Gamergate was the warning alarm that they were taking over. Which they would have done without gamergate happening. GG really started after the games journo pros mailing list leaked and they started the gamers are dead articles. Those people were in power before GG. GG was the light being turned on in the room revealing what was going on. Not the cause.
