George Floyd was a junkie criminal whose most noteworthy achievement was overdosing on the street while being arrested. His second most noteworthy achievement was barging into a woman’s house and robbing her at gunpoint. He contributed nothing of value to the world. Nobody cared about him until he died. He was a loser and a fuck up and a predatory vagrant, which is why, amid all of the incessant eulogizing and performative mourning in the wake of his death, not one person was ever able to provide even one example of any positive contribution that Floyd ever made to his community. There is no comparison between him and Charlie Kirk, who was mourned for what he actually achieved in life, and whose death inspired his admirers to come together in peace and prayer and unity. Floyd was a disgraceful man whose disgraceful death inspired legions of nihilistic savages to behave in ways even more disgraceful still. Does that help you understand the difference or should I keep going?
He has been the very tip of the spear against the trans "movement" in the culture war. Yeah, he can get peoples' panties in a bunch around here because of his shit talk against gamers, but he has singlehandedly done as much damage to the left as all of gamergate has.
Anybody still throwing a fit over him can't see the forest for the trees.
I'd say he's done more than GG has, we really didn't get much in the way of wins- really the only thing we did was weaken the left's defenses. He's gotten literal bills passed and is largely responsible for dismantling the trans cult in the US.
Gamergate made a large number of previously ignorant men highly politically aware just ahead of the most important election in American history. Gaming itself was definitely lost to the leftists, but it was a victory that may have ultimately cost them the war.
GamerGate is fairly directly responsible for the Adpocolypse. Advertisers demanded that YouTube and Google give them more control over where their advertising was seen, and then unanimously chose to have nothing to do with Gaming content.
The advertising rate in computer publications and websites used to be the highest in the publishing world. Shortly after GamerGate the rate had plunged and never rose again. Games journalism went from being safe, politically neutral media, friendly for every advertiser, to being very, very political.
The drop in advertising rate changed the entire business model of Games Journalism.
The end of "Native Advertising" caused (by my count) at least two AAA games to tank and then slowly starved two billion dollar publishing empires.
They changed the rules of Reddit because they were utterly terrified of the effectiveness of Gamers writing letters to advertisers. We cut off journalists money and made their jobs a joke. They have been utterly terrified that something like that may happen again ever since.
He's way more effective than Crowder. I can't think of any actual accomplishment Crowder has under his belt, Matt has a Supreme Court victorious law under his.
The entire reason anyone was able to speak about covid on YouTube was Crowder. He also draws in a huge amount of viewers and provides some of the best sources. There's a reason DW wanted him so badly.
His covid coverage alone puts him head and shoulders above the rest because he was taking he hits and providing accurate information while virtually everyone else was too afraid to speak

It’s really kind of insulting to compare the two. However, it does show how morally bankrupt the left is that they chose Floyd to celebrate.
That's the point...
Every now and then Walsh knocks it out of the park.

I was actually going to say exactly that, but decided to tone it down at the last second due to how he is usually received around here.
He could have included the part about the robbed woman being pregnant.
He is consistently one of the most effective people on the right outside of Crowder
*autocorrect is getting retarded

I'm glad I don't need to post anything, this was just basically what all of us were going to say.
