      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.

          Everyone gives you a difficult time becuase you don’t fact check your video games, you have no idea when it comes to competitive character design. You just make some crap up and call it inequality

          It had nothing to do with Video Games, as she admitted she doesn’t like them or play them. It is and will always be about power and control with her ilk. Best to just ignore them and they go away.

          My point exactly how can she make videos and write about something she has never truly ever looked into too? And she wonders why she gets so much hate.

          She's just mad that the journo quoted something that goes against her victimhood narrative. She doesn't care about truthor ethical reporting in the slightest.

          Hold on now. The 12th part of her 6 month project, which she was paid more than 26x her initial asking price, was completed on the 27th of April last year. Nearly 11x the time she originally said she'd need to do the job. Yeah, I'm never hiring her to do anything.

          And you went to the UN and said anyone calling you a liar was harassing you. Now you're doing it to her. You personally demanded people stop fact checking cause doing so is sexist somehow.

          Being anti @anitasarkeesian or antifeminist is not misogyny. Neither have anything to do with women.

          You’re right. I’m anti-feminist...I just don’t believe that today’s feminism has anything to do with helping women achieve parity since we already have it. Not anti Anita, she’s not important enough for me to consider her at all.

          Modern feminism in north america is just a ploy to divide and segregate men and women and distract us from all the bullshit government and media pulll over our heads while we bicker amongst ourselves about made up issues like wage gaps and pink taxes so they can exploit us

          Stress causes people to unify and makes them easier to lead. Which is why feminists like Anita play up the you are surrounded by misogynists angle of feminism. People unify against enemies.
