Kotaku was a gaming blog that posted stuff like news about games, anime, cosplays, etc. It started out as a generally decent site, but over time it started to hate gamers and people who like games.
KotakuInAction was made on reddit to document how awful Kotaku has been. GamerGate happened which was focused on the ethical violations they and other gaming outlets made.
Over time we realized that what caused Kotaku and games journalism to become awful extended far beyond gaming news, it was in universities, mainstream press, and everywhere else. The split between the original KotakuInAction and KIA2 was because the mods wanted to limit what people could post about, and overturned a vote on it.
Due to reddit censorship most of the people from there now post on here, on a variety of political topics but still with a focus on games, entertainment, and journalism.
