If you are fine with the guy if he is not a GG supporter I would argue that is already fulfilled. But I guess you want him to take an active stance?

He's no longer a GamerGate supporter? It seemed like he was still defending it in that GOG thread from a few days ago. That said, I haven't heard everything TB might have said on the subject, so if he has indeed said somewhere else that he no longer supports it, then no, I don't really have much of a problem with him anymore.

In my case I suppose I'd say [citation needed]. As Kane mentioned it does look like TB still believed GG was a Good Thing. If he's no longer calling himself a supporter of GG simply to silence the people that keep harping on him about it, then that doesn't mean a thing to me.

Yeah, unless TotalBiscuit has somehow changed his mind entirely between 2-3 days ago and today, and has posted an actual condemnation of GamerGate somewhere else that I just somehow completely missed, then his current stance on GamerGate is that he does indeed still defend it, as shown directly in that GOG thread I linked above.

The guy he was replying to said (among other things): "How about your open support of GamerGate, a hate movement that has viciously targeted my friends and myself time and time again?"

To which TotalBiscuit himself replied with: "Oh, you think Gamergate is a hate movement. Well there's no helping you then if you're that misinformed..."
