I accept what you're saying. However, I really wish that more often when there is conversations about her videos people would actually point out mistakes and correct them, rather than go of spewing vitriol and calling her a lying skank. Because I'm not really invested; all I know is that she presents her arguments without a lot of drama, for you to agree or disagree with, but the furor around her has exploded into disgusting name-calling.
I do take what she says about games with a grain of salt, but I have to say, seeing some of the footage she's posted it's made me not want a whole lot of games to ever enter my house.

That, I agree with. It probably doesn't help that she never permits any ground/opportunity for actual, level headed discussion, also hiding behind the "I can't because everyone will hate on me again" problem.

I would really like to see her in a discussion with someone who can counter her points in a civilised manner (like this person: http://dpadblog.com/2014/06/17/critique-of-sarkeesians-women-as-background-decoration-video/).

Hmm. That post is a lot more nuanced and civil, thank you for linking it.
tbh I don't agree with a lot of his points, too, because I think he's misunderstanding some basic things about how to address specific studies, but I have to leave my computer now for the next day, so I don't expect I'll have the opportunity to discuss this with you again (people don't usually check back to posts)
either way, thanks for the link!

That's alright!

I have actually not found a post where I agree with absolutely every point the writer makes, but that's what discussion is for - it's perfectly alright to not have the same opinion, as long as a discussion is conducted in a civil manner and is possible in the first place.
