So now she's bad for not spending her money quick enough. gotcha.

Claiming "no they didn't take her out of context and there's plenty of other evidence" isn't a rebuttal.

You do realise that $150,000 isn't a huge amount of money spread out over 3 years? I've made more than that working 9 to 5 since her kickstarter. So yeah, if she's been living on an average of $25,000 per year I'm not going to complain at all.

well hey, Sarkeesian occasionally publishes selections of her harassment. Go find TotalBiscuit's and compare.

Oh, and lest we forget, Thunderf00t's Patreon campaign kicks him $3,000 every time he posts a video, and unlike Feminist Frequency, he's not a registered non-profit and doesn't publish his accounts.

"I'm not sure which part of this very simple evidential standard you are having trouble with, but it literally the highest standard of a rebuttal. Actually you know what, before you comment again, go spend some time reading Grahams Hierarchy of Disagreement."

I'd be wanting a hell of a lot more money from Milo Yiannopoulos before I'd even consider stepping into the same city as him, let alone the same room and more again to speak with him. He's a bigot of the highest order.

Pretty sure that's a David Cronenberg movie

I'll even admit to thinking that Just the Way you Are isn't all that bad, for what it is. Part of the problem is that so many other songs have come along and done that soft jazz crooner thing that it's a lot more bland now than it was 38 years ago (not that it was a font of originality back then).

Hmm, given the problems you seem to have with defining 'translate', this could just be a communication issue.

Shush now, that's groupthink or something.

No, I know exactly what I said. If you don't understrand that complaining about someone cherry-picking by picking one example and going over it again and again is itself cherry-picking (and hugely hypocritical)- well, I can't help you.

Have you actually watched any of the rebuttal videos? They're laughable at best. My favourites are the ones that complain that she cherry-picks examples and then spend half an hour going on about the 18 seconds of one video that talks about Hitman.

To be fair, a facile and ultimately bigoted opinion is a very easy way to dismiss said opinion

First: citation needed.

I don't know if I'd say that's a universal truth, but there's definitely something to it. At the same time, you'd rarely see Clinton or Sanders referred to as Bill or Bernie when someone's referring to them, even critically.

Wow. That's a good point. Let me think about it for a bit.

Being too lazy to learn how to spell her surname isn't as smart as you may think!

I find you can tell a lot about critics of Sarkeesian based on how they parse her name. When she's just called "Anita", she's far more likely to be belittled, marginalised, dismissed or be accused of whatever the current flavour of bullshit against her is.

I thought it was hilarious.
