RE: RVF is being blamed for Gawker losing advertisers
White Knight mangina Will Wheaton got a man fired from his job at Destructoid.

His "crime"? Calling some actress a "booth babe".

http://geekout.blogs.cnn.com/2012/07/02/...licia-day/

http://www.the-magicbox.com/forums/archi...29392.html

The Destructoid journo had about 50 followers on Twitter. In internet terms and game industry terms he was a nobody. Wheaton had over a million followers, and sicced them on a man, with the express purpose of taking away his livelihood and ruining his career over a silly throwaway remark.

Of course, failed actor Wheaton isn't now calling for gaming journalists to be fired for their much more explicitly offensive language and behaviour attacking gamers over Gamergate. He's absolutely fine with that.

He's a hypocrite.

That's good Steve. Show that he goes after the little guy will really tarnish his reputation.

If Gawker really wanted to hurt the GamerGate movement, they would stop letting their crybaby trust fund staff write pretentious "think pieces" about it. It's just flinging mud back and forth at this point between two online communities that don't like each other. This will die down once either side stops playing.

RE: RVF is being blamed for Gawker losing advertisers
Wow, Wheaton is a real fringe left faggot. I'd think even Hollywood lefties would be uncomfortable with some of the stuff he is writing on his blog. But I guess he doesn't have much of career to sabotage so feels free to speak his mind. And he fits the profile - bearded double chin, pot belly, budding moobs, raising another man's children.

At best, he's a white knight. From an interview with his wife: At 23 years old, I had already been married, divorced and was living on my own as a single parent with two little boys. I put myself through cosmetology school at night while working as a waitress during the day. It was the hardest time of my life but I wouldn’t trade it for anything. It made me a motivated, hard working, independent person. When I was 26, I met a 23 year old named Wil at a New Year’s Eve party a mutual friend of ours was having. We started dating, eventually got married and spent several years working our asses off to keep our family above water while my ex-husband tried his hardest to pull us all under.

I have but one word for this thread: "Good"

No skin off my ass if Gawker loses traffic because this forum decides to serve the right information to people who request it.

Wheaton's tumblr headline is "Hi. I'm Wil, and this is my Tumblr thing. Yay."

Now, imagine every cool dude you've ever met. Can you imagine a single one of them writing a headline for their internet presence like that? It's pretty trivial, it's just funny to me the gulf between men like Wheaton and us. I could go up to a random Greek or Rwandan dude and have more in common with them than a guy like Wheaton.

Yep. Only thing Gamergate is losing is time. Other side is losing time, money and marketplace power.

Wheaton blurred out Roosh's avatar, how would his minions know where to direct their social justice bloviations?

RE: RVF is being blamed for Gawker losing advertisers
SJW types fundamentally misunderstand why the people they attack lose their jobs. They think it's because corporations have a social conscience but really corporations just hate controversy. When the shitstorm gets turned on them they're just as vulnerable as their victims.

So Wil Wheaton was just playing himself on TNG I take it? I have no doubt this is exactly how Wesley Crusher would have reacted to this.

Seems like Roosh gained some allies with a response he posted:

I think it's time to take a page out of the old liberal handbook: when someone apologizes, you own them. It's never, "Hey everyone, I made a mistake, I'm sorry," oh no, you have to do the apology tour.

Gawker just apologized. But how do we really know that they mean it? They must make amends now. Anyone got any suggestions as to how?

Meh, RVF was blamed for that nutjob shooter back in May or June or whenever it was too. More of the same.

If these troll accounts are anything like the direction-less ramblings in their comment section and twitter then they will all be banned after one post.

I know an SJW (who heads Gearbox itself) that you might want to take down.

Anthony Burch is using the Boarderlands franchise to promote all kinds of legitimate feminist garbage. It's like Jeezebel the game.

Case in point:

Exhibit A: http://i.imgur.com/FCFeyJc.png

B: http://i.imgur.com/c3Ehi9y.png

C: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTSq4SfjTbo

D: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lG_VItFUEEI (P.S. This one has an actual lecture, in game, about misogyny).

Easiest way to get this snake back. Remind the world that he made (and published) this "gem:" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZJ4BiIE...e&t=11m55s

Wil Wheaton is a true SJW cult member.

A few months ago I was scanning cable (a wasteland) for something to watch, and, much to my disgust, I saw Willy doing an interview for a BBC America series called Orphan Black.

His mangina mannerisms and supplication were so repulsive I couldn't watch. Even the main actress on the show was visibly embarrassed by this fucking obsequious, weak-minded pussy.
