But it's this affect, it's this feeling they have of them being the ones who are oppressed that made them into the shock troopers that we saw with Gamergate. If you're going to read one Vicky Oswald thing, and I'm citing her a lot because I think she's done a lot of the best critical reporting on video games, which is a field that I feel like we just haven't done much critical shit with.
