8chan's /gg/ board was really strict on that sort of stuff so I doubt it was just 'sexual violence' that was being censored.

Not only is there no connection between pro-gamergate and threats, it's literally the other way round. And Charlottesville has absolutely nothing to do with this whatsoever

Literally the first item on a DGG search:

"How Charlottesville and Gamergate are Completely Related"

Second item:

"Matthew Robert Warner: From GamerGate to Identity Evropa"

The first item is an opinion piece from the very credible Xennial-in-Chief writing for brokeassstuart.com with no relevant facts.

The second is about one person who is literally the only connection IdentifyEvropa found between the two groups. And what was that connection? He tweeted a few tweets about it.

The lack of substantial links only provides evidence that there is no real connection.

By this logic Zoe Quinn is the reason for the rise of 21st century nazism.
