Here's a rundown of the key events, as best I can deduce them.
>2012: Andrew Breitbart dies suddenly (officially a heart attack, age 43)
>Steve Bannon takes control of his blog and reorganizes it.
>Bannon brings in an aspiring comedy actor by the name of Milo Wagner to write for him under the byline "Milo Yiannopoulos". Yiannopoulos's character is a catty, sadistic homosexual from a wealthy family with a fondness for big black cocks and a passing interest in zoosadism. Basically his job is to write degenerate shit so Breitbart can get DEI points for having a gay writer, while still making gays look bad.
>2014: Albanian drug dealer breaks up with his girlfriend three times in seven months
>GF dumps him, making it the fourth breakup
>He posts a wall of whine about her being a big fat slut
>he claims that she tried to kill herself due to stalkers
>when nobody really gives a shit that some cluster b egirl probably cheated on her cluster b drug dealer, he starts sending up-to-date personal info to the aforementioned stalkers
>a group of Breitbart News employees or interns brainstorm an attempt to turn this into a culture war issue
>the long-term goal is to trigger anti-gamer backlash from feminists, increasing the number of male incels available for grooming
>Breitbart News contractor Adam Baldwin posts the first video using the #Gamergate brand
>A week later, Breitbart posts their first official article under the gamergate brand, written primarily by Lane Davis. It's posted under the "Milo Yiannopoulos" byline.
>Breitbart readers (or possibly interns) flood the egirl and other perceived "anti-gamergate" developers with death threats and the occasional swatting.
>devs whine
>Wagner orders a package of syringes online, claims an anti-gamergate activist sent one to him as an assassination attempt. He claims that anyone who was REALLY afraid for their life wouldn't mention it in public. He also refuses to give the syringe to law enforcement, because he knows tracing the order will lead straight back to him.
>FBI traces three of the alleged death threats from Gamergate. One is an antifeminist college student with a grudge against Thunderfoot, who the FBI didn't bother to interview, one admits he threatened Wu but claims it was a joke, and the third is a kid who says he's part of a group that threatens that particular dev for the lulz.
>Someone, probably Slade Villena, hacks the Fez dev's website
>halfchan bans gamergate threads because people keep posting threats and dox in them
>8chan becomes a refuge for gamergate posters, vastly increasing viewership and bringing it to the attention of a senile pig farmer who moved to the Philippines
>gamergate seethes
>halfchan reverses position
>a gamergate irc channel (like a discord but older) starts demanding half/pol/ mods ban criticism of gamergate
>mods don't ban criticism
>the irc channel starts a campaign to spam the mod team with bogus reports until they agree to ban dissent
>mods just ban gamergate as a whole instead of enforcing the irc channel's narrative
>gamergate shills spam half/pol/ into unusability for a couple days in protest
>Someone, probably the pig farmer, DDoSes 8chan
>The pig farmer offers 8chan a DDoS protection service. Hotwheels falls for it and transfers the domain to him
>Gamergate coverage attracts da Pepe, a San Francisco nudist drug dealer, to 8chan
>Wagner leans into the "Milo Yiannopoulos" role too hard and starts advocating man-boy sex, gets cancelled by normie conservatives
>Pizzagate op launched.
>Breitbart News does not participate because Bannon knows it's dumb enough that a lot of his readers would lose faith in Breitbart.
>Davis and da Pepe both actually fall for the Pizzagate op and start shilling it.
>Davis leaves Breitbart for the Ralph Retort, because the gunt will let him write about pizzagate
>Trump is declared winner of the 2016 election. Bannon claims credit, attributing it to Gamergate. (This is yet another attempt to make women dislike gamers)
>Lane Davis's father tells him to stop posting retarded nazi shit, get a real job, and move out of his basement
>Lane says kicking him out of the basement for posting retarded nazi shit is pedophilia. When his dad doesn't change his mind, Lane kills him.
>da Pepe and his GF break up, each accusing the other of molesting their kids.
>da pepe attempts to kidnap Nancy Pelosi and force her to shill pizzagate memes, winds up just severely injuring her husband.
