This dude sounds truly odious. Hopefully this will make other people think twice before harassing folks like this.
It’s all the anti-woke rhetoric the right wing places have been spouting lately. He is just a symptom of a larger national problem. More people like him will be cropping up that take those words to heart. We need an end to the culture war nonsense.
Gaming has had a problem long before the current anti-woke culture war. This started way back with GamerGate.
You can trace a direct line from GamerGate through to Brexit, Trump becoming US president, and the formation of the "alt-right", "incel" and "anti-woke" movements. GamerGate was essentially the testing grounds.
