GG Triggerhappy: How to look smart
Recently, a popular spanish gaming youtuber started to make videos promoting feminism in games, and repeating the same ideas as Anita sarkeesian, like cultivation theory. You know, the one that has been debunked a miriad times and has no single study to support it. That one.
His fans are now up to arms and he’s receiving a dialectic beating from all directions, with tons of video responses, since most people are not buying his shit. But what is funnier to me is that people apparently didn’t see it coming. They all make comments like “he was not like this before, he has started now because of feminist friends” (and let me tell you, i know some of those friends and they’re the worst pieces of shit in Spain). But the thing is, i saw his videos first time about 4 years ago, and i already called this out, cause i saw it coming a mile away. He was the kind to purposedly use obtuse language and academic terms out of place to look smart, in circumstances where it didn’t belong, and prone to say that “he didn’t agree with Sarkeesian”, to then proceed to agree with her on everything.
I even said, at the time, he was gonna be dangerous, cause this kind of people gather an audience by giving a false appereance of inteligence using terms like “ludonarrative dissonance”, which are ok in some circumstances ( i use the term when talking about psychology with people who understand it), but when used in casual conversation or videogame videos for youngsters are obviously not going to be understood, and are most likelly than not been used to look smart using a term you learned the other day by chance. And when they have that large audience they will proceed to indoctrinate their fanbase with their agenda, since they’ll be willing to accept anything they say. This is not the same as creating a channel ABOUT that topic and gathering an audience who want to hear about that ideology in videogames (like, let’s say, Liana K), this is instead a move intended to take advantage of how people tend to make their favourite youtubers a part of their identity, even considering them friends, and will be willing to believe and excuse anything they say.
It’s fortunate that he hasn’t know how to play this card properly and a big chunck of his audience has rejected it, but he has still satelites that have just swallowed it whole.
In a way, this only further confirms what i always say: Anything that happens in the US, comes to Spain multiplied a few years later. A lot of social justice stuff that appeared in the US 2 or 3 years ago is coming now to Spain with a vengeance, and in the recent months the topic of Gamergate and Women in games have arised to a point it looks like US 2014. Which means that all that has happened in the following 4 years is going to come now HARD.

I just looked up cultivation theory, and according to Wikipedia it says: “The primary proposition of cultivation theory states that the more time people spend ‘living’ in the television world, the more likely they are to believe social reality aligns with reality portrayed on television.”
I’d argue that SJW’s are a perfect example of this in action. I mean the media is constantly pushing BS like the Trump Russia collusion, that Nazis are everywhere, that women are perpetual victims, etc. And they honestly believe it.
Not to mention Anita’s entire career relies on it…
So in other words, it would seem it’s real, but since the media is strongly left leaning it just means the only people gullible enough to fall for it are far leftists.
I doubt the “honestly believe it” part a lot. Doublethink it, maybe. How many (even of pawns) honestly believe anything is an open question.
For one, gloamy warbling and other nonsense from watermelons is pushed in exactly the same way as nonsense from feminists, and mostly by the same crowd. They virtue-signal and drool at the smell of blood, sure. But they quite obviously don’t believe in it (except one moron, who became an hero) — after all, #GreensGoByAir.
Same deal with PETArds who kill puppies.
Do they “honestly believe” women are terribly oppresseded, if they get themselves castrated expecting increase in status with their crowd, and then try to become an hero when women don’t accept them as women?
(for an infamous example, that one: https://blog.jim.com/culture/pushing-back-on-social-justice-warriors/)
You forgot about wearing glasses and having a british accent. XD
It passes for academic blather so well because it’s made the same way from the same ingredients by the cooks who learned their first buzzwords from the same teachers. What’s the difference between a professional quack and an amateur quack?
Should not be surprising. https://medium.com/incerto/the-intellectual-yet-idiot-13211e2d0577
you mean dayoscript dont you? yeah i was a follower f him but then abandne his ship and i dont want to sound malicious but i see him as a #metoo meat in the future with how he kind of make joke of being stalker in one episode.
He has videos with things like “top 10 boobs in games” and things like that. Many male feminists push so hard the ideology because they feel its gonna win and they fear what will happen to them if they’re on the losing side with their past deeds.
There’s a spanish version of this comic tho xD
it would be more acurate if he was draw fat.
The tittle Is just a hoax. It Is not even a top. Not that the SJW will care.
