Zoe Quinn: This isn't a dumpster fire. It is a barn fire. Holy, crap.



Things are getting crazy in the SJW and indie gaming community. People who were long-time allies during GG are now turning on each other. Zoe Quinn accused an indie game dev of misconduct and named names. Literally, things are happening as I write this post.
As much as I hate Zoe Quinn, I am starting to believe her story. The issue is the accused man (Alec Holowka) hasn't made a statement denying it. He retreated into his shell and protected his tweets. (His company Twitter is still up.)If someone makes damaging statements like these, he should have come forward and made a counter statement. And, he should have hired a lawyer for defamation against Quinn. He did none of this. If he doesn't come forward and prove her wrong, his career in gaming is completely over. If Quinn's allegations are false, and we know Quinn lies, he needs to combat them.
We are already seeing the fallout. Companies are cutting ties with Holowka. Given that these “woke” allies tend to turn out to be creeps, I am leaning toward Quinn's side for now. These pale/skinny men claim to be woke but are usually very controlling and abusive toward women. Here the thing; Quinn could be making this up. We just have to wait and see. Will Alec fall on his sword for the greater good or will he defend himself?  Get your popcorn ready.



Before companies start deleting and canceling Alec.
