I also take issue with the petition that he allegedly set up, which claims that "gaming media didn't start this". Now, granted, the fuel for #GamerGate's fire was already in place, and some may even go so far as to say it was already smoldering... but Kotaku et al. went and lobbed a fucking Molotov cocktail at it, then acted surprised by the resulting inferno. So to say "they didn't start this" is bullshit.
