I wouldn't be surprised if she sent the e-mail her self.

I'd be surprised if she had to resort to that.

Good point.

It's just she seems way more interested in boosting her media profile than actually properly analysing or trying to change anything.

I mean this was on BBC Technology news earlier.

She keeps getting all of this media attention without doing anything constructive.
And no, pointing out incredibly obvious sexist characters, having a massive agenda and misrepresenting some games isn't constructive.

Yes the attention she has bought to the issue has been constructive. But none of her actual work has been.

Perhaps if we were to, I don't know, not threaten to rape and murder her and her audience for hosting a talk, she might have more of a chance to present constructive argument.

That's just how us men act.

We get things done, don't we? She didn't even do her talk! Loser.

Typical meek feminist inactivity, in the light of determined masculine superior. And pipe bombs.

Sarkeesian: "More women should be action game protagonists", then she turns down a golden opportunity to experience the role herself; hypocrite

It's cool how these idiots still don't realise that they're the ones enabling Sarkeesian to have a career talking about this stuff. The abuse and threads validate her claims

What a crazy bitch, with her 'victim mentality', just because she's had a few 'death threats'.

Yeah... um, I'm going to evacuate this thread before I get any more crazy people trying to put words in my mouth.

I meant the fact that all she ever does is point fingers. I've said this 1000 times before, but I agree 100% with her sentiment.
But she is absolutely god awful at her job and seems more interested in furthering her 'career' than actually wanting change.

She doesn't want things to change, because then she'd be out of a job.

That is what I meant. Her self interest. Not your assumption.

Yes I'm sure all those film critiques forced a change in their industry were out of a job once those changes took place. She clearly does want things to change and I'm sure she is event smart enough to know that things are not going to change any time soon, not tomorrow, not next week, that isn't a problem with her that is just how things are.
You make it sound like she is exploiting a problem and dragging it out, like one of those dodgy american doctors who keep giving sick people ineffective treatments instead of actually helping them because they'll get paid more.
The amount of sours grapes you have had over this is getting to parody levels now.

Also how can she play any other role but the victum? Her conference was cancelled because of that e-mail, it put her out of work, how can you say she is anything other than a victum?

You want to talk bad agenda's then lets talk about yours because you clearly feel hard done by all this even though none of this has had a direct effect on your life.

Just read that email and I am now seriously pissed off. Accuses other men of being emasculated 'cowards' because, you know, anonymously threatening to shoot and kill unarmed people at a public talk is the definition of bravery. What a bell end. If he actually had a spine he would have offered to engage her in debate.

#Gamegaters figured out the threat sender was from a Brazillian IP, and quite possibly from a videogame journalist who knows Anita, by the way.

We'll just be over here, being history's greatest monsters.

I'd hold fire on buying into any Reddit witch-hunts until there's a bit more information out there. Remember this is the site who nearly got a guy arrested for a terror attack because of his backpack.

Oh come on. IP addresses are routed all over the world. How the strawberry float do you reliably resolve that to an individual if you aren't an ISP. (answer: you can't)

Feminist speaks out about misogyny in media. Predominantly male demographic of media gets bumpain and slut shames the attention whoring snake with tits. Can noone see the massive amplification of simple social retardation ingrained in a demographic?

If video games were principally popular with women, the reverse would never happen. I have no problem being a sympathiser. What a Judas I am.

Such angry, very bare.

Possibly.

I try to take most internet culled information with a nice heap of salt.

But assuming that it IS from a Brazilian IP - and I don't see any especial reason to doubt that... that's a whole heap load of gooseberry fool someone is going to have to wade through to make good on the threat.

Oh I dunno, I wouldn't go that far. I still remember the women tweeted support for Chris Brown after he hospitalised Rihanna by, basically, saying they wouldn't mind being beaten up by him.

Don't underestimate the fuckmendously stupid things that idiots will do if they think someone is picking on their favourite thing.
