Strategic Butt Coverings - Tropes vs Women in Video Games

Don't forget the ignore list at post #309.
Blocks out most of the KiA/gator brigading that has been outraged about the thread.

Is makeup sexist? Anita Sarkeesian has makeup on her, and even earrings, but does that make her sexist?(some of her gator/KiA "critics" think so) What is your(as a bitcoiner part of this specific forum) view on this?

Take this course from Laci Green "WAIT, IS MAKEUP SEXIST?"
and tell us your view

If you want to post on-topic content you can start with replying to what you think about:
ref http://feministfrequency.com/2013/03/07/damsel-in-distress-part-1/

Also don't forget the Public filter list / ignore list at #309

For anybody who wants to participate in the discussion follow the filter list at  #309
Nobody has stated yet in that list they want to participate on-topic posts to this thread yet.

Is replying on-topic so hard? What is it that Anita Sarkeesian has said that made you so angry? Quotes please.

Just continue your discussion about "Feminism in general" in PM. Your inability/unwillingness to participate in this specific thread is showing, because you adress "feminism in general", and there is no "feminism in general", there are many different individuals and this thread is about Feminist Frequency/Anita Sarkeesian which you could have adressed but you choose to go off-topic because "feminists in general"(whatever the heck that means) have angered you.

not received any PMs from alani123 + alani123 has not claimed trying to contact me.
This kind of filter inspired by ggautoblocker is to filter out any off-topic spam, stop spamming this thread with nonsense, not appreciated.
This KiA/gator tirade must stop, or if bitcointalk.org really supports these things show it to me, I'm tired of the human age of stupidity kind of thing going on in this thread. If you don't have anything on-topic to say don't say it.

GriffinHeart and alani123. This is not KiA or your gator echo chamber and if you
think so you obviously do not want to get removed from my public ignore list filter so
make up your minds about how you want your continued stay here to be like.
I hope you're not allergic to PMs because if you want to post on-topic content you might have
to fight that allergy.

GriffinHeart put on public ignore list filter:
post #316 insults are not arguments, #258 "FF con artist" trope,
#260 claiming 100% of all arguments made in Tropes vs Women are false is like
claiming Peach in Mario is not a damsel in distress while not providing any context
or argumentation whatsoever to back that post.
Stop overgeneralizing if you want to contribute on-topic content
Read cryptofeminism #313 on how to get removed from the filter.

alani123 put on public ignore list filter:
post #261 how alani123 remarks about friends derailing the topic
#274 'please stop posting on-topic in this thread' kind of thinking.
#272 'lol that off-topic youtube video that jimbobway posted was funny'(ignoring
the public ignore list and encouraging off-topic posts makes you extra eligible
to be included in the public ignore list, this is somehow how Good Game autoblocker works)
#317 'alani123 doesn't approve on-topic content'. Spams images from some dictionary,
attempts to "politely insult".
Read cryptofeminism #313 on how to get removed from the filter.

Anybody who wants to reply on-topic(if you know how to use arguments and not just pure statements parroted from some KiA/gator "source" then you know what that is) use the public ignore list at
#309

Can you enjoy video games while being conscious of tropes regarding women within those
games? All depends if you take yourself seriously,
that's the only thing that's required to post on-topic so please try.

What are you referring to? If you could at least provide some reference or quotation at all it might actually help.

Also you didn't reply to
Do you find that offensive to you, like you are personally offended by Feminist Frequency "being so mean" as to say that you can still enjoy something, but still be critical of it? Oh, the dread! Please answer honestly what you think.

http://onlineabuseprevention.org/ by Randi Harper (freebsdgirl) as it's undeniable that Anita Sarkeesian and her project Feminist Frequency have been extensively harassed.

This is not /r/KiA. I've added you to the public ignore list at #309 as it seems you can't stop victim blaming, thus you are too much off-topic, you can't provide anything substantial, you can't even type any criticism at all but only resort to personal attack as "argument". Ad Hominem paranoia, stop it if you can.
If you want to participate in the discussion you can PM me to get yourself removed from it as I stated in post #309 when you feel yourself eager again to jump in to the discussion at hand.

Everybody else: use the public ignore list, it's more like a filtering system for this specific thread rather than "censoring their freeze peach". They can perfectly well create threads that are totally KiA/gator friendly and it was a success. Congratulate yourselves for that, of knowing how to open other threads.

When you want to participate again in the discussion you know what to do per my instructions, freebsdgirl is my inspiration for this and she is awesome.

Edit: This tweet shows she is interested in Bitcoin https://twitter.com/randileeharper/status/616731590664663040
She states she has a Coinbase account in that above tweet. I assume so far it is https://www.coinbase.com/freebsdgirl
Also her twitter account https://twitter.com/randileeharper references https://keybase.io/freebsdgirl
and https://keybase.io/freebsdgirl references https://coinbase.com/freebsdgirl
Her https://keybase.io/freebsdgirl also contains her public key so by that I assume she already has some basic knowledge of technologies that are part of Bitcoin. Yes! Bitcoin is not hard to understand for beginners who are already familiar with ie. OpenPGP, as there are parts of that technology in Bitcoin!

Public filter list / ignore list:
* alani123 #272 encourages off-topic echo chamber, #321 upset that the thread exists and wishes the thread to stop existing. #330 KiA/gator image spam tirade.
* Bitware. Personal attack at #292
* jimbobway. Reported "jimbobway spams Boo,Banana,Phallus,Penor,Penis"(5 different posts with 1 of those words in each post) as early as #288
* GriffinHeart #316 "insults as argument"
* hayek #322 going off-topic about feminism in general, nothing on-topic regarding Anita Sarkeesian, nor Feminist Frequency.
* TCM. Victim blaming tirade, starting with #303, being overly paranoid. This is not /r/KiA. #311 victim blaming tirade.

(To save bitcointalk.org admins/mods the bother to manually having to delete anything else other than threats I'm making a public ignore list specifically for this thread which I will recommend for any sane Bitcoiner that doesn't want to be a part of the KiA/gator echo chamber tirade)

I'm advocating any serious Bitcoiner to use the above public ignore list. Hit the "ignore" button for the users in the list. PM me to get removed from the list. Personal attacks aren't discussion. Just use your common sense, if available. Otherwise get your common sense from a fellow human being either for free or at a discount.

This is a subreddit that must be pretty cool, I think it's a parody of overreacting kids/kittens: https://www.reddit.com/r/KittensInAction/
She might not be the first feminist in Bitcoin since https://www.reddit.com/user/andreasma stated that he'll not attend Bitcoin conferences that don't have any reasonable anti-harassment policies that are also not just words but also real actions in case women get abuse. Maybe neither of these people are feminists but still they advocate against harassment actively and that is worthy of a mention.

I haven't seen one single reference of Anita Sarkeesian's work(probably something to do with phobia of getting your arguments "defeated" once you even start reading one sentence of what she actually says in her video transcripts) I'm going to quote one for you, and you can reply on-topic for a change:

source: https://feministfrequency.com/2013/03/07/damsel-in-distress-part-1/

TCM tries to normalize stalking behavior(outrage culture, being angry about nothing). Jimbobway, please remove your spam or I'll probably give the report button a try. Normalizing harassment against women in Bitcoin communities is never a good start.

I didn't know Brianna Wu was a mod over at GamerGhazi. https://twitter.com/spacekatgal/status/564204048216502272
She is one of those who received an extreme amount of threats similar to what Anita Sarkeesian has received.

And your opinion that she is a con artist stems from what? The TCM case where Feminist's Frequency Anita Sarkeesian doesn't like playing shooters got totally taken out of context?

This KiA/gator tirade is just making fools of you...I actually noticed somebody got their feelz so dominated that they opened a thread on KiA. Of course KiA ignored it because actually it's about ethics in STFU, so they gave you the finger.
Also don't make this seem like an issue of freeze peach. There's a difference between hosting just well argumented speech and hosting of hate speech, spam speech. Don't get shit confused, and what part bitcointalk.org plays in this is currently unknown to me, but I guess I might find out, as having a post removed once might mean having it removed again, maybe because of "cryptoethics".

"Assassin's Creed Syndicate Review" new video by Feminist Frequency.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3OzKTAYkyTE
Transcript available at http://feministfrequency.com/2015/10/22/assassins-creed-syndicate-review/

If you got reported it's because of personal attacks. Insults and spam seems to be your main strategy in answering. At least you try(maybe), but it looks more like you're boiling.

If you realize your post is spam, then remove it so I won't have to report it.

It is you with your self-assigned Cryptoprivilege that you've decided that it is your holy right to post off-topic ramblings on this thread that is not related to the topic at hand(not even to Bitcoin). So if anybody poisoned anything it was your unwillingness from the beginning to post anything but slander and insults hurled at Anita Sarkeesian, preventing any sort of discussion. Be aware that you are poisoning this discussion in a way that it prevents any civil discussion about the topic at hand. If you stop spamming this thread then a discussion can commence more easily. You so far seem preoccupied with censoring this discussion, since you've stated this yourselves:

That's just your typical victim blaming TCM, very typical of you, not of bitcointalk.org. Anybody else continuing on the victim blaming part, consider your posts reported as your "Cryptoprivilege" is becoming increasingly annoying. You are not contributing in any way, but more advocating in having any talk about Feminism on bitcointalk.org censored. Go open your own anti-feminism threads, there are tons of them here.(no rather don't, I don't think bitcointalk.org wants to host hatespeech)

I think that the closest we could come to some sort of "common ground" in jimbobway's own expression, it's getting girlsmakegames accept Bitcoin donations. Maybe then Feminist Frequency could consider accepting Bitcoin. The argument you seem to be advocating is bitcointalk.org kicking away any discussion at all about Feminism or Feminist Frequency which you so passionately hate.

Look!: Their "The Hole Story" kickstarter had an initial funding goal of 10000$ which included linux support from the very beginning, how awesome is that!?!?!?!?
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2020158234/girls-make-games-grand-prize-winner/description

http://girlsmakegames.how/ have partnered with Intel, Double Fine Productions and the Computer History Museum+more.

You should know by now that you are posting in the Feminist Frequency thread. Do you have any criticism at all regarding Feminist Frequency apart from your obsession about the video where she dismisses shooters where she does not want to shoot the head off of people because she thinks it is gross?

Thanks for the link.

Bitcoin is a protocol and a community. 1. Bitcoin the community 2. Bitcoin the protocol. The protocol can't be sexist/homophobic/transphobic and whatnot, but the community can, and specifically the Bitcoin community that prefers posting on bitcointalk.org can be too. Though it can remove posts which it may find overly Feminist like one of my posts that got deleted in the beginning where I mention that Feminism is the radical belief that women are people too. Please don't get offended now that I said it. I posted that Feminism is the radical belief that women are people too and that got removed. You have every right to as it's your forum, and to that, I also get more enlightened to the target audience. Nothing wrong with you having your target audience. Go ahead.

Check out the "Alternate Internet Fuckwad Theory". You won't be disappointed.

http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/greater-internet-fuckwad-theory
By the way, I've never seen the greater internet fuckwad theory expressed in such a good way. It's even better than the traditional one.

Just keep the distinction between what a charity is and what a non-profit is. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charitable_organization. A charity is a type of a non-profit organization
girlsmakegames.com is neither a charity nor a non-profit . Feminist Frequency though is a charity(a type of non-profit)
Maybe that is the charity part? Giving all her videos out for free, not just to the kickstarter backers. She gives it to you who haven't paid anything to it and by the looks of it post nonsense in this thread trying to throw shit at her. I'd suggest that you take what Feminist Frequency gives. Videos to criticize since that's what you want to do. Though you fail since you are drained down by your continous Ad-Hominem and spamming attacks on the thread. Attacking the thread won't take it down. Quoting what she says in a video may contribute on-topic content to this thread, so that's encouraged.

This won't hurt for background reading: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_and_video_games

My hope is that bitcointalk.org users can restrain themselves from making off-topic posts in threads where their feelings are "high" and maybe make their own threads for whatever they like to call what they are doing.

alani123 and bitcreditscc, you advocate to move the thread, take it with the admins/mods. Posting off-topic about it in this thread is not helping your cause and is just plain off-topic. People understand you want to move the thread. As to why maybe it is because you have too many feelings on the subject matter so you can't get yourself to reply. Trembling fingers whenever you think about posting anything regarding Anita Sarkeesian? Maybe switch thread?

Maybe it's attitudes like this that make Bitcoin a public fool and makes http://girlsmakegames.how/donate.html see PayPal as their holy god? Where's the grassroots spirit? Leave the feelings out please.

New DLC episode out! Published on Sep 14, 2015
https://boingboing.net/2015/09/16/feminist-frequency-now-has-dlc.html
In that article you can watch both her videos. Her newest one about DLCs along with the older one.

Here's a direct link to her Women as Reward - Special DLC Mini-Episode.

charity or non-profit?
Doesn't hurt to visit http://feministfrequency.com/ , does it?
One does not exclude the other in general terms, because charities are usually non-profit but non-profits don't need to be charities.

Yes, women actually play games and when they critique Anita Sarkeesian or praise her it's not a thing about dismissing her because of one perceived shortcoming(oh somebody got obsessed about Anita Sarkeesian saying in the past she is not a fan of video games, and then go 100% blindfold about everything she says) then putting on a blindfold and leaving the topic.

This thread I henceforth link to suggest if you want to do proper criticism, do it bit by bit. Don't overgeneralize and then leave the topic and consider having 'won the argument'. Leaving an argument is not the same as arguing.


Now see what https://www.reddit.com/r/GirlGamers/comments/3kx46a/women_as_reward_special_dlc_miniepisode/ have to say about Anita Sarkeesian's latest episode. I don't know if anybody from that space is even half curious about Bitcoin, and I don't hope it's about an unwillingness to participate in a discussion about the future of gaming.
