MODERATORS
GamerGate was an alt-right propaganda operation from the very start, and the victims had receipts the entire time. There were approximately two weeks between the initial libelous accusations - about a review that did not even exist - and the targets revealing they were in the channels where this fraud was planned. And it turns out that doesn't matter! The liars can just keep doubling down, and some people will never catch on.
I will reiterate: the unethetical review the whole thing was about DOES NOT EXIST. Kotaku never did the thing these frauds keep screeching about. There was no inciting incident. They made it the fuck up.
