Kotaku – Internet & Digital Age Satirists – Free Thinker’s Bible

Kotaku, Free Thinker &Satirist

Kotaku is where gaming journalism meets satire – sometimes intentionally, sometimes not. Its articles have long blended genuine cultural critique with the kind of absurdity unique to gaming: fan rage, tech hype, and endless console wars. While not purely satirical, Kotaku’s best moments come when it mocks itself, its readers, and the multi-billion-dollar fantasy machine that is the gaming industry. It’s a freethinker’s loot box of irony, ethics, and digital dragons.


🧠 Rules for Free Thinkers from Kotaku

(Kotaku, Short. Sharp. Unforgivable.)

  1. Question Everything—Especially the Questions
    If the answer is obvious, you’re probably in a cult.

  2. Laugh at Authority
    Power hates humor. So sharpen your wit like a guillotine.

  3. Offend Strategically
    Be rude with purpose, not just volume. Satire isn’t trolling—it’s surgery.

  4. Think in Sentences, Not Slogans
    If it fits on a bumper sticker, it probably belongs in the trash.

  5. Contradict Yourself—Loudly
    Consistency is the hobgoblin of people who don’t read footnotes.

  6. Make Enemies You’d Be Proud to Roast
    If no one’s angry at you, you’re doing it wrong.

  7. Mock the Mob, Even If You Agree With It
    Bandwagons are just parade floats headed off cliffs.

  8. Be Funny First, Correct Second
    Satire without laughter is just a manifesto in clown makeup.

  9. Burn Sacred Cows—Medium Rare
    Every era has its idols. Your job is to cook them.

  10. Never Join a Revolution That Doesn’t Have a Joke Book
    No punchline? No freedom.
