Well sure. But if the broken clock happened to be right about the time in this case, my question was why anyone would be ashamed of believing it.
Pointing out an obvious problem and assigning blame incorrectly does not make them right. That's the problem being highlighted here. I don't think it's weird for someone to feel ashamed about getting caught up in Gamergate discourse because none of it was legitimate aside from what was being presented at the surface (the ethics of gaming journalism).
its a pretty common fascist tactic, idk why we're supposed to give points to idiots who acknowledge basic reality and then blame it on like random minorities
