I bought it and was pleased to see so many color photos, especially of the old stuff I had never heard of. It's a remarkable history of human ingenuity. Can't wait to finish it.

The short version is that for years some anti-women types have tried to get video gamers to anonymously attack women online. They attacked this book as part of their political agenda. It's very weird, but that's the internet for you. Mods on most websites are getting good at policing them when the community points them out.
I wrote that even though I hated media with a social justice warrior slant, I hardly thought that having sections on women in video games counted as a social justice warrior slant.
Both of our comments were purged.
So it was hardly the troll uprising that you are being led to believe. It's just that leftists cannot stand anybody having different opinions from them on the internet and must try to smear them and silence them.
