One thing that's really annoyed me about pro-GG lately is their equivalent of the word shitlord: cuck. Not only does it sound ugly, but the connotations ("Baww, that guy disagrees with me, I bet his girlfriend sleeps with other guys!") are petty and completely irrelevant to their arguments.

The implications of it are actually completely related to how they want to demonize the other side - as impotent, "weaklings" who have tricked themselves into submitting to women simply because they're women.

I love how GG nitwits denounce their opponents as being "weak" or "cucks" or "whipped" or "manginas"...

...while they've been whining on the Internet about a couple of bimbos complaining about video games for over a year.

Someone name-dropped Gamergate in an anime dub for Prison School, and not in a flattering way.

I'm indifferent to the whole GamerGate whatever, but geez this employee is such an asshole even to the non-GG users who merely complained that the dub didn't need an outdated political message. Obviously he wasn't taught the basics of PR. Funi won't fire him I imagine, given that there are other VAs out there like Sonny Strait who are asspatting him.

This dub is pure cringe. Political/social messages aside, it just irks me that translators will do anything to "Westernize" a dub just...well...because America. Like how Pokemon called rice balls "jelly donuts". GamerGate isn't really a thing outside America, right? It's also pretty ironic how an anti-GG line is used in an anime where five guys are pitted against 1000 scantly clad females in ecchi like scenarios. Doesn't that go against the whole anti-GG "agenda" of having women be all seductive or raunchy?

It's been abused a lot on imageboards to the point that it's becoming a forced meme. And it's not hard to use too - just use "cuck" on anything such as "cuckchan" - An unfunny nickname for 4chan.

Even the term "Sarcuck" which was used a lot on /ggrevolt/ made me cringe since I was like, "Come on, is this the best you can come up with? :roll: "
 
All these buzzwords are annoying in general. Like if you can't articulate your arguments in normal English then you're probably not someone I'll listen to.

Not to mention that the use of the word in a mocking tone implies that all the pro GGers are getting mad pussy, which is rather unlikely when you consider that some of them genuinely believe that every woman in the world subscribes to Sarkeesian's ideology.

It's not particular to Gamergate but rather the alt-right in general. Guys like Matt Forney, Vox Day, the Daily Stormer (an outright Neo-Nazi rag), etc. all refer to anyone they don't like as "cucks" and even call others on the right who don't hate non-whites as much as they do "cuckservatives."

Plus, his videos are way too long and way too autistic, and say a lot of shit that could usually be said in five minutes, max.

Pro-GG in a nutshell. They're too autistic to articulate their points in a way that people who aren't part of it can understand.

Not just Sarkeesian's ideology, but Andrea Dworkin's. Every person who ever said the word "feminism" approvingly wants to personally kill all men, after castrating them, of course.

I can't even tell what Sarkeesian's ideology is, to tell the truth. It doesn't seem particularly radical in its general tendencies. About the only tendency that can be picked out is complaining about supposedly awful tropes, but why they're bad isn't even really explained. Most of her presentations are just nitpicks of things that are, in fact, actually cliched and dumb, at least when they're accurate, which often they're not.

Sarkeesian never really makes a logical connection between how the specific things she's complaining about actually lead to problems in the real world, which is why it is autistic as fuck to single her out as Satan incarnate, because you can't really point to anything especially awful about her vanilla, homogenized for mass media "commentary."

It's just kind of lame and kind of dumb, not exactly worthy of the torrents of abuse it's attracted, and people who have really focused on Sarkeesian look more or less like fucking headcases. It's not at all hard to pin death threats on people spewing the kind of deranged rhetoric at banal feminism-lite crap like Sarkeesian peddles.

Dworkin's was repellent, of course, but she definitely had a coherent ideology, albeit a coherently insane one.

Yes, you're exactly right, IMO. This is one way in which GGers/anti-feminists have ironically been their own worst enemies. Sarkeesian's own videos are so bland and poorly-thought out that by themselves, they would have been little more than curiosities. Worthy of a bit of amused laughter, maybe, but promptly dismissed and forgotten, like the hundreds of clickbait fluff pieces on Gawker-owned sites were before.

Lamentably, this fact completely escaped her "haters," and their ridiculously splenetic, over-the-top attacks on her have given her infinitely more sympathy and attention than she would *ever* have received on her own. She went from mediocre "feminist" parrot #2473846 to a damned household name thanks to the valiant efforts of her enemies. The icing on the clusterfuck cake is how inept those efforts have been, despite their vastly outsized enthusiasm. At least Sarkeesian's videos were made with a modicum of professionalism. Meanwhile, the "Sarkeesian Effect" went through a soap-opera's worth of drama among the GGers before releasing a product that gives Ed Wood a run for his money in the "amateurish editing" department. Thus making her hum-drum videos seem better than they actually are in comparison.

The fight for the soul of the internet, free speech, the right to privacy and to remain anonymous rages on, and in the small segment of this fight pertinent to vidya, known as #GamerGate, those who understand this have fought against those who seek to co-opt it for personal gain. It was an uphill battle for those who fought against the “ethics only” side, but it seemed to all pay off.



As usually happens with rebels vs the establishment style fights, those who were fighting against the “ethics cucks”(the “established order” in GG) were branded in every way imaginable: from being called doxers with no evidence to “drama whores” and undercover SJWs. Yet with a little luck and a lot of determination, now the public sees this as a fight of two legitimate sides. This is a huge accomplishment. No longer can ethics cucks simply dismiss their opposition with mockery, notice how now they use silence, and prefer not to engage. /ggrevolt/ is mostly responsible for this; an 8chan board that, despite me not being a regular user of 8chan in general, I can’t help but appreciate, for multiple reasons, their commitment to the truth, there critical thinking and above all, their refusal to trust anyone at face value. They will probably rip me for “sucking up” to them in this paragraph, and they should. Trust Nobody.



Now, I wish I could sit here and pat everyone on the back, or talk about that stream I had with vee, where, as I warned him would happened in my previous article, I kicked his teeth in. But those who follow what I do, know I don’t do “morale” shit nor do I write if there is no real need for it. So to /ggrevolt/ and everyone else who are fighting ethics cucks, SJW lights and every other form of bullshitter, the fight is not over.

Many will argue on when exactly the tide turned, but without a doubt, when Mercedes Carrera put out her video regarding the UN incident, it marked the point of no return: It put ethics cucks in a position they had never been, forced to condemn someone they simply could not go up against. They couldn’t cast out Mercedes. She was too beloved. However, while many celebrated this, I come bearing a warning: You won a battle, not the war.

I noted that Sargon of Akkad made the point regarding SJWs that their attempts to silence discussion merely leads to more discussion. What he failed to understand is that it is the exact thing that caused Anita Sarkeesian to blow up, note that she reached her kickstarter goal only after the death threats started (Real or imagined). The neckbeards tried to silence an idiot and thus helped foster a cult of personality around said idiot.
 
Let's be honest, the worst part about GG was the fact that there was suddenly an influx of random youtubers being called SJWs for no adequate reason. One example I can think of were Retsupurae when they did a video on a bunch of Skyrim mods narrated by a boring Englishman, and laughing because the mods were mostly breast enhancements etc, interspaced with interesting mods. Some dude called them Sjws, presumably because they were mocking his wank fuel.

Then Buckley of ADoseofBuckley made a video talking about the Hulk Hogan incident and how WWE were hypocrites to fire him becuase they have often relied on racial stereotypes to sell shit to the public. Which is true. Some commenter actually said he was unsubbing because of 'SJW shit' and had about 100 thumbs up.

That's the really stupid thing, people get called 'SJW' or 'Cuck' simply for pointing out stupid shit. It's like the opposite of the time when you could be called racist for any little stupid thing.
 
Everybody makes GamerGate out to be such a big deal, but what I really want to see is the upcoming election tackle this shit. Would be really interesting.

Clinton - "GAMES MUST HAVE PROPER FEMALE PROPORTIONS! I WILL PROVIDE CHANGE FOR WOMEN EVERYWHERE!"
Trump - "FEMINISM? IN GAMES? THAT'S NOT AMERICAN! IDIOTS! YOU'RE FIRED! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"

Don't know if our clever stutter man Reuben Baron is still relevant, but he tweeted support for that awful Prison School dub.

I'm already laughing at Trump, who I see as a birthday clown wearing a Merkin due to advocating revolution when Obeme won '12 and who went bankrupt more than once and needing bailouts, being a top GOP candidate. I also see gaymurgaet as a joke due to them being both late and dumb on the matter too. This would cause my brain to hemorrhage at the insanity and fail, especially considering how very few people care nowadays.
