I love that EBG's argument is basically that because everyone agrees that GG is a bad thing, it must therefore be a good thing, without any requirement to apply knowledge or critical thinking to the subject matter.
Craster, you know I have never said anything like that. 'It must therefore be a good thing'? My commentary on this thread from the start has been more on the behaviour of how easily and blindly you criticise an entire movement of people without
any critical thinking. I made it very clear from the first post I was talking in general terms, and repeated that fact ad nauseum. Ordinarily anyone making sweeping generalisations about any group of people would swiftly be rounded upon for their simplistic and unintellectual representation of a granular debate. Except in this circumstance you consider those generalisations perfectly OK (because
you think so), and can't mount any kind of defence against it except 'they're clearly evils'.
You confuse this as support for GamerGate. I've read little about it, I've typed nothing in support of their stated aims, views, or actions of any of them. It's nothing to do with me. I've been forever talking a meta level above the actual subject matter and instead have questioned you all on your idiotically hypocritical moral application to equivalent propositions, without any concession of your bias. All the while you try to maintain as though you're just being perfectly logical in a subject that really is just as simple as two groups of people having opposing views. The point of amusement for me is the absolute lack of respect and decorum that is exhibited by those that think they're on the side of right - whichever side you happen to think that is.
You're all pathetic, weasily, circle-jerking children who are so anti-GG that you consider any criticism of your smug, self-righteous, impotent backslapping in here to be tactic support for the opposing side. Strawmanning reductionism that you're trying to pretend doesn't exist.
It's little wonder this forum is doomed to negative population growth. Eventually it'll be the same half-dozen of you posting nothing but tired old in-jokes back and forth at each other.
