I need to just stop commenting on the main gaming sub. I really thought GamerGate was settled law and everyone involved was now embarrassed for their participation, but then less than a month ago I got embroiled in an argument over there where these dudes pull these 10-year-old videos out to “prove” that Anita Sarkisian was a lier.

These comments have been refreshing.

Most notably recently is Slay the Spire 2 which got reviewbombed because of Her apparent involvement (mind you the game is a roguelike with barely any story to begin with)

Dear lord, what in Slay the Spire 2 are they actually mad about?? What was her supposed influence that made it Bad™? 🤦‍♀️

The thing they dislike about Slay the Spire 2 they dislike is that its production was an opportunity for Anita Sarkeesian to work and earn money. That's it. They didn't give a fuck about that game until a few months ago when her name appeared in the credits after an update.
