I haven't watched the video yet, but I think it's important to remember that no matter what GamerGate started out as, it's changed. Media (and not just gaming media - media as a whole) has determined what it is about NOW. The discourse now is about misogyny within the gaming community, that has been determined by the larger debate.

GG "followers" might argue that it's about journalistic integrity, but that's not what is being discussed when talking about GG nowadays; it's shifted towards death threats and online harassment.


Perhaps you should watch few videos before stating something like this, cause that is exactly what those journalists want you to believe. By picking few bad apples and then focusing everything on misogyny and harassment, which neither #gamergate nor #notyourshield condone, quite the opposite, game media is deliberetly diverting issue from its own corruption - which is nothing suprising tbh, specially with, shall I say testimonies, like Tachikoma's in recent thread here, about how deep that rabbit hole goes.

If you want to learn a bit more about all this, you can, for instance, google GamerGate and Totalbiscuit, instead of believing whatever major game media outlets that have a stake in all this are telling you.
