Journalists spent YEARS under targeted harassment for GG. The catchphrase was literally "it's about ethics in gaming journalism."
-
The argument being made here is, "Oh, they didn't get harassed for doing journalism, they got harassed for doing journalism defending women"

So... journalism then. Using that logic you can easily escape any accusations.

"Oh, he didn't get harassed for doing journalism, it was because he did journalism about Trump. Journalism is safe." This is dangerous.

Along various axes, people are willing to believe that Trump invented many of the problems we're facing. He didn't. He's a product of them.
-
We need to not be naive about them because they don't go away when Trump eventually does. Losing Trump doesn't fix them.

The guy is going to get the credit for being the culmination of years of targeted hatred.

Like this whole thing is them realizing the water is boiling, and opressed people telling them, "Did you not know we were being cooked?".
