I'm convinced something like 99% of the games industry is just a money laundering or tax embezzlement at this point because of their reliance on ESG and DEI money and they needed legitimate players to cover it up and make their finances seem plausible. Which of course is the real reason that all these usual NPCs are mad at gamers because we won't accept the slop the way other industries have because we have taste and won't be pushed around by a bunch of normies.
money for game publishers and studios comes from venture capital and banks. venture capital is some seriously slimy and jewish, even more than the banks, if that's even possible.
the money is funneled into contractors and consultants - sweet baby and the like, but much, much more. possibly single individuals all the way up to massive NGOs or even foreign actors. unit 8200-controlled cutouts and such. then they can use this money to bride out politicians and run gayops on our population.
To extend on what Shill said, it's a government feed trough. You make magic mystery money at the magic mystery money machine, give it to a government agency, who gives it out as a grant. That grant money is administered by a friend of someone high up in the agency. (Look at what is happening to Edison Motors right now.)
Then whoever gets the grant spends it on things the agency approves of, sold by friends of the agency's leadership, installed by other friends. Those people give their patrons a slice (10% for the big guy), who invest it in real, tangible things.
So, you have multiple layers of contractors and administrators who have real, tangible things that were bought with proceeds from ex nihlo money creation. The average American makes $50k. The average government employee makes half again that.
Purely guess work at the moment, but given what we know about tech and how barely any of the employees there are qualified to mop the floors let alone write code at these companies it's likely another industry they've invaded for the sake of rewarding loyalists for their efforts to the regime.
Much like how you see literal paedophiles getting caught in the teaching sector and then being mysteriously moved to other places instead of being barred from the profession entirely as they should be you have these absolute low IQ morons being in positions and obviously having no idea what they're doing.
Money sources? The obvious one are the DEI and ESG grants, venture capital through funds like Blackrock or similar companies for the games industry. It seems they rely for their income most on these third party style sources then you have the third party contractor narrative writing types with the recent findings who take a slice of the money for themselves because they know the people receiving this and they want to spread it around to their friends in the press.
It stands to reason given that there's also intelligence agencies involved in all of this with their bullshit surveillance of gamers being trotted out to try and find fake incel and far right extremists there's going to be politicians involved which is probably going to be an even deeper rabbit hole we're going to go down soon enough.
This will probably end up kicking off GamerGate 3.0 because somebody has to be approving all of these ops against gamers as well as the government funds going towards games companies who pander.
Someone needs to make like a cliff notes version of this.
I have read and read and really don't understand the original gamer gate thing. And the sweet baby thing even more so. There never seems to be a genesis point. Or maybe it just one of those IYKYK and if you don't you don't.
It's out there but the leftists really do treat GamerGate like it's their 9/11 and the meme is real which is why they'll shut down any accurate accounting on big tech as soon as they find it.
Basically I think it's fair to point towards Zoe Quinn as patient zero of the whole thing her slut behaviour is what finally set everyone off when people realised she was fucking games journalists for positive reviews. The whole industry has proven to be covered in sleeze that matches Hollywood. Anita Sarkeesian came along fairly shortly after and she was part of the propaganda effort to make people believe GamerGate was just a harassment campaign that evil misogynistic gamers had organised against Zoe Quinn and her because they were women.
Had nothing to do with the level of corruption these people are all involved in /s Anita Sarkeesian seems to have largely taken the money and run now ( Quite literally because no one knows where the money she got for feminist frequency went, there was a kickstarter and it got a lot of funding ) Zoe Quinn or at least her circle still bubbles to the surface occasionally with this whole narrative writing debacle.
It's not just the fact that they're corrupt now anymore to the point they're as bad as Hollywood executives. They're also proving themselves to be massive shit heads of the highest order.
I also suspect that much of the ruling class has gotten high off their own supply, so to speak, of their own pseudointellectual bullshit. Modern Monetary Theory in particular is the biggest pseud fad right now for rich assholes trying to convince themselves that they're good people, and the tech sector is being run by people who somehow think that if they go full-Enron, but on a large enough scale, it will magically not end up like Enron.
The ruling class has always been susceptible to ridiculous intellectual fads, from Marxism to Keynesianism to the Laffer Curve, and the notion in MMT that you can achieve the financial equivalent of perpetual motion by just printing money fast enough and that we can just have these huge corporations going indefinitely without turning a profit is the latest trend. Unfortunately, like all the other really horrible ideas that rich morons have embraced, we're the ones who are gonna suffer the consequences of their hubris.
Right now our ruling class is even trying to gaslight us about inflation, as if they really think that if they can convince people to stop noticing inflation, it'll magically disappear. Probably because they've fallen for the fallacious notion that because money is a human invention, we can do whatever we want with it, and don't have to treat it like something that operates by its own rules. I'm genuinely terrified of what will happen when the charade finally collapses under the weight of its own self-deception, because the whole damn global economy is gonna fold like Enron.
Also yes. And furthermore the entire modern art community is also money laundering. We can lay the blame for that being invented on the Mafia and not the DNC, but they've certainly adopted and mastered the tactic.
It's part of the rest of the economy, and I'm glad you see it in an industry you're very familiar with. Once you look, you'll see the whole economy is fake. They divorced labor from money and will eventually pay for that.
Oh absolutely, I've done some minor studying in that but when I was younger I also learned how central banks and Keynesian economics worked. I just have a focus on the games industry because I'm trying to establish myself as legitimate competition and fill some massive gaps in the market left by all the fraud going on.
They got lucky with Instagram, only because another potential buyer (which might have been the company that started tiktok) couldn't raise enough funds at the time.
Holding business meetings in 'Metaverse'. That's what they were suggesting. All your confidential business information in the hands of Zuckerbucks. Whatever could go wrong.
Problem is, people invest in META indirectly through index funds/ETFs, especially everyone's favorite index, the S&P 500. 401(k)s and pensions don't pick and choose stock; they get auto-dumped into these funds and pump the market up higher.
Claiming to be big and that people have to buy your stock and then ripping off pension plans is a time honored tactic. I always try to explain to people that money doesn't work for big corpos the way it works for you and me. It's different when you have enough money to control things. These fund guarantee that somebody gets paid. I bet the house gets paid. But the investors can lose all or part of their investment.
I remember when people were putting effort into making beautiful worlds worth visiting for their billboards to get decent advertising in their Secondlife accounts thinking that this would be their big break.
My heart still goes out to them.
People are lost and need guidance in the form of a lamp in the distance, not someone to hold their hand and tell them how to get there.
Nothing against those folk but they are not the journey, just another part of it.
Think of Up* from Pixar to get a good semblance of well meaning achieving what it wants but being absolutely stupid while it is trying it.
*Lay off the Jew jokes for this one please, it's a great film regardless of your thoughts on all of that.
Tbf a few people like that Chinese women did make bank from selling "virtual land" in SecondLife. I don't fault others for trying to do the same at the time.
the issue is that it was only the speculators who made money, and a few avatar / animation creators. World costs (rent from world owners) goes to second life. There were a lot more creators than consumers there. A small group of players who spent money trying to make money on the masses that never came.
It also never really evolved. second life now is basically the same as the
'alpha' when it launched in the 90's, only now it is even harder to get into.
Remember some bitch was shaking when some avatars came up to her and air humped her? She claimed she was raped and they added bubbles around avatars to prevent this?? Lawl.
The definition of money laundering. Or perhaps vaporware.
I'm convinced something like 99% of the games industry is just a money laundering or tax embezzlement at this point because of their reliance on ESG and DEI money and they needed legitimate players to cover it up and make their finances seem plausible. Which of course is the real reason that all these usual NPCs are mad at gamers because we won't accept the slop the way other industries have because we have taste and won't be pushed around by a bunch of normies.
If it's all money laundering then where is the money coming from and where is it being funneled to and to what end?
Where does all money come from? It comes from the money printers.
Everyone from Blackrock to Sweet Baby Incorporated had a pile of government grants and sponsorships.
money for game publishers and studios comes from venture capital and banks. venture capital is some seriously slimy and jewish, even more than the banks, if that's even possible.
the money is funneled into contractors and consultants - sweet baby and the like, but much, much more. possibly single individuals all the way up to massive NGOs or even foreign actors. unit 8200-controlled cutouts and such. then they can use this money to bride out politicians and run gayops on our population.
TLDR stop buying games. stop paying for any and all media.
Sail the high seas instead

What was gamergate 2.0?
Sweet baby inc. now we find out the absolute clusterfuck behind all those people lol.
Someone needs to make like a cliff notes version of this.
I have read and read and really don't understand the original gamer gate thing. And the sweet baby thing even more so. There never seems to be a genesis point. Or maybe it just one of those IYKYK and if you don't you don't.
a whore got caught being a whore. the journalists forced the industry to side with the whore against the gamers.
It's out there but the leftists really do treat GamerGate like it's their 9/11 and the meme is real which is why they'll shut down any accurate accounting on big tech as soon as they find it.

FB peaked years ago. The company was desperately looking for the next thing. They failed.
They got lucky with Instagram, only because another potential buyer (which might have been the company that started tiktok) couldn't raise enough funds at the time.

You know it's bad, when have less users than Suicide Squad...
LOL!
This story is from July 3, 2023
Zuck is still CEO.
Apparently even though he only has ~14% stock ownership, he has enough Class B shares to have 55% voting power over the corporation.
Ppl who invest in that are dumb
Problem is, people invest in META indirectly through index funds/ETFs, especially everyone's favorite index, the S&P 500. 401(k)s and pensions don't pick and choose stock; they get auto-dumped into these funds and pump the market up higher.

These fund guarantee that somebody gets paid. I bet the house gets paid. But the investors can lose all or part of their investment.
who would win? a billion dollar corporation with the backing of several governments, or a bunch of furries and weebs (VR chat)?
we now know the answer
I remember when people were putting effort into making beautiful worlds worth visiting for their billboards to get decent advertising in their Secondlife accounts thinking that this would be their big break.
My heart still goes out to them.

*Lay off the Jew jokes for this one please, it's a great film regardless of your thoughts on all of that.
I have seen the joke you’re probably referencing, but I wasn’t thinking about Jews at all until you said it. You might be a little obsessed.
It's not me obsessing, some days these boards live up to the manufactured hype that was labelled on us 10 years ago.
shutup kike!
Tbf a few people like that Chinese women did make bank from selling "virtual land" in SecondLife. I don't fault others for trying to do the same at the time.

I'm not being mean but this post could use a second pass for clarity
Still haven't seen that one.
The metaverse was not valued at $13 trillion. META, which includes Facebook and Instagram, was valued at $13 trillion.
Zuck will be laughing at all the VC investors, all the way to his underground bunker in Hawaii.
Kind wondering if theZuck used this debacle to launder a few billions off his books to somewhere hidden.
He could have probably bought SecondLife for Tree-fiddy and an expired Arby's coupon and been way ahead of this nonsense.
Good example of how all stock valuation is fake and gay. Our true economy is being completely masked by shit like this.
Remember some bitch was shaking when some avatars came up to her and air humped her? She claimed she was raped and they added bubbles around avatars to prevent this?? Lawl.
It's one of those things that could have, potentially, been big. But knowing the NPCs in charge of the decisions there it was destined to fail.
