Gamergate - Maybe you're the baddies.
Being a #Gamergater is a lot of work.
Writing purple, overcooked prose about how fat women will bring about the end of art takes creativity and paranoia.
It is at least as much work as being a Tea Party activist. To grind away at angry emails to editors and advertisers for months on end takes dedication. To read thousands of Brianna Wu tweets looking for stuff to add to your conspiracy diagram takes effort. To repeatedly send Anita Sarkeesian tweets you know she'll never see takes a double measure of frustration and persistence.
To nourish elaborate conspiracy theories against a random sampling of women in the technology and gaming industries takes time, and a willingness to endure hours of Youtube lectures on the subject. It's probably tiring. At some point, everyone just wants to check out and play some video games, or go to sleep.
But to believers, Gamergate has all the urgency of a war. Simply put, there's no time for Kerbal Space Program while internet feminists dominate the discourse. To boost morale, Gamergaters make a lot of propaganda cartoons. These cartoons are designed to keep people in the movement fired up, and to remind them of who the enemy is. I hope you enjoy them as much as Gamergaters seem to.
