Context is: a) He is not tweeting at her. He is not even using her last name. He is not harassing her. She went searching for things to make her feel harassed and found them. b) He is making a factual statement. He is purposefully agreeing with her. But she went searching for things to be offended by and chose to interpret the words to be offended.

Making fun of stupid things on the internet is serious business and upsetting to some. My contribution was the "vitriol" of mocking stupidity and bigotry.

Is Anita S also just an unstable nobody or is it ok to make fun of her? A guy made a tweet to make a point and it's just hilarious.

If Hermione Were The Main Character In Harry Potter. (Featuring the voice of the Stanley Parable narrator.) Warning: Bad words.

I just have to wonder if they made a certain compromise. "Yes you can have the stupid looking lightsaber but it's all you get."

I really hope this will be good. J.J. Abrams Star Trek did nothing for me.

Again the irony of you not being able to ignore an entirely separate thread. You berate us for not ignoring the biggest spat in gaming culture but you can't stay away from one forum thread.

There is irony in someone who is pro ignoring what he deems dumb having a problem with people for not ignoring other dumb bs. Follow your own advice.

It's the end of days. Get to your bunker to escape the cosmic horror.

^ Clearly she is just a Twitter nobody and doesn't represent feminism in any way. How dare you.

Unless they are the right people. Then they are the great "problem" of our whole culture and should be rounded up and reported to FBI. But anyone that doesn't fit that category is a harmless unstable snowflake and how dare anyone hurt their feels.

I agree that Jonathan McIntosh, MovieBob., Brianna Wu, and other twitter residents, are clearly mentally unstable. I'm so sorry I ever mocked them.

Yes. Citizen Kane of trolling.

I'm waiting for a reasonably priced (compared to TITAN) 6 gb card to come out. 980Ti maybe. Some games are already sticking some 6 gb requirements out there (even if they've been BS for now). I like the 980 but I want a future proof one.

The harassment is allegedly from that panel where one of them spoke up and you can hear it hear at 18:30. EDIT: Here are statements from both sides. http://honeybadgerbrigade.com/2015/04/18/go-home-gamer-girl-press-release-on-unjust-banishment-from-calgary-expo/

Listen & Believe?

An excuse to what? I don't really understand what rule they supposedly broke. Regardless having researched a little bit. According to HB they were told by security that they are being expelled because of "harassment" with no explanation about what the harassment was.

I would have thought there would be while a statistically insignificant but a sizable group of snowflake gamers that follow her. EDIT: On a sort of relevant note. This is hilarious.

A bunch of nerdy looking dudes. They are different from the old kind of clientele how?

That is actually a surprising point. I didn't expect there to be so little effect from her pimping a "right" kind of game.

They did nail a certain kind of overall preposterousness. Like a punchline to what should be a joke.

So these MRA women got kicked out for for a fairly polite disagreement. Kicked out and banned forever from all conventions organized by the same organization. Because this seems like a reasonable and proportionate response to whatever formal rule (if any) was broken and would happen to anyone else, right? Yeah... no. Anyone else would get a pass and being banned forever from all conventions is not a response of a reasonable human being. This kind of uncompromising fanaticism earns you the name SJW.

"Media affects people. But it doesn't affect people in any way we are willing to meaningfully define. Because then we will have to answer to that". Ok, got it...

Does anyone read all the books you can find?
