Weird thing is, the original content they used to do seems totally forgotten (FDA!, Pico, etc.) now that Fulp is making video games

I don't think they believe white male SJWs are behind it all though -- I mean there's no way that they don't think women are the ultimate villains here

they don't think that it's all white knighting dudes but definitely doesn't go deeper than "white knighting dudes and shrieking white feminists putting words in the mouths of everyone else" which is easy to think if you never actually listen to anyone else
the reason all-encompassing pejoratives like "SJW" are so effective is that they allow the people who use them to decide exactly who falls within that range. it's harder for them to argue against an actually-diverse group of people than a bunch of self-righteous liars just using that diversity to prop themselves up on their high (white) horses.
so call them SJWs and pretend that SJWs are just a few white women and a bunch of white dudes trying to get laid

There is definitely a vein that only blames Anita Sarkeesian as the mouthpiece for her co-writer Jonathan McIntosh.
And yeah, I did see someone defend calling them all LWs on the basis that really, can you tell me a single thing that Zoe Quinn, Anita Sarkeesian, Brianna Wu and Leigh Alexander don't agree on? The idea that there is some central command that they sit in and plan the Feminist Invasion, rather four women who have in common that they got on the wrong side of GamerGate. But then, there is a large hinterland of "things not to think about too hard because if we got them wrong then we're terrible people".

Like you're almost buying that their convoluted nonsensical explanations have anything to do with their motivations.

xp i'm not saying that what i said was a conscious decision on anyone's part, it's just a motivating factor behind those kinds of pejoratives. they become popular weapons because they naturally work that way

in real debates you have to be willing to concede points and allow the possibility the other person will win, though
