I think you're still ignoring the context of those statements. The first one is being made in the context of explaining why women aren't taken seriously in gaming. And I think that the context of what conversation is going on has to impact how you understand the statement - in this instance, it's not a baldfaced declarative statement, it's a statement about sexism, advancing the idea that sexism, rather than Felicia Day, is the reason that female gamers don't get taken seriously. But what you did is pull it out of that context to make an unrelated point.

And I think the same would be true, mutatis mutandis, of the statement about feminism - there are contexts (and phrasings) where that sentiment could make sense and be a reasonable point, and contexts where the sentiment would be a personal attack.
