to use this rye pickle instead.

That can't be possible, they are triggered by rye, pickles and lunch.

Yes, but I don't know if they hurt us enough to propels us to crowdfund to a level of Star Citizen.

Anyone interested to try? It will be spectacular if we manage to pull that off.

Maybe we could focus our next opperation on that. Like when we donated to combat hunger and diseases. And I know a free game based on donations which seems to be in desperate need for them right now. Not only that, it is from a respectable dev company. Cyan Inc.

You mean this Cyan which develops Myst? I don't see their donation drive.

Ryan is this the "growing up" you were talking about, scaring companies away?
They weren't scared away, they made a business decision. In fact here was what they had to say in the comments of there Facebook post:
"Do you know many issues happening in video game industry with regard to how to treat female in video game industry? We do not want to talk those things here. But certainly we have gone through in last year or two to come to our decision. Thank you."
Even than if there is a large enough backlash I'm pretty sure it'll be made available to the states.

So you do not understand that the "cultural Authoritarian" side is toxic to this culture & industry?

It's sad to see the word Authoritarian become a buzzword devoid of it's original meaning. Also there is nothing wrong with a game-studio being reflective about what it makes.

What is sad is to see the word JUSTICE in such a bunch of GARBAGE movement, capable of make a SCIENTIST CRY for a TSHIRT among other great ACHIEVEMENTS in Justice like threaten developers and blackmailing companies with political correctness

According to the almighty narrative, Jenn Frank was forced out of game writing (though she technically quit of her own volition). I don't suppose you'd be willing to view that, too, as nothing more than a business decision and similarly disregard the underlying reasons for said decision?

Either pressure can force people to act a certain way or it can't. You don't get to have it both ways.

Well, they do need donations for their online version of URU. Right now it is runnin on reserve funds. If we could convince gamers in general to donate to game devs without expecting much in exchange as they did for charities we could show the devs who is on their side.

Linking to the Daily Mail doesn't help your argument. If anything it makes me take your arguments less seriously.
