      Woke up this morning to a dumpster fire in my mentions (I mean it's always a dumpster fire tbf). These fools are still spreading bullshit conspiracies that are so bonkers they aren't worth repeating but it's just so exhausting. I guess being a misogynist asshole never gets old.

      But here's the thing -- these conspiracy theories they've been spreading about me for six years seem ludicrous on the surface but they actually work to infect the cultural understanding of me and my work on a much larger scale than their tiny little woman-hating communities.

          These conspiracy theories range from: I'm embezzling money, I never finished my kickstarter project to bleaching my skin to appear more white and apparently now progressive I'm somehow responsible for the death of an activist.

          Here's a recent example: an academic I met at an event gave me a copy of her book in which she wrote a section about me and was curious what I thought about it. It was a book about feminist discourses and overall she seemed supportive. I had a bit of time so I gave it a read.

          It was enraging to read for many reasons including the lack of basic fact checking but the real problem was she literally quoted GamerGate conspiracies about me as if they were well researched facts... in her academic book!

          Her defense was that she quoted journalists -- as if there aren't a whole slew of journalists who are fully supportive of GamerGate and never do any actual research. This is someone who is SUPPORTIVE OF MY WORK and she bought into these myths.

          These myths are so easy to dispel with just a few google searches but it doesn't matter. These harassers are so loud and persistent that when you hear something enough times, the public starts to believe they are facts.

          hell - you still have not delivered on the promise of 6 videos that were kickstarted and paid for.

          She's been booted from kickstarter for failure to deliver, but she's still claiming that it's a "conspiracy theory".

          Her last fundraising campaign was on "seed and spark", not Kickstarter. Kickstarter is much higher profile, the only reason you use anything else is because you've been banned from KS. See also: Tim Schafer's creation of Fig.

          Yeah, and people can do well with gofundme as well, but in general you don't stop using a particular service for that unless you've been banned or they screwed you over big-time. We know it's the former because can you imagine the uproar there would be if it was the latter?

          your "work" is being a #SWERF and a stalking horse for dead and debunked theories of spooky harmful media influences, theories that are, at most charitable, lame.snowclones of nonsense antiporn radfems of yore peddled.

          You are a sad person. You think that the entire world is out to get you because some NEETs from 4chan shit on your fan-funded video series scam. You preach inclusivity, but practice gatekeeping and gender alienation. You're a hypocrite in every sense of the word. Shame on you.

          so - call me whatever flavor of the month your kind of people like to utilize to avoid answering valid questions, but make no mistake in this - It is YOU personally, not your gender, or other women, that I find to be a deceitful hack manipulating people.
