I gazed into the abyss so you don't have to. I visited /r/KotakuInAction and a few related chud places to get their take on the Activision/Blizzard issue (hexbear.net)

They collectively agreed on one thing, it seemed: the reason for all of the harassment, assaults, and overall rape culture (among the ones that could accept that it happened, of course) was "numale beta cucks." That's right, low testosterone feminist arglebargle boogeymen were responsible for it all. If they pounded down enough le bacon and had lumberjack beards and binge watched Jordan Peterson like they were supposed to, they'd "just make good games."

That latter part isn't hyperbole. These chuds concluded that manly Mad Men men would just focus on making good games. :agony-4horsemen:

all the gullible people who actually swallowed the "ethics in game jouranlism" meme eventually caught on and left. it's just the burnt grease at the bottom of the pan now.

I always found the "Ethics in Games Journalism" thing incredible bc most games "Journalism" was either directly funded by publishers or relied heavily on gifts and freebies from publishers. It was always bullshit but it was such brazen bullshit that it was breathtaking.
