You are seemingly intelligent enough to think of a witty Reddit name and even put a little clever flair next to it, yet this escapes you? Sweaty, go to an evening class or something....
Remember, you are investing into your own future in university. Imagine spending thousands of dollars on a meme course. Even taking an english course when you dont need it, would teach you more than someone's spite project.
University isn't supposed to be able investing in your future, it's supposed to be about educating yourself and growing as a person and although it's not because of the job market and college costs, educational decisions are still made according to that principle. Even taking that into account, this is still dumb as shit, video game drama has the educational value of banging your head against the wall for 18 hours
Your first assignment is to make a video response to an Anti Fememist.
Your midterm is to write an essay about a gamergate meme.
Your final is to RISE UP and perform 3 hours shit posting on Twitter.
If you pass, you get a blue checkmark.
You aren't supposed to cite Wikipedia anyway. You are supposed to cite what Wikipedia cites. And if it is bullshit, the claim is bullshit. It turns out you are supposed to do scholarship in your scholarship.
yeah that all sounds like how it should work but go and look at sources for contentious or controversial articles and actually look up the people in charge of curating some of this shit

I’m sure everyone can agree that this is fucking retarded. Whether you’re anti-gamergate, pro-gamergate, or a functional human.

Stop regurgitating what the brochures say.
It's like McDonalds saying it isnt about eating its about a CULINARY EXPERIENCE.

He sperged over power rangers so much that his Wiki-staff cronies kept defending his pet articles after he was benned.

This shit is bullshit of the highest order, who the fuck is letting this shit through academia?

Gamergate is in that magical zone where it's too old to be relevant, but not old enough to be history.

If you willingly spend money on this you deserve it.
