    Not sure the part of this that makes him 'evil'. Do we consider all communists evil because they support an ideology that butchered a hundred million people?
    Most people would rather die than think, and most people do. -Bertrand Russell
    Before the camps, I regarded the existence of nationality as something that shouldn’t be noticed - nationality did not really exist, only humanity. But in the camps one learns: if you belong to a successful nation you are protected and you survive. If you are part of universal humanity - too bad for you -Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

    The good news is that the nowadays audience of computer games is a broad audience, and not the "white males" alone anymore which bannon and Yiannopulous hyped to burn feminism in Gamergate.

    At the end, the gamergate story completely created the opposite of what the fascist Bannon and the pedophile supporter Yiannopulous tried to achieve.

    They lost the battle. They just dont know it yet. The gamer scene isnt dominated by "white right males" nowadays, but by all kind of people, a colorful mix of genders and ages, a mix of cultures and ideas.

    Steve Bannon really subscribes to the belief it would better to let society collapse on itself, so that it could be used politically for whomever would pick up the pieces, namely him.


    Trump maybe an bad moronic man child who's access has given him far more than reason. Steve Bannon is just fucking evil. Seinfeld or not.

    This post is hysterical. Diversity in gaming was never the issue. Keep living in your fantasy world though.

    Seeing many of the typical mmo nut-bags hating the guy makes me think he can't be all that bad.

    Holy shit, sometimes I read things like this and think "Are people this fucking delusional that this is how they saw Gamergate?"

    Considering the whole Gamergate was about people being pissed that a stupid slut blew 5 guys to get good reviews for a shit game is where it started and ended.

    Confirmed. Bannon is colluding with China and not Russia.

    Meh, you're leaving a lot of the story out. The whole collusion between gaming """journalists""" is pretty important.

    You don't understand. He isn't a self-loathing whitey who wants to destroy American cultural norms, so he's basically the devil to them.

    I find that every gaming site releasing the same article "The Gamer identity is dead" pretty suspicious right before GG started...
