> GamerGate has nothing to do with misogyny, it's about ethics in game journalism

Which is why the targets are overwhelmingly women, I'm sure.

> There has been almost NO coverage of the other side by the mainstream media

People tend not to be interested overmuch in hearing what the side brandishing the rape and death threats thinks.

> GamerGate stands for dialogue, inclusivity, ethics and transparency

I have never seen the causes of "inclusivity" or "dialogue" furthered by threats of physical violence.

> There is absolutely no evidence connecting the movement with death threats made

Well, except for how the death threats keep landing on people who are at the top of GG's list of targets. What an incredible coincidence.

> Zoe Quinn who is a manipulative, hypocritical sociopath

Gosh, I cannot possibly understand how anyone could think GG is misogynistic or disrespectful, when you are always so careful to use measured, even-handed language.
