I mean nerds are mad because they're projecting their failed relationships on her basically. Their ex or w/e left them for some other guy because they're autistic neckbeards who ignore them for video games so they're venting their anger on her. IMO

No, this was a new thing. Someone wanted to make a game jam for women to get involved in and have all the proceeds go to charity, and Zoe got offended at the idea of making women work on games for free and doxxed her apparently.

It's a neat idea imo, I mean it's a good way to use an interactive media to try and illustrate what that could be like though apparently her approach is pretty gimmicky and flawed.

I think it was for charity, women would send their ideas into a competition and the best idea would be made by a dev team.

This was another thing that also involved her but she seemed to have been reasonable in this case.

I'd say a fair few people are not to thrilled at the possibility of her faking death threats and being abusive to people tbh.

I've heard Fish tends to be abusive in relationships too so the guy is a real piece of living garbage. I mean honestly I can't fault someone for banging people to advance poo poo. Go for it. But that charity thing is class A rear end in a top hat.

She supposedly made that up. The story goes she lied about her harassment to gain attention for her game and help promote it on Steam Greenlight.

I think it's great that when formerly lifeless, asexual, nerdy quasi-virgins become mildly successful at something and are able to attempt real human relationships of some sort their complete lack of experience and social ability leads to such trashy Maury Povich levels of drama

Especially that a whole new social class of predatory women has evolved to take advantage of said nerds for mild personal gain
