Blaming gamergate for censorship is like blaming a shooting for gun control. It doesn't happen on its own. Actual people with personal political motives are there waiting to take advantage of any opportunity or excuse to express greater control over others, even occassionally participating in (or outright creating their own) such opportunities.
Between her claiming this is the first time she's heard of the Zoepost and her claiming that r/wallstreetbets blew the lid off of "Gamergate", it's pretty clear that she believes the GameStop short squeeze was Gamergate.
So, what, to avoid censorship, gamers should have self censored? This is an old Bolshevik line that still has little pieces of boot stuck on its tongue to this day. I'm not really sure that's what you mean, though, to be fair.
Why should people's feelings matter with yo mama jokes, wilin out, and jonsing?! Laugh, get good, or put it on mute. If you don't like the way a match is having fun, drop it and get a new match.

Those of us that played Ghost Recon, not COD first disagree.

~woman that played when it was fun.
Why the hell do you think people calling out corruption made censorship? Are you blaming those who called it out, or the corrupt individuals?
