There aren't any conservative gaming websites that I know of. Most gaming sites are the equivalent of HuffPo or Jezebel.

I never really understood why, but it's true that it seems common that conservative show no interest in gaming.

I'll throw in my thoughts. I think Rock, Paper, Shotgun is a really good site, mostly because:

1. Doesn't talk about this SJW shit at all
2. Focuses on FPSs, which are my favorite genre at this point
3. Seems well written by people who are at least old enough to appreciate gaming history
4. Thinks STALKER: Call of Pripyat is the best horror game of all-time, which it is

It's kind of funny because I was kinda tempted to use her as the polar opposite of BreitBart, she often whine about pandering to the straight males and Breitbart often whine about pandering to minorities or gays

They use extremely petty examples for both of their propaganda.

Breitbart deals in opinion pieces, video game sites deal in news. They are incomparable.

Extremes generally equate to the same, especially where those guys are concerned. I guess if you are needing to be technically correct then it would make more sense to find a different example.

Is Destructoid pretty conservative? I don't really use video game news sites much at all, but I've enjoyed the few reviews/lists I've read on that site.

I dunno. Honestly when it comes to conservative vs liberal, for some reason I see Destructoid VS Siliconera. (Why Siliconera? Because I said RE5 sucked and was permabanned on that site)

No popular video game news outlet has a clear political leaning. Its not that they are above partisanship, but rather their is no need for it when reporting on the current events in gaming culture. How do you put a left or right spin when you are reporting on something such as an upcoming patch for Heroes of the Storm?

Even when it comes to SJW controversies that pop up in the gaming scene, sites like Kotaku or Destruction will report that there are waves being made by certain groups, but they never editorialize and pick sides.

Kotaku is extremely left and progressive.

Here, find me an article with a progressive agenda: http://kotaku.com/

If you could, let me know how many times you had to click "more stories" before you found something. I'd be curious on how deep you had to dig.

No. That truly needs elaborated on. I mean, you do realize that the KotakuInAction subreddit is not affiliated with Kotaku.com right?

I think he's trying to say Kotaku showed their SJWism, leftist/feminist/progressive/regressive bias, etc during Gamergate. Because they took a very firm anti-Gamergate stance early on, if I recall, and went with the "gamers hate women and minorities" nonsense.

I assume he's aware that KiA is the Gamergate subreddit and takes a pretty anti-SJW stance in general.

Breitbart is the gaming equivalent of Breitbart

Milo published an "article" there about Digimon that might have been the most pretentious thing I've ever read (and he also managed to compare himself to Hitler).

The Gamergate movement was synonymous with harassment and violence. You find me a gaming publication that was in a support of it, and I'll show you the Breitbart of video game news.

I feel like we're going to have differing opinions on Gamergate.

Eh...I had a couple paragraphs going, but I don't think I really feel like arguing about Gamergate again. It never goes anywhere. But if you want to know, I'm mostly sympathetic to Gamergate, but acknowledge some of them can be churlish.
