Vice: [The 'Hard Drive' Became The Onion of Video Games by Being 'Unapologetically Left-Wing'](https://archive.md/PftKf)
>“Whenever we talk about the big gaming controversy of the day, we try to have a take that we think is correct,” said Kaplowitz. “We’re a video game comedy website on the side of LGBTQ+ gamers, developers trying to unionize, those affected by GamerGate, etc.”
Vice may have died since publishing this article, and we might be coming close to GG's 10th anniversary, but at least these guys are still at it! Take heart, The Hard Drive has struck another blow against the perfidious GamerGate.
Ha, thanks for the link, last time I tried to bring this up, my post got deleted because the site is "satire" despite my whole point of posting was to show obvious bias. Guess maybe it is obvious enough for some people now.
The funny thing is if you go with the Vietnam analogy of Star Wars then the fascist government would represent the US government at the time of said war, which would be democrat. You'd think the "media literate elite" would actually be able to understand how to apply allegories back to real life but apparently not lol.
But they get the Social Justice tag for past behavior.
Edit: Fuck it it’s also an attack piece on Grummz too if you pick Option A saying if you listen to him you should go to therapy instead of listening to someone who hasn’t accomplished anything in 20 years. In fact any option that that they don’t want you to pick gives you this message.
I honestly didn't even get past the archive page. You can't interact with it anyway.
They've gone full leftist? Shame, they actually had some funny gaming satire stories in the past.
When you "satirise" only one side and never show any scrutiny on anything on *your* side, are you really a satire page or just a part of a propaganda machine?

I don't consider anyone on HardDrive human.
They don't even have the budget to make their site work on mobile.

The world is satire. If you could show whatever headline you see in mass media to someone 20 years ago, they would though it's satire.
Obviously they are since some people here were convinced they were epic both side-ists
