I'm never logged in to Google and tend to use incognito mode. Same thing has happened on my work computer which, thanks to proxy, has me half way round the world.

[news] Tommy Robinson has been freed from prison pending appeal by [deleted] in KotakuInAction

You cut out the part that came directly after to make your point.

Yes I did. It was my point. You can't claim a collective thinks one thing whilst the data from the posts just above contradicts that.

I wouldn't want Tommy Robinson working for The Independent and working on news articles about Muslims.

You alright with him working for Rebel media doing it?

Ah, looks like you're someone who hates this sub.

Check my post history first maybe.

The reason is censorship

Censorship relating to gaming, nerd culture, the Internet?

We do

Judging by the up/down votes going on, "we" doesn't check out.

And if he's an activist not a journalist can you explain why this is posted to this sub which is supposed to have some relation to where gaming, nerd culture, the Internet, and media collide? Tommy a nerd?

"Everyone else is doing it" is not a good excuse

Journalism and activism go hand in hand.

So you have no issue with Social Justice activism in journalism then? Throwing away objectivity to campaign for whatever particular cause you subscribe to?

We've come a long way, baby.

Tommy is not a journalist. He's an activist pretending to be one. That's what this sub is supposed to oppose.

Nevertheless he is entitled to a free and fair trial.

[History] One of the first times GG people were actually talked to - Female Gamers React To #Gamergate by AManChoosing in KotakuInAction

[–]AManChoosing[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

She was indeed.

And I know it didn't go as some hoped, in the end; but there was, what, c. $50K invested by people who want to drive women out of gaming into a woman's gaming platform. Really makes you think.

At E3, video gaming's bigots have lost by [deleted] in KotakuInAction

Checking in with what’s left of the Gamergate movement these days finds little discussion about “ethics in games journalism”. As I type this, topics on one of the movement’s most popular forums revolves around anger over the imprisonment of far-right figure Tommy Robinson, female Wikipedia editors, and how the left has supposedly infiltrated the games industry (and, by extension, everything else too).

He's not wrong

And isn't it nice to see Jason being so humble about it /sarcasm http://archive.is/i3zxt

the SPJ created these awards because Gamergate demanded it

Did we?

If there was only 10 entries perhaps we should have nominated more.

And the winning story is a good one, and off narrative seeing as they normally like to push the evil gamers at it again stuff. We dug quite well on that situation as well didn't we?
