    It’s like the fact that some prominent atheists were involved at the beginning of gamergate kind of got memory-holed in the upswing of right-wing Christian theocracy.

    Personally it’s been wild to witness the atheist-to-Christian pipeline through gamergate and the “facts don’t care about your feelings” crowd.

    What’s even wilder is that Sam Harris somehow ended up somewhat less shitty than he initially appeared, because I fully expected a hard-right turn from him at some point.

      I listen to his podcast (free version that gets cut off at some point midway through discussion), and I’m way behind on episodes, but what role did he have in gamergate?
