Full confession: I was still lingering on 4ch!n at the time, primarily in the /tg/ board (that got sewage overflow from /pol/ regularly just like everywhere else on that site), and I saw the "we are not your private army" mantra instantly become "we are now your private army" once Eron Gjoni demanded one as a petty manchild revenge against Zoe Quinn. I was even there for when the name swapped from the misogynistic dog whistly "Five Guys" name to the more universally marketable "G!merGate" name, largely because of chud actor Adam Baldwin's suggestion. I was also there when they congratulated each other for coming up with the retcon of "it's actually about ethics in g!mes journalism" bullshit claim that was picked up and ran with for years as a smoke screen that was disgustingly effective at throwing naive liberals off the trail of misogynistic stalking.
