Better yet just ignore it and move on, but if you’ve got to vent about it do so privately.

I promise you, some trans woman on here is not going to cause irreversible damage to your pet issue in the time it takes you to calm down.

I spent too much of my life and too many wrinkles on trivial shit

The incident in San Francisco should have resulted in these things pulled off the streets. I'm dreading these things coming to the east coast.

Why does this have to get fucking cyclical, can’t we just fucking think people’s posts are stupid without saying it to their faces

(They/them for general sentiment not referring to Ana, I’m not aware of what she said today)

It’s just so out of proportion and much is indistinguishable from the normal patterns of transfem disposability.

I am also aware that the same could be said of the people in her comments being incredibly fucking weird about the modder.

It’s just fucked

So in the vein of trying to treat other women how I would like to be treated I think she deserves grace for lashing out after several hours and credit for apologizing and deleting the post

Well I’m not here to scream at you.

If I was in a similar situation I just know I’m not going to say the kindest things to people after hours of being harassed and we all know that trans women are held to impossible standards especially when under duress.

Faux-progressive sex negative trend, Jesus can a girl include all the words the first time

You are good people so I don’t want my vent to hit you with strays though

I’m willing to agree that there is a faux-progressive sex-negative but I don’t agree that Molloy was coming from that angle.

At the end of the day it fucking sucks that she got harassed to hell and back and I don’t think it was in any way justified.

It feels like pointing at actual sex-negative feminist theories but then pointing back at the wrong person as the cultural origin or kickoff point in a way that aligns with reactionary talking points.

Along with current social trends towards anti-feminism it just leaves a bad taste in my tongue

Ugh I don’t like that last sentence because it doesn’t feel quite right to say it like that either.

within the industry and outside at the time.

I also think it puts too much emphasis on her contributions considering that most pop feminism was very sex positive.

So it just feels like this is inventing a history to retroactively vindicate gamergate or other reactionary tendencies in games

I don’t necessarily agree with this. I’m willing to say a lot of the feminist-frequency stuff was very 101 but that’s kinda where the games space was at at least as far as mainstream coverage went.

It also can’t be ignored in the context of booth babes, and horrible sexual harassment of women

I’m so fucking done with this shit, and like the people involved are old enough to know the fuck better. Like a lot of these people are in their 30s freaking out about someone calling a mod weird. Like old enough to have watched gamergate happen and understood it.

I’m just so done with this shit, like god fucking damn it take your misplaced rage and put it towards something that matters not attempting to morally or intellectually justify harassing the fuck out of a trans woman
