I hope they both keep plugging fake death threats so that it escalates into a slapfight about who deserves more attention

Pretty sure anyone that actually legitimately thinks Anita would need to fake screencap harassment has some sort of brain problem as she gets plenty of real stuff she could just screencap. Also if I knew these collage making nutcases had my address and were taunting me with it i'd probably lay low for a bit too.

Spanish Manlove posted:man this style of post is right out of DnD I know. I just like JonTron, and he seems like a nice guy whose biggest offense is being opposed to any kind of censorship, and thinking it's stupid for people to get upset at meaningless bullshit. A post calling him a "total retard" over a controversy about him calling a gaming service "retarded", combined with made up claims about what he did, was just too retarded to ignore. I totally believed some random shithead sent that abuse to her. There's no way there isn't someone out there somewhere who would, because they'd find it funny as poo poo, just like loving swatters. But that 12 seconds part is suspicious as gently caress. XK fucked around with this message at 16:13 on Aug 28, 2014 |

Twitter idiots managed to ground a plane by sending bomb threats but I can't even believe people would send detailed death threats to famous youtube person, even though they obsess over said person so much that they make borderline schizophrenic ms-paint pictures with only thermite can melt steel there was no moon landing Paul is dead style rants.

If it's any consolation, he really doesn't deserve all that negative attention for one marginally dumb comment.

Look, there are basically two possibilities: One: Anita Sarkeesian got pinged by a mention, went to Kevin Dobson's page, got so freaked out by his tweets that she immediately logged out, then regained some courage and realized that she should actually screenshot this page, all within 3-4 minutes total. Two: Anita Sarkeesian is a liar.

Did she at least remember to disable geo-tagging when tweeting about hiding in fear of a guy on twitter?

Good thing that this guy would threaten her with personal information not during her kickstarter when the hatred against her hit peak malice, but instead in the middle of a completely different scandal entirely unrelated of her. Otherwise all these people on twitter would have been so busy defending Zoe they forgot all about Anitas new video.

Are gamers so loving stupid they can't figure out that there are valid ways to criticize and debate poo poo without sounding like uneducated, misogynistic shitheads? I don't particularly care for Anita Sarkeesian's style, since I find it's a bit too simple for its own good, and I'm not a fan of Zoe Quinn, but I'm pretty sure threatening to rape someone is a pretty poor loving argument and generally considered unacceptable behavior. It discredits your side! But they can't understand it! So loving dense. It can't just be the internet's/social media's fault that nerds don't understand how to actually argue points, can it? I understand internet anonymity, perceived or otherwise, is a thing, but gamers and other nerds seem so far loving gone when it comes to this poo poo.

People have been murdered for stupider poo poo. No SANE person would murder someone for talking about video games, but then again no sane person would shoot someone because they didn't like his pop songs yet look at John Lennon. Knowing there's a 99% chance that you're getting death threats from trolls and idiots rather than actual crazy people is small comfort when the hypothetical murderous crazy person knows where you live.

I got a few dumbass threats for posting on SA that a lovely indie dev was poo poo a few years ago. Fanatical nerds are everywhere.

the real travesty is that talentless hacks like zoe quinn spread the wrong message about game development, something along the lines of this commercial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXul4ENEYOA making games is hard work and learning to code and/or write and/or design, it's not about social connections and twitter and talking the best thing zoe quinn could do at this point, if she was serious about being game dev (she's not), is shut the gently caress up for a year, hunker down, and make an honest to goodness real live game but i'm convinced she's just a lazy manipulative oval office with an ego problem
