Like they've managed to do with exactly zero other forms of media? This is delusional paranoia with absolutely no justification or logic behind it. Jack Thompson tried getting games banned back when half the country thought kids playing Doom led to Columbine and he failed; if actual school shootings aren't a powerful enough argument, how on Earth is Anita Sarkeesian going to get games banned for using the same tropes that exist in every other form of storytelling ever? It will never happen.
While they have the same methods and goals, there is an important key distinction between Thompson and Sarkeesian that you are missing. Thompson was a religious republican and thus garnered no sympathy or support from the liberal mainstream media. Sarkeesian is a leftist feminist making full use of Saul Alinsky tactics and has the media on her side.
