If you troll all of your customers, don't be surprised if you end up with a few wing nuts going off the deep end.
The "journalism" response to this entire affair has been shameless pandering to some notion of political correctness and shameless exploitation of the situation. That's been true pretty much across the entire media spectrum starting with the very first set of trolling click-bait articles generated by the gaming and tech press.
Anyone that disagrees is branded as some sort of anti-feminist misogynistic scum who's opinions don't matter.
It's a perfect example of the "liberal media" that tea baggers like to whine about. The dogma behind the narrative is more important than anything else.
