I can count on the fingers of one hand the times I've discussed civilly with gaters. They're mostly here, and they still won't admit they lack basic English comprehension, like you. On the other hand, the times I've been insulted by GG, told by them I was a beta faggot, a cuck, a "needle dicke" (sic.), a race traitor (some latin-american in GG) , a sexist pig (that one from a woman in GG. Apparently, telling her GG was not doing much good means I'm sexist), a paedo face (really...)... the list goes on, and on, and on.[url=http://meincmagazine.com/civis/viewtopic.php?p=28319581#p28319581:2it3a8r3 said:Joao Sousa[/url]":2it3a8r3]I said a mob isn't rational.

You are expecting a mob to act rationaly? Ok...
That works for me.
Reducing gamergate to death threats and slurs is falacious.Yes, he's calling a spade a spade. What GG does to AS, ZQ, etc. is not "engaging". Sending death threats and slurs is not "engaging".

What, (s)he doesn't speak for all of us?
Right. I've heard that one before.
What I'm saying is that it takes literally one person hating gamergate to come up with a shitpost to post on a messageboard to then wave in front of the masses as "proof" that they are evil.

Dude, I was there 30 years ago. Gamers were on average socially inept male teenagers who disliked girls because they rejected them. The transition to gaming being a common and socially accepted pastime may happened maybe about 10 years ago.
I was there 30 years ago too. Of course there were socially inept teenagers involved in gaming, just as there are today. That said, if you actually looked at the statistics on game purchases, the average gamer was late-20s to early-30s and had a decent income. The stereotype then was just as inaccurate as it is now.
You know why that is? Because I was there as well, and I'm pretty sure that my parents, like a lot of other gamers my age, were buying the games for me. They're going to have a better income than I, as an underage child, would have.
A very convenient response that let's you ignore data that doesn't fit into how you see the world. Whatever helps you feel good about your stereotypes, I guess.
