    she made points I have never heard about that I found interesting, like disappearing of some femininity aspects to awkwardly try to avoid sexism accusations.

    These are very common talking points of gamer gate bigots. It’s a giant red flag, because the people who talk about it are bigots

        She shouts out a racist who was banned from twitch for bigotry, so I’d say it’s pretty spot on as a red flag.

      I think you may have a a specific experience that makes this very common for you. I personally don’t interact with those subjects much, so I didn’t know. Thank you for sharing your view.

        Gamergate is not a very specific circumstance. It was a widespread harassment campaign involving the entire industry. This is a follow on from that movement, and any game that releases a female protagonist that isn’t soft and demure gets active push back from this group.
