You are going to answer every single point that I have made in this thread with a truthful response that is not misleading in any way

Cool it down. Have you overlooked the option to try to respect me?

Do you know that those who harassed Anita Sarkeesian had a hostile attitude? Even going as far as distributing her personal address information.
That's not a good or a nice way to get more people interested in Bitcoin, rather it looks like a good way to shoo away people from Bitcoin.
Keep it civil, folks. Cool

Regardless of your opinions on modern feminism/sexism/bigotry, you cannot deny that she has lied extensively and continues to do so.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6a57MjmpoI

She's a con artist. I'm sure she'll be happy to take your bitcoins.

The video you posted shows Anita Sarkeesian saying she is not a fan of video games, does that somehow extend to all her future views that she'll have in her life? If you hold an opinion today, is that the same one you will hold in 2 years?

Anyway, the youtube video you posted, there she says the following:
clip1
Anita Sarkeesian "I've been playing video games since I was about 5 years old"

clip2 from Santa Monica College, California, 2010
Anita Sarkeesian says Im going to show you a remix that I just finished this weekend and no one else has seen [pause] One person has seen it Its a soundtrack of one song except Im doing video games. So its not exactly a fandom, Im not a fan of video games. I actually had to learn a lot about video games in the process of making this

Bitcoins101, is anything conflicting in the above statements?
You did not explain why she is a "con artist". Also a con artist is somebody who gains your trust and whom you give money to while you trust that you will get the money back(or even get more money back than you originally gave to the con/confidence artist)

Somebody giving money in a kickstarter.com doesn't expect the money to be given back to them. They expect the money to be invested in the project they gave the money to. So this "con artist"...you want to develop that any further?

Since you are so concerned to look for Anita Sarkeesian's past why not take a look at http://vimeo.com/13216801
"Anita Sarkeesian Visits Professor Melanie Klein's class_Part 1" and take it from the beginning until Part 3?

I would rather go to something more modern and serious though like her "Tropes vs Women in Video Games", specifically "Damsel in Distress: Part 1 - Tropes vs Women in Video Games"
That video lasts 23 minutes and 34 seconds. Can't you rain critisicm on that specific video and explain to me where she lacks, then provide citations so it doesn't end up in just ramblings on how terrible she is. I would rather you say why and provide references and sources. Then say she said this and that at that minute and second.

Real example for the Part 1 video: 0:39-0:52 "This series will include critical analysis of many beloved games and characters, but remember that it is both possible (and even necessary) to simultaneously enjoy media while also being critical of its more problematic or pernicious aspects."

This is an example of a comment to the above quote: "She says that we should enjoy games but also be aware of some problems like that women may be portrayed in a negative way"

Your turn? If you wanna link to another video do it, but also provide the minutes and seconds, what she said and then what your comment is on it.
