Gamergate was something Steve Bannon had his gross fingers all over. He’s one of the most disgusting, infuriating propagandists out there… If I remember correctly he got his “start” with political manipulation in the gaming world. He recognized that you can radicalize “rootless” men who were lost in life and just playing video games to escape so he chose that vector to propagndize and create an army of gravy seals.

He literally did a fascist tour of Europe during the Trump years to push countries already flirting with far right policies to go further.

He’s one of a few people that really deserve a one way trip to the sun.

It was Steve Bannon himself engaged in a proof of concept that gamers were a ripe plumb of dissatisfied idle white men just ready to be radicalized by the right wing.

He learned this from his background and how he got rich in the first place: building World of Warcraft gold farms (seriously).

“It’s not my fault. Please don’t send me to jail for as long as I deserve for beating a sleeping old man with a hammer.”
