No, it's not that.
I just want people to know that she's slowly taking over so that they can avoid her.
That's what I'm trying to do -- I'm trying to tell people to steer clear so that she won't gain any more attention.
Twitter Hires Sarkeesian

She can't play us if we avoid the platforms that she's been able to dominate recently.
We already can't comment on her videos, so all we can do now is tell others to avoid the pitfall.
I'm telling them to avoid twitter -- it's a platform they're already using.
Did you know that some guy got thrown in jail for an "offensive post"?
This is what we need to warn them about.

I really don't think Anita is the evil mastermind you guys are making her out to be. And even if she is, all she is doing is saying stupid things about video games. People agreeing with her will not cause the world to end. You're both taking this way too seriously.
Believe it or not, she isn't some girl who posting stupid things on YT. She went as far as to apply to UN agency. Here's interesting article about it. http://thegg.net/opinion-editorial/...-that-contains-sexual-violence-against-women/
And while there is no direct name-calling, her signature is all over it.
This just made me think that Sarkeesian is the leader of Cipher - "they played us like a damn fiddle!".
On topic: I think this is a dumb move from Twitter but VampireWicked is right. In giving her negative press she just gets more attention. It's like religion in that the radical, terrorist muslims make all the others look bad as Sarkeesian makes all feminists and feminist thinking look bad due to her more extreme take on it. Women should of course be equal to men but female video game characters do not need to be toned down visually as I've never met someone who is misogynistic or has unrealistic expectations due to video game characters.
But these people are already on twitter and yt; which means that at least a good amount of them most likely have already heard of her.
I'm just trying to warn them to steer clear of anita now that she's in a position of authority.
Ignorance of a "crime" in her eyes would be no excuse because she would still bring down the hammer on anyone she wants -- regardless if they were aware of her taking offense or not.

Precisely.
Once you bring the UN into this, matters become much more serious than they were previously.

yet now they actually dealing with "grave matter" of banning games instead :/
@VampireWicked I didn't mean you were calling her those things exactly. Rather, from the back and forth I was reading, it seemed you guys were making her into a bigger deal than she actually is.
Somewhat relevant.
Kinda shocked me how much money people give her for doing so little.

Yes lets throw money at third rated con artist so she can make up more made up crap. its not like people suffering from lack of food and water and wild animals getting exterminated anywhere.
