She had to bring up GamerGate while whining about being laid off in gaming.
This thieving whore has a lot of gall even showing her fat, puffy, poorly aging face. Fuck GamerGate. What about TingleGate, thief?
That makes this so much weirder. Did she REALLY sleep her way to the top?
Not really. She sucked her way to entry level and a few vanity credits from people she blew.
I also think that while Quinn has always been very mid, it's a bit disingenuous to pretend Gamer-gate era Zoe Quinn was some unfuckable goblin.
It really depended. Even back then, she pingponged in weight between reasonable weights and being outright fat. A lot of her better pictures were carefully curated. It wasn't ever really her physical appearance that made her repulsive, though, but her personality.
I know crazy conspiracies are your milieu, but history has shown us that many men will go to great lengths to simp for mid or low grade pussy (Roman Emperor Marc Antony lost his empire and killed himself because of Cleopatra, who was reportedly mid-looking at best but let him fuck her in the ass), and White Women Tears have led to the downfall of many men (just ask Emmett Till).
Much like Zoe Quinn's appearance isn't why she's repulsive, Cleopatra's appearance isn't why many powerful men (including Julius Caesar for that matter) found her attractive.
There is no conspiracy, just Chelsea sucking the right dicks at the right time.
There was no conspiracy before Eron Gjoni wrote his lament about being quintuple cucked by the Five Guys, but there was definitely a conspiracy in the GameJournoPros list about how to spin it all.
It just happened to be Zoepost that kick started gamergate, but if people ignored the blogpost then eventually gamers would have noticed some other indication that games journalism was a complete sham.
Most people already had known that and had been seething about it for years, but the whole Zoepost thing made it inescapably blatant and provided a hook to hang it on.
The death of gamers stuff makes it weird.
Fun fact: gamers are still around. Games journalism by comparison is on life support with full blown AIDS.
Anthony Burch had some DMs leaked where he admitted to believing almost every negative claim about Zoe except that she faked her own harrassment.
I'm pretty sure both are true. Both sides of the whole GG thing had gigantic autists in them who would constantly pull gay ops, but Zoe faked a lot of the worst stuff including that dumbass Wizardchan post.
As shitty as Wu's game was, at least it was an actual game that involved more programming skill than just clicking some prompts in TWINE, which is Baby's First Game Program and then pooping out some lame text with multiple choices.
John doesn't code. He paid other troons to do it for him, then fired them and took all the credit.
