Its always funny because I was there during the start of GG, and every day was a constant whine fest of "we don't wannaaaaaa do that, it'll make us look like we aren't still Leftists! If we are associated with anyone Right it'll tank us!!!!"
It took years, and Milo's abuse of his labels to make them feel like they were still being Progressive, for the Mostly Left Wing GG to even begin to recognize the Right wasn't the pure evil they had been screaming their whole life. And it still had huge pushback, like KIA1 trying to ban all T_D posters.
New Fags don't realize how libtarded early GG actually was. It funded a radical feminist game jam, respected tranny pronouns and was generally pro-trans, etc.
It was really insufferable having to explain over and over "no this didn't just magically appear from nothing, these groups and types have always been doing this." So many seemed unable to understand that something like feminism could have ever been wrong until it attacked them.
And its not like it ever got better. By the time KIA2 kicked off, they were still promoting every tranny or minority they could find who supported them. Sophia Narwhal was basically a god and took the entire front page for months.

Liana Kerzner got a lot of promotion. Her whole schtick was "everything really is sexist and racist, but I'll tell you why Anita Sarkeesian is a grifter (and also here's my cleavage)."
