Because they demonstrably aren't allies. "Gamer" is a pejorative term according to them. They don't respect the hobby and advise against it. As they temporarily spotlight the issue, they poorly depict the whole story and potentially muddy the waters to our disadvantage.
It would be one thing to let them cover it once for exposure, but if they involve themselves, they split off support once they find something disagreeable (say, violence or some variety of fanservice).
I dunno man. Seems to me like you're making the perfect be the enemy of the good. Who cares if they don't like you? They're against DEI ESG and woke shit, which are all of the components of the Sweet Baby thing. It's not like you need to become best buds with Matt Walsh and little Benny. Just let them attack your enemy.
Matt Walsh has made his bed, now he has to lie in it. It’s not anyone’s fault but his own that he went out and called gaming a shitty hobby and once you do something like that don’t be shocked when someone else fires back and calls out your hypocrisy. For fuck’s sake, this is exactly the behavior we make fun of the left for doing all the time.
Dude could’ve put out a statement or apologize for being misinformed in the past, but instead he suddenly appears and acts like the savior to the community he just shit on. How can you say gaming is a shitty meaningless hobby and then turn around and bitch when it’s being invaded by shitlibs. It either matters or it doesn’t.
