What are the organizing points for GG that are level headed and respectful? I must admit that I doubt that this exists.

Wow, it's like McCarthy commission over again. Game companies and publications are labelled "anti-GameGate" or pro-GameGate. Boycotts are organized. You can get a Chrome Extension that will block anti-GameGate sites (who maintains the block list? apparently nobody knows; a user asks why some web comic is block and what anti-gamergate acts the user has done).

Bizarrely this means all links to anti-GameGate sites (like Kotaku) have to be posted via an archiving proxy, archive.me, as everyone on the subreddit apparently has the blocking chrome extension installed.

You're joking, right? KiA is an echo chamber repeating things that have already been debunked by the time they post them. Like the supposed ISIS bot thing that's currently trending there.
