I kinda feel the same way about when people pat themselves on the back for "acknowledging their privilege". At some point, it just starts to sound like bragging.

Oh, you're half-Venezuelan. Wait, what does that have to do with anything. Does it give you special insight to the experience of young black people. Seriously, how does that work? Show me a flow chart.

To be fair, it's a lot more daunting to address the criticisms made by feminists of color than it is to snarkily dismiss an MRA tool-bag. You can't blame a starving blogger for jumping at low hanging fruit.

Um, wow. So basically if you're white and upper-class, behaving like a sociopath is just "quirky and adorkable".

Can I still not like her even though I totally don't think she did anything close to sexual abuse? I just really don't like her.

Something that really bums me out about this whole #gamergate dumpster fire is the response from otherwise reasonable gamers. What's happening to Anita Sarkeesian is clearly harassment that extends far beyond mere trolling. There seems to be this resistance to acknowledge that fact and it seems to be purely based on…

What's this agenda? Reporting on a noteworthy story?

Adventure Time, Gravity Falls and Korra are VASTLY superior to the majority of cartoons I grew up with. And I say this as a grown ass man in a neon green Rocko's Modern Life t-shirt.

I don't really understand this hostility towards diversity in our media. For me, it's an accurate expression of what my life looks like. While white people make up the predominance of the people around me, there are also Indian people, Pakistani people, Ethiopian people, Korean people... seriously, a United Nations…

Not really. Certain white people like the idea of being a black person, but without all those inconvenient disadvantages.

Why do all these cretins look the same? Mark my words, in the future the Bieber-cut will become shorthand for "Hi, today I'll be your date-rapist".

While I can't speak for Ms. Pompeo, I can say that there are times when I'd kinda like the (often self-appointed) "allies" to maybe step aside and let people speak for themselves.

There's a nasty habit of infantilizing and struggle appropriation that happens sometimes. It just gets exhausting hearing straight, white…

Ah, fair enough. I've been watching this debate go on for awhile, and I'm always surprised at how people are willing to dismiss the idea that LGBT people might view things differently and shut them out of the conversation completely.

"These are characters clearly designed to appeal to young, straight men, and they are doing that by disempowering women and providing a ridiculous image of feminine sexuality. That's a problem"

While I'll grant you the second part of this statement, don't you think that maybe your view is a bit heteronormative? The…

Someone doesn't know about the "bear community". I know hundreds (not an exaggeration) of men who find men who look like those drawings the pinnacle of beauty.

Just because you "checked" and decided that they didn't fit the "modern idea of a sexy male" (whatever that's supposed to mean), doesn't mean that people…

Wait? Those are supposed to be women? Because I've never seen a woman so grotesquely malformed.

That being said, the big burly hairy mens are totally hot. I'm not even joking.

Further proof that gamers WILL be offended by ANYTHING.
