Problem is these journos never led anything an army of outrage lunatics by telling them what they wanted to hear about games and gamers, as soon as they stray from the fairy tale of identity politics they will have lost that audience too.  They thought they were leading gaming into a new social justice era but all they really did was march their merry band of extremists off a cliff. AAA developers know this, a pretty significant number of indie developers know this, publishers know it but the problem is this "indie" press doesn't know it yet.
