The Serena defenders are invoking every "alt-right/GG talking point" they have been bitching about for the past 3-4 years without a hint of irony. Now they are absolving Serena of all responsibility for her fans' actions because she did not "cultivating her fan base" and "fans have agency".

How many times have they raked any person of prominence over the coals because some fan of theirs did something ERA didn't like? Why didn't Total Biscuit get this sweet deal? Or Pewdepie? Or Boogie? Just further proof these people have no principles and will adopt almost any position as long as it justifies their preconceived hatred towards that person in their minds. Hypocrisy and double standards be damned.

Another update.

About two weeks ago me and my friend went to pick up our belongings from work since they don't ship it.

After waiting around for 30 minutes, security got back to us and said since it had been so long, the belongings had been thrown away.

I emailed corporate HR raising a fuss about not being given a warning that our stuff would be destroyed, and lo and behold today me and him both received text messages from local HR saying they had our belongings and we can pick it up tomorrow.

Red Mercury suggests the ref should have shut up and listened

It depends on the situation. In a game with the 2 best women's tennis players in the world for all the marbles, one of whom has struggled to overcome racism and sexism for years and one who has and has many years of that ahead of her, and I'm a man in a position of authority, I'm going to take that into consideration. Any professional setting where I have an opportunity to hear a woman out who is clearly passionate about the subject and isn't like an immediate threat to my safety or something, why not? Take a breath, hear her out, it's not the end of the world.

User Banned (Duration Pending): Junior phase account trolling and downplaying diversity and inclusivity efforts.

These characters aren't white because that's what's best for the story. They are white because the racist history of America(and the rest of the world) dictated that they should be. So as the world moves beyond those racist ideals, and creators have more diverse audiences, then they should show some love to those audiences in the way of representation..

Please tell me about racist history of Poland and who was on short end of receiving stick.

User banned (duration pending admin review): racism, inflammatory accusation

you see who's in government these days? and the rise of neo-nazis and heavy anti-black and anti-black racism pervading Polish society?

If anything, Poland needs a big dose of distilled blackness into their white veins to get accustomed to a non-white world.

I think I'm going to vomit. Are you a black supremacist?

You are going to vomit because he thinks Poland would be better with more diversity? What??

Every society improves the more diverse it is. Diversity is a fantastic thing. The less homogeneous we are the better we are as a culture and people. This proven time and time again.

User banned (duration pending) for: defending racism

Geez Cheebo

I read the same thing that he wrote and get it completely different, stop distorcing completely what he said and playing the victim to put the other like some devil.

And yet you again completely distorced what the other said for a good thing. The other didn't said "Hey diversity is a good thing u know?" was more like "These *** pollands needs tho chill the f down and accept their culture being changed, we are america baby", that was nothing friendly and didn't contribute either.

I just can't read someone distorce others words and say anything, sorry to the others. I hope I didn't get a ban just for this, cuz after you read certanly I'll ignore u, just hate all kind of injustice.

Saying the idea of a country getting a lot more black makes him want to vomit is racist. Extremely racist. He capped it off by throwing out an extremely racist attack like "black supremacist".

Stop. Explaining. Away. Racism.

It's becoming a shame calling oneself a gamer these days. Grown men acting like a bunch a babies.

Tbf, gamer gate is losing relevancy

No, it really isn't. I really wish this was the case, but it isn't.

How can you say that with the recent shit shows at ArenaNet and Riot?

I don't think those have anything to do with gamer gate. The people in question were fired over their choice of words, not because of a 4 year old hate movement.

You can blame conservatives/people with socially (far?)-right ideologies, maybe, but the ultimate blame lies with the employees who unfortunately couldn't keep their cool.

The audience is a bit different from the US one where they don't actually care about your well thought out piece, they just want to see what score you gave to their favorite game so they can dunk on you without even reading it in the first place.

So...not a bit different than the U.S. and is exactly the same.

Response to the OP:

So basically you hated your audience and your audience hated you?

I feel like if you enter an industry where your success depends on positive interaction with an audience then starting out with contempt for that audience is not going to work out well in most cases.

Not excusing attacks and harassment at all, those people can fuck off, but it still seems pretty clear to me that you despised the audience even for the terrible crime of being interested only in the score you give the game.

Surely the first thing a content creator needs to understand is that positive engagement with their target audience is going to be an important factor in achieving success.  It feels like you fundamentally failed in this regard.

"I fucking hate Gamers sooooo.... I think I'll become a games journalist"

I mean, what came first here, the chicken or the egg?

To be clear here you aren't complaining about the workload or the working hours.  Workl-life balance isn't even worth a mention.

You are complaining about the pay, sure.  Complaining that you can't make a name for yourself.

However, the main crux of your argument is that you hated the target audience.  Like, how can you make a name for yourself when you basically don't like the ONLY people who could facilitate that?

So did you hate them going in or did you grow to hate them based on their, admittedly shitty and unacceptable, actions?

I fundamentally do not agree that it's "impossible" to make a name for yourself but rather would say that you need to find your audience and starting out with "I hate the audience but I want to be popular with them" is kind of... fucked up?

He didn't say he hated his audience...WTF?

Have you ever had someone older than you notice something gaming related you have and talk to you about their old habits? Does it usually end with, "Heh, well now that I have kids. I don't have time for stuff like that anymore."

Sure, life gets in the way and is more important than anything else, but if you really loved gaming, you'd try to make time for it, right? I'm getting older and I don't spend nearly as much time gaming as I used to, but I still make an effort because it's something I love.

How do your conversations go when you speak with someone like this? (Or are you like this?)

Definitely.  Stop taking care of your families, doing your jobs, handling your responsibilities, or just straight-up being too tired from doing shit because you need to go PWN N00BZ in CoD right fucking now. 

I don't hang out with normies. So i have no idea.

Sure I could play more than what i do now but its just that im into making money, looking and feeling great, i am already a millionaire but i want to have $40millions or more (i will have that money), i look better now than what i used to in my late 20s and 30s, i feel great, i look great.

It's hard to imagine the thought that cancelling Norm's appearance is very good optics didn't cross their minds. The guy is literally the best talkshow guest of all time, the fact that he was shunned to avoid any shade of controversy is staggering.
