He's being investigated and the claims are being taken seriously by the company so if they end up digging up dirt on him it will be true, I won't dispute that.

The main problem I'm taking issues with are the people claiming that women indie devs are in any way going to be harmed by bringing up their evidence with Polygon, which is as far left of a videogame website you are going to find. If serious evidence was brought against him I think they would have investigated no matter who it was. Any woman could say no to Nick Robinson and blocked him and they would be safe. He is not the only writer for Polygon and he has no power over what the other writers cover. The only people who would harass you over it would be uninformed or spiteful fans and they shouldn't even be involved in the first place. Women have been more protected in this industry from unsolicited flirting than ever before.

It feels a lot like people are waving their arms around screaming about fire before a match has even been struck. This is just proving my thought that companies should keep their fucking Twitter feeds shut until something actually happens, especially with everyone dancing around the subject while the popcorn stands are calling for his fucking blood despite accusations being vague at best.
 
The whole "paying for coverage" argument doesn't even make sense really considering that Nick was Polygon's video producer, not a reviews or news editor.

He'd have righteously piled on to somebody else on the same "evidence". How does your own medicine taste, Nick?

Also, takeaway message for progressive "men": being attracted to a woman and expressing it is really all the evidence they need to have your vestigial balls in a vice forever, it will become abuse and pre-rape on a whim. Lol.
 
I was wondering if this was gonna show up on the farms. Tumblr has been sperging about this nonstop. The "callout culture" marches on.

I feel like the folks coming out to condemn him are doing it not only out of personal belief but also to save their own asses. The kids on tumblr were looking at the McElroys for validation before Griffin spoke out.

Its a bunch of unproven nonsense and until Polygon figures it out I'm not sure I'm about to take any solid stance on it.

I read every word of this thread and I have no clue what he's being accused of.

You're not supposed to know. You're supposed to just LISTEN AND BELIEVE.

There's nothing he can do. He can truthfully say he didn't do anything, they're false claims with no proof, but he'll be eaten alive.

Because denying that you're a creephat is further proof that you're a creephat. Otherwise, why are you denying it? Guilty conscience?

Fuck me, there hasn't been this level of kafkatrapping since the days of the Bloody Code.
 
Let's face it. Almost anyone that're part of Polygon are non-trustful and very few are autists providing fake details.
 
Intelligent Calcium powiedział(a):
I don't think anyone is really defending him, it's just that this would play out the same whether he was innocent or not. Someone already pointed this out, be we can only win - either people get salty because another SJW ally turned out to be a predator or this guy's life gets ruined over nothing because he laid with snakes. Funny either way.

It doesn't even matter now whether it's fake or not. Because the REEEEing must be sated regardless now. This is what you get for cavorting with SJWs. You get what's coming to you.

Gaming journalism.:lol:
 
"Male feminist ally" is just the evolution of "Nice Guy"

Fourth wavers and their 'inclusivity of allies' are dumber than rocks

"Allies" means, basically, in SJW speak, an uncritical asspatter. If you, as a FUCKING A WHITE MALE, criticise anything a feminist or other activist does, justified or not, you're not being a good ally. When in reality, criticising people who are acting like a twunt for their own good is the definition of good allyship.

"I wouldn't drink the bleach if I were you Anita."

"HOW DARE YOU deny my reality you problematic rapist!"
 
a male feminist who's a massive creep and potentially a rapist? say it ain't so!

seriously though, any man who voluntarily joins that cult either has an awful lot to hide and wants to publicly repent for his sins, or is pathetic beyond belief (or some combination of the two)
 
Terror Rism powiedział(a):
if griffin mcelroy didn't immediately say SOMETHING nice about Nick or defend him in any way, you know there's something up for sure
guy seems nice almost to a fault with people he likes and considering he's a longtime real-life friend with Nick it's unlikely he'd be so willing to throw him under the bus over rumors

rip tho, coolgames inc and a lot of his youtube content was great. patreon or the irrelevance grave now

that or Griffin doesn't want his career to get fucked over by defending him.

I really do not like the 'respect their privacy uwu' bullshit because then it sounds like it wasn't just one sided i.e. 'I decided it was rape after consenting to sex because I regret it or want to fuck someone over.'

He was never quite as overbearing as the types who use being an "ally" to excuse their sordid pasts. Like, compare and contrast somebody like Devin Faraci, who could never publicly shut up about how much of a good ally he really was, to Nick; who generally keeps his politics out of his work and out of his public Twitter presence. Still caved and subscribed to the mentality, definitely, but I never quite got the air of him trying to cover his own ass when looking at his tweets retrospectively; like you do with the full-on sex offender male allies.

I also think it's worth pointing out - this whole drama storm kicked off over him disagreeing with Team 17, who were responsible for the whole "JonTron removed from Yooka-Laylee" shitstorm earlier this year. Really makes you think.
 
Another male feminist/gaming "journalist" bites the dust. Pretty soon all that will be left in the feminist movement are men playing women and black feminists.
