GG is not about "ethics" and never has been. It's about pathetic little shit attempting to cover their misogynist little asses in a thin veneer of respectability. It was started by a guy trying to get revenge on his ex by slut-shaming her, and If you look at excepts of how this whole "movement" got started (complete with calling feminists "cunts" and male feminist supports "Betafags"
, you'll see that they carefully talk about how they have to avoid direct attacks on feminism and instead empahsize the "ethics" angle. Of course, their "ethics" claim falls flat too, when you consider that the original review that was supposed to be at the heart of this "scandal" DOES NOT EXIST.
So, look into it objectively, And be sure to not ignore the death and rape threats delivered in the most vile and violent tones. And be sure to pay attention to how they talk down about "Social Justice Warriors," as if fighting for equality were somehow akin to necrophilia.
Fuck GGers. There is perhaps some Payola happening in the games industry, but this movement did not start out about that, and at the very least, it has the strong whiff of misogyny associated with it.
