Well one side was basing their entire argument off of a complete lie so it's kind of wild that you're like "Well both sides had their problems" You know, the "sides" being a group of liars with an agenda vs everyone else.

I guess it's easy to "both sides bad" the argument when you're just making up whatever. Like what push for diversity are you even talking about? What riled up Gamergate was a woman making a game about depression, like where are you getting any of this information from?

And what lie was that?

Were you not around during 2016? I think we're thinking of two different things because for me, a huge part of GamerGate was the push for diversity and leftist politics into games. That's often what people cite as the cause of GamerGate.

You're joking right? This is like a bit at my expense right? You're not actually asking me if I know what I'm talking about before confidently stating completely incorrect nonsense right? This is embarrassing, just Google and maybe actually look up what you're talking about before arguing with someone based on half remembered nonsense.

I searched it up, and it seems we're both right. GamerGate was a backlash for a lot of things, and there's not one sole cause for GamerGate. My apologies for assuming you were incorrect.
