You used a strawman by claiming I said that the whole movement is null and void, that was not the argument I was using, my argument was that the movement is toxic and counterproductive, and if you stand with that movement, you have to take responsibility for that agenda, and it is fundamentally not the same as, say

Now you're using the strawman, I replied to your point exactly as you presented it, read through your own arguments. You compared the poisonous gamergaters to looters, but it's fundamentally different as the looters, did not ever self identify as part of the Ferguson movement, while those in Gamergate, DOES. That is

False equivalencies. Please read up on that.

Except, that's not the case here. Ferguson, Occupy, these were movements against oppression by a majority.

Here's the thing. If you're mad at the victims, then there's nothing I can say or do that will have you re-examine your ability to empathize with others.

You don't speak for all gamers. Don't want to be a misogynist, then don't support misogynistic endeavors.

Not a couple psychopaths, a whole lot of people using anonymity as a shield to systematically target female dissent within a community.

Statement doesn't work because women don't have access to assisted suicide as well. Choose a male only health issue and then we can re-evaluate the validity of your statement.

Finding a good tattoo artist is actually really hard, most of them are glorified tracers, very few have actual training in draftstmanship and illustration. Most tattoo artists have been self taught and apprenticed to other tattoo artists, the really good, high demand artists are few and far between i.e, Shawn Barber

Yea, most people use it, I can't deny that. My gut feeling at the article was disbelief at first too, because I could not imagine myself going through that situation, but I find it believable because I have a cousin who is a similar age, and she has idols, and she has friends that value social fame and I can very

That is my least favorite tactic of argument, lumping people in with broad labels to disqualify any argument they may present, it's like when people call other people "sheep," in which they have no real evidence of lack of intelligence. They use it to preemptively sabotage any argument they might be faced with from a

I'm curious, what about the other rape allegation? The video at the end of the article.

To outsiders, especially older people, this story is hard to swallow. Because inevitably, you position yourself in her shoes and wonder what you would do. But the thing that you have to realize is, she is a starstruck teenage girl at the time. Fandom is scary, you crave the attention of your idols, no matter how

Unless this App includes a health feature that is male specific, I don't have enough energy to get pissed about it, seems completely gender neutral. Which is fine by me, if I needed to track my period, I would download another app.

To clarify, I'm not white but thanks.

I understand your point, I just don't see the need for all the aggressiveness. Cause that sure works well in communicating with other humans.

That's the feeling I got too, that she thought she was being helpful in some way. Nope.

Those comments can be super annoying, but I would take that versus the alternative(i.e., not empathizing at all), at least in this case this person was trying to empathize, no one can know what another person's struggle is, all we can do is empathize and be aware of the differences and keep in perspective.

Nope, no one said this at all either. Indicator doesn't mean universal at all, just as how some doesn't equal all, and a bit is the same as not as much.

Deal.
