Erin's boss has it wrong. Erin doesn't need to say anything inflammatory.
She nearly needs to continue that sentence about diversity and by the time it hits the web, it'll BE "all white men are rapists."
As someone who evidently is "infamous,"I should know!

I don't know how neither Cory or Grey ended up on that list, after WGDF.
Quick, guys! Free publicity, just release a new WGDF!
Baffling, innit? I would think they'd be public enemies #1 and 2 with the response that got.
No, a sentence about equality would be pretty much ignored on either side. If a SJW says it, #gamergate will just pass over it in favor of cherry picking the hatespeech. If someone on the #gamergate side of things says something about equality the sjws will pass right over it and slander them with muh-soggy-knee anyway.
It is being ignored because diversity is not what gamergate is trying to oppose. There has never been a pushback against more diversety for crying out loud.
They push back against shitflingers who call us all (you included btw if you play games) mysoginerds and other nice things just because we do not agree with the practices and arguments of professional victims and the conflicts of internet in games journalism where everyone is buddy buddy and interconnected to each other to such a degree that it makes your head spin, and the people that support them blindly.
Gamergate isnt ignoring the moderate people, they are simply not attacking them because they are not what gamergate stands against. And btw, gamers do call out the shitflingers on their own side quite often and rather strongly, but the nature of the internet makes it so that assholes can be assholes and no one can really do something against it kept for pointing those people out.
The reason these moderate people are mainly ignored is because they are not the enemy. Why should they be focused on when they arent the ones pointing fingers at gamers everywhere and calling them "mysogynerds" and worse? They have done nothing wrong.. they havent attacked gamers... and their arguments are also not wrong.
Gamergate is not against diversity and a better portrayal of EVERYONE in gaming, they are against being told that they are women hating fat bastards with neckbeards and yellowing underpants who are afraid the boys club is being invaded by the cooties, when over 45 % of gamers nowadays are allready female and the medium is more welcoming to any gender and sexual orientation THEN ANY OTHER HOBBY IN THE WORLD.
Dont believe me? Try to come out as a star basketball or football or soccer player. Try to get into the scouts as a kid if you are gay. Try to play with the guys in sports if youre a women. Or try to play with the girls if you are a male but identify as a woman.
You know where this stuff doesnt matter to anyone? In gaming.
And yet... we all hate women, people of different color and sexual orientation.
Screw the rules! I have green hair!
