They do kind of have a mob mentality power to swarm people and shout down a lot of people, smaller internet celebs. There's also how a lot of game journalists bend over for any kind of social justice critique of video games. A lot of game journalists have spent their time worshiping Anita Sarkeesian and the way in which they came out of the walls to praise Zoe Quinn and then avoid addressing the drama that surrounded her does make it seem that "SJW" types have a good deal of control in the video game journalism scene.

lol god forbid people reviewing things in an artistic medium get all critical about issues in that medium
There's a debate to be had. My issue is I only see one side of the debate in the gaming journalism scene. There are a lot of youtubers that comment but I've yet to see someone on the Kotakus or Rock Paper Shotguns of the internet to cover Social Justice content in any sort of critical manner.
Sounds like you've found an untapped market, you should get on that.

Sometimes no balance is better than a fake balance. We don't ask flat-earthers for their opinion when discussing geography, after all.
You sound bitter about not everyone being in lockstep with your ideology.
Actually they really doesn't come across as bitter, you seem to be projecting.
He didn't even mention a specific ideology.
He only complained about journalists who are SJW-ish friendly-ish.
Right, so his ideology is "not SJW." Perhaps I'm using a different definition than most people seem to be, but that just means he doesn't like people who want to force others to accept headmates, Sherlock-kin, etc. as "normal," right?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure you're using a different definition than most people. Yours is rather… extreme.
Yeah, so I can separate the crazy people from feminists, who are actually generally rational.
Well that was the topic so it's not surprising he would stay on topic.
The topic was the secret cabal of rabid SJW-Jew-feminists that hold the gaming journalism world in their evil, misandric ~~hands~~ harpy claws. Staying on topic would also include pointing out evidence that this might not actually be the case rather than wailing about the ever so vague "a lot" that aren't anti- SJW.
The topic was about "SJW" journalists, the person made a joke about a conspiracy and the person said that there was strong "SJW" influence within gaming journalism. That's very much on topic.
He said there were "a lot" of journalists who are not anti-SJW with no indication of what "a lot" means in either absolute or relative terms. It strikes me the same way that statements like "I've never seen a cyclist stop at a stop sign" strike me.
He didn't mention that there wasn't enough that are anti-SJW but more that they bend over backwards for the SJW types.
Also yeah the what he is saying is very much anecdotal, I dunno whether he's right or wrong about this.
How does that point to his ideology?
SJW = a few crazy cunts on the internet and at a few universities
not SJW = the other billions of normal people in the world with endlessly varying ideologies
