Counter point. He only ‘listens’ half the time. 

I wish there was a condition that stopped me from being able to read men’s comments on mainstream news websites. 

I’m diagnosing myself with this right fucking now. My husband can’t complain since he only hears me about half the time anyway.

Pro Tip: You don’t actually HAVE to be suffering from low-frequency hearing loss in order to not hear men’s voices. Just ignore them. When they wave their arms frantically at you, just say “Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t hear you! I have low-frequency hearing loss.”

I got shingles in my ear a few years ago, and that fucked with my ability to hear lower sound registers. It make music sound weird but did not, unfortunately, block out the yammering of man. Quel dommage.

I’m sorry, how do I sign up for this condition? 

Yeah. That shit gets dismissed as soon as I see it. I’m not here for a bad-faith argument about why this abuse was good, actually, and no other abuse ever occurs anywhere.

Nah, it’s just yet another arse who wanted to prove that women in fact have an easier time in gaming, which is why you look at all those “esports” tournies and see all those women right.

Yeah this has basically made it impossible to talk about the actual harassment issues esports and the gaming community at large has because guys just want to point out that the people harassing “Ellie” were right.

So his social experiment was to effectively give all the shithead “Hardcore Gamer” wankers, who spent the whole time peddling “women can’t be that good” or transphobic shit, an example to use against any woman who manages to beat the system and to make anyone who instinctively saw this as yet another attack on…

Someone on Yr Wonket described her rather aptly as performing the absolutely necessary party function of bomb-thrower. Thing is, she’s not just being a douchebag troll, but is throwing actual solid policy back at them, and it’s devastating. *swoon*

Thanks to this asshole he’s going to make it even HARDER for women to break into e-sports as they’re going to be instantly assumed to be a guy or a fake of some kind. So yay, the harassment is going to get WORSE.

Fuck the esports community for being threatening and hostile towards women, and fuck Punisher for validating the shitty beliefs and expectations of the horrible misogynists that make esports such a cesspool.

I love what she’s doing here because the right is doing exactly what they did to Hillary Clinton for years. But instead of waffling or trying to prove that she isn’t all these terrible things they say (remember Hillary baking cookies as first lady to try and appease the right?) AOC is doubling down and throwing her…

“Leftist ideas” that used to be centrist ideas that Dems and Repubs agreed on, way back in the 70s, before the entire government was fully bought and paid for.

I know it’s very early, but so far she’s been an incredible advocate for leftist ideas. She’s taken policy prescriptions that have been around for some time and put a more palatable spin on them. Bernie took some of these ideas and brought them forth into the mainstream with his 2016 run, but a younger, more social…

I know it’s deliberately aimed at their base and he probably isn’t that stupid, but the fact a lot of the GOP base don’t know what a tax band is pretty fucking hilarious in terms of stupidity.

Fdr set the rate even higher than what she wants to put it at so it’s hardly an impossible ask.

I like that she succinctly states facts to refute the idiotic feces throwing of her (mostly) republican detractors. It just makes her look strong, confident and well versed in policies that will help the overwhelming majority of Americans that are falling behind. Unfortunately, this will not matter to the dwindling…

They trying to make her unlikable. But they just showing how stupid they are. They just gotta hope Fox News doesn’t show how easily she rips apart their arguments against her.
