RT @moryan: @scalzi If I may,I wrote something on Anita, Zoe, Brianna & the online harassment of women & how it's getting worse. http://t.c…

Words have meaning, and do not exist in a vaccuum #threatsareviolence

@freebsdgirl @firstconversion I wonder if they even know what’s wrong with that sentence?

In this order.

RT @sarawezzie: No woman should suffer threats of death, violence and rape from any man for daring to voice an opinion #stopgamergate

RT @ClaireRousseau: Men are afraid women that will disagree with them about video games. Women are afraid that men will kill them #StopGam…

@Foretoldimages yes I’ve seen it — saying women have to take responsibility is victim blaming. Instead change the culture expects it.

@Foretoldimages the differences in treatment of women and men is so vast that saying there are two “sides” is ludicrous.

@Foretoldimages @ChuckVStheMovie No. Just no. First we quit hating, harassing, threatening, mistreating. Then we get to talk about the rest.

@scalzi @SteelyDanSays oh I want a variant of that with capaldi “The Doctor says No”

@Argentsax @ChuckVStheMovie @AdamBaldwin aaaaaaand there goes the pretense of debate.

@Argentsax @ChuckVStheMovie @AdamBaldwin …Needs to back away from #gamergate, as the “brand” has been taken over by sick, violent people.

@Argentsax @ChuckVStheMovie @AdamBaldwin don’t need to in order to know that anyone who cares about game journalism… 1/2

@ChuckVStheMovie I’m not going to rehash(tag) the last week, but follow @Spacekatgal, @femfreq and @TheQuinnspiracy, and really listen.

@ChuckVStheMovie since apparently my thumbs aren't tired yet: @AdamBaldwin's promoting of #gamergate allies him with abusive hateful people

@ChuckVStheMovie @Foretoldimages which is why she did not need to be made eye candy - she was tough and kicked ass just as she was.

@Foretoldimages @ChuckVStheMovie 140 chars is not enough. She's a great character who almost never needed to be exposed. That's the line.

@Foretoldimages @ChuckVStheMovie women choosing how to present themselves is not the issue / a culture that teaches that women are objects.
