Not a weird comment and you know why. I pointed to your comments about "GamerGate" because you singled him out with:

> The best "radical" quotes you have from this person are criticisms of video games?

"Video games" being the focus there.

Stop moving the goalposts. The argument isn't "Thomas was totally unaware of the GamerGate debacle". It's "Thomas never accused this HN commenter of being a GamerGater, so a bunch of tweets about GamerGate aren't in any way germane to the thread".

You're the one who brought my Twitter feed into this discussion. That was a weird thing to do, but whatever; the real issue is that your argument doesn't make sense in context, except as a way of trying to generate extra drama. Instead of talking about the three examples of "radical" video game criticism, let's instead litigate all of GamerGate!

It also wasn't helpful to that commenter for you to suggest they'd been "singled out". Replying to the top comment on the thread isn't "singling someone out".

No goalposts are being moved. Your relevant history on the subject is what was being pointed out. I think you know exactly why and it doesn't have anything to do with "generating" drama.
