I (LISTEN AND) BELIEVE
Ever since 2012
I tried to be PC
So what happened?
My family and friends
All gave trophies to me
So what happened?
It was supposed to be all so informal
To hear Anita's messages coming to me
But I allowed myself to be normal
Oh, what's the matter with me?
I've always longed to hate other white men
I had my victim cards prepared
This was the time to check my privilege
And tell women why they should be scared
A /v/ board who doesn't hate their sex or race
What's so triggering about that?
I must trust that Anita's a victim
And Zoe and Wu as well
Now I must shit on all the gamers
When Sunset fails to sell
I believe that Sarkeesian does her own research
I believe that she's put in lots of work to meet her Kickstarter goals
And I believe that violence represents an oppressive patriarchal paradigm!
I am a White Knight
And I listen and believe
You cannot avoid the hard truth
Like Samus having balls
My problem was not using Patreon
Instead of scamming all
I can't be allowed to think for myself
It's time to shill my friends for free
Time to tell women that they need my help
To overcome internalized misogyny
I believe that Gone Home is a modern masterpiece
I believe that every game needs to be just like it
And I believe that Anita is an expert on depictions of women in video games
I am a White Knight
And dangit, I listen and believe
I know that I must only buy
The games Anita likes
I realize that what she says is true
Myself I flagellate
For my privilege, every day
And I can't let myself become like you
(Anon, we have a shill. He just posted a new thread.)
I believe that you oppress PoC and womyn
I believe that m'lady has sent me here
And I believe that in 2012 Anita changed her mind about video games
You can be a White Knight
And just listen and believe
(What the fuck is this?)
And now I can feel you hating
As GooberGlorpers are prone to do
And I feel so euphoric
To be talking shit about you
Brianna says that if you hate her game
It's all misogyny, you know
And you must accept that #GG's to blame
For all of gaming's woes
I believe that Anita is a lifelong gamer
I believe that walking sims and Twine stories are swell
And I believe that the imageboards are cathedrals of misogyny
If you believe, you'll admit you're oppressive
And you'll stop being gaming obsessives
You'll be a White Knight
And, by gosh, we listen and believe
I believe
I believe
