I have mixed circles of friends and associates as many of you have guessed. Left leaning gaming Historians are talking about all the archives they have of GamerGate and studying it to prove how evil it was. One bragged about having over 5TB of files.
They all talked about how it was destroyed and the leadership was in jail for rape and stuff. I get the feeling more papers from those types is incoming.
What leadership?
They didn't mention a single name, but talked like everyone is in jail. I could quote some of it, but that could be traced back to me and get a big headache. I'll be Kardinal in the Kremlin on this.
Isn't the only GGer in jail that guy nobody heard of that killed his dad or something completely unrelated to GG?
I’m actually posting from jail, they gave me 3 years for moving stair muffins.
The laxatives were a nice touch by the way.
Who?
I think he had some connection to Milo or something? I honestly can't remember much except aGG made it their big gotcha over how dangerous we are.
The one who killed his dad? Seattle4Truth / Lane Maurice Davis
Pinkerbell, of course.
Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time. . . a long time. . .
Who are you talking about?
Reddit mod from way back when.
The "female" mod on the original Reddit KiA sub.
I'm pretty sure you were the leader of Gamergate if memory serves.
I am Spartacus
On of the things I loved about the Galaxies Edge series was they treated historians like the cheap academic tower whores they are in reality.
I don't think the bigger names even care right now, but some of the people who only have this as their life are doing it. So, yeah.
Bigger names already have status, it’s the graspers who will lie fervently to gain it. Its like Jefferson banging black slaves, there’s no actual evidence, but it’ll sell a book and give a lecture series somewhere.
It's mostly arcade historians. The ones convinced that arcades only existed between 75 and 03. By coincidence that's when they were kids. Also, that seems to be the narrative by the console people. In their promotions Consoles beat Arcades and that was it. Also, PC Gaming started with Doom and there is no mention of the Commodore 64 or even Atari 800 XL. They'll walk through conventions that prove their narrative is wrong, but it will be ignored.
So, perfect for lefty material.
That’s why most “history” changes with each new generation, like most social sciences.
Yeah, most universities have two history departments. Usually the second one isn't called history, but that's all they cover. Political Science, Women's Studies, Ect make sure you know the 'History'. It's the reason why historians get cocky, because they think they're dealing with the people who work in the 'other' history department.
I remember discussing feminism with the head of an anthropology department. I showed how foot binding was actually being done by women for women. I had sources and knowledge on it deeper than the one book she read. She said I was a great historian but a terrible anthropologist. In actual Chinese history groups, it's a known thing, but the book she read was all she knew about.
Or people who bring up the 1983 North American Video Game Crash and act as though it was this catastrophic event that nearly ended gaming completely, especially on YouTube.
Yes, it was a catastrophic event in the history of gaming... in NORTH AMERICA.
The rest of the world continued on their merry way. Europe had the C64, Amiga, CPC and SG1000. Japan had the Epoch Cassette Vision, Famicom and Turbografx 16.
Starting to? Isn't it already 100% completely and truthfully documented on Wikipedia and even in history textbooks?
truthfully? History is written by the winners, and who owns the gates of communication and information?
What you will find about it will tell you everything you need to know.
Very true. Egypt lost a lot of battles, but made them look like wins in Promotional stuff. Why? Most enemies were too far to disagree.
Yes and no. Historians wait at least a decade before they properly step in. By then documents and sources are released, and most of the angry people have moved on to something else. They often try to get as much source work done while waiting, and then release papers. We've only recently saw books on 01-09.
Sort of like how Angry Video Game Nerd, Homestar Runner, and Screw Attack talked about nostalgia of the Super Nintendo generation and lower. The N64 was too recent.
Or thoroughly scrubbed and falsified in this case.
Which is why I archive my source lists now.
It is their very own holocaust, and like their holocaust, has been editorialized beyond recognition of the events that ACTUALLY happened.
And who the fuck even gets 5 TB worth of data related to it?
Videos and forums, possibly the originals from reddit. I doubt they know about this one.
i'm going to bet that 5tb is just their cp collection considering there's zero proof of us doing anything besides email some ad companies and being less than worshipful of a grifter, a tranny, and a whore.
Aren't they plagiarising Law and order SVU for this?
The problem is that the Internet is FOREVER and for as much as an establishment shill he can be, guys like Dev have ALL the receipts not to mention videos about it freely available.
And we have a rotating door of NEW people learning about it from SideScrollers to even Barnes, this will just be looked at and mocked relentlessly like the 'Cleopatra was Black!' crowd.
Make sure to save everything on the internet. There are people powerful enough to scrub even that. Driver 3 shows all the methods used to make a narrative work.

It's funny that stuart campbell became a mad TERF
It's how he kept his job.
That's why they have to control the narrative with outrageous falsehoods. It's not for the people that lived it and recognize it for the lies they are, it's for the people coming after the fact.
