      Yup. Gamergate was the preshow for the alt-right. Milo, Breitbart, etc., all made the transition seamlessly. Nobody involved in gg ever cared about games. They were experimenting & trying out tactics, before they started focusing on the only real game: politics.https://twitter.com/ErynnBrook/status/1080968316540248064 …

      I can point to several women and trans folks who have completely changed careers because they’ve been harassed out of video games. I can see the direct line from GG to the alt-right. I can’t find a single policy or reform to point to that’s a direct result of GG.

      Yup. I punch nazis, as they say. I have zero sympathy for people who were stupid enough to be taken in by fascists. If you were really into “ethics,” then once the movement started acting violently, you’d’ve distanced yourself. But here you are years later still defending it🤔

      Ah, well, see, “punch[ing] nazis” is a concept we call a “metaphor” - obviously a new one for you. In this case, “punch[ing] Nazis” refers to not the literal act of punching, but to a much broader set of actions that actively puts down & prevents Nazi & fascist activities.pic.twitter.com/gbSWbbJYhk

      A screenshot of the Wikipedia entry for metaphor as a figure of speech - because this asshole seems to have not heard of it. Might as well educate!

      I don't think it's the people calling you out who are struggling with 'metaphor'.https://www.berkeleyside.com/2018/08/08/eric-clanton-takes-3-year-probation-deal-in-berkeley-rally-bike-lock-assault-case …

      You tried to pass off 'punch Nazis' as metaphorical, when people are taking it literally (even if only very rarely hitting an actual 'Nazi'). I've figured it out, you're struggling.
