Even though I obviously don't hate him, I do think that his articles are of really bad quality and that he's taking advantage of some controversial issues for his own personal gain, which unfortunately really hurts the general quality and image of this site.

I'm really tired of seeing women being treated like little babies in need of support by some kind of neo-twitter feminism or some random guy on the web.

I'm able to fend off assholes by myself, thanks.

Also, Anita is a major factor in the effort to make women think they are nothing more than poor little victims of society.

She thinks she's empowering women but with her medieval views on sexuality and body language, I might as well put on a burka.

"Raising awareness" never, ever does anything, besides making someone rich. She thinks she's the authority and representative on feminist views but she never proved her abilities.

We're in a state where companies have realised that attacking sexism sells, so they are creating this superficial war on sexism that actually does nothing besides flashing a couple of angry posts on twitter. Females get convinced that they need protection from 3rd parties and sexism still reigns supreme.

And let me say, I at least, do not need protection by sexual portrayals in video games. First of all, I have no problem with it and secondly, if I had, I could as well not buy their products.

This rampant effort to censor everything that offends someone is truly a hit to the artistic integrity of video games.

Not to mention this results in males who had no sexist values get hostile with women since they think that all of us are censoring nuts like Sarkeesian. It only helps to further divide the two sexes.

The thing that got me going with Anita was mainly the fact that she's hiding behind some sexist attacks to ignore everyone with real arguments against her and gather even more money from people who are ignorant to what is really happening.

This is my problem with "white-knights".

Women can hold their own weight. We'll be fine.

I'd be more worried about you.

Ben got attacked with homophobic and bigoted comments by a small minority of losers and he's taking advantage of this, blowing it out of proportion to nullify the fair and civil arguments against him done by the majority.

It's a known tactic by "gaming journalists". Also, the same thing Hepler did when people were legitimately criticizing her.

She picked a handfull of sexist comments and used them as an excuse to label everyone who disagreed with her a sexist.

It's convenient he's doing this so I can write him up on my "DO NOT TRUST" list.

The only bigot in this situation here is Kuchera. Even though Erik had no reason to apologise, he did but Ben wished to hurt his career anyway, out of spite, thinking he has the moral highground.

Ben should apologise as well if he expects anyone to take him seriously ever again. Especially since he made his own articles condoning and supporting emulation (which makes him just a hypocrite).

What worries me the most is that, seemingly, a number of "gaming journalists" have ganged up to hurt the image of Erik Kain, one of the really few actual journalists in this industry with well researched and objective articles.
