Ah yes, it's all a conspiracy of the liberal media. Thanks for identifying yourself as a clueless right wing chucklefuck.
You're joking, right? Her videos have been absolutely demolished by anyone who spends more than 3 seconds thinking about them. Some of her examples have been entirely debunked - she simply made up facts to back her argument.
Of course, you probably never heard of any of this because of the incredibly persuasive response to those debunking her bullshit: misogyny!
You should try reading posts you reply to rather than spewing out a kneejerk "SJW-feminazi" response.
OP was pointing out that if the original response had been to debate and defeat her arguments, that would have been sufficient to put the whole thing to bed. Instead, it was used as an excuse to push out piles of unpleasant misogynistic crap which actually reinforced her argument that a lot of games/gamers are misogynistic.
It's analogous to gamers responding to Jack Thompson's claim that games make people violent by going out and shooting him.
The USA system has worked well for centuries why mess it up?
Because there's a significant number of people here that are hostile towards religion in any shape or form. The mere fact that it exists drives them insane.
As an atheist, I can safely say that my view of religion is essentially the same as towards people who believe in astrology, fairies or alien abductions, i.e. it's your problem
The difference is that religions think they have the right to make it my problem too.
If Stalin was trying to purge religion from the world 200 years later he did a shit job of it.
Yes, but at least he tried.
It's the logical extension of libertarianism, I suppose.
You have the right to free speech, that doesn't mean everybody has to listen to you.
The "new" meaning (an individual that's deliberately abusive or deliberately fans the flames)
Actually, the new meaning is: someone who holds an unpopular opinion.
Just because an opinion is unpopular doesn't mean it's right.
If you want to use the internet to post anonymous messages threatening to rape children, don't be surprised if people get annoyed.

Oops, what a giveaway, you racist twat.
And "quoting" is somewhat different from "shouting through a fucking megaphone".
How's that insightful?
Linking to an xkcd cartoon is pretty much a guarantee of a +5 Insightful mod on slashdot. Fuck knows why, especially when it's as moronic as that one.
"Congress shall make no law...abridging the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances."
Well it's not difficult for a government to turn a peaceful demonstration into a violent one, all you need to do is get the police to attack with batons and break a few limbs and you'll generally get a response. And you can then declare a riot and martial law.
I do sometimes wonder at the naivety of Americans who think that the Constitution in itself can prevent fascism.
You are very wrong, at least in Spain, there are ALWAYS more protests against left governs than against the right wing governs for simple reason, right wings are extremists and they don't care about people so they don't simply give a f*ck about persons and their rights
On slashdot, right wing is good and left wing is bad. If a right wing person murders someone, then they're no true right winger. Oh, and Nazi stands for National Socialist so all left wingers are fascists.
A failure will not appear until a unit has passed final inspection.
