SJW is not an insult - if you think it is, you are awful and stupid. And yes, those of us who believe in the dignity of all humans do in fact get to set the moral standards. Sorry if you don't qualify.

No, no I did not. First, anyone who uses SJW as an insult is by definition an idiot and an awful person. Second - you bet those of us who respect the dignity of all human beings get to set moral standards! Third - it's not bullying to point out that someone is an asshole, particularly if they are in fact an asshole.
You're branded a misogynist when you do or say misogynistic things. Don't say or so such thing, you won't get called on it. If you keep getting called that, there's a good chance the problem is you.
Bullshit - these folks hated Anita from day one. As an academic, I find her critiques of games to be mild and straightforward. That your average gamegater sees her work as some sort of deceitful, hate-filled diatribe tells us a lot more about them than it does about her. (And as for that Hitman thing being a lie - I…

I found a clip of Vandenburg's attorney practicing presenting his "too drunk" argument to the jury:
Why else would you nitpick some trivial detail and conclude that Sarkesian is, and I quote, "a complete liar"? Because when someone makes the fairly mundane and rather obvious statement that there is a lot of sexism in games, you think it's about you. And given you reaction, the funny thing is, it actually is - if…
Um dude, don't repeat poisonous lies that have been used to subject individuals to extraordinary harassment if you want to be taken seriously. It's like an interview I read the other day with a gut who offhandedly said that Orthodoxy was a branch of the Catholic Church. I don't need to read anything else to know he…
Well your boldface type repeats the lie that started this whole mess, so what do you expect?
People who send death and rape threats are a little hard to ignore.
Basically, you are an extremely defensive individual who can't see past your own privilege. You can't follow a scholarly argument and you don't understand what an illustrative example is. You're like those folks who think that if it snows in Chicago in February, then there is no such thing as global warming.
Yes, that's an issue worth sending people death threats over.
There are people who notice that there are problems with sexism and harassment in the gaming world and talk about it, and there are the people get very mad if you talk about the sexism and harassment in the gaming world. Those are the two sides.
Maybe they were just hypotheticals?
Yes, but do it on Kickstarter.
That....was surreal.
Which is why you do not change lanes when you can't see the lane. The driver was hard on the tail of the truck she tried to pass on the right. She had no idea what was in that lane because she did not take the time to look.
It was poisoned from the start, and it has never cleared that poison from its system.
