I read through one of the tweet threads the other day and had a laugh about how these people invoke "muh gamergate", which not only happened almost a decade ago, but also is almost entirely unknown to most of people who regurgitate the excuse. The lack of journalistic integrity isn't the fault of Gamergate. The disdain for said lack of journalistic integrity is also not the fault of Gamergate. People did, do, and will continue to hate shitty reporting regardless of whether not the Right has decided to form a movement pushing back against it.
And building on that, it only gets people to look into it more, and absolutely builds more support for such a movement.
Kinda like how if you say pedophilia is a problem you might be called antisemitic. Really makes one think.
Very true. You'll see a lot of people who had no idea what GG was, who now opt to look into it after seeing the hysteria. Lunatics are driving interest toward their opposition.
