Why does this matter?
This isn’t just about video games, though the current state of video game journalism is the most obvious form of this corruption. This is a methodology used throughout both the media and the academic institutions to consolidate power amongst a conspiratorial few, at the expense of not only the culture at large, but even the very followers who they claim to be representing. Recent evidence suggests they have far larger powers of censorship than anyone would suspect; this is what we want to uncover.
Why does this movie need to be made? Don’t you already have popular YouTube channels?
The Social Justice Warriors have come to dominate the discussion to such a degree that the mainstream media will only acknowledge their side of the story. The official story as reported by mainstream news outlets is that a small group of brave activists (Ms. Sarkeesian outstanding among them) have been targeted with death threats, rape threats, cyberbullying, misogyny, racism, and other mistreatment for daring speak out against the white-male dominated gaming community.
We intend to shed light on the truth: that the SJWs have been the ones using manipulation and intimidation to push their agenda forward and that the mainstream media has accepted their story uncritically. Constructive criticism is not harassment. Pointing out that someone is factually wrong is not misogyny. Finding fault with a person’s unethical behavior is not stalking. There are two sides to every story and we intend for the mainstream media to finally acknowledge ours.
You’re both white men- is this some kind of pro-whitey project?
No. The SJWs have set up a “white straight cis male” bogey man to rally against and we are not here to defend their fictional creation. We welcome persons of all genders, races, sexual orientations and nationalities to be a part of this project.
Are you guys MRAs?
No. We are not MRAs (Men’s Rights Activists.) We reject their stance and ideology along with the binary notion that anyone who disagrees with the SJWs is an MRA by default.
Are you guys just doing this to harass Anita Sarkeesian?
No. Anita Sarkeesian and her campaign of misinformation will be central to our film but everything we do will be safe, professional, and above all, legal. The lie that Ms. Sarkeesian has perpetuated is that there is no legitimate criticism of her views whatsoever and that anyone who disagrees with her is harassing her. This, among many other falsehoods, will be debunked in our film.
What are you going to do?
We are going to create a completely professional and insightful feature length documentary film. We intend for there to be a theatrical release, DVD and Blu-Ray, and streaming media such as Netflix.
Your contribution will allow us to finance this project and produce a high quality result comparable to the best current documentary films.
How will you be spending the budget?
Our goal is to make a professional-quality film, and that involves not only ourselves and airfare, but crew, experts and consultants, as well as many other incidental expenses. This is going to be a challenging film to make, and we will be going up against entrenched interests. We will be keeping you updated with monthly progress videos, as well as our conversations with you on the forums.
