Is it really so controversial that it requires all dissent to be silenced? All of her videos were about criticizing and creating discussion. That being the case, why is everyone so opposed to the same discussion without heavy handed censorship silencing all opposition? Doesn't it seem hypocritical to anyone?
Why wont anyone talk about the Anita Sarkesian scandal?
This topic is locked from further discussion.

Uh, what's the scandal?
The fact that she ran off with over $100k?
It boggles my mind that people thought she needed people to send her both thousands of dollars as well as games (and critisism of games) to create some flamebait videos.
And then no-one even cared when she never made the videos...
Because if you disagree with Anita Sarkeesian and have legit criticism, you get ignored.
If you throw shit at her, they throw the spotlight on you, use you as an excuse to call every male a sexist and lift every clue of responsibility from women.
On the other hand, if you point out that she's half a year late with her videos and that she scammed everyone, you get banned too.

Oh yeah, we definitely talked about her being a fraud. I'm not sure there's much more to say.
No I dont disagree with you, Im flagging you because youre posting with an alt. Post this with your real account if this isnt such a big issue.@the_OFFICIAL_jAPanese_teaBAG: Sure, go ahead and flag people you disagree with. Anita would be proud.

You're actually creating multiple account just to have arguments about this?

There's more to say as long as she doesn't deliver.
This is tax evasion, friend.

You seriously responded with that... "I have no argument so I'll accuse you of being a sock puppet!!111oneone"

Freedom of speech applies to the GOVERNMENT, not a privately owned website. WHY CAN'T YOU PEOPLE UNDERSTAND THAT!? Do they even teach Civics anymore!?
@ShaggE: You're right, dude. On the other side of the coin, since there are several other people saying "let's not talk about it, enough has been said", you are obviously all alts of someone who is preaching the Sarkeesian agenda. Just because your accounts have been open longer doesn't mean that they can't be alts.

I don't know anything about this woman. I don't care. I just think you are the OP and have created multiple accounts and a stupid thread. It makes me laugh.

Three new accounts in one thread saying the same thing, and you expect anybody to believe it's three different people?
... Okay, then...
People can't risk posting with their main accounts since they get banned if they disagree.
If that's the case, why are you so worried about risking your main? If you think this site is so against free speech, one would think you'd not be concerned about your account.
EDIT: Oh for fuck's sake. I see what this is. You got banned and can't take your lumps. That's really sad, man.

Not really, The only way I could see you being banned for discussing the subject is if you were attacking someone instead of talking reasonably. Maybe you threw a bitch-fit at somebody and that's why you were banned?

Don't get out of your bubble, some arguments might hurt your feelings.
Let's ban people instead.
It has nothing to do with the arguments being made (which I happen to agree with you on), it's about the fact that you are creating multiple alts for the purpose of stirring up controversy in the forums.
We're not agreeing with you. PROGRESS!@RecSpec said:

Do they even teach Civics anymore!?So that's somehow an excuse for a site to become a self moderating shithole with politically correct zombies doing nothing but agreeing with each other.

You don't have an argument.
Or a life as it turns out.
Red turtle....red turtle...red...herring? . Spoonman is behind the alts! I've cracked the case!This turtle is orange.
Inb4lock. I also believe this has nothing to do with Anitasarkwhowhatever and is really a political conspiracy geared towards Giant Bomb's evil dictatorship.I can't tell if you're real or just another one. Double digit post, better go with the full wipe.
