I can't believe Klepek has a wife and a kid. Apparently he proposed to her at the premiere of Evil Bong 666.

Of course he's the typical massive Disney sperg as these "intellectuals" usually are.

I wonder if he ever had relations with Zoe, there was certainly opportunity and motive.

I mean he isn't terrible looking or repulsive like Will Usher and still have his industry connections unlike other victims of the journalism industry who didn't get a clue that the days of living like they are still in the early 90's to 2000's era of gaming where porn stars and models were on the casting couches n the studios of game developers. Still for a guy who has been dating for years to get repulsed by what amounts to be a Maxim/Sports illustrated video is giving me midlife crisis vibes from the guy.

Edit: Yes Disney is an investor

Liz Ryerson: "but fuck you if you get to make a career out of being a shit to people"

Bitch, that's what fucking 95% of the gaming industry/troon commentariat do. It's just you think they're being a shit to the right people, so it's OK. In those very tweets she's being a shit to a dead man, and then claiming that's her being nice.

They really have no ability to see themselves from the outside, do they. Or at least if they can they don't care that they're hypocrites on an Olympic level.

And that's where the pseudo-Marxist intersectionalism comes in, for these exceptionals - it follows the familiar pattern of "This group good, this group bad, this identity sinful, this one beatific, give money for absolution"; I have no idea what the mechanism that makes this appealing to them is, but it's the only explanation I have for the phenomenon.

I think that there's a certain percentage of the population predisposed to what we could call religious thinking. I suspect that Dawkins, Hitchens, et al. thought that they were gaining ground against religion as Christianity started to wane in the West, but they failed to realize that people weren't becoming more rational, merely that those predisposed to religious thinking would find a new way of expressing it. As you point out, Marxism has many of the same underpinnings. The only difference is that Marxism seems to promise paradise on Earth and in this lifetime, which is perhaps what makes it so much more insidious.

Maybe my aging memory is failing me, but I could've sworn Klepek was one of the infamous "five guys" from the Zoe post. Didn't his wife openly call out Blowy for banging her husband?

It's making me feel like a semi-normal person that I can't exactly remember this detail for sure.

This gaming blog thinks the Waypoint article I posted a few days ago is considered "good writing on games:" https://www.critical-distance.com/2019/04/21/april-21st-2/

Patrick Klepek has actively shilled Critical Distance for years. Critical Distance has written about Patrick Klepek 83 times over the course of years.

Wow, a 2012 reference to Patrick Klepek and Manveer Heir in the same sentence. It's almost like the incestuous gamejourno-clique is real.

Oh wait, Waypoint actually has Critical Distance write articles then. Effectively making the article from critical-distance a form of brown nosing your boss who got you the gig.

@Jaimas Did Patrick Klepek ever actually work with Silverstring Media?

Officially? No.

Unofficially? Fuck the hell yes. He was a mainstay of the GJP list and we know from leaks from CON and various auxillary material that Zoe Quinn and Feminist Frequency were in collusion ages before GG happened, which means, paired with how GJP was actively running interference on Quinn's behalf, odds are strong he was directly involved.

It's not like he wasn't involved in worse at the time. Critical Distance also employed Alex Lifschitz during his infamous defense of Zoe Quinn during the outset of GG, so if you don't think he was actively involved I have a bridge to sell you.

Out of curiosity, does anyone have a screenshot of how much patron money Critical Distance gets monthly?
