Does anyone know of any specific examples of people who got fired from their jobs (especially in the gaming industry) because some nutjob Twitter user went through their internet history and found that they posted something that goes against the liberal cult, possibly years prior? Things like if they said they voted Trump, didn't support trans people, etc. Bonus points if their employer made a public apology for hiring that person.

Sam Hyde - had a show on Adult Swim that was cancelled before its first season ended due to him being on the right.
JonTron - had his cameo appearance in the game Yooka Laylee removed as well as losing some sponsors after he came out as a pro GamerGate right winger while debating destiny over race realism.
Tim Soret - developer of the game Last Night was cancelled by Zoe Quinn after his pro GamerGate tweets from 2014 were dug up. His game has been in development hell since then.
Diversity And Comics/YaBoiZack - is a comic book youtuber who had a campaign for his comic sabotaged by industry veteran and rabid SJW Mark Waid who petitioned to get his publisher to drop him.
Wasen't there a lawsuit by YaBoiZack for tortious interference? What happened?
IIRC it was dropped because ironically YaBoiZack ended up being very successful despite Mark Waid's interference.
With something like tortious interference you have to prove major damages.
