1: Zoe Quinn is an unknown. Before the whole controversy over her ex and everything nobody knew or cared who she was.
2: "Connections" Is a pretty vague term. But if you are going to get into a field, you do a little thing called "networking". It's where you make friends with other people in the industry so you can stay in the loop on news and job opportunities. Literally every major industry does this. It's not suspicious.
3: That those sites do not want to get involved in yet another massive controversy is not proof that they are being hijacked.
4: Moderators who will not enforce the rules are not good moderators. If the Admin decided on new rules and the Mods decided to refuse to enforce them, it is completely acceptable to replace the Mods with people who will enforce the rules.
5: I do not like Anita, because she does not contribute to gaming at all. She is not afraid to lie in her videos about some of the games she includes, and she offers no solutions in her videos aside from "Stop using these trops". However, she HAS received death threats and a lot of nasty attacks from 4chan. It is not unreasonable that Moot saw the viciousness and illegality of the community's behavior and decided to put a stop to it. (and what does him meeting with Anita have to do with that anyway? Are you saying Anita managed to invent a mind control device and used it on Moot while they were meeting?)
6: See networking from number 2. They probably all just disagreed with the rage being tossed around lately and collaborated to post their articles together. It doesn't mean they are being puppet mastered.
So, when you get to the theories part of this, it's taking several easily explained things and building a far more convoluted narrative out of them.
Honestly though, the loss of 4Chan as an anti-SJW "force" isn't really much a loss. It is amazingly difficult to get people to take intelligent criticism of someone like Anita seriously when she can point to the word vomit coming out of 4Chan and convince everyone to treat you as the same as them.
