Before the events of [[GamerGate]], Yiannopoulos had previously expressed disinterest and distaste towards video games and gamers.<ref>Yiannopoulos, Milo. "[http://kernelmag.dailydot.com/comment/column/5344/am-i-too-old-for-video-games/ Am I too old for video games?]" The Kernel. September 17, 2013</ref><ref>Yiannopoulos, Milo.

August 14, 2014</ref> Yet upon bearing witness to the unprofessional behavior of gaming journalists in response to the [[Zoe Quinn Scandal]], Yiannopoulos sympathized with gamers and later proposed a truce upon discovering that he and GamerGate supporters had a lot in common, ideologically.<ref>Yiannapoulos, Milo."[http://www.breitbart.com/Breitbart-London/2014/09/01/Lying-Greedy-Promiscuous-Feminist-Bullies-are-Tearing-the-Video-Game-Industry-Apart Feminist bullies tearing the video game industry apart]" Breitbart London.

September 9, 2014</ref>  Likely motivated by his opposition to the extreme-left views that gaming journalists and GamerGate opponents championed, Yiannopoulos became involved with [[GamerGate]] and published several articles in support of them.
