YouTube, "sarkeesian busted", "sarkeesian debunked", etc.pp.
Because you are too angry to even be able to explain exactly why you feel this way? Maybe you should watch some of Anita Sarkeesian's tropes vs women in video games.

Instead of posting offtopic/derailing can you tell me why you think she is a con artist?

I think it is pretty funny how you show up to one of very few remaining male oriented spaces
I stopped there. You think this is only a space where males are welcome? Bitcoin only for men? https://twitter.com/magaFirst/status/497118604803190785Listen to Wilikon. There are people from a lot of spaces. That means there come a lot of different opinions and as the community expands more voices heard/read.

Before people like myself get lumped up with some insane anonymous threat to a nobody like anita You just lumped yourself together with it. I only mentioned the threat as an example cause you act like I "started all this", damn arrogant when a whole lot of Bitcoiners jumped on me just for posting about it. Open your minds people, anyway if you were closed minded how come you managed to see the greatness of Bitcoin?? Now on another thing. I've not seen anybody in the bitcointalk community say a positive thing about it, so as it is now "pre Nov 2014" there is no interest so me asking her if she would like to accept it, she would just tell me to google for "Anita Sarkeesian Bitcoin" and I would be linked to this thread. This is what the Bitcoin community thinks about Anita Sarkeesian "pre Nov 2014". Though times change, as will Bitcoin prices as well when they skyrocket one day and our community automatically expands to new reaches. Then may be a time to see what the community's standpoint is then. Until then I'll also want to gather any info in like a tutorial on how to store Bitcoin on more than one Bitcoin addresses.(it's already possible now, so I can focus on documenting that somewhere, or find a tutorial which may exist somewhere) Security for the cost of convenience when storing serious Bitcoin money.

Where's YOUR gain in defending and trying to raise even more money for a con artist?
Go create a ponzi or something.
The purpose was discussion. So how does that threat message look to you? Nothing special?

But I believe you could find better people than anita to represent your cause.
My "cause"? ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FhKdjh4u.jpg&t=663&c=nnlqunA4AmW9ag) “This is a warning to all staff and students at Utah State University" turns up results on web searches. Also notice the word " speaking". This thread is about Anita Sarkeesian and her project Feminist Frequency if you haven't noticed. This is no cause of mine other than to bring up the topic, but since you and many others have failed to understand this maybe you could post in some other thread where you productivity is greater. Bitcoin needs you in those threads. It's better to avoid posting in threads that you don't understand the meaning of or aren't interested in. I'm asking the Bitcoin community, is there anybody out there that finds Anita Sarkeesian's work valuable and would you like to donate to her in Bitcoin? (as stated before you can say why you would like to donate[if you think it's obvious why, then you don't need to specify the reasons] or why you wouldn't like to donate and your choice if you want to tell the community why. The reason I started the thread was to see if somebody in the Bitcoin community is interested to donate to her cause, especially after her popular series "Tropes vs. Women in Video Games", so this is an after completed work donation. She has already finished the work and I would like to know if anybody in the Bitcoin community finds that work valuable in some way(like creating more interesting games rather than killing games by just repeating known stereotypes Ad nauseam)

@op Nice troll, 8/10 ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Anita Sarkeesian has said that the most radical thing you can do when listening to a woman talking about experienced harassment is to just listen to it. If you forcibly stop listening to somebody and are just ignoring then clearly you should not be posting here. Ignoring a topic, posting an off-topic response and trying to derail a thread is just shooting yourself in the foot(making yourself look stupid). Don't come here if you can't make any written response that makes sense instead of "Hey, I'll insult the OP because that happens often in this thread" Start by saying why you think it isn't worthwhile, or is worthwhile to donate and state your reasons. "She's a con woman" or "she mindcontrolled her kickstarter fans into giving her money" are not really serious and will just make you look stupid.

IDIOTIC-POTENTIAL = 100%
Are you going to explain why you think so or do you just want to communicate your feelings on the subject?

It is very difficult to insult a whole community of bitcoiners while asking that same community to give their bitcoins away to a fraud, anita that is. I respect your hard work ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) So, just quote me once where you interpreted me as asking for money.

What coinmode said. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Right, but what do you silversurfer1958 think personally? Would you like to donate some Bitcoin to Anita Sarkeesian or find it cool if she accepted Bitcoin in light of that the majority of Bitcoiners are men and don't find it very easy to welcome women as part of the community apart from their physical appearance? Also why do you misrepresent the definition of what a con artist is? Are you supportive of bad language as an excuse for not having any arguments?

What do you think about these 2 personalities on youtube? Credible or fraud? Neither or you are neutral?
"Jordan Owen 42 here." and Davis M.J. Aurini

Honestly, no one really likes Feminazis. Who do you mean exactly? Other than other Feminazis. ...and who do you mean exactly here? ---------- Also do you think it is ok to compare somebody whose opinions you don't agree to as a nazi to further your own point of view? Also do you know what a nazi even is?

Warning: this topic has not been posted in for at least 120 days. Unless you're sure you want to reply, please consider starting a new topic. Yes, does there exist another thread about Blizzard's current state of mind on Bitcoin( yes, not 3 year old "news")? I can buy candy, computers and hardware from a reputable store here in Sweden and I can buy indie games from Humble Bundle inc. I think it's high time Blizzard starts accepting Bitcoin.

Myself I'm willing to donate to her to show my support. The shit I hear about her being a con artist is just ludicrous. It is simple hate speech, not a serious argument. Most of her "critics" are unserious and don't provide any arguments. Some say stuff that go off-topic. Cause they know Anita has a point, they don't. Thus the shitstorm. Anyway if this thread's number one goal was to push the bitcoiners to know more about the "anita brand" I believe it was a success.
Find out what the Bitcoin community's stance on if they are "hateful"/"loveful" or neutral on if Anita Sarkeesian would start accepting Bitcoin. If they would be positive or neutral, in that case would they like to donate to her or find the option desirable. If they would not like to donate, where are the arguments? I mean arguments, not just "I hate her, I hate her, I hate her". Cause that's not an argument ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) Wilikon, it was soooo important for you how she looks? Maybe that makes you feel better about yourself. Nobody will ever say to you the following? "Wilikon's a real sexy guy, that's why I watch his vids where he talks about computers, just watch those sexy lips"

Anita and her friend zoe are gamers. They do not need to be playing action packed games with a bunch of guys to prove they are gamers<snip> Feminist Frequency on twitter mentioned the Humble Indie Bundle 12(+12 days left) going on which gives the game Gone Home, if paying over the average with Bitcoin. <snip>but at least it would have been nice to have pictures and videos of anita enjoying herself playing anything. I would not even mind seeing her on her gameboy destroying tetris ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Plants vs Zombies vs Trolls? by anitasarkeesian, on Flickr Plants vs Zombies is a game I bought with Bitcoin on Humble Bundle inc. when the pvsz game got released for Android. I've played that game a long time ago on a mac, so since I couldn't have it for linux(no port) I thought this a good opportunity to get this game to my collection, on Android with the Humble Bundle app. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) The problem is not so much anita, but the lack of women gamers whose voice are not heard Any example/examples? Anita Sarkeesian basically does an analysis of video games. From the video(7m30s) released 2014-06-16 she shows: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fupload.wikimedia.org%2Fwikipedia%2Fen%2F0%2F05%2FMassEffect2_cover.PNG&t=663&c=IES6PUfJA2RCyw) Mass Effect 2(rel 2010) where regardless of if you choose to play as man/woman the player character still finds it entertaining to watch a 'stripper woman' perform before him/her. I've linked directly to that scene above but I put a mirror link here just in case(7m30s) you missed it.

Hmmm... you just made a huge assumption about me though, but I won't take that personally.
Where? Quote please

Anita Sarkeesian: Because my dad was a networking engineer I basically grew up surrounded by computers and started playing PC games at a pretty young age. My dad was a computer networking engineer, so while I was growing up our house was full of computers and he would always have a few machines loaded with games for me. When I was about 10, I remember I campaigned for months to convince my parents that the “Game Boy” was not in fact just for boys. So how many of you had dads who were in the tech business, and let you grow up with a lot of technology at a young age? Me from 4-5 years old...(had among other things some computer called QL if I remember correctly) I don't say that you must have had parents working in the technology industry, just a curious interest from my side.

Anita fully admits that she doesn't like video games<snip>
Anita Sarkeesian said that 3 years ago. It looks like you assume that what somebody(anybody!) said 3 years ago holds true for all eternity in the future. If I talked about 3 years ago how much I hate eating biscuit chocolate and how horrible the taste is, but the last 6 months I talk about that the taste isn't that bad after all, that I gotten used to it and that it is actually one of my favourites as of late, would you just continue ranting on that tjohej hated biscuit chocolate 3 years ago? Or say I hated Bitcoin 3 years ago, but the last 6 months I love it.(ie. a cryptography enthusiast explained to me in detail how it works over 4 hours of Q&A and everything I had doubts for got answered at that time so I became passionate about it ever since)
