Liberals don't need to organize if they can shit their ideas in public without issue

Yeah, so suppose all the liberals like Tim and the IDW move right.

They don't have the assets to continue speaking.

we agree, GG was big but there's no political movement (organized) or community out of it

And there is a lack of organization to create said assets.

GG had some momentum. They sent Kotaku's advertisers running.

But they failed to convert it into anything really long term.

and the media managed to poison it

I think that's part of it

Like, it had an effect--we probably wouldn't have Kanye endorsing the assistant to TPUSA without it.

But nothing really long term happened.

Yeah, fair. But what do you intend to do about it?

Complain about the media?

To a little GG circle?

There's not really any pressure.

GG helped birth media alternatives, they were just restricted to vidya

Because GG was done for social and financial reasons, not political

I changed my plan to an easier one

What alternatives?

every time I hear about these alternatives they've either turned or failed.

Techraptor got its initial numbers through GG, so did Nichegamer

Well the issue is that ultimately you need to be prepped to dump what doesn't work

It's difficult and constant. There's no long term cure

I moved to Japan, everything will be fine here as long as they don't manage to poison it. Conservatives here are in high number at least.

I can agree to dump the bad options. But this is the first time I heard of nichegamer and I've seen KiA complain about TechRaptor.

Also a surprising number of the GG formed sources are still active

People complained about TR because they threw Micah under the bus, which was garbage

But outside of that one instance they've been decent

So here's the thing.

I missed the initial GG wave. I never heard about this. If they are going to be an effective alternative, you *must* drive traffic.

This wasn't part of the initial wave though

The left refers to it as "signal boosting" and it must be easy to find and constant.

This was part of the results

initially, I didnt care about GG. Because I never consumed Game News

And nichegamer is probably not going to be super broad appeal because it is, at the end of the day, focused on a lot of niche weebshit

they always been shit

anime is the way for the right to win 😏

It hurts smaller devs tho

even if you dont like it

Who get blacklisted

4chan was born with anime

And now /a/ is one of the worst boards

free speech has a lot of connections with anime too
