    Critique?
    This would be like me, and 1000 of people in my group 'Critiquing' your post by saying:
    I WANT TO FUCKING RAPE YOU IN THE ASS THEN KILL YOU, YOU POOR EXCUSE FOR A CUM STAIN.
    Then posting your address online, and have people scream at you as they drive by.

    See how that isn't really a critique on your post?

    GG being about journalism is what they made up to try and control the mainstream press's view on what is going on.

    You have either fallen for it because your too biased to actual research it's history, or you are stupid. IN any case, you are being a worthless human being.

    You want better journalism in the game industry? good. I'll even subscribe. However, you will need to separate yourself and stop making excuses for those thugs.

    NO. Gamersgate is about hate and death threats. IT's plainly obvious.

    The journalism thing was made up on the fly when conronted with main stream media.

    The story they used to do that was based on lies a jilted lover spread.
    There was no review of her game from her boyfriend.

    They also have exactly NO CLUE about journalism in general, or entertainment journalism
    I have watched this whole thing. my daughter wants to be a game developer, so the issue is very important to me.
    If they where really about the gaming industry journalism, I would be their biggest flag waiver.
    They are not. They are about hate.

    GG harassment patrol is just as bad as GG.
    I've seen the attacking people for just talking about gamergate. Saying they have a 'festuring vagina' when the person asks them to stop posting to there thread.

    1) Gamergate is not. nor has it ever, been about game journalism.
    2) People in GG who are trying to making it a journalism issue for an excuse for their misogyny,, they don't even understand journalism.

    Gamergate is about hate. Hate of anyone looking at games for a critical point. Hate of women who just want people to understand that women are often just symbols to save and sex objects. They organized to pollute data scientist want to collect about gamers.
    And it's not a few people in the group. Gamersgate was STARTED on hate and lies.
    If you are concerned about decent game journalism, then start something else and stop associating with people who organize death threats.
    They attacked me for listing fact about GG with screen shots.

    Incorrect.
    ", GMO has failed big time. Cross pollination has already carried the Roundup resistant genes,"
    That makes zero sense.
    That's like saying 'Cars have failed big time. The pinto had a higher risk of explosion when rear ended.'

    The issues about GMO need to be looked at individual. They have been overwhelmingly successful as a group.
    Most people don't mind, especially in countries where they need food. What we have is the scientifically illiterate making things up and using FUD. Those people need to stop.

    The IRS is behaving intelligently, and it's a policy they need to keep.
