He's gamergating. Anita Sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn talked to the UN about harassment of women on the Internet.

If you feel like untangling those tweets, there's the RW List of Gamergate claims.

Rationalist Tumblr (which Wesley is active in) is totally convinced Zoe Quinn abused the poo poo out of poor widdle Eron Gjoni, after a detailed post on the subject from Ozy which they've now deleted. Like don't get us wrong, harassment is bad! But she's an evil bitch, so. But don't get us wrong, harassment is bad!

It's just Eron complaining about how she cheated on him. Which may or may not be true, who gives a poo poo. He posted it in various nerd nests on the internet to drum up a lynch mob in an attempt to ruin her life. And the "rationalists" ate it up, because they are undersexed nerds who hate women, I guess.

At any rate it isn't worth digging up.

Literature is not exhaustible, for the sufficient and simple reason that no single book is. A book is not an isolated being: it is a relationship, an axis of innumerable relationships.

I think that Zoe Quinn had an account here at some point but she hasn't used it in forever, since well before the current nonsense. It's just another point on their checklist, which also includes "dyes her hair".

They may not be laughing at the satire of :biotruths: but they're almost certainly laughing at the general satire of absurd :pseudo:, like catapulting babies, the real reason for the middle-aged man's spare tire, why babies cry and their use in warfare, and why mammals sleep.

The alt-right would never dream of mocking Eron Gjoni's hurt feelings, but multitudes of online harassment, a lot of it specifically misogynist, is the same as "hurt feelings."

On Twitter. I posted the image and link a few times in this thread, search my posts (cos I can't be bothered). He was arguing with Jeet Heer and someone posted a screencap, which is all we have left since his account got nuked.

That bit's about Zoe Quinn, but in general yes: SA is the source of all evil, and Ron Paul fans literally started Tumblr SJW.

You don't get it. They are way worse, demanding porn and videogames for women! No longer will you be able to just grab whatever video game from Steam, some of them might feature women who are not sexually available and yet successful have agency of their own without being villains and might even be better at things than male characters. How is a man to relax around such horrible things?

Zoe Quinn once tweeted about posting in Helldump and instantly convinced a bunch of gamergate dorks that Helldump was some kind of secret SJW lair. Combined with D&D/ex-LF goons' role in attacking Reddit for hosting kiddie porn and in getting /r/ShitRedditSays going, it's not uncommon for them to believe that SomethingAwful is the graveyard where skeleton warriors plan their attacks on freedom.
