Does it go the other way, though. Were you completely silent on ZQ thing along with most of your site? What was your opinion when Max Temkin was accused of sexual assault and then ravaged with threats online? From what I've read of yours, silence. Complete silence. That's bias. Of course you'd be against online…

which video game?

There's a common trope of framing Sarkeesian's work as "cherry-picked", as she takes isolated examples from many games and presents them as a stream of misogyny in order to create the illusion that all of these games are entirely misogynist, the entire way through. That's a fundamental misunderstanding of what it…

We know, it shows in the bias.

Why does this shit appear under kotakucore?

That sword cuts both ways; a good many people on Sarkeesian's side of the debate can be as loud, obnoxious, and vitriolic as those this article is claiming she faces.

The point being is that this content is of the sort which would be posted on Jezebel. You frame it as a 'well reasoned' piece which advocates a 'mutually respectful' debate about gender issues - it is neither of these things. It is clickbait which appeals to SJWs and falls in line with the dominant social narrative,…

Indeed, but it continues the narrative of, "Anita is purely the victim and everyone is attacking her" for the most part.

I definitely agree with this, she's not acknowledging any of the games which work against sexism. We're at a point where it will be more constructive to look at the games that are doing right and promote them instead of putting down the games that have been sexist. (Especially if you haven't completely done your…

Just from the comments section here, I can see that there are definitely plenty of people who actually can provide a rational, and more importantly, civil counterargument. I think the problem (and now that I think about it, quite ingenious on her part) is that she does things like disable comments on her video which…

Very true. She does not deserve any of the abuse she has had to endure.

My solution is quite clearly in the post: "If she really does investigative journalism she should go into a debate with both supporters and critics of her vids but she wont. She should look at both sides of the glass but she doesnt."

While people sending death threats and whatnot through social media isn't excusable, that shouldn't be a point to raise her up. Plenty of other people get this kind of hate but no one makes that a bullet point on why you should pay attention to them more than anyone else who's received the same attacks.

I disagree with her vehemently, because she doesn't understand narrative, and she's demonstrated that many times, and many of the "tropes" she uses are far more multi-faceted than she even begins to admit to (The Damsel in Distress being the big one), and I feel she should be ignored because she's a terrible academic.…

A) She hardly had to do that. Anyone who's spent a day on gaming internet message boards knows it's never real. I'm in no way defending the ***hats who were actually harassing her, but let's not claim her life or safety was in any danger. The whole calling the police this was just a neat marketing gimmick, and…

To me, this well is beyond poisoned. Debating her ideas is impossible because of extremes from both side foaming at the mouth at anyone who doesn't agree with them. This is why me, and those smarter than me, have withdrawn from anything relating to her and her views. You get torn to pieces for not agreeing with the…

While she makes good points, she doesn't spend her time highlighting that Female representation has drastically improved( it's still not equal, but we've come a hell of a long way) since the dawn of gaming, other times, it kind feels like she fails to get the point of some games, one episode she went on about the…

Why is it that ALL rational debate about her is dismissed as violent and misogynistic? Why is it that no one seems to talk about the people who bring up rational arguments with the flaws in some of her arguments and the method in which she argues?

You nailed it. Let's be best friends.

Calling the trolls harassing her "rational debate" is indeed insulting to rational debate. But the issue is that the attempts at rational debate also get labeled as harassment/misogyny/trolling by the SJW crowd who apparently can't fathom that anything Anita would say might be factually incorrect or even debatable.
