Not my job to educate you

Mods, please lock and sticky

It's the portal opened up in 2014 that allowed millions of goblins into our world.

A misogynistic alt-right campaign led by Steve Bannon to drive women out of game development, and also to get Trump elected.

A campaign a bunch of people cooked up because they realized games journalism was corrupt as all fuck, led by Sargon of Akkad, and also got falsely associated with the Alt-right and anti-feminist groups because some of them said mean things about notorious scammer Anita Sarkeesian and “would fuck a rhino to get ahead” Zoe Quinn, meaning they were totally in favor of getting Trump elected despite minimal evidence to support that.

FIFY

I've reported your post for being sincere.

Also mods, while you're here please unban my beautiful brother Chet

what is a gamer gate???

A gamergate is a mated worker ant that is able to reproduce sexually, i.e., lay fertilized eggs that will develop as females.

Gamergates are restricted to taxa where the workers have a functional sperm reservoir!

Hey guys, new here. What is this sub even about anyway?

it's the locked basement door that keeps the NEETs contained

It's elevatorgate 2

Gamers gatekeeping themselves. For example, if you play mobile games they don’t consider you a gamer.

Requirements for being a g*mer are as follows:

1) Play games

2) Say the gamer word loudly and frequently

I can see why this label is gatekeeped. Who wants to be called a gamer ?

It's the thing that killed total biscuit. 😢

By my recollection...

Some BPD woman slept with the entire game industry. /v/ started talking about it. A Haruhi poster got pissed off and started calling everybody GAYMER GAYS. The rest is history.
