"In the wake of the storming of the US Capitol on January 6 by Trump
supporters, bystanders on social media had plenty to say about the root causes
and contributing factors that may have led to this flash point. Among these was
Gamergate, the year-long harassment campaign from 2014 to 2015 that eventually
became subsumed into the greater rise of the alt-right movement online.
Several viral threads posited that the far-reaching watershed movement was a
crucial precursor to everything that took place in Washington, DC, this week."
Via Muse, who wrote "Excellent article about the continuing reverberations of
gamergate."
