to be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand GamerGate. The dedication to ethics in games journalism is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of video games most of the ethical failings of games journalists will go over a typical viewer’s head. There’s also Anita Sarkesian’s feminist agenda, which is deftly woven into the gaming journalist’s writings- her personal philosophy draws heavily from communists literature, for instance. The real gamers understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of the treat to gaming, to realize that they’re not just funny- they say something deep about GAMES. As a consequence people who dislike GamerGate truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn’t appreciate, for instance, the struggle in /Pol/ existential catchphrase “The fucking kikes did this” which itself is a cryptic reference to everting bad that has ever happened. I’m smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Ben Garrisouns genius wit unfolds itself on their computer screens. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂
And yes, by the way, i DO have a Vivian James tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It’s for the ladies’ eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they’re within 5 Gamerscore points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid 😎
I think you mean typical liberal, not typical Trump supporter. There seems to be video of the shooter attending an anti-Trump rally and wearing a "pussy" hat.
My guess is that as more and more information is uncovered we'll find out that the shooter's behavior became more and more erratic, starting around November. Anti-Trump all the way but the shift in behavior likely went undetected because the guy's friends likely shared the same sentiments on one level or another.
I also predict that the media will probably never really fully report on a motive for the shooting because they will want to downplay the "angry liberal shooting up Trump supporters" angle. We saw sort of the same thing with the baseball shooter. His motives were discussed but not at length. We certainly didn't see the in depth reporting that we would have seen had the shooter been conservative. If they do report on motive I'm willing to bet it will be at a later date, after the news cycle as moved on to another event.
The size of the Las Vegas shooting will ensure that there is a lot of news coverage but I doubt that we'll see the in depth coverage we've seen with other similar events whose targets weren't mostly white, middle class, country music fans.
