10 Biggest Victories #GamerGate Has Achieved So Far
9. Funding Of The Fine Young Capitalists' Charity
One of the most celebrated victories of GamerGate and one of the most important. This charity, devoted to providing women with an opportunity to make games (and absolutely ignored by most mainstream gaming news sites), was given $23,601 from 4chans referral link, which was extensively linked to in GamerGate threads. As a result, the charity raised over $65,000 and is currently in the process of making their game. Detractors of GamerGate have insisted this was spite-funding, but for a group of supposedly hateful misogynists, this is very contradictory behaviour. In reality, TFYC was funded because they have a clear goal: they want more women in gaming, and instead of complaining to others about why it makes them sad, theyve taken the situation in their own hands and are attempting to solve it. This respectability is why they've increased in popularity lately.
