So Innuendo Studios, the guy responsible for that This Is Phil Fish video a while back, just finished a new series: Why Are You So Angry. It's about the mentality and tactics of Gamergate supporters and Internet Anger Culture in general.
It's a six part series:
Part One: A Short History Of Anita Sarkissian
Part Two: Angry Jack
Part Three: Perception Is Everything
Part Four: An Autopsy of Gamergate
Part Five: "The Good Guy"
Part Six: Talking To Angry Jack
Post Release Blog Post: Talking To Jack, It Turns Out, Is Complicated
I think it's a really great series that deserves more attention. It definitely made me think more about why people on the Internet get so intensely defensive and angry about things that seem relatively minor, and it's also one of the best examinations of the Sarkessian backlash and Gamergate that I've seen. As someone who was definitely at one point young and angry and wanted to be understood by everyone, the Angry Jack character seems pretty on-point.
