Gamergate. Again. Followed by anti-woke gurus, and increasingly inflected by QAnon. Again. As ridiculous as it is, that's a big part of the answer to how we got here, with Gamergate marking the moment dumb internet culture warring invaded real life, with big, real-world impacts.
Paul Pelosi's attacker said in court today he got into politics through Gamergate. He would listen to right-wing podcasts for hours at a time, and developed a hitlist: Gavin Newsom, Tom Hanks, Hunter Biden, and a women's studies professor he learned about from Conceptual James.

I just got blocked by pointing out what prominent role certain very influential atheists played in gamergate.

I know I've been banging this drum, but this all started with 4chan. Hell, look at "Vivian James" the mascot that was created supposedly to counter GG. Her outfit is green and purple, done on purpose to reference a rape joke.
