I never followed Gamergate so I don't know the full backstory, but I'm mind blown that this is the incident that transactivists and libfems are choosing to double down on. What 'violence' is Anita referring to? These people must realize that incidents like this cost them public support, and are desperate to re-frame the narrative.

I'll be curious for Graham Linehan's take on this. He was deeply involved in the whole Gamergate saga for a time, and has spoke of regretting it.

Not quite "deeply involved". I think he just misread the situation and accepted the media's position on it until he realized what was happening.
