Everyone knows that entitled white males are the bane of society. They sit in their mother's basement thinking they are safe from womyn's wrath.

Anita will kick in their doors and drag them screaming into the light of day. Then they will be dragged off to feminist reeducation camps to learn that they are inferior to those gifted with vaginas.

Charlie I'd say that being a scam artist, purposely misrepresenting things and omitting details in order to support her arguments, and stealing other peoples work while crediting it as her own is reason enough to dislike her.

I won't touch her arguments because that's a can of worms that I don't really feel like getting into.


Probably biting onto your bait here, but whatever.

Signature goes here.
Other than cherry picking arguments, telling flat out lies and being one of the four horsemen of the video game industry after the disaster that was GG, sure, she did nothing wrong.

People demonize her for no good reason.

She's become the "acceptable" feminist to hate as a proxy for people who hate feminism but don't want to admit it.

We knew the world would not be the same.
A few people laughed, a few people cried, most people were silent.
I remembered the line from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita.
Vishnu is trying to persuade the Prince that he should do his duty
and to impress him takes on his multi-armed form and says,
"Now, I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.."
I suppose we all thought that one way or another.
My only gripe with her is that she clearly takes things out of context to suit her own narrative, and she'll well are of that.

Her arguments, which are the only thing that really matters.

Not her character, not the things she's done--her arguments.

Which he refuses to talk about because "can of worms."

This is not the greatest sig in the world, no. This is just a tribute.
She should get a real job and contribute to society.

"Purposely misrepresenting things and omitting details in order to support her arguments"

I'd say that's at least somewhat relevant.

Can we just stop talking about her? Her opinions are purposely overexaggerated to clearly annoy people. Sure she brings up the occasional good point but she always places a false agenda against what is actually happening.

Her persona annoys me, Im not a sexist pig but why am I being painted as one just for playing a game?

I can only think of one example where she's blatantly done that, with her Hitman footage.

Good post.

It was in response to Charlie saying that there's no good reason to dislike her. Personally I think stealing other peoples work and calling it your own is plenty enough reason to dislike someone. I also think that scamming people out of their money is another valid reason to dislike someone.

Her arguments however are a matter of opinion and I don't feel like getting into a debate on them.

My point is validated by your responses. You guys overreact whenever she's brought up. You act like she's the devil incarnate trying to end your lifestyle forever.

Her initial videos were about tropes in gaming. To be frank, she's partly correct. Females in games are trophies. There are only a few exceptions to this. That motivation in games is tired and worn out.

Since then Gamers and the online community have given her all the ammo she needs. Posting like you guys do IS sexist and demeaning. Now she has a crusade and her opposition is demonizing itself.

Try backing off and accepting that maybe she has a point and all of her ammo goes away.

But keep on keeping on. Every post against her proves she has a point

That's the big one AFAIK. Really turned me off to all the rest of her work because to me, it's pretty clear she doesn't really have an interest in games or making gaming better.

Hard to get behind someone pushing for change in a medium they don't particularly care for.

I'm going to assume this is a broad sweeping generalization because no one here that's given a serious response has overreacted yet.

Nobody is overreacting. People are having a discussion and if you don't read into it/read it with an extreme negative tone of voice it's a lot easier to read and respond legitimately.

Exactly this. Seriously, every response here has been pretty tame so far (besides the fact that some people are disagreeing with the main point).

You're not.
It seemed like that Hitman footage portrayed us as wanting to hurt women, that we have no other option due to the way they dress ect ect. Where in fact I could just sneak past and listen to their really sad lives....why would anyone want to hurt them?

Oh, nobody is overreacting?

She's on some team on twitter.

"It's the end of free speech!"

Or even in this thread:

"What she says is dangerous"

Dangerous to whom? Why?

He's like a little Anita.

But seriously. It's pretty clear now Charlie doesn't really give a shit. I'm done participating in this thread. I suggest you do the same.

Actually, I do.

By acting the way she predicts, we give her the ammunition to use against us.

Games do have sexist tropes.

Gamers do act in a sexist manner.

Her points aren't without merit. Now, a few do go to extremes and give her points that she rallies large numbers against. Does everyone think she should be beaten? Of course not. But no one says anything about those who do say that.

You want to make her lose her power? Try saying that she's correct on some issues and then call out the extremists. Then she deals with rational people instead of a sexist mob. Now the masses tell her there isn't a problem and she goes away.
