Gamergate was an accident, and decades of slow infiltration was rapidly and abruptly exposed as a result. To this day people have tried to break the concept of gamers because one idiot journalist and a few hack friends accidentally exposed the plan of gradually working down resistance. It was becoming inappropriate to say anything negative and everyone agreed, until a few tranny identifiers came out swinging too fast and too soon. Five, ten years more without a Gamergate type experience where the plan was exposed and we would be living in a world far worse. All thanks to one dick hungry coder and a shitty program that was considered a game.

They tried to shove gamers out of the car prematurely.

SJWs desperately needed someone to tell them "no, not yet".

Who could tell them that and have them actually listen?

That's the problem with SocJus - because they've decided they're on a moral crusade, even slowing down is by definition evil for them. It's why they're hegemonic - they cannot abide the existence of "evil" anywhere.

They were basically the elite's Italy. Convenient tool when it works well, but then "oopsies they got sucked into a needless war in the middle easy and can't defend Egypt, daddy Germany we fucked up badly, bail us out"
