I find it really funny that the same type of people who really wanted assange pinned for rape are willing to dismiss the lack of consent here that pretty much applies the same definition. I'm 100% confident that without context of thise case pretty much everyone would agree that lack of informed consent is sexual abuse but no it puts them on the defensive here so they have to deny deny deny.

I learned a couple months ago that there's one Twitter harassment tactic that involves sending tweets from accounts with 0 tweets then deleting them so fast that Twitter's real time search doesn't index them, but they still show up if you're sitting there reading your notifications. It's a fabulous idea for someone who wants to build up a narrative about how they're being harassed along with a way to score extra victimhood points when people look up the tweets and say "uh, I don't actually see these tweets anywhere."

Seriously though, making fun of the ex is fun and all but the roller coaster of madness here is unbelievable, 4chan is donating to women's game development charities while some SJW identified fools are trying to bring them down, a bunch of nutters are making Glenn-Beck style conspiracy flow charts about how gaming journalism has no integrity, gaming journalists are insulting gamers for taking games too seriously while writing about how Sonic the Hedgehog is a metaphor for the Israel-Gaza conflict, and tat this point he only level-headed person involved is a 13-year old boy.

So if people seem to be going easy on the ex it's just because his pathetic poo poo got upstaged 200 pages back by a collection of internet dweebs so insane that they could have stepped out of a Carl Haissen novel.

The whole thing is like some holy-roller getting caught in a gay affair. It's news because the person build their public persona on promoting some 'virtue'. And then acted the totally opposite way in public.

she isn't a rapist but if you have a conversation with your partner and you both decide that cheating without telling your partner is sex with out consent, then at the very least she had non consensual sex with him.

Given she's pulled some poo poo in the past, it's fair game to question her honesty. Also there's really no harm in posting the police report, it takes a few minutes to redact personal info.

Because police are really good at convicting perpetrators of sexual violence against women; 3% is a good outcome.

You posted the report, so why isn't the perpetrator in jail now :smug:

Nope, that's actually one of the main complaints. Basically the closest you'll get to well-researched and impartial views are this thread and some of the individual tumblr articles (of all things) linked in this thread. Basically the easiest summery is outspoken feminists sexually abuses her boyfriend then uses internet social progressiveness to try and smother all criticism by labeling it as misogyny, this caused a backlash that's been slowing pushing as more and more people read past the initial clickbait articles and learn that zoe was a terrible person who did terrible things to people who loved her and this has called a bunch of sites, people, and communities into question over how honestly they handle these kind of issues.

I'm annoyed at stupidity on the left. Everyone sees the problem with:
Bush is a Patriot. He's trying to help the country. You disagree with him. Why do you hate America?

But switch out the stage-dressing and people will defend:
Zoe is a feminist. She's trying to help women. You disagree with her. Why do you hate women?

It's gross that people who stake their careers on being progressive will leap to the defence of an abuser -- so long as the abuser's using the right jargon.

That 3% looks really good against not reporting it all. I bet they also get much more than 3% when the twisted, detailed threat was posted to the internet and left a trail of electronic records, as opposed to happening in private with no witnesses. What are you arguing for, exactly, that she shouldn't report it to the police?

And who the gently caress reposts verbatim the twisted rapey death threats they've received? People just don't do that.
