apparently CNN thinks it's a big thing....
CNN, another newsgroup known for bias and running a story without fact checking.
I like how they fail to mention the part where Anita has faked her own death threats on multiple occasions, and has been caught red handed. At one point she cried out about death threats via Twitter, that didn't exist until
four hours later. I also like how they fail to mention how she doctors footage in her own "Feminist Frequency" videos to try and support her completely deranged fantasies of the real world. If you did that in a court of law or anywhere even remotely official,
it'd be a crime. (An infamous example is how she tries to paint Hitman: Absolution as a game promoting the murder and objectification of women. When in the game, you get
outright penalized for murdering civilians, and yes, that includes women. So... Wheee~)
Essentially: She's Jack Thompson 2.0 with tits.jpg installed, only instead of games promoting violence, it's games promoting violence... Specifically against women. Because sexism.
(Note: I'm not even going to pretend that gaming doesn't have sexism, because it most certainly does. But to pretend that the entire medium somehow creates sexists--and that is a claim she makes--is... Baffling, at best. It'd be like claiming that the Bible causes everyone who reads it to become mass murderers.)
Oh, and the best part is, sourcing
any of this is difficult due to the fact that she is constantly censoring any dissenting opinions, to the point where she helped in getting Thunderf00t's Twitter account shut down for even talking about Gamergate. That should tell you all you need to know about the quality of her character. It's just that she's a woman and people don't like her, so naturally, biased, left wing press will jump to her defense without thinking about it because the news often doesn't give itself the time to properly fact check anything. They just see a damsel in distress and
go for it.
