Regardless what you think of TB, we need to combat harassment in chat - I thought that was also what you stood for. Not cool,
@femfreq -
Even more rich is that this person actually faced a ton of harassment from gamergate herself. She would have all the reasons not to write it
-
But sometimes the goal of your piece -combating harassment- is more important

Thanks for jumping in. Laura needs love (not mentioning her so she rests a little)

Anytime. It was a piece that will certainly ruffle some feathers, but if done respectfully, in the end that is what journalism is about.
-
I wholeheartedly agree. I hope she gets better, too

I get that you don't like the guy for what he supported, hell, I think he's trash too. But blaming the author for this is the wrong way

now people are doxxing her over this and I'm sure she's really scared and, god damn, be as considerate as you want others to be

@Totalbiscuit she spoke to - part of a series http://www.kotaku.co.uk/2017/08/15/how-those-most-affected-feel-about-twitchs-lax-moderation … - Laura's also a trans journo who rec'd shitload of hate -
... herself, and for this taken comments/interviews with people who've received a lot of hate online, men and woman (cis and trans) and...
