If you haven't heard it enough yet, you and your fellow devs'/critics'/gamers' example of not letting these regrettably small-minded folk drive you away from your passions is truly inspiring. Now the question:
How has what you experienced / currently experience affected your dev and planning processes? Does it enter into your spitballing/design sketch/engineering phases at all? Are you making certain decisions to emphasize your position(s) or expose theirs?
Let me see if I have this right: You're positing she has a volunteer (or perhaps compensated) army of Twitter users with orders to publicly harass her online. And she wants Patreon money to hire a person or people to combat this army? Seems a hghly-inefficient way to make money...
Yea, they're called Goons. They really want you to think that certain people are a hate movement.
She's been caught several times posting harassment to herself. For example, on her steam greenlight page she forgot to log out of her developer account and posted a message attacking herself.
Amusing how it's "several times" but that one incident is the only one quoted. Not exactly the best way to convince otherwise disinterested parties of her dishonestly.

You'd think once would be enough, but anyways...
Brianna "Stayed Home" Wu got national media attention after being "forced" to "flee home" by GamerGate threats. Yet it turns out that was complete bullshit, because:
1) They were already scheduled to be at a con for the weekend they were forced to flee and go into hiding.
2) They tweeted they would be at the con and at what booth after the "threat". Really afraid for their life there, aren't they?
3) Subsequent interviews after they had supposedly gone into hiding were found out to be done from their home.
Brianna "Stayed Home" Wu injected themselves into GamerGate by poking the hornets nest and used the subsequent "threat" to promote themselves ever since. Brianna "Stayed Home" Wu, when responding to a fellow trans asking for help, admitted in private chat (but leaked by the other party): "Listen, I am good at political stuff. This is what I do. I'm telling you, taking on Paypal publicly is a suicide mission."
So trolling gamers over feminist bullshit is ok while pretending to be afraid for your life, but standing up to PayPal is suicide. Brianna "Stayed Home" Wu is a political operator and a professional victim.

She's probably here, seeding this right now.
