No I think we're a lot disagreeing with some of her videos but these people are just shitty no matter how much you agree with Anita Sarkeesian or not.

If you guys want to see Sarcunt of Akkad being humiliated, see HBomberguy's videos about him. They're magnificent.
Yes.
Sometimes they LIKE you and you're doomed to a lifetime of harassment. I have seen dozens upon dozens of cosplayers chased out of the scene by people like this who basically demand monthly nude photos from them or else they'll start a targeted campaign against them.
These people are scum.
Every time I read the lengths these people go to demonstrate their unmitigated hatred of women, all i can think about is:
Like...
Persona 4 spoilers:
You know when the reveal for the killer is made, and they do a long diatribe of why he was killing all those women, and his reason is literally just "I hate women, they're all bitches and whores and should either worship my dick or die"? There are people, a LOT of people, who actually believe that.

Yes.
Because fuck being respectful to the people who make a living dehumanizing you showing up on person to continue the charade.
We actually need more public blasting like this. Make these shitlords feel unwelcome.
Congrats on managing to slip in some "both sides" bullshit

??? FF puts out a video a week and is still the subject of regular discussion.
Yeah, Anita is a real scam artist by speaking about structural inequality and discrimination. She's definitely comparable to guys who spend all day harassing her.
Everything is always equal, of course.
And he has the nerve to play the victim too! What happened to all the snowflakes being triggered easily?
She calls him a garbage human being, and now it's World War III.
Crazy how things like this work.
Are you insinuating that Anita can't stand up for herself without some ulterior motive?
How can she not be relevant? Is this a joke post or something? The incident clearly makes her more relevant than ever.
For the record, anyone who says "lol Sargon was just sitting and looking at her, that's not harassment" needs to do some research on what harassment is.
Going out of your way to sit in the front row of a talk for someone whom you have called a number of horrible slurs in the past and staring at her with a knowing smirk is 110% harassment. That's an intimidation tactic. He's trying to make her afraid to speak in public. Anyone who thinks otherwise is fooling themselves.

Oh, I get that.
I just wish people would literally shout that question to them in public.

Sargon has this weird thing where he likes to fancy himself as this high-brow intellectual while at the same time acting like a petulant /pol/ shithead. Unfortunately for him those two personas are mutually exclusive.

Also recommended, Shaun and Jen's videos. They have at least one on Sargon, and a few featuring him.

I mean, shit, that's literally why Elliot Rodger committed his attack in Santa Barbara (and don't read Sargon's response to the attack, it'll make any sane person livid).
Frankly, he and his goons should get restraining orders. They're petty as fuck.

Imagine having to put up with those ignorant, hateful manbabies. Just reading about them makes me squirm. Fucking gross ass people.

I didn't realize she goes around doing speeches or whatever. I would love to go to something of hers live. I can't find anything on her site though.
So it's OK for people to make a living and deliver abuse to people as long as the targets are not "relevant" anymore.

Sargon was on the Joe Rogan Experience a couple days ago regarding this vidcon episode. It was actually pretty disgusting, there were several instances where he basically hijacked the podcast to hurl nasty personal attacks at Anita. Rogan kept trying to reign him in and change the subject, guy was obviously not interested in talking about anything else though.
These dudes are just gross.

Any one of these cowards would straight-up crumble if subjected to 1/1000th of the abuse directed at Anita. There's a reason they have to show up in a support group to pick on a girl. So kudos to Anita for showing extraordinary courage and standing strong. She saw through their false bravado and exposed them for their cowardice.

The man's the very definition of a know-nothing know-it-all. He tries to come off as intelligent, but anyone with any understanding of the topic he's talking about knows he's full of shit.

I'm watching some now, not really that great. Just seems like an equally untalented, pedantic Sargon from the other side. Chapo Trap House nailed him much more succinctly, IMO.

Please go away Carl of Swindon.
He already is. He's just smart enough to keep up the veneer of plausible deniability, he knows exactly who his audience is.
I think we're due to having these guys locked up in a room with a gun to their head and a team of expert psychologists breaking them down mentally and have them find out, I mean really find out why and how they can be like they are (I mean more than just "because they're pathetic fucks").

All these assholes do is make her credible and relevant.
They prove her point.
The fact that she annoys them by pointing out their insecurities is just icing on the cake.
They don't debate her. They perform circus stunts to try to make her uncomfortable, but as usual, it just exposes their ignorance and reinforces her message and criticisms of their wholly inappropriate agenda.

These are people that insulted and harassed her for years, who made sure to take up the first 3 rows of the panel audience, with many recording her for use on their youtube channels to rake in more money and views from their hateful watchers. I'm not about to say "both sides are like children on a playground" when one is purposefully trying to create an intimidating atmosphere and the other is calling them out and acknowledging them for what they are.
Thunderfoot made hundreds of videos about Anita over the years.
Like... it's actually beyond weird. Total obsession. I'm preeeeeeeeetty sure that he has (had) a huge unacknowledged crush on the poor woman.
I've heard he's calmed down a bit recently and had a bit of a falling out with the other "rational skeptics". But man...
Well there are some people who
think he was right, despite the game saying he was a garbage human being who was just trying to justify his shitty actions with philosophical ramblings, and he himself saying he just did all that stuff because he could. Actually, Persona 4's villain is an apt metaphor for these kinds of people.

Hello, my name is Yves Guillemot, Vivendi S.A.'s Employee of the Month!
More often than not the people being harassed and oppressed are expected to just take it and to never stand up for themselves in anyway that could make the dudes oppressing them even remotely uncomfortable. Otherwise, they're just as bad. /s
