This is absurd: study a movement, but not by interacting with them, because they're bots and you should believe in your ability to speak truth to power... ???
Hi, #comm575! If you'd like to actually learn about gamergate and its impact, I strongly suggest you reach out to the people who were there. Beware of professors who tell you not to talk to other people.
The first lesson you should learn about gamergate is that if your professor thought it was a good idea to discuss on Twitter, then your professor doesn't know gamergate. Winking face#comm575
Hi there! I've co-authored a peer-reviewed quantitative analysis of gamergate (link). Do you not think it odd to educate people about a movement with instructions to not talk to people who were involved in the movement?
