In case it gets deleted from game journo's retaliating, I made an archive for people: https://archive.vn/gmoE1
 

It's a good read. It seems that Nick has noticed what people in GamerGate have been saying for years. Well, I'm sure that like many, he ready knew this to be the case; however, it's still good to see him take the risk -- even if he participated. I'm sure he still holds the same publicly accepted view of GG, since he's only calling out Schreier and friends, but it's still funny.
My biggest hope is that it's the start of a conversation that helps in getting rid of the activist infestation in gaming. I doubt it will be, though. His gripe seems to be more with his character, rather than his ideals.
Either way, it'll be a show. I'm all for more of it; especially if it illustrates how corrupt Kotaku, journalists, and the gaming industry as a whole, have become.

Personally hope everybody at Escapist, Kotaku and Bloomberg trash websites get fired.

Send everybody home, it's the only way to be sure.

People who make long twitter rants should be shot. You want to make a live journal post, go make it on live journal.

This dude is still a cuck saying gamergate was about harassment. Pathetic.

They always cry against "gatekeeping" , that is until they get in to power and then they become the BIGGEST gatekeepers ever

I don't disagree with you on Schreier, but I don't see how you can rail against toxicity while employing MovieBob.
