Maybe you can't relate. Since the start of GG, as a woman in a prominent position on a site that constantly being brought up as an enemy of the movement, and as a target of a fair amount of harassment because of that position, I've had a lot of fears in the back of my mind, and watching this episode has given some of those fears form. It doesn't matter whether anyone has actually been a physical victim of violence. Threats cause terror on their own. There's the chance that someone will actually be crazy enough to execute something in real life, and that's terrifying. I'm sure it's a big joke to you and lots of other people, but it's not to me, and I'm not even remotely close to a primary target. I can't even begin to imagine what others are going through.
