How about this?

Meh.

If anything it looks like you should be focusing most of your attention on Mr. Dr. Johnson (he has a pH.D. in sociology) since his work seems to be the inspiration and created the paradigm Anita works within.

Who's Dr. Johnson?

That is a bit of a credibility annhilating reply. I would make a quiet retreat UP.

I got confused and thought Mojo was talking about somebody else.

Anita's a difference feminist, and most of her bullshit could be said to have a source at Gilligan.

Who the hell is Johnson?

Who the hell is Johnson?

A name explicitly mentioned twice by Anita in the image UP provided in addition to being quite visible in the photo of her blurb about how important and influential his book is to her. The two seconds it takes to Google his name or book title reveals he has a pH.D. in sociology.

Way I see it, there's three pillars of Gamergate. 

Ethics in Gaming Journalism
Zoey Quinn
Anita Sarkeesian.

Two of those pillars exist to hold up the whole thing while the third just dangles there all atrophied and unused.

Ironbite-guess which one it is.

Fair enough, only tangentially related to Gamergate in that people stupidly toss that stereotype at its members.

You know what my favorite part of the idiocy behind Sarkeesian and GamerGate: No one is telling anyone to like Sarkeesian. I don't. I can't stand her, in fact. I don't like her presentation and I feel like the results of her research are biased and rely on a number of half-truths. While I agree with the discussion she is allegedly trying to inspire, I think she's doing a terrible job of it.

I actually find the reactions to her videos more interesting than the videos themselves. As said by many before me, the comments on any statement about feminism prove the need for feminism more than the statement itself.
