Yep, and it couldn't have been made more obvious than when Gamergate happened. Before that point I was already feeling like game journalists didn't represent the views of the vast majority of gamers, and then when GG happened they dropped all pretense and started directly hating on us.
They see video games as a tool to influence people. They hate us and the fact that we enjoy them. They said and continue to say it out loud that they want to change video games (to make them "better"), and publishers are helping them do it by paying developers based on review scores from gamer-hating journalists.
If you want to know why AAA games suck nowadays, now you know. Activist journalists (and now activist devs) hate gamers, and they have all the power because the majority of consumers are uninitiated retards who STILL pre-order based off of name recognition and member berries. This is also the reason so many remakes and sequels are being made instead of new and original IPs.
