    Gamergate had ties to DARPA for psychological operations, outsourcing projects until it was clear of government connection. Video games surpassing movies as the new Psy-Op platform...and several years before that the DHS bought enough ammo to fight an Iraq war.

    He fell for the Psy-Op...he wants the civil war the deepstate wants too.

        >if
        I dont have the link to the GamerGate connection, was many years ago, but some anons traced its origins to some thinktank. Thats how CIA ops work, openly and labeled as "private" but the director or funding will eventually lead to some agency.

        I remember reading some article about CIA connections in Fortune 100 companies, how the author was shocked how there was always some cadre from an agency at the board of directors facilitating connections or influence. That the line between Agency and Private blurs at the top, play or be sunk.

        I mean...its been proven at Twitter, Facebook, and many others. To think they wouldnt tap into video games now that people dont care about movies or Hollywood?

      I think you've got your facts mixed up. It was Gamergate's opposition that had connections with DARPA.

        But in all seriousness its common for the Agency to be so compartmentalized as it to be easy to promote both sides and use the "winner" as the new vector.

        From what I remember the purpose wasnt social engineering but the psychological interaction of games themselves as a media type and the whole "feminist" aspect was a byproduct of the people they hired and not the purpose of it.

            They reject "Chud-stuffs" until its so cool as to make one willing to to go to war over...then it must be pretty cool so they join.

            Vidya, Magic: The Gathering, D&D, theyve infested all of it as outsiders who now alter the environment to fit their topical opinions on life, thus repulsing the original enjoyers.

            Eventually it becomes so altered as to be rejected by everyone, and with that disco is dead.

          Pure moronation. The demoralizing shills are probably proud that you're continuing their tradition of spouting absolute bullshit in an attempt to revise history. And I'm not sure if the fact that you're doing this to stroke your ego by talking about something you clearly know nothing about, actually makes you worse.

        Jeez...I sometimes forget how low IQ much of the deepstate is, how surface level and detached from intuited common sense it can be. The thing I remember was much more in line with respectable psychological study of what makes a game worth fighting and dying for, all that modern political shit wasnt mentioned.

        But...big angencies have room for both...

    Philosopher kings fail because they do not meet all the criteria of a king.
    Kings fail to be philosophers because they do not meet the criteria of being a philosopher.
    A king must be strong, ambitious, quick witted but also charismatic, lovable, and just.
    A philosopher must be intelligent, logical, knowledgable, but also humble/willing to learn, disciplined.

    To put both into one person means to have all of these qualities, a feat never achieved in all of history. It is easier instead to just have a brute hire an adviser.
