Basically pic related. GG was a significant event. It is when /pol/ stopped being libertarians and stormfront and started really hitting the mainstream. The exodus from /v/ along with /pol/ harbor changed 4chan forever and this place has always had a disproportionate impact on internet discourse and been upstream of culture. Luggage lad trying to suppress it also basically also caused both a streisand effect as well as just generally broadening reach pecuase people spread out to other sites like infinity, youtube, and twitter even while it never really stopped here. The media collusion was mind blowing for how blatant it was and was babbys first redpill for many, the paper trails that emerged were indisputable, and covering that that corruption and discussion of motives was the launchpad for several significant right wing, alt right, and alt light media figures that went on to play a noticeable role in the 2016 election into even the present day. That it's still characterized as a "harassment campaign" is a goddamn travesty and reflects incredibly poorly on the capacity for accuracy and truth of presently recorded history as whole as well as academics ability to actually know shit about fuck. The gate suffix is actually accurate here. Despite how small a matter it directly related to it was still a monumental scandal with deep and far reaching implications for how it escalated and what it revealed of how media functioned and the corruption that existed there and changed the entire media landscape, peoples relations to it, and sewed the seeds of distrust which everyone has been harvesting for years now not the lest trump with his claims of "fakenews". Anyone who calls GG a nothingburger is a fool or a liar.
