horriblePencilist posted:She doesn't really offer a platform for legit discussion, and she's been confirmed to delete supportive comments, most likely to change the narrative in her favor. YouTube comments can get really awful, but this is closer to censorship. Why not post another 4-chan screenshot with arrows on it and names underlined to show how bad it is.

Fatkraken posted:A friend of mine made a short video where she pointed out that in League of Legends, the male character list includes a variety of body types, styles of dress, several non human monsters, and a bunch of weird, ugly and fat dudes, while the female list includes exactly one monster, and every single other character has the same body type or is a disturbingly fetishized toddler, 90% of their outfits are sexualized, and that all but one of the female monster characters start out as a sexy lady in revealing clothing and only transform into dragons/spiders etc part way through the battle. Now let me explain you why those numbers are incorrect and protect a game that I like from... Oh, sorry, I don't care enough.

Cycloneman posted:Lying is trivial when no one fact checks you; extraordinarily difficult when people do. People like Zoe get used to just being able to lie to people's faces without evidence because it works, because most people don't bother to fact check other people (because, you know, ). The problem is that once they become recognized as untrustworthy, all their talent at lying to your face becomes pointless because they never learned to fake a paper trail, or to keep their lies within the realm of the plausible-on-the-evidence. So they say things like, "I tweeted like four times about how I was concerned about their transphobic policies" and then somebody screencaps their big twitter storm where they DDOS the site, and it's like, WHOOPS. Agreed, but tell me about the sister loving

I hadn't seen this before but it makes me happy. Although I don't condone all the misogynistic poo poo and death threats I really dislike Anika Sarkeesian. She deserves nothing but to be ignored and all the publicity she gets is just infuriating to real scientists who have to jump through hoop after hoop to earn their PhDs and make it as an academic. It has already been said that her videos are grade-school quality and not even worth looking at for a 101 introduction. She throws around an occasional five dollar word from an introductory sociology book while committing the biggest absolute cardinal crime in academia - she forms her opinion before doing research and only presents material that supports her theory. Her videos would fail as a honours level presentation. In future anytime she's mentioned I'm just going to link those TFYC videos as their quality is orders of magnitude better and hopefully in time she'll be forgotten.

All the games made for women are casual bullshit like Farmville and Bejeweled. The people fighting against lady gamers are doing it to save humanity from such games. Games made by women are even worse than games made for them. Most of them are not even considered games. They are more like interactive romance novels.

So they say things like, "I tweeted like four times about how I was concerned about their transphobic policies" and then somebody screencaps their big twitter storm where they DDOS the site, and it's like, WHOOPS. Oh and to add on to this, a bunch of people simply don't want to know the truth if they think it will inconvenience them or prove them wrong. And other people will try as hard as possible not to get involved with something. Because look, checking if Zoe is not being entirely truthful now for her loyal followers is pretty drat simple at this point. Then there's also the point that some people will defend their friends to an insane degree. Like hell, I remember years ago I was involved with a convention. One of the guys involved went completely nuts and started sending massive amounts of text messages to girls also involved with the con who apparently rejected him and eventually even myself. You'd think with text messages to check if the guy's lying, it would be pretty easy to remove him. However people kept getting stonewalled with "It's a private matter, not part of the con" and people would flat out refuse to see them. A whole bunch of people involved just said "I don't want to get involved". So the result was nothing was done, rear end in a top hat continued on and people left as a result. Years later whenever the incident would be brought up (cause it was epic) they'd legit say that they knew he wasn't lying because no one showed them any messages, with the response of "hey I still got mine" and then they'd retreat to it was a previous committee dealing with it and it was a long time ago (more or less same people). People that had outright told me to my face that "they didn't want to get involved" then would say "I would have gotten involved if I saw the text messages back then". Sadly cognitive dissonance and never admitting to failure overrides peoples morality and ethics by a lot

Lol, because the main audience of visual novels are fat weaboos. There's a Japanese counterpart to male-oriented games, though, crafted specifically to cater to female demographics. It's called otome and it's not very popular outside of Japan, mostly because it's equally horrible as male-oriented visual novels.

Tim Shafer's twitter feed for the past 24 hours has been loving hysterical. He said nice things about Anita Sarkeesian, and every time someone told him that they were blocking him he responded by giving away Steam codes.
