so how exactly did Gamergate become so cringeworthy in the past 6 months or so?

wasn't it largely composed of /pol/ users?

No

It's Reddit

What did you expect

>wasn't it largely composed of /pol/ users?
Not after the first week or do. After that it was basically left-libertarian Reddit types who only got semi-redpilled.

Only by the people getting triggered by it. The trolls have long since moved on but you'll get someone who is desperate for attention who will come out of the woodwork and say they've been recently harass by Gamer Gators so you should give them attention.

it was always pretty cringeworthy senpai. not that it didn't help in the long run, gawker's defeat pretty much came out of that bullshit.

for a time it was /v/ and /pol/ in a glorious union, like Germany and Austria, then Reddit came along like fucking Italy

Isn't Gamergate one of the reasons /pol/ nuked for like a week? I'm not sure, I really don't remember.

Dude we haven't touched that dead horse in a year.

It's babby's first redpill and the cucks of reddit are so happy about breathing their first breath without the jackboot of totalitarian lefties on their throats they go bonkers thinking it's actually important.

GG was only ever important as a window into how corrupt journalism is overall. It wasn't about games or sexual favours or whatever the fuck.
It was about highlighting that a bunch of non-game playing liberal arts majors were sitting around injecting their agendas into the writing with a legitimate conspiracy to do so and which narratives to push.

Through that window we got to glimpse the jews of Gawker, and through them 90% of current clickbait media.

If you missed that and still think it was about games, or you're still going on about games, you're a fucking retard.

>>74978717
The same thing that happened to occupy.

They wanted PC. They got it.
>>
Gamergate actually introduced me to /pol/ shortly before /pol/ harbor. I actually used to believe trannies and gays were valid things, that a little socialism wasn't too bad, watched Sarcuck of Mossad, and actually thought jews were poor oppressed people.

Was from /b/ for years before.
>>
Gamergate has been over since like 2014.

nice post, thanks swedebro.

>>74978717
Only reddit and /v/ (which is basically reddit) gave a fuck about it. It was just a fucking retarded circlejerk, basically people getting endlessly trolled and constantly giving the trolls attention so they trolled even harder

You're getting older, a year or two once encompassed your whole life which is why they seemed so long, now they're just a fraction of your time on earth.

It was a mixture of GG, Ben Garrison, and moot just getting pissed at everybody on 4chan saying cuck.

Basically 4chan was getting a lot of heat at once and 99% of it was being blamed on /pol/

GG will probably exist in some form forever since SJWs can't stop feeding it.

>>74981309
Pretty sure flags (the country ones, not the ones you could select yourself) were added after /pol/ harbor

Gamergate did it's job well. It pretty much took a backseat now since it became clear that Assange was saying the truth that corruption and the narrative of false truths was apparent way more outside gaming journalism. Usual journalism is also corrupt as hell, and pretty much everyone who paid attention to Gamergate has noticed that by now.

This is how you turn the average white gamer into a fascist is what im implying. The fascist influence is already there in vidya, whether they know it or not that's why it's so important to project marxist propaganda into vidya

Thats what you get when you tell a generation of kids they can do no wrong. Participation awards for everybody.
