>Parkin feels that the idea of the “gaming community,” and its endemic misogyny, transphobia and rape culture, all need to die, and by extension, anyone who has adopted an identity as a “gamer” needs to give it up.
Everyone I know who plays games isn't a misogynist, transphobic or makes jokes about rape.

No we call them "Movie buffs" or "Book worms". Besides, this point really highlights an issue; shaking the word "gamer" won't change the behavior of some people in the community.
