Anita fully admits that she doesn't like video games
Anita Sarkeesian said that 3 years ago. It looks like you assume that what somebody(anybody!) said 3 years ago holds true for all eternity in the future. If I talked about 3 years ago how much I hate eating biscuit chocolate and how horrible the taste is, but the last 6 months I talk about that the taste isn't that bad after all, that I gotten used to it and that it is actually one of my favourites as of late, would you just continue ranting on that tjohej hated biscuit chocolate 3 years ago? Or say I hated Bitcoin 3 years ago, but the last 6 months I love it.(ie. a cryptography enthusiast explained to me in detail how it works over 4 hours of Q&A and everything I had doubts for got answered at that time so I became passionate about it ever since)


Hmmm... you just made a huge assumption about me though, but I won't take that personally. ;P I'm actually a pretty open minded individual and realize people change their minds, however I don't think it's logical for a person to dislike something for 20+ years then do a complete 180 with little evidence of such.  Why would I assume she likes them now?  What games does she like or advocate for?  Heck, she couldn't be bothered to play the games she reviewed for herself. Don't you find the way she presents herself suspicious in the least? Just look at the amount of scamming that goes on in this forum and you can see what people will do for even small amounts of money.  Scammers are involved in all sorts of charities, (have had numerous ones for breast cancer harassing me on the phone) in fact they flock to stuff like this.  It's important to properly vet any charity before you donate to them, especially ones that are obviously preying on your emotions.

As for the chocolate biscuit, if you don't like them you should probably stay away.  They're not very good for you anyways.  Cheesy
