No, but if you start a contest for character designs for a "feminist" project aimed to get women into video games and use the designs given to you by artists who draw that poo poo...maybe the people running it should reflect on how bad it makes them look?

Can you imagine winning that contest as a woman now? "Congrats! Your pitch won! Now we'll create a game using this waifu character with tonnes of porn and guro already drawn of it as your main character! FEMINISM"

Also I hope this project dies just so then the Fine Young Capitalists dude will shut the gently caress up on tumblr jesus christ. "Someone made a bad article about Vivian James! TIME TO POST QUOTES FROM MLK ABOUT HOW THIS IS OPPRESSION."

Hey horrible retard. Most of the vivian james stuff on tumblr is normal fan art, also there was no contest. /v/ or someone from it pooled their donations so they could pass a threshold to submit a design that will become part of the finished game. The designer and the makers of the game still have full control and the character may end up being the main character or might just be a lovely easter egg.

Hey fellow horrible retard. The original art application was sent in with porn of the character - there was no reason why TFYC couldn't just say "Hey thanks for your submission but no thanks, that doesn't jive with what we're trying to do let's do some revisions." Instead they slapped her on a tshirt with "I don't care if you're queer fat ugly or gay, if you play video games, you're alright with me" that's supposed to be supporting their game project????

Do you not see how it might be an issue to do that poo poo when you're crying about how you're more feminist than Zoe Quinn?

People draw tons of porn of EVERYTHING. Rule 34 is a thing for a reason. This is not a reason to not use a character.

also rainy day i am aware that i am a idiotguy shitlord to you but i think you should give 4chan a fair shake, since it does not at all seem like you are doing it right now. i mean seriously, without accusing them of bullshit they have never done, can you actually go there and point me to posts which are misogynistic in nature and not shouted down big time?

4chan certainly has accumulated a reputation, but lately it has been unfairly accused of poo poo they frankly did not do. find me a single serious, non-drive-by making GBS threads post decrying zoe without multiple counter-replies by the time the thread 404s and i will donate $100 to a charity of your choice (cough TFYC cough)

yup, a feminist non-profit charity which forwards all money from sales to the woman who came up with the game idea, as well as a colon cancer charity (as a reference to totalbiscuit who had a colon cancer scare a while ago)

the sexist devil, i tells ya.

That's not how you run a feminist charity event. See, all donations are supposed to go directly in to the bank account of the organizer.

The thing is nobody was even trying to be in a contest with whatsherface until she made it that way. Nobody but her and her lovely apologists are using some sort of oppression meter to defend their actions and ideals.
