He probably posted a we wuz kangs meme because it’s totally racist and not a mockery of the blatant black washing of history like with the new “cleopatra”
True. But it has moved beyond parody at this point. My aunt sent me something that said the original Chinese were black. I love my aunt so I didn’t bother to argue with her.
My moms the same way with Trump, the second I show the falsehoods of her claims she goes “well all politicians are corrupt” then goes back to watching NBC News, 60 minutes, and reading CNN. The legacy media generation were the hardest indoctrinated of any generation.
I played the Total War game, and let me tell you. I really need people to be named Jim and Bob. Cao Cao is easy enough to remember, but the other ones all blend together to my ears.
Gamergate was their 9-11. They can't let it go, the day their credibility and ego were smashed. Now they just uncritically shovel press releases from the corrupted institutions.
Remember the Nashville shooter? That was 3 weeks ago. Where is the manifesto? Maybe there's still time for Jack to become Jill and become a martyr before they go all out with the incel gamer narrative?
But one thing he was not, insisted a 17-year-old online friend calling himself Vakhi, was a whistleblower in the mould of Manning or National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden, who claimed to be exposing government wrongdoing. ‘This guy was a Christian, anti-war, just wanted to inform some of his friends about what’s going on,’ he told The New York Times.
Great reporting from the Mail as usual. Making something up in the first sentence and backing it up with an unrelated quote in the second. Serving the narrative effortlessly.
If you're not on a watchlist... You should probably be on a watchlist. Because NOT being on one takes serious effort on concealment and disguising yourself, or being so many piles of red flags in the real world that you should probably be watched.
Honestly though, everything you've described is a threat to national security. I don't know if people quite understand this but our government, IE. the nation for which "national" security is a concern is extremely anti-white male. Anyone who has any semblance of a desire for individual liberty and excellence is a threat to national security. White men have an innate drive toward these two core values so the white men that feel the oppression within western society often become loners who play video games and have issues with the government. They become national security concerns because they aren't obedient slaves that cause 0 disruptions, which is what the government desires.
You shouldn't act like the government and media are painting a disingenuous narrative because they aren't. They are specifically targeting a group of people that do in fact pose a threat to the government's control of society.
The issue is that most people don't realize how evil their government actually is so they think there's some sort of misconception or deception going on with regards to the government's position. The government isn't getting anything wrong. They know precisely who their enemies are and that's young white men that are dissatisfied with the system. This is highly correlated to video gamers who are loners and feel alienated by their society. This "nation" is in fact the enemy so of course its security interests are going to point to good men as being the threat. A lot of men just haven't woken up to the fact yet that they are in fact the government's enemy. The government doesn't exist to do what's in your interests. It exists to control you in order to promote the government's interests which is opposed to your own.
I won't argue about the anti white male. I'd like to add straight. The straight white man is an endangered species. BUT, I'd like to argue that it's the quality of education. Look at Yale, and Stanford. No one with degrees from there is desirable publicly. That used to be an unkempt secret.
Well yeah, when the education facilities are nothing but indoctirnation facilities for your enemies... That tends to be a problem. I believe it was Hitler who said give me control of the textbooks and I'll have control of the whole society.
Your comment made me so mad! Everyone hates the textbook makers because of the prices, and the games they play with new editions. We already know there's a problem. But, it magically disappears when those same companies make schoolbooks for kids before college?!
It's not the schoolbooks. It's all of Hollywood, all of journalism, all of science, all of academia, and the school books. Every piece of content in the western world is gatekept to promote the problem.
It's really just the framing. GG is always described in a way that attributes its animus to its pro-GG participants, but what actually gave it life was the leftist meltdown, and the truths it revealed. GG wasn't "at fault" for the rightward shift, it's what we call the rightward shift, and that shift was the only sensible move under the circumstances.
Their narratives are getting more obvious and crumbling faster though. No-one believes some random low level guardsman had access to top secret documents and this little blame shift won't be the end of it.
Actually I find that completely believable given what I've seen over the course of my career. You need to divest yourself of your Hollywood notions of how classified environments and information are handled. Kid works in an intelligence agency and is in a few Active Directory groups that are used to give access to some network shares and because doing security at a proper granular level and adhering to principles of least privilege is actually pretty demanding from a logistical standpoint...well the long and short of it is that no one wants to manage hundreds of AD groups and it's impractical to do so, so you get shoved in a few groups that have more permissions than they probably ought to and if you're curious you can just go exploring the share drive and find stuff that isn't explicitly necessary for you to do your job.
I've seen it play out over and over again. This shit is so mundane and normal but everyone's got this fantasy image about how classified information gets handled because you've all been watching spy movies instead of working in the industry.
Take it up with an intelligence officer, Rambo. Either way someone far above the level of this private is responsible and they're trying to save face with the standard white man bad shtick.
You believe what a CIA spook says on the mainstream media circuit? Are you retarded? Dude was in the military which usually warrants some level of clearance. This spook says it takes years to get. Ok let's roll with that assumption. They also said this kid didn't go to college, so I'll assume he joined the Guard right after high school. That's 3 years, plenty of time to get base level of Secret clearance (which isn't actually all that hard). He gets put on the intelligence project and then probably lands an interim TS, at which point they're fine to read him on for the SCI. The fact that he's with the military and young means his background check doesn't take all that long, doubly so if the kid led a relatively boring life and didn't get into trouble with the law or travel overseas.
Again, it is entirely believable that this kid had access to top secret documents.
If the kid was called up to work a mission or target tangential to or actually involved in the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, it's very believable he could have reached beyond his scope without immediate notice
Of course they're running Windows. My god. Is everyone retarded? You think the government employs nothing but Linux gurus? No. All the intelligence analysts are gormless normies who wouldn't know what to do with a bash shell if you clubbed them over the head with it. It's Windows and Active Directory all the way down. The only time you're dealing with a Linux file system is if you're part of IT dealing with the back end infrastructure.
Seeing as some of the biggest names in AI imaging use Discord I wouldn't call it a gamer thing at all. Heck, conventions use them to keep the volunteers and above in the know on what is happening.
I also thought it was weird that they were so determined to pigeonhole Discord. I guess your explanation that they're trying to demonize it makes sense.
What “Racist” memes? Obsessed with God? As opposed to obsessed with drag queens and teaching kids about sex? They tie every bad thing to gaming

True. But it has moved beyond parody at this point. My aunt sent me something that said the original Chinese were black. I love my aunt so I didn’t bother to argue with her.
You should argue with her because you love her. It means you give a damn about her mental state.
Nah that’s been done enough. She is too far gone so at this point she will just dig in her heels. We tried
My moms the same way with Trump, the second I show the falsehoods of her claims she goes “well all politicians are corrupt” then goes back to watching NBC News, 60 minutes, and reading CNN. The legacy media generation were the hardest indoctrinated of any generation.
Yea I have cousins like that. My mom is hardcore MAGA
i wish my mom was like that, instead she's a loyally programmed msnpc :(
I learned about the three kingdoms from playing Dynasty Warriors. In the second game they had an encyclopedia and one day I just sat there and read it
I played the Total War game, and let me tell you. I really need people to be named Jim and Bob. Cao Cao is easy enough to remember, but the other ones all blend together to my ears.
I just told myself I’m having a learning experience lol
Gamergate was their 9-11. They can't let it go, the day their credibility and ego were smashed. Now they just uncritically shovel press releases from the corrupted institutions.
Remember when Assange addressed gamergate directly? He said literally all journalism is just as bad as video game journalism.
He’s doing well, eh?
Remember the Nashville shooter? That was 3 weeks ago. Where is the manifesto? Maybe there's still time for Jack to become Jill and become a martyr before they go all out with the incel gamer narrative?
Great reporting from the Mail as usual. Making something up in the first sentence and backing it up with an unrelated quote in the second. Serving the narrative effortlessly.
Yeah I'm mad that he/she/whatever failed to post it before becoming an hero.
We're probably being observed already in all honesty
If you're not on a watchlist... You should probably be on a watchlist. Because NOT being on one takes serious effort on concealment and disguising yourself, or being so many piles of red flags in the real world that you should probably be watched.
China declares playing too much vidya anti-social behavior. Probably the same here.
The ADL started attacking gaming platforms this week, too.
War it is then.
Imagine one issue that could unite the entirety of young, disillusioned men in the West...

The government and the nation are hardly synonymous. Otherwise you're pretty spot on.
Very well said.
Small element of truth. If not for Gamergate, I'd probably still be a moderate progressive.
It's really just the framing. GG is always described in a way that attributes its animus to its pro-GG participants, but what actually gave it life was the leftist meltdown, and the truths it revealed. GG wasn't "at fault" for the rightward shift, it's what we call the rightward shift, and that shift was the only sensible move under the circumstances.
Gamers truely are an opressed minority!
Not sure if this was sarcasm, but gamers quite literally have no allies outside of their demographic. No one is on their side.
Their narratives are getting more obvious and crumbling faster though. No-one believes some random low level guardsman had access to top secret documents and this little blame shift won't be the end of it.

I mean, it is trivially easy in any Unix environment, to grant per file access to a virtually unlimited number of users.
The indecision for me is that I could definitely beleive that the CIA is running Windows...
Of course they're running Windows. My god. Is everyone retarded? You think the government employs nothing but Linux gurus? No. All the intelligence analysts are gormless normies who wouldn't know what to do with a bash shell if you clubbed them over the head with it. It's Windows and Active Directory all the way down.

my mom actually asked me if i "went on steam" last night.
🤦♂️
I also thought it was weird that they were so determined to pigeonhole Discord. I guess your explanation that they're trying to demonize it makes sense.
Its the rooskies gaiz
Reminds me, I need to hurry up and get a gun.
