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.
There's nothing here!
