YaTEdiGo: Nice try to mix stupid conspiracies with real facts, but no, "non profit organization" LOL ... Sarkesian is far beyond more smart than the poor Quinn, that actually was really harrashed in a shameful way, but Anita? because from popularity and that crowfounding earns nothing... oh yes... sure.... try harder...
Vainamoinen: I respect your position on Quinn and Eron Gjoni, and if by stupid conspiracy theories you mean the Tales of Tales bit, I'll respect that as well. As you can see, this theory is still very well in dispute here!
The shameful harrassment of Anita Sarkeesian I have witnessed in person when it occurred. Conning money out of people would require conned people; and last time I checked, the TvW Kickstarter backers are overwhelmingly supportive of Sarkeesian's continued efforts. Of course, I've seen quite a few non backers painstakingly trying to explain why backers SHOULD feel conned, on youtube and at least one petition online, but... that's not how things work, gamergate.
There's no con without the conned.
Don't worry, the apex is certainly reached for Sarkeesian. Another monetary influx of the Intel nature will not occur. Tropes vs. Women is now running on its reserves, with no even remotely relevant donation money still coming in (evident from e.g. annual report - the Intel spike is, let's say, very dominant). You do think Sarkeesian's smart, so you know that she could and should right now wrap it all up and kill it all off by year's end. That would be the most profitable option. Planning two additional series for the immediate future and years to come? Not a smart business decision, we both know that. Also a personal nightmare as harrassment continues.
Yet an ethical decision if she believes what she preaches.
I meet her at E3 and she looked pretty happy, and doing a big promotion of herself, so don´t tell me stories about victimism and damsels in distress, because she is not, pretty ironic that she pretend to be one. She is contradictory, a flamer, a con artist, and she is deceiving both you SJW and GamerGaters at the same time.
And in my humble opinion and with the "honour" of meeting her twice, she is far to be a good person, I repeat, in my opinion.
Quinn have all my respect as a woman, she was harrashed for not real motives, if her game is bad, is bad, period, she can fuck Obama if she wants to promote her game or just to enjoy it, or both, and I will still defend her private life. Leigh Alexander is even worse than Sarkesian, she is a bully, and a harrasher by her own. Brianna Wu is other crow trying to get profit of pretending to be a damsel in distress (so ironic) because she made an AWFUL game.
More important people like the gay or transgender that was involved in Dolphin project and sucides for being harrashed and emotionally turn down, is almost non commented, instead, Gamergates and you SWJ get deceived by people as Sarkesian and her boyfriend, just flaming TWITTER with the wave of change oOooWOowowwww... I wonder if the brave Sarkesian would be able to pronounce herself about ISIS or the situation of women in the Middle East.
I bet she would never have the vagina to do so. I even think she would be even a defender or PATRIARCHAL religions like christianism and islam, and yet, acuse Pop Culture of being patriarchal. SJW logic... sic...
The reasons? With Pop Culture you got polemic and at the end of the day, mostly non agressive people pissed off, perfect for her bodeville, with religions maybe she could achieve real changes, as probably REAL THREATS.
