    "They never openly called for violence"

    They're the bloody KKK, they do all the time. BTW you know Gamergaters aren't going to apologize to you, right? Oh yeah, Gamergate was a time when the actual KKK called for violence on YOU specifically, now you're all buddy-buddy with them?

      She still sometimes says some things about Gamergate, and all of her newfound followers try to politely defend Gamergate to her when she does.

            freeze-gamergaters have been trying to write a false version of their own history before Adam Baldwin even proposed freeze-gamergate as their movement name. Back when it was "5 Guys" (yes, even more sexual pathology innuendo) they were already instructing each other on the "ethics in games journalism" mantra.

        I'm sure she courts them and boosts their signal and their lies about their own movement partially out of fear and partially out of craving for additional clout. Disgusting.

      But also like, when have Pro-Palestine protest movements in the US called for violence?

        Stone of them have probably made statements in support of liberatory violence against the apartheid regime. That cannot stand as it would disturb the status quo.

        Don’t be silly, we all know that making the rich feel uncomfortable also counts as violence.

        When they insisted on pretending that "From the river to the sea" or any other call for basic human dignity for palestinians was a call for genocide.

      Right? Their mere existence is a call for violence, for the establishment of a white supremacist status quo. Ffs Brianna.
