While I don't agree with it being flagged and locked, this is a repost of an article that was flagged and locked. Just a heads up.

Reading the first section, I see no reason for it to be flagged or locked. That is, unless the thread attracts 4chan-like discussion.

IIRC Someone objected to the characterization of gamergate, and I would have to suspect that mods decided that flagging was a lot easier than wading through that endless tire fire. I agree with you though, I thought it was an interesting, if not entirely comfortable article.

It's probably more political than HN is currently in the mood for, but I found it fascinating and thought-provoking.
