Opinion can't be wrong or right; just legit or not. She's not legit. She misrepresents games to push her message. She didn't use her kickstarter money for research/videos. And above all else; a video revealed she doesn't even care about games to begin with. Her boyfriend is more than likely using her to push his bigotry through a pretty face.
She was awarded an ambassador award at this year's GDC. She was invited to an EA studio to consult on Mirror's Edge 2. She had a recent speech where she actually pushed the message that when it comes to women it is our job to "listen and believe". Her busted research is being used in a few schools.
Her (or Jon, I guess) ideology has been shown to be ultimately anti-artistic freedom, with thinly veiled shaming as icing on the cake for anyone who tries to engage her. It's so formulaic that a documentary is being made to focus on how she and other SJW/Feminists conduct themselves when called on their arguments/actions.
Her having opinions isn't the issue. Those opinions being structurally weak yet above reproach is kind of a problem. This isn't even a GamerGate thing. If she had her way the games you guys enjoy wouldn't exist.
