Identity Politics (Ep. 36): It Really Is All Gamergate (w/ William of Incel Riot Studio)

In this episode of Identity Politics, Kevin DeAnna traces the roots of today’s cultural revolution to the gaming world, where Gamergate exposed the myth of meritocracy and showed how diversity became a weapon of control. What began as a fight over video games became the first rebellion against a system that mocks its own creators, and the next generation of dissidents is rising from the consoles, not the think tanks.
Kevin is joined by William of Incel Riot Studio to talk about his upcoming game Civil War 2, a strategy wargame where players battle for the soul of an America gone terribly wrong. They also discuss how the tabletop scene was captured by ideology, which franchises have resisted the takeover, and what hope remains for the future of gaming and the creators fighting to keep it free.
