Laura K Dale wrote a series of 4? last week on harassment on VOD and streaming platforms

http://www.kotaku.co.uk/2017/08/15/how-those-most-affected-feel-about-twitchs-lax-moderation

Her last was an interview with Totalbiscuit who has an interesting viewpoint as being seen by the outrage warrior types as a alt-right loony for making some illadvised comments about consumer advocacy during the gamergate idiocy then more recently throwing an 8chan troll out of a convention for asking 'are traps gay' making him a target for the pepe brigade.

Sarkeesian tweeted out

https://twitter.com/femfreq/status/897886510409687041

Which led to her followers deluging abuse on Dale and causing her to post this

https://archive.fo/qsJJf/e880abcb04650ea9d7819108591781c2dac46e4f

then delete her posts and hide her twitter for a few days while she dealt with the shitstorm of getting doxxed and harassed.

http://www.kotaku.co.uk/2017/08/17/on-our-totalbiscuit-article

The editor elected to say the Journalist was wrong for writing the story and appologised to the people harassing her.

https://twitter.com/Totalbiscuit/status/898208422327443456

Totalbiscuit did what he always does then dusted off his old law degree and suggested he will sue Kotaku UK for libel

edit: its worth noting the widely recognised 'start' of gamergate was the 27th

i don't give a poo poo about totalbiscuit or anything about you-know-what, but it's pretty funny that he was making GBS threads blood for a while, ignored it, then went to a doctor months later and found out he had rear end cancer that could have been more easily treated had he decided to see one earlier

You're posting in it.


But it's p. cool to be called a nazi apologist and a fascist for defending the ACLU, using their talking points and saying that physical violence is a bad response to speech

Hey so here's the thing this is not the first time people have gone whoa whoa whoa you can NOT just do violence at a Nazi for saying Nazi poo poo

Hell you can trace it back to

Lemme just check here

Oh yeah 1930s Germany

You can in fact do violence at a nazi, because their ideology is, in totality, violence, every word they speak is in service of that violence, and they have no compunction against doing a violence at you

You can't beat them by pointing at the rules because they don't give a gently caress about your rules

You beat them by making sure they know they will not be tolerated, whether that's getting them fired, shouting them down at rallies, or yes punching their fuckin teeth out of their skull

gently caress you and your insistence on nonviolence.

They should be disabused of that notion at high speed, too, namaste

If you stand shoulder to shoulder with people yelling blood and soil you deserve to get hit just as much as they do for supporting them

So uh if you are all for workers protections and against right to work, why are you championing an employer firing people for privately held political views they don't express in the workplace. Obviously if they were overtly nazi in the workplace they would be fired for it already.

Most business owners sure as gently caress aren't trade unionists or swampies so making firing people forpolitical views they don't express in the workplace totes legal is one of the most obvious bad ideas I can think of.

White nationalists are not nice people and deserve mockery but you need to think about what the actual results of your latest great idea is before you go charging off to do it. Social media seems to have convinced a generation that your public and private lives are the same and you should be ruined forever if you make the slightest slip up (being a nazi isn't a slight slip up obviously).

Much like the issue with reform and turning the process from vengeance to reform, you should be taking the lesson of not all Nazis or white nationalists are irredeemable.

You would think that, but the people you are arguing with are fetishtizing violence against the ever expanding "other." They obviously aren't consistent in their beliefs and only talk about punching Nazi's because that is popular right now. I'm sure once the next Woke Woman movie comes out, they will get over it and not post about violence as often as a sociopath does.
