Can I ask, OP, do you believe that her being threatened with DEATH and DOXXED, justified in any way? Have you seen the hate spread her way?
Or are you a gamergate type?
I think you should be the one doing the research, OP and stop drinking the proverbial coolaid.

No I don't think she "deserves" death threats etc. I never said she does. Maybe you should try to read what's actually being said instead of trying make up things as it suits you.

So does she deserve it? Absolutely not, because that type of behaviour is vile no matter who it's directed at.
But I also don't think anyone with her type of personality and presence on the internet should be particularly surprised at the vitriol spewn her way. Is it great that these things happened to her? No. Was it to be expected? Sadly, yes. Does it excuse the bullshit she pulled and give her some sort of "get out of everything without honest criticism" card? No it doesn't.

Good answer.

I don't get the AYRT's logic "Here are her flaws" "Let me point out that she has been victimised"

Like... yeah, that's terrible, I think we all agree it's terrible, but it's sort of unrelated to her flaws... unless the relationship that's being suggested is that her flaws should be ignored because of her victim status? In which case I want to know how long Anita has been anoning here on F!S.

Chemtrails are the real reason for conspiracy theories: they do things to impressionable peoples' brains. There's proof out there too, just go search.

Well you apparently know all about that.

I AM a gamergate type, and I don't think her being threatened or doxxed is justified. It's not justified for anyone. Why whould you assume anyone thinks that?

Seriously "I find her disingenuous and fake" "Do think think she deserves death threats?" Like... there's no logical link between those two things. There's no reason to bring it up. We're talking about her flaws, not her victim status.

You do know that many of those "threats" have been either disproven or traced to her own camp, right? I can't think of any that were actual threats, really.

man you sound like you come from a pro-gamer gate echo chamber, dude.

Some of them were, sure. But no, this is the internet we're talking about, you get death and rape threats for breakfast. A controversial figure like Anita? You gotta know she wouldn't need to fake them.

Now did she capitalise on them? She sure did. As is her right, I suppose.

Do those threats negate any of the legitimate criticisms of her? I promise you they do not. She's awful, just awful. But she did absolutely catch death and rape threats, that's just a fact.

You might be able to argue that they were not actionable threats. The internet is full of "tough guys", but I don't think that negates the unacceptability of the death threats.
