I used to read Ars Tecnica and then saw every article was left wing talking points and nothing about tech
Around 2015, virtually every media outlet, no matter how unrelated, politicized and exposed themselves as left-wing activists.
That would explain gaming magazines as well.
Perhaps the most hilarious has to be Teen Vogue.
Tell me about it. I remember in the 90s and early 2000s I’d read them a lot because they had great articles written by people who seemed to love gaming. Now it’s written by people who hate the hobby
At least gamergate opened some eyes
Just look at Ars Technica's home page from 1999 or even 2008.
Back in 2014 it had already gone downhill considerably but mostly in the sense of trying to appeal to advertisers and the mass market and not political bullshit. By 2015 you had vaccine mandate stuff on the front page, and of course when Trump ran for president TDS kicked in with full force.
Same for me with Slashdot...they've always been tilted to the left but I stopped going there when it got too rabid and people couldn't post anonymously anymore (maybe that was a glitch, but I hold a very high bar for the admins of a tech news site).
