        Like what happened here is tragic but drop your agenda for a moment to realize someone just lost their life to a violent action, no one insulted or criticized her to death

        She can't do that, Don't think she'd know how to act without her agenda showing her the way.

        I'll hold no ill will towards her personally, I believe her ideals and agenda are less than honorable, however.

        I'm afraid anecdotal evidence does not create a trend/correlation or infer causation.

        Imagine sending this when Anita has faced numerous death threat for years. It’s like you are more made at Anita talking about feminism and video games than the toxic visceral abuse she faced.

        I'm not mad at anyone. Anita is using an anecdote in place of hard data. A baseless accusation is just that, baseless. I will quite happily change my mind if she provides the facts. I do not condone death threats, or trolling using them.

        Then go and hold the trolls accountable rather than critiquing the factual backing behind someone saying ‘online harrassment is bad’.

        Replying to @angusmcdangus @spotapattern @anitasarkeesian

        I am not responsible for ineffectual trolls. I do take issue with someone of some influence asserting something without due evidence. Recognising a problem also involves not misrepresenting the problem so appropriate action can be taken.

        You're not responsible for effectual trolls either. It's not as if Anita didn't get serious traction to catch these people either, the FBI got involved to investigate threats. People are exhausted of her constant lording over and shaming people as if they're guilty. /

        People know online harassment is bad, people aren't generally sexist, homophobic, trans-phobic, etc..each of those things just chips away at people. We also know that people are assholes, so most people don't doubt Anita's gotten these kinds of things said to her.

        I wrote something so compelling for all the apes commenting, but alas, I reflected and decided that was a waste of my time. Anita, please don't ever stop this fight. All minority groups need someone like you. Thank you so much.

        Calling people apes is a good way for people to not take you seriously, not like anyone with half a brain would either way though. You absolutely are wasting your time because youve yet to step out of your echo chamber safe space and delve into the real fact based world. 😂
