that the crappiest history i ear since anita Sarkeesian
all this crappy geek don’t have a brain, i’m a geek almost nerd an i see everyday harassment against the women in my job an everywhere in geek community.
last year in game tournament three women are present, the two first days many “gamers say what size of your tis what size of your pant and tha question gone bad when hours pass.
third day i’m so tired to ear these shit and i take three geek an break their face with computer.
result no tournament for me for 1 year but it make me relax after i shoot these assholes.
so the women say me thank so much and now when i go in a tournament nobody try to fuck up the women when i’m here.
i so sad to have only this solution to resolve the harassment problem.

Which is exactly why she got blow back from the hackers. It’s hard for a leader to command respect from those he/she is leading when/he she doesn’t know much about what he/she is leading. Even harder when he/she walks into a foreign culture, and then immediately judges them and demands they change their behavior. It’s a common amateur mistake.

I don’t like it. It’s the TSA-like behavior of punishing the masses for the actions of the few. The same reason why I don’t participate when the HR at my Fortune 500 company tries to force me to sit through hours of diversity training and anti-sexual harassment material. It treats all men as potential rapists or racists or sexists. You know what? We aren’t. When you push for punishing the innocent, you have to expect to get some blow back.
