New Feminist Frequency video

First of all, [b][i]if you have nothing insightful or relevant to say regarding discussion of the video, please do not post in this thread.[/i][/b] I've seen too many Feminist Frequency topics filled with shitposts from people who are either trolls, in denial, or haven't even watched the whole video. Please take that junk elsewhere. That's not to say you can't disagree with what's depicted or described, but [i]please[/i] try to articulate your argument and refrain from the drive-by posts. *Ahem* Anyways, [url=https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZPSrwedvsg]here's part one for those who haven't watched it.[/url] As for my opinion, while I thought Part 1 was a bit inconsistent (even though it still echoed a lot of truth), I thought Anita was pretty much spot on in this video. Females being murdered, and violently/sexually depicted is getting old. Tropes aren't inherently bad, but they can become tiresome from overuse, and this trope is one of them IMO.

  • Meh welcome to real life being portrayed in a video game. Get over it. The game is rated M for a reason. Dont like it? Then dont play it.

  • She's old news, nobody cares about her anymore. Literally not one post on /v/ or /b/ or /vg/ about her, everybody cares about Zoe Quinn now.

    • >Century #21 >Supporting Anita "I'm not a gamer" Sarkeesian You've reached Destiny-era Bungie tier stupidity, OP. You better check yourself before you disconnect yourself. [quote]>Comments are disabled for this video. >Ratings are disabled for this video.[/quote]I'm dumbfounded that this isn't evidence enough to you knuckle draggers that Sarkeesian is blatantly full of shit and will do everything she can to avoid facing rebuttals. ayylmao/10.

      • More game options? great. Criticizing games in hopes that something get taken out of already established game at cost to those that have enjoyed game is like censoring said game. And Censoring games at the expense/cost of those who love those games is WRONG. You don't change games to appease. Then there will be no games. cause there will be someone that will get offended by something. Geez.. feels like the same thing I mentioned on the mary sue site. What I'm I doing there? I Have a friend who posts there. (I like reading her posts) And cause I'm brave. Not bad as tumblr, tho you do have those extremists there. Still I don't get hate mobbed. probably cause they know Surt loves women. Hi ladies. ;) lol

        • OP, if anyone is in denial, it's her. Sarkeesian is full of bullshit and everyone knows that. Her arguments always lack depth, consistency, and logic, yet she keeps posting the same videos to cry victim. Not only that, she takes things completely out of context and disables any ratings or comments on all of her videos. At the very onset of criticism, she buries her head in the sand. All she does is complain about problems that don't even exist while shutting out any dissent.

          • "Wahhhh. They killed a female character to make the game seem more gritty!" How many times do men get ruthlessly murdered in video games? Exactly. Feminist Frequency is an idiot.

            • Most of the games she took as examples of women being portrayed in the "wrong way" was games played out set in a time that is quite some time ago. Red Dead Redemption or Assassin's Creed for example. The reason for women being the way they are in those games are because they were handled like that during that time...

                *ahem* I watched and listened for 7 minutes... still no bacon sandwich. I heard something about prostitutes being beaten up. I saw a zombie tied to a bed. Nothing made sense. In the end, it comes down to eyebrows. No way am I listening to somebody with eyebrows that badly drawn.

                • I don't understand why she doesn't use the money she gets to produce a game with a strong female lead instead of complaining about lack of women in games

                    We seriously need to make these "feminists" get a new name. I'm a feminist according to my sociology book. Internet feminists are not feminists, they believe women are superior, not equal or complimentary, to men. [spoiler]besides, men are portrayed in video games as hulking piles of muscle with sculpted-titanium jaws, we don't get rustled up about it[/spoiler]

                      • Yeah, I really wish games would let me brutally murder thousands of men without a second thought, or even maim them to the point where they no longer resemble a human. The handful of games where a women is presented to have sexuality or where a female is harmed even once is simply [i]despicable![/i]

                        • you are talking about a person who isn't allowing open debate. Who censors any type of debate no mater how right and truthful their argument is. She hides behind "all men hate me and leave mean comments on my videos!" no duh, she starts a fire with ignorant videos making only females in games the victims when it's already been proven men in games are portrayed the same way. Not just men but women gamers on youtube have stood up against her BS too. She blocks ratings and comments for all her videos so only her word is the absolute. How anyone could give her the time and day is beyond me. If she isn't willing to have an open dialogue then her videos aren't worth the time. It's all a big fat ploy. Your post is as good as a troll post saying crap like "everyone is in denial" no, only her blind followers and Anita herself. /thread

                            • I'm not going to even bother watching it. It's a load of BS. Her past videos have been disproven to hell and back and she's a hypocrite for wearing makeup.

                              • To believe that it cost $150k for some extremely weak arguments. She made a point or two there, only for them to be covered in a frenzy of godawful arguments that she refuses to allow debate over.
