No idea what could be the relation with GamerGate
I too see nothing in common, and since at least a handful of people hold this view, could the parallels that they see to be made explicit, please?
pathological people, having been called out on being pathological
I am having trouble finding anything more than hundreds upon hundreds of kilobytes of very civil, if considerably indignant, discussion around the issue, and several people taking principled stances at great risk to their own standing. So I would also like to see an example of someone being called out on being pathological, please.
There is always a danger of the tyranny of a vocal and motivated minority appearing to be the dominant opinion of the community as a whole
Again (after two years and four months) this is why we need regular, periodic, scientific, carefully sampled surveys of the community:

Is there any reason that the Community Engagement team thinks such surveys aren't worth the time and effort?

This seems fair comment and a useful proposal. I would support the concept of such independent surveys, and them being funded by the foundation. I see a need. Cheers, P
