ThunderClaps: The Faces of #GamerGate & #OPRaptor: @TechRaptr lvls Up! https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/33719-the-faces-of-gamergate First up: There is a constant and false narrative in many news articles that GamerGate is solely young, straight, white, males. The truth is people of all ethnicities, backgrounds, ages, and orientations support transparency and ethics in games journalism and throughout the media. We're tired of the shoddy standards of journalism in the multi-billion dollar industry that we call out hobby and we see these standards throughout news media. It's time for things to change. Games media is NOT the place for any one ideology to trumpet their personal biases. We've been here for 14 months and we continue to stand for truth, transparency, balance, and ethics in games journalism. https://www.thunderclap.it/projects/32907-opraptor-techraptr-lvls-up Second: I was in talks with Techraptor a few days ago, as they expressed the reason they weren't on OpenCritic was due to being below the follower threshold on Twitter. Been on Twitter for a bit, thought I'd chuck some ideas around and see who was interested. I also told the company Twitter I'd start a campaign and post results, so here we are, talking about #OPRaptor. Another hashtag campaign. Woo-hoo! This is going extremely well, and could keep going and building steam. We should be celebrating right now! Dialogue is happening, good alt media is getting the spotlight. Now let's amplify it, and get them above threshold by the end of November. All this Thunderclap needs is 500 people willing to link a FB, Tumblr, or Twitter account, and have this thing post an update on your behalf. Let's do this! Show your support for both of them and get as many people as possible to show their support as well.
