Diseased #Comicsgate - The Culture Wars Hit The Funny Books!

[c-no]

While I don't keep up with Comicsgate, Ashley Lynch says it will burn out because "it's going after creators at big publishers, white men, and doesn't have a nebulous target to blame".

As a hashtag maybe but seeing how GG lives on through people that can't let go, the same could be said for ComicsGate.

I don't know who Ashley Lynch is, but I love that she stepped out of the anti-CG line by admitting they're roasting white men.

I think the implication is no one will defend them because white men are always protected....or something. It really doesn't make sense to mention.

Or maybe "They won't get white supremacist support" which is good, I guess?

That's it. Remember we're living in "the patriarchy" where white men always have all the power so anybody criticizing them will be crushed ruthlessly.*

*This is what SJWs honestly believe.

EA still gets paid for some insane reason.

EA has been absolutely detested for over 30 years. Like them or not, though, they move product that people actually want, often by acquiring other studios and then often wrecking them, but still generally turning a profit.

Nobody wants woke bullshit. Not even the people who support it most vocally support it economically by actually buying it.

But EA doesn't get paid. Battlefield V pre-orders are down 80%, Mass Effect: Andromida was a failure, Anthem is the last chance for Bioware if the rumours are to be believed (with all signs pointing to a Destiny level disappointment). EA makes their money on sports games, which are largely removed from gamers and social justice bullshit, and loot boxes, which are fuelled by a small number of "whales" that will throw 5 or sometimes even 6 digits at a single game in order to unlock all the items.

How quickly he starts backpedaling on the “it looks fascist my dudes” once the creator comes in:

"Wahh! People don't like me calling them fascists"

That's one of the most pathetic exchanges I've seen on this forum. Utterly spineless.
Aaron: Look at these nazi logos these nazis are making. lol
Bob: Oh. What's wrong with the logos?
Aaron: I didn't criticise your logos! They look great, fantastic even. I never meant to insult you.
Bob: ...Okay. If you have any criticism, feel free to let me know.
Aaron: Sorry for the misunderstanding. Have a good day! ...Is he gone? Fuckin nazis amirite?

Why would Gamergate go after Neil Druckman or Cliffy B? They are developers that make games people actually like, not corrupt journalist or talentless hacks being propped up by said journalists. That's like saying "ComicsGate is going to burn out because they're boycotting Marvel and DC instead of Paul's taxi service.".

My guess is that she'd try to tie the "go after white men" part of her tweet to GG as well. While I remember Cliffy B being sjw or having leanings toward being anti-GG, he's not really as big of a target compared to Kotaku but then again, gotta make a tweet to own those comicgators.

Why the fuck is going after white men a bad thing? Maybe it isn't a white supremacist bla bla like these liars are claiming?

Maybe she'll claim it's infighting or something. Then again, while I don't pay attention to ComicsGate, I can't help but think that it's tism isn't going to have as much Chan spergings as GamerGate did.

It isn't really that interesting. It mostly seems to involve people outraged over Iceman becoming a faggot rather than just not buying comics and going on with life.

 

[KimCoppolaAficionado]

It is ironic considering how much Vox pimps Jon who is supposedly writing for the comic line. I've seen on other websites some call JdA a vox puppet. Makes you wonder how sincere half the stuff Vox spews is.

Vox thinks that there are individual non-whites who can, rarely, be "honorary Aryans", but doesn't think they're common enough to justify letting inferior races live. In other words, like Hitler, he decides who is a Jew or not.

 

[Medicated]

Okay, let's say "Comicsgate" vanishes over night.....then what? If you continue current trajectory you end up with a dead industry and any attempt at changing course besides "MAYBE WE HAVEN'T ADDED ENOUGH WOMEN" would be proving them right.

The whole thing is tiresome.

I know some people are thinking they are trying to "save comics" but just don't bother, it's like trying to protect your buddy that's turned into a flesh eating zombie from being shot. Some of the more naive people that didn't realize how incestuous and cronyism filled every single aspect of the videogames industry was. Journalists wrote about the developers they were seeing on the side while also employed as a marketer for a publisher at the same time, and your buddies over at Gawker you sat down to have a coffee with every evening. Just let it go.

 

[Emperor Julian]

Considering most of the momentum is generated by overeacting to a boring youtube critique and the disproportiate response from actual comic industry employee's that followed, this seems unlikely. I mean one of them might be such a whiney faggot that he/she's pretending to be spider man just to harass the guy, so how likely is this going to calm down?

Actually Neil Druckmann is the reason for Amy Hennig's resignation and why...

Spoiler: Uncharted Spoiler

Drake's kid is a girl instead of a boy -- as Amy wanted.

Plus he's very good chums with Sarkeesian and such, he also believes in using the term experience over fun. There's that infamous interview where he talks about how it shouldn't be fun to kill people in The Last of Us 2, you should be having an experience instead.

Then Cliffy B opened his dumb mouth about gender neutral bathrooms and such because he had to sperg political in a video game. He made that tweet about LawBreakers, "We have gender neutral bathrooms because it's the future." Even though it looked more like it was a co-ed bathroom which... I'm not sure anyone wants. Plus he made LawBreakers and I think shut down his studio, anyone would laugh at him.

Of course all of this is in regards to the Culture War GG and not so much the guys who wanted objective reporting and no interference from the press in games development. I do dislike both as Cliffy B is a bit of a coked out dunce and Druckmann can't keep his politics in his pants. So take what I say with some bias.

Although, what's funny to me is that GG did actually focus on the men. Particularly the Five Guys, so I'm not entirely sure what world Ashley lives in, but she must be miserable if she has to escape reality.

Joe Quesada has suddenly started sperging about Zack

https://twitter.com/JoeQuesada/status/1038658266417569792 http://archive.is/W4kaI
Ya boi had some thoughts


Edit: Quesada has been sperging all day. This is only 1/2 of the back and forth (is there any good archive for capturing all tweets?)


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4NGCm3lIos a bunch of CG personalities respond real-time to the tweets

 

[RockVolnutt]

I'm surprised to see Quesada doing this considering I haven't heard about him for awhile. Any guesses what brought him out?

My nigga, EA has a lock on the two biggest sports games on earth (Soccer & Football). That's why they won't die if Battlefield or Mass Effect dies.

The only reason this affects their stock is because they will fall short of expectations. They won't go bankrupt over this.

I sense that there's a move in the backgrounds of the comics industry to get everyone out against Zack and Comicsgate. This really feels like Deja Vu from the GameJournosPros and the "Gamers are Dead" articles.

I wouldn't doubt that there's a private venue those retards plot moves in, and all we need is for someone to pop the balloon and leak things.
