First they came for extremist gamers and I did nothing because… fuck those guys.
Extremist gamers as in? Playing Call of Duty while strapped to an aeroplane wing?
This article quotes Hasan Piker and thats all I needed to see to know everything I need to know about this article. Nobody should be quoting that guy as the authority on anything except for having the evident need to continually hear his own voice, and having some of the most hypocritical, worst takes I have ever heard in my life.
Hasan is a grifting fool who promotes socialism and communism and takes people’s donations but is already rich. His takes are complete garbage.
Hasan was quoted by this article because he was notably outspoken about the original gamergate, had the correct take on it, and the current trend is literally just an attempt at relitigating those same issues.
Here’s an exercise for you: can you name a single person on the planet that would more appropriate to quote on this issue than Hasan, and why?
Even if I accept and agree with the position in your comment, there isn’t.
People can choose to not donate to him. Also he does plenty of fundraisers.
Grifting is a strong word for someone that is very well educated and doesn’t just pick the mainstream position in every subject because it’s easy.
The man does good work let him earn some money from it.
Scratch under the surface of this, you find angry, noisy white boys who think the woke and feminism are coming for them…
