You just said that the girl was getting too much flak yet the reviewers who are equally responsible are not, so how does the "reviewer" lose all common decencies? DO you mean credibility? You haven't had sex before so you really can't even understand what it means to write someone for a friend, and write for someone in an intimate relationship with. So that's not something you can really discuss to be honest.

I'm not saying things like this should be completely swept under the rug. I'm saying none of this is necessary. What is the point of an internet-wide witch hunt to say that a few people's credibility might be a bit disagreeable.
Social justicers on tumblr going on a witch hunt like this would be mocked for their immaturity/irrationality.
If Zoe Quinn is shedding a negative light on games journalism, what do you think crap like this does to gamers or the internet as a whole? It must take a very large number of very respectable people to try and systematically destroy peoples' entire beings.
If it was discussed by the very gaming journalism, if there was some kind of "PR" announcement regarding it, rather than them trying to use their power to sweep it under the rug, censor those who bring it up, and even up front lie about (to the point where an attorney is harassing the ex saying he's slandering based on lies), then it becomes an issue. You don't even know what you're trying to argue anymore.
