Ya know, I'm glad I wasn't involved/aware of gamergate while it was happening, because the only person who didn't turn into a total bitch in the aftermath was Jim, who saw the direction that the movement was going and decided to peace the fuck out.
Let's see, we have....
- Mundane Matt (boring dumb faggot and whiny bitch)
- Bryan Dunn (real actual faggot and drama whore)
- Sargon of Akkad/CARL (Also whiny bitch faggot and failed political pundit)
Who am I missing? So far, everybody listed above have their own threads here, and after all has been said and done, they're all no better than Zoe Quinn, Anita Sarkesian, or
Brianna Wu. Actually, forget Wu, she's a fucking total disaster.
Quite a few more actually (as far as "pro"-GG).
Milo, Ian Miles Cheong, and to an extent Boogey.
EDIT: Oh right, there's also the Honey Badgers. Jim shall do a proper video on them in the future, really hoping he'll knock it out of the park.
Also, there's
Short Fat Otaku who doesn't have a thread here. That being said, the fact that I forgot to include him goes to show how memorable the guy is.
Some of the other characters that appeared on Jim's streams or otherwise interacted with him four years ago and where they stand with him currently:
Adam Baldwin—The man who gave the GardenGopher name to the
Katamari ball of autism movement in the first place. Recently he came out in defense of MundaneMatt, apparently coming off as oblivious as to why people are giving him shit. Ralph and co. gave him a chance to appear on the Killstream to explain his stance, but he never showed up. As far as I'm aware, he pretty much burned bridges with Jim right then and there.
TotalBiscuit (✝)—Well, they can't really have much of a relationship anymore now that one of them is six feet underground. I will say that TB probably would not have gotten along with Metokur during the last year and a half or so of his life. His behavior after the election and the whole "gay trap" incident really seemed to alienate him from Jim.
Erik Kain—Appears to not have changed his stance on GooglyBoogly after so many years, but AFAIK he hasn't really interacted with Metokur since the latter drunkenly screamed at him on stream (which was on him, I admit).
Lo-Ping—I've seen him tweet at Jim-senpai from time to time like he's still buddy-buddy with him, but I don't think he's ever been noticed. He seems to live out his days now thinking GorillaGroper is still a thing and is probably secretly butthurt that Jim ditched it years and years after the fact (like Matt, Sargon, and SFO), but there's no way I can prove that.
RogueStar—LOL, who gives a fuck.
BlackFaceKermit—Was never much of a GGer; at most he was a pro-GG-leaning neutral watching shit unfold from the sidelines. They seem to still be cool with each other; hell, Metokur used his classic Jesse Ventura SHECKZ 4 FAYVERZ intro for his most recent video.
Cindy (the other Asian chick who appeared on that drunk stream)—Ayy LMAO
Let me know if I'm missing anything. It's pretty sad knowing that of all the GGers he hung around with back in the day (aside from Jayd3Fox for obvious reasons), Jim is on the best terms with a guy who literally went to prison for assaulting a cop and has a laugh that's only slightly less forced than DSP's.
