Yeah, it's horrible, though - to be a little bit optimistic - I think it can also be seen as a sign that the capital-G Gamers and misogynerds have noticed that they are outnumbered and have to make a shitshow like this in order to have any relevancy.
TBH I understand you perfectly. There are too many bad news these days, but - for whatever it is worth - I attempt to see the good in the bad, even though I am not all that convinced myself most of the time.
Thank you for the kind words, but I don't think I am particularly brave. The main difference between you and me may be that I was around for GamerGate 1.0 and I recognize some of the differences between then and now. While GamerGate 2.0 is - without doubt - dangerous and terrifying, it is far less chaotic than 1.0 and that makes is somewhat easier for me to deal with it.
