Kotaku is a shitty video game publication with journalistic standards in line with things like HuffPost, MSNBC, and WaPo. So, really just subversion propaganda.
The "InAction" part is from the creation of the sub during the whole GamerGate thing. The "2", good luck, that gets asked about once a month. Something about mods being fags.
If you aren't familiar with GamerGate, maybe someone who's been around longer can give a synopsis. You can't really research it, as all the propaganda outlets describe it as you'd expect with all their race baiting and comparison to Nazi stuff.
Gamergate is really simple: Some journalists were caught giving good press to games developed by someone they were close with, and instantly jumped to cover up and blame anyone who caught on to this rather than transparently express the fuckup.
Everything from rapidly plummeting opinions on journalists to requirements to state that promotion is paid for in videos is a result of this fuckup, but it's not done yet.
