    I don’t remember what for, possibly they thought she slept with someone for good reviews on a game?

    That was Zoe Quinn, who was the #1 target for G*merGate harassment. Wu also got harassed, which makes it hilarious to me if she’s now trying to garner favor from fascists, to them she’ll always be an SJW who tried to f*ck with g*mers.

      you can avoid your asterisks turning into long stretches of italics by escaping them like this with a backslash: \*example\*

      i remember deep diving into the “Zoe Quinn lore” and coming out thinking they were a bad person back in '16. i’m assuming much was bullshit

        Yeah, it was all bs. Her creepy asshole ex put out an honest to go multi-page manifesto about how she was a (collection of misogynist slurs) mostly centering on how she had sex during a period when they were not together, but really just an absolute tirade of jilted dangerous ex boyfriend shit. That got picked up by the protofash and become “the lore”
