Rules:

1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

While some of their language has changed, the sentiment of this latest aggressive movement is just as distressing. It’s time for the games industry to stand up to it

If you do want to learn more, Innuendo Studios did a 6 part series called Why Are You So Angry? that’s pretty short (most episodes are ~10 minutes) but goes into the details

Edit: part 4 (An Autopsy of Gamergate, 18min) is probably the best summary, but the entire series is worth a watch if you have the time
