like think about the id Software guys like Carmack and Romero, that was late 80s/early 90s but tell me those guys wouldn't have bought into this "Suck it feminists" stuff? Duke Nukem? Leisure Suit Larry?

I went to quakecon, basically id software central, twice back in my fps-loving nerdo days (1995-2003ish rip). There was def a booth babe style thing going on and not a lot of outright misogyny I encountered because there were just so few women there. There was a prominent clan (that being the beginning days of gaming "clans") that was all-woman and playing on their gaming server was super fun but I think all the original members ditched out eventually.

This is correct. Ultimately it comes down to ideology. Human nature. These guys have pick a "side", in this case "the left", and will back that side no matter what, because they've picked it and identify with it. Gamergate's points don't matter, what matters is that it's (to them) "conservative", and therefore evil.
This is a story that has been repeated all throughout the centuries. The vast majority of humanity is tribal by nature and has no time for critical thought.
This is how extremists succeed, by the way. All extremists are cut from the same cloak of lacking personal talent, authoritarianism, and fear of dissent.The only thing that changes are the colors they wear - extremists attach themselves to the popular politics of the moment.
We live in a time where the right discredited itself after 8 years of the Bush admin, so the current extremists brand themselves as leftist. But I can guarantee you that if this were 1939, with most democracies in shambles, they'd be fascists, and if this were 1955 they'd be communists.

has there ever been a case of someone on the internet accusing someone else of lacking 'critical thought/critical thinking' that wasnt just code for 'this person disagrees with me'?

Hatred grosses me out too, but it's such obvious and banal offensiveness. I feel like an idiot having any reaction to it, like there's no way to win when something's designed to cause offense.

Anyway this insular group of a few dozen or so people quickly attracted a large following on Twitter by making genuinely amusing Tweets (which had mostly nothing to do with SJW shit), and among that following were many indie creators and related SJW types, mostly because those Tweets had SJW-friendly language (the most glaring examples of this language are infantile-sounding insults like "garbagemen" or "piss baby").
