SJWs are slowly but surely infecting all gaming sites. I used to really like Eurogamer and Rock Paper Shotgun, but they're both corrupted by SJWs now and have tons of stupid WAHH MISOGYNY posts on a daily basis.

Posts like that have a slim possibility to be picked up by core media outlets. And if they do, site traffic explodes as a side effect.
Core media won't report on what game is going to come out next, or do an interview with a game dev... but talk about how gamers are targeting women or rape culture, or whatever is the hot topic of the day...
And yeah. That shit generates two things...
Hits and outrage. Both are good for business for places like Kotaku.
And if that's what you're peddling, traffic and outrage... what good are you doing society? You aren't informing. You aren't encouraging unity. You're sowing pettiness, hostility, and rage... because you NEED for those to exist for you to peddle your drug of choice.
Outrage.
Fuck you Kotaku.

Kotaku and Polygon for me. Now I just don't bother.

It's not just SJW but relationships to SJWs. Giant Bomb is one of my favourite sites but I'm sick and tired of Patrick. He is a SJW through and through and good friends with Zoe Quinn. Yet he isn't the only problem as much as I hate to say it. The whole crew is friends with people from throughout the scene and there are never any disclaimers or conflict of interests raised.
