Such a caring friend who tries to think for her.

EDIT: What is your opinion on choice and equity feminism; AGGs of GOG?

Na, they won't bite. You need something more provocative to jab them out of their little hidy-holes.

Seems ISIS is blocking gators : https://www.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/comments/3g3igq/censorshipisis_just_updated_their_list_to_include/
The crackhead autoblocker woman seems to sharing the list with her friends over at ISIS. Hey I guess ISIS counts as a minority to the $JWs as well.

I'd figured that was radical right-ist enough. Guess some people are either too self controlled (doubtful) or too moderate (more doubtful).

Small indie dedicated to bringing women / girls into gaming. So where is the moneybags from the likes of Sarkeesian and Wu? What more than a dedicated studio +90% of the world's games being completely non sexist do they want?

Maybe another example of SJW exuberance and eating one's own, but there seems to be quite the backlash over the movie Stonewall.
The movie is about New York riots involving the LGBT community. A trailer was released and based on just that and the cast list (because the main actors are white), they are turning on the director (who is gay) claiming he's under-representing minorities in his film.

All this with no one actually seeing said film, just one trailer and a cast list. Proof enough that Hollywood is racist and genderist.

What do you think happens when the next person wants to make a film about LGBT rights? Do they think twice?
What happened to getting all the facts before one throws the kitchen sink at the director?

Another way to see the left eat their own would be to ask a group of social crusader types to explain all the rampant homophobia within the black community. Sit back and watch the blood vessels pop. For every 'that Christian preacher is just a closet fag' argument the left makes, there's just as many floating turds to count in their own swimming pool.

They seem to think every problem in the world involves the US because for most normal humans outside the US and Europe, being offended about the race of actors in a movie is UNHEARD OF.

I saw a local film centered around a gay police officer but the actor was straight. No one gave two shits.

Truth is, as much as American and Western fringe groups would have not believe, being offended over trivial stuff like this is the realm of adult children too indoctrinated about their ideology.

Based on the E3 hubbub Sarkeesian & co may also want the illegalization of "violent" games (except when they profit from it)

And here the thing...
In truth, I strongly support social justice.
I am glad the Supreme Court wasn't too stubborn and backwards that they saw that too many rights were being denied without legalizing marriage between any two people.
I believe prison sentences are often way too long and costly for victimless crimes like soft drugs.
I believe too many minorities are serving time in US jails because their numbers are just way too unproportional.
I believe there are things that do need some tweaking and fixing in society.

But, my God, what goes for social justice these days is just nuts. It's like they all have "bigger dick" contests over which of them are "better" social activists. They argue over the most trivial of things and over-react before all the facts are even straight. (Don't get me wrong, I believe sometimes some in this thread and elsewhere do the same with regards to Gamergate issues as well at times.)

I think the difference for me and social justice is that social justice has always been about "equality" or the greater good.
If something is wrong, you try to fix it for all, not just fix it for your specific so-called minority group. But too many of these people don't seem to be able to see past their own little "privileged" sub-group. And too many of them think they should be able to swing the scales as far as possible in order to make up for whatever disadvantage they perceive they suffered them. Like they are owed more or something...

I enjoy watching the SJdubs turn on each other like rabid hyenas. It's the irony of them shining more light on their crusade and it comes under everyday scrutiny.

I agree, when the issue is something like this no one is really helped IMHO.

That's pretty funny. And stranger, I've seen AC wars at a few of my jobs in the past. But its never a sexist thing, its more a position and power thing. Last place I worked, they had one thermostat that controlled both a few of the offices and the break room. Obviously, the office people got to set the temperature and leave the break room freezing.

But once again, good example. Yup, clearly "sexist" with no thought about what other factors might be involved...

Unfortunately they'd rather spend time criticizing violent games than promoting good nonviolent ones. Shows enough of them I need to know..........

This is exactly the kind of shit that pisses me off, "Think of the poor oppresed office ladies who can't wear their breezy summer clothes because the temperature in the office is pleasantly mild".

Why don't they switch jobs with a priviliged male and pull off 8+ hours of heavy manual labor under the sweltering heat.
