With a view 9 years on, I have decided to banish this piece into the dustbin of history.
I still have my doubts about the whole purpose of "video game journalism" (especially as it relates to YouTube), but I feel like this is one of those times where the _bullshit_ around the topic (mostly by the hateful MRAs and their disgusting apologists) has made even the `#GamerGate` _tag itself_ toxic, and I don't want it anywhere on my site.
