    Well, maybe Cosby was smart enough to keep his threats between him and the FBI so the asshole copycats wouldn't make it impossible to investigate.

    She also tends to play the damsel - "These people said sexist things about me - give me money!"

    Engaging in the same old labeling lies, are you? 99% of the people who disagree with you didn't say that? NO PROBLEM! Just lie and pretend they did!

    You are well on your way, son. Well on your way.

    What are you talking about? It has long been established that these women have been receiving rape and death threats. Surely you know that.

    Tell me truthfully. Were any of these college aged fuckwits even ALIVE in 1986 to be offended by the patriachy and demsel in distress troupe s in Super Mario Brothers?

    I didn't think so.

    Not surprisingly not many people want to rape Cosbey as he is not that good looking and is now bordering on his 80's. Oh, and you are wrongfully presupposing guilt due to hersy. I suppose that is to be expected though when one so totally flushes their brain down the toilet to believe tha video games cause rape and that disagreeing with such rubbish is the same as rape.

    Ah, but we have been told that the rape threats have nothing to do with any actual intention to rape anyone, nor with the fact that the opponent is a woman, much less whether she's attractive. That why they're not sexist, remember?

    And whose guilt am I assuming? Certainly not Cosby's.

    Right. Since Super Mario Bros disappeared without a trace in 1987, and was never played nor copied nor quoted afterwards, that is an excellent point. Therefore, only people at least 35 years of age could remember this game, and sadly, only very few humans live that long.

    Wow. That double talk is impressive but it unfortunately relies upon tired, old, worn out troupes so I have to give it only one star. Try harder next time.

    No, you've been told it can't be assumed either way.

    This is about where we stop discussing and start trading bullshit, isn't it? You've decided that none of this criticism is warranted, or at the very least is overblown, and poor Packard spends the next fifty posts trying to get more out of you. I saw this trait in use by Dicky, and I've seen him do it hundreds of times. I would recommend @Packard and @mburtonk to stop trying at this point.

    Remind me why these moral crusaders aren't going after TV and movies? I've seen about a billion times more "rape", violence towards women, and women as sex objections in an average week of television than I have in 30 years of gaming.

    Impressive statistic there. But how do you have time to game (much less work, post on WF, eat, sleep, get laid) if you're watching that much television?

    So, I get the impression we're all pretty much on the same page other than Archie, Captain Anime, Turdin and Dicky? I can live with that. Diacanu clearly has some deeper issues at play, and the other three are completely imperious to reason once they've made up their minds about something. No point wasting our time pissing into the wind.

    LOL....

    Classic way to win an argument just declare yourself right.

    You guys really understand nothing of the gaming culture or 4chan, or women involved in gaming or anything else even remotely related...as I've said several times, it really is comical watching you all get played by these people when you have no clue about anything. The people who do have some knowledge of that tell you that you are wrong but you ignore it all...the fact that most of us telling you that you are wrong can't agree on anything ever should tell you something.

    But hey...as long as you get a chance to feel all self righteous...it's all good, right?

    Yes, it's obvious this is all a show, just like all those crocodile tears when an innocent person is shot.

    Ah, the Palin 101: Those gamers<Americans> aren't real gamers<Americans>! Their opinion doesn't matter! If it mattered, it would be the same as our opinion.

    And of course, the first sign of a false <American>gamer is that they rely on actual facts, quotable, citable, and demonstrable; whereas the first sign of a real(tm) <American>gamer is that they find other pundit real <Americans>gamers that agree with them about what the facts should be.

    Can't remember who, but someone did a pretty good compilation video showing that Joss Whedon's works have been guilty of doing the exact same thing Anita Sarkeesian accused games of doing in her videos.

    Anyhow, speaking of rape, anyone else a little amused at the irony of 14th Doctor being on the SJW side of this considering he defended an actual rapist? :diacanu:

    This is a vblog done by a feminist but she is a very fair and even handed fe.inist and she disagrees a lot about how certain people who call themselves feminists have been behaving in gamergate.

    TBH, I'm having a hard time following the argument here. Threatening to rape people is bad? Agreed. Video games turn people into rapists, or rape-threateners? Um, no.

    I've never really understood the whole "gamer" thing anyway. All kinds of people play video games. Games have long since entered the mainstream. I've been playing video games since I was 3 years old, but I wouldn't consider myself a "gamer" or part of any "gamer" subculture. Never raped anybody either; I must have skipped that level.

    That's an argument people are actually making in this thread, yes.
    That's not an argument people are actually making in this thread. Same with "video games need to be banned or censored." No one is pushing for that.

    Sometimes it's enough to simply point out unfortunate tropes in media when you see them. Some people just accept what they watch/play without really considering it. Knowledge is power. :shrug:

    So someone give me a list of these games that are so bad....limit only to AAA games, you can't go find some tiny Japanese rape-man game and call it proof. Games that are big budget/Mainstream and mass marketed.

    I'll take the gimme one.
