LOL @ Vox: Still Flogging Gamergate

link
Gamergate isn't the point of all this, but the left refers to it as a premise--as if it had been established beyond all doubt that it was "a campaign of harassment" "against women"...and Brianna Wu. (Or "Brianna Wu"). 
   In fact, Gamergate was an early skirmish in the culture war. In fact, Gamergate was what happened when gamers began to push back against the lunatic SJWs taking over videogame journalism. In fact, in Gamergate, the progressive-left's new tactics were revealed: when the proles push back against your cultish madness, accuse them of prejudice and violence. In Gamergate, perfectly legitimate complaints about far-left lunacy were mischaracterized as "harassment" of women (and "women). 
   I actually dove into the thing at the time, and there's no doubt about it: the same lies and insanity we see everywhere now first showed up there. Or: it's the first case I know of. It was like the Nazis unveiling the Blitzkrieg in the invasion of Poland. Or something.
   Anyway. Since the crazies now control Wikipedia, and this seems to be the kind of issue on which Wikipedia is taken to be authoritative, their "narrative" (idiotic term) has been established as "fact." 
Though, who knows? Maybe someday the truth will out.
