This all just a gay op masterminded by Jarbo and Sargon.
- Create Weeb Wars-style drama with false rape allegations.
- Call it GamerGate 2.0.
- Become relevant again.
Now is the perfect time for Chelsea and Anita to call up Sargon of Akkad to drum up some fake controversy. It's clear they all want another Gamergate.
All joking aside, I think all of this is far too neat to just be coincidence. Every name involved is either a broke "literally who" from Gamergate, or some click bait journalist. Even the accused are nobodies known for nothing in particular. The one exception is the guy who worked on Night in the Woods.
Even the month is the same as Gamergate. If there wasn't the whole Voidpoint shitstorm happening I think they'd have released this post on the anniversary of Gamergate.
I'm going to take a step back and look at this from the long term. Zoe's gigs have been drying up. The comic was good for her, but now that's over, and there was even speculation in this thread about what her next grift could be. She can't do another kickstarter because unlike RebalJam and her other crowdfunders, the Chuck Tingle scam never went away.
We know that entire clique is broke. The few that have money are completely irrelevant. They're done. We know the attempts by the press to grab power and influence have failed. Sites are shutting down left and right, Jim Sterling was last seen begging for contacts and trying to troll the Dark Souls community, Anita Sarkeesian has a podcast no one cares about.
I think, from what I laid out in this wall of text, that this is a set up. They want to get their #metoo moment (and victim bux), while they still have some sliver of a chance of making it work, and before the debt collectors come knocking.
But here's where they fucked up. Up until now, anti-gamergate avoided trouble because they kept everything vague. Everything was either in the realm of opinion (This game/person is sexist) or they targeted vague entities like hashtags (I got bomb threats from gamergate). Now these idiots are naming specific people.
I doubt it'll happen, but if these guys have any sense, they should be archiving every tweet and article about them and talking to a lawyer.
