Actual conversation, because I’m living in Bizzaro World: "How many death threats is that now?” Me: “Are you asking all time or just today?”

@femfreq It literally makes NO SENSE at all. Death threats for simply having *opinions about video games*? What is their major malfunction? -
@wagnerfilm@femfreq people kill each other over sports teams. its not an issue with video gamers.. there's an issue with people at large. -
@Ziegsden Well, I get that. People are basically irrational, insecure of their own positions.

@femfreq It starts to just become numb, because that's the only way you don't shut down. -
@Spacekatgal@femfreq it's shameful behavior and it's terrible that people actually think it's any way at all alright to act like that. -
@Spacekatgal@femfreq I hope neither of you will ever quit because you are helping change this industry. -
@Spacekatgal Seeing what you have to endure scares me, especially given what's happened. -
@EvvyKube@Spacekatgal Fear is their goal, no? Don't let that get in the way of your goals. -
@SpaceBuzzKilla Not scared for myself. I don't let myself be bullied. I'm worried about someone unstable enough to hurt someone over this. -
@EvvyKube I worry about that idiot too. But he seems to live off of his parents' credit cards. Doubt they'll buy him a gun. - 1 more reply

@femfreq You know, when someone does more complaining about harassment than trying to fix it, sympathizing with them is extremely hard. -
@BrentJCCherry You're blaming her for getting death threats & asserting it's her responsibility to "fix" that? What's wrong with you? -
@chriscaple That's a straw man argument. I never said that, nor did I imply it in any way. -
@BrentJCCherry No, that's exactly what you said. How, pray, should she "fix" the threats she's inundated with? -
@chriscaple As to how she can fix it? How about reporting them to the admins of the service of which she receives them? Usually works. -
@BrentJCCherry I don't think you have any grasp of the scale of the abuse she gets subjected to. -
@chriscaple Yes I do. I just don't see that as a valid excuse to make no effort in thwarting it. -
@BrentJCCherry Why the hell do you think she makes "no effort"? - 4 more replies

@femfreq Always concerned by the number of people who brush it off. "I get death threats playing games too, it happens." Doesn't make it OK.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
