If rainbow is a bow, rain would be the arrow it shoot, right?

To make me and the forum feel for alive, I’d like to raise a few question.
First, I agree zealots are a huge problem in social movements, gaming related or not.

But did they actually volunteerly ally with zealots? After all, GamersGate is a hashtag, meaning anyone can use it if they want to. And there are zealots that can craft points that makes any rebuttal from GamersGate sounds like contradicting their own purpose. And said zealots will make damn sure this point is heard by everyone.

The anonymous nature of Internet make things worse, you can only know this article is written under such hashtag, but have no idea whether the writer is to help it or harm it.

Is there really any way to stop zealots from sticking to you, and scare the general public off? Zealots in itself is not a bad thing, but they are kind of extreme, which is bad for their message to come through. So if there’s a milder movement, they will consider this a chance to convey the message, and stick to it. This apply to both side to the spectrum, really.

And then there’s headline issue. If they don’t make their title zealous, not much people would notice it. Controversy is the best way to attention, I’m afraid. Is there really a way around this?
