I’ve read all the comments here and I’ve concluded that we don’t really have an effective way for dealing with this problem, although we all recognise the problem.
I will forever curse Milo Snuffaluffagus or whatever his name was for Gamergate.
Especially since incompetent Games Jouranlism is and has been a problem for a long time, and now nothing will be done about it because any attempt to reform or shake up the industry is poisoned by the spectre of that bigoted sham.
Would you find comfort, or discomfort if i told you I've been a "gamer" since 1984, and I'm still not fully clear in wtf gamergate was?
I'm aware it involved journalists and devs. The adhd kinda prevented anything beyond that.
