Legobutts from Sweet Baby Inc., Zoey Quinn's "PR person" and Sarkeesian, worked hard to hide the real reason Gamergate happened.
Wikipedia, a woke hive filled with Cancel Pigs, was complicit. Compare the US version to the Chinese version where they had less influence:

US Game Journalists, who considered themselves "valuable allies" more than truth finders, actively lied and obfuscated and smeared gamers for an entire year.
These false articles, of course, were now referenced by Wikipedia as factual sources. The circle of lies was compete.

Gamergate directly kicked off the era of Internet censorship. Twitter began to police trend lists and shadowbans first started to appear.
Twitter users who noticed these things were quickly condemned as conspiracy theorists, but we now know they were correct (see Twitter Files).

Gamergate was so effective at challenging and exposing the false narrative of journalists, that a mass panic ensued amongst media and tech that still persists today.
The censorship and narrative manipulation tools in widespread use today were forged in the days of GG.
Journalists are still triggered by the mention of the name.

This is why whenever a populist movement happens, or a truth in opposition to the MSM narrative begins to surface, the same anti-GG tactics are deployed by journalists and bots.
The meme was that GG was to blame for everything, and in a sense, it was. It was the first truth awakening of a large sample of the population.
This could not be allowed to happen again, but it did, and rose to the highest levels of politics.

Today, especially thanks to X releasing the Twitter Files, more and more of the population is now aware of the manipulation and gaslighting all around them.
In gaming, Sweet Baby Inc. is opening a new set of eyes in the hobby to what is happening. Witness what @TheActMan_YT is now pondering openly where once such thoughts were forbidden.

@TheActMan_YT Meanwhile, gaming journalists continue to try to suppress the truth, downplay it, and gaslight gamers. Witness Paul Tassi, and expect more of this from media this week:
But those old tactics that worked so well to smear gamers and GamerGate have lost much of their effectiveness after years of the public seeing obvious truths being suppressed.
The truth is starting to seep around the edges of the Managed Narrative. In games, in movies, and everything else.
Let's hope it's a deluge.
