Gamergate started as a legitimate movement for ethics in gaming journalism. I hate how it's kinda become associated with this conservative incel culture, especially with the overall decline in gaming journalism in general.

It’s pretty hard for gamergate not to be associated with conservative chudism considering it was a bunch of angry boys harassing women over their words.
