And now for more stupid, starring another asshole who missed the point so hard that it flew off the set, burrowed through a wall, and signed onto a Mel Brooks movie.
From
Cracked, which has become increasingly shit, we have this lovely article of "Seven Ways Gamergate Proves Humanity is Doomed."
So right out the gate, we're going into the realm of open clickbaiting, but to provide you all with the faggotry-free version, his "arguments" are summed up thus, and an immediate counter-argument, because Luke McKinney's a fucking toolbox. Enjoy!
7. He dismisses the entire affair as "An Ex-Boyfriend's Revenge."
Those familiar with this bit of flaming stupid know that Zoe Quinn and whom she may or may not have fucked hasn't been relevant to Gamergate itself in a while.
6. He whines that there's gamergate porn, citing the porn of Vivian James.
Rule 34 says you're a fucking moron, Luke. He also chooses to ignore that there's porn of Zoe Quinn, Maya Kramer, et al.
5. He brings up that a Gamergate attempt to help push for actual coverage in journalism got screwed because of a corrupt lawyer that took the money and ran.
Yes, because that
totes was the fault of Gamergate itself and
not the actions of one dickmongler of a legal professional. How fortunate for the internets that keen-eyed eagles like Luke McKinney stand vigil over her tubes.
4. He dismisses the entire movement as a bunch of childish dicks and claims that most arguments for gamergate are sockpuppetry.
Yes, because we're totally the ones that have been trying to actively silence any and all discussion on this issue.
3. He bitches because one of the sides is predominantly made up of So-called SJWs, and thus everyone opposing them is wrong by default.
So hey, how are you enjoying the movement that's already doxxed kids, got some guy who stood up for not being used as the internet equivalent of a human shield fired, and have tried to do that to several others, asshole? How many times have they compared people who dared to fucking have an opinion contrary to their own as terrorists, racists, misogynists, and worse before the utter lack of similarity between your average so-called SJW and actual legitimate social justice is discussed?
2. He claims no corruption ever happened, and to shut the fuck up about it.
This one is unusual - he gives no evidence, links, or information to support this claim - just some pictures of unicorns. He claims that a corrupt game review for a game he never specifies for a reason he never specifies never happened, and seemingly seems to want us to just accept that with no information given whatsoever. He then, appropos of nothing, spews out this bit of utter lunacy.
We've investigated fucking
lolcows with more coherent logic than this motherfucker.
1. He claims that Gamergate's the wrong banner for the movement, and then likens everyone under it to followers of Sauron.
.....I really have nothing to add here. He seriously says this.
And throws more insults, with the good taste and respect we've come to expect from Luke by now:
In conclusion, Cracked has gone off the fucking deep end harder than that asshole that mainlined Bath Salts and wrecked a Wal-Mart a few months back.
