    She's the self-proclaimed crusader for women's rights in gaming and has made a career of waving her vagina around like a placard. The reason she keeps getting dragged in is because Zoe and her whiteknight dick-parade has twisted this whole thing into a hatecampaign against women instead of justified criticism against corrupt media fucktards.

    Can you tell what side I land on? subtle ain't I? :)

    Water might or might not be a bit wet, too.

    And that's all I'm gonna say about this because I'm slowly coming around to the opinion that almost everyone involved on both sides is incapable of counting to twenty-one without losing the pants.

    Or, they could just be the sort of people who actually use things like Twitter. I wouldn't know.

    Sadly true. What's worrying though is that some of those people are "journalists" who are in a position where they can influence the opinion of thousands of people.

    Think anyone would have ever known/ cared if he wasn't such a massive dickhead?

    Lots of things happening tonight. First off TFYC reached their $65000 goal, so that's great!

    Other than that is that this Twitter account is mighty interesting right now: https://twitter.com/Nero. Basically a British journalist has dug up some things that point to Sarkeesian lying about having contacted authorities after her alleged harassment. He also has been in contact with charities Zoe claimed to support with the money she made of Depression Quest, they've never heard of her before.

    They're run by better people than me. I'd have completely lost my shit if a nobody SJW unjustly nuked my charity.

    Well he is telling the truth about the the SF police not having an August harassment case for Sarkisian. Aurini put up a vid of him calling the San Fran police department and asking them questions while he recorded it. Course we have no way to guarantee that the man on the other side WAS with the police.

    Assume it's complete bullshit until proven otherwise. Breitbart is not trustworthy.

    No I meant Aurini himself called the San Fran police department and vid taped the conversation. While we can't confirm that the guy on the other end was an actual spokesmen for the SFPD he did say that no cases or reports were made in august.

    Ah, I gotcha. Honestly though I mostly just wonder why people doubt it's legit in the first place. She gets a ton of views on her videos anyway, and she already made her money on her kickstarter; I don't see the point in lying about any of this.

    So...ya, This is just some of the shit that's been happening. As always, take from it what you will, but it looks like this is gonna be a long haul.

    Edit: I don't know what it says that my respect for SB and DLP was raised simply cause the mods are letting these threads exist.
