Gay porn is a genre that cuts across all demographics and the stigma that you have to be gay to enjoy it needs to come to an end right now.

"Huge mistake" is quite a term for clicking the follow button on a twitter profile.

Hatemonger is one word because it's someone who mongers hate, he's joining something that is already one word like fearmonger

Just the quality I expect from gaming journalism

Imagine unironically caring about fear mongering in gaming journalism.

Wow you're actually following me around /r/Drama now because I upset you

I haven't had this happen ButteredToast you're in good company

Oh wait you're prob the same person

Nigga I'm just reading the new queue. Quit being so anally blasted by me.

iirc that guy bought a games journalism outlet called the Escapist and *gasp* dared to suggest that not every article comment and forums thread needs to be about current year politics feminism or social justice

of course there's no graver sin on twitter

Can you tl;dr me on him?

dunno about KIA but ghazi has to hate him on principle

Escapist is fucking dead. They let go of all content creators other than Yahtzee making Zero Punctuation. This is a dead website.

That’s too fucking food to be true lmao

Poor Yahtzee.

Classic nu male whitey. Disgusting

He's generally been considered one of the "better" long-form games journalists around for years, which basically means nobody reads his stuff. He worked for the Escapist years ago, I believe in the same position. Some things he said during his departure from Polygon did little to endear himself to others.

I'd say that most opinion of him on either side of GG was neutral to negative, though the KIA types definitely didn't like his wife.

Yeah... But then they hired eugenics enthusiast Bob Chipman.

Lol at that one faggot defending bob on every tweet. Either Bob's parachute or some sperg wants his micro-dick sucked by a fat guy in a Mario costume.

MAMMA MIA

the one with 2 followers? lol

That just screams sock account.

If there's anything I've learned about games journalism is that a lot of these guys are just scared of the job lynch mob. I like Danny o Dwyer and I think he's just playing politics to stay on the good side of his crazier collegues. That's why he didnt outright attack the response to his statement.

I remember when Danny got shit on for suggesting, based on his family's experience in Ireland, that physical violence against political opponents might not be the answer and made him uncomfortable in response to Richard Spencer getting rocked.

Wouldn't surprise me if he is a bit more cautious (I would be) after that.

and then every other outlet called him a nazi until he didnt make enough money and now hes doing this

So going by the replies apparently this has (partly?) got to do with him re-hiring Moviebob. So you get to pick sides between:

  • People still seriously fighting the GG fight in 2018

  • Someone who unironically thinks Bob deserves gainful employment, lists his entirely unremarkable pronouns in his profile, and looks exactly like how you expected him to look

Yep, this'll be fun.

wtf is a "moviebob"

mov·ie·bob

noun see Gelatinous

Moviebob(Or Movieblob as he is called by his "fans") is a mediocre content creator that used to work for the escapist before the Gamergate stuff happened. The man is a loon and is basically Ghazi given human form that uses twitter to preach about the "superior future".

He reviews movies.

holy shit gross

how do these gross neckbeard video game / movie critics make money? is it patreon? ad revneue?

he wrote a book about mario too lmao

he wrote a book where he compared mario vs sonic to vietnam and admitted that he skipped his grandma's funeral to play super mario bros 3

... you can’t just say that and not provide a link.

Just look up the kiwifarms thread on him, the OP does a great job outlining Bob's hilariously fascistic mario-tinged political ideology.

What the fuck? Why did he respond like that? If anything, that's how he should have responded to the other games journalists.

Maybe he’s posting that because of the response from the other game “journos”. Gotta show he’s on the right side.

I grew up in Texas, where, if you found yourself plagued with coyotes, you'd nail one to the fence as a warning to the others.

Why are people from texas such larping mongoloids?

I'm assuming coyote isn't referring to the animal here and is some redneck slang for Mexican or something?

No, it means the animal. They're giant pests that will eat your livestock and pets.

Nailing human traffickers to a fence does sound like a good idea though

Why are people from texas such larping mongoloids.

Imagine looking like this blad motherfucking nerd, your job being American Toy Reviewer™, and still play tough in public.

Yeah, this is the type of dude who would get raped by pack of coyotes, then offer them tea afterwards.

It do be like that here, but there are landowners who have to do these types of things to protect their property.

Something tells me though this guy isn't one of those.

Either way he went top-tier edgelord and for that we should be thankful.

Local fat man yells at tweet

I think it's death that rides the pale white horse and the Man is God. Good reference though 😚🤠.

Thanks bb, in this case I treat them as one and the same. Deep lore!

Dude looks like alternate reality Kenny Omega where the weeb part took over the wrestling part before it could gestate.

Sorry, friends. A lot of hate-mongers have been taking my recent post as an invitation, and I can’t have it. My Texan came out.

This is the dorkiest shit I've read all week. Bespectacled, balding, high-BMI man thinks he's a rancher. Texans, please apologize for this man.

There is a term for guys like this. We call them "goat-ropers", which means they aren't man enough to be a cowboy. It also comes with the connotation that he fucks goats, since goat ropers can't afford to ride into town and purchase the services of hookers.

problem with that logic is he has enough money to pay to fuck your mother in her ass...

Hey, don't judgde, times are tough out on the range. And even goat ropers deserve a treat every now and then.

My grand pappy always made sure his ranch hand got anal at least once every blue moon. This was back when employers actually cared about their workers

We in West Texas now boys.

goat rapers more like

I am sorry.

that guys a games journo?!?! shit i thought it was the marlboro man for a second

Watch him chase of Yahtzee. That's the only reason that ship is still floating.

It will be glorious when it happens.

TIL Escapist isn't just Yahtzee

Now that's the face of someone whose success knows no bounds

Ohh this guy is a co-founder of polygon? Yep this place won't be political at all.
