He was just sitting there apparently and when she saw him she started talking about him and ended calling him a garbage human.

Kinda mean for someone teaching peace and tolerance no? Bullied kids that commit suicide are called stuff like that and Anita hates bullying on Twitter yet she does it irl by singling him out in the audience and he cant' defend himself?

So Sargon peacefully sat and listened and Anita responds with vitriol. Lol. She's triggered by his very presence.

I don't have the highest opinion of Sargon as of recent months but Anita is a real piece of s***.

This is the part that I find reprehensible. She used her position at this event to bully someone in the crowd. Keep in mind that Sarkeesian has refused to debate people at presentations and went to the UN to encourage them to do something about people who are critical of her.
...
Friendly reminder that Anita is supposedly against harassment yet this is clearly harassment since he wasn't heckling or being belligerent. That's the most amusing thing. Anita has made an entire career off of victimizing herself and demanding her critics be silenced by blanketing all criticism of her under the same blanket as the harassers. Now that one of her most vocal critics merely attends and listens, her reaction is to harass.

She can't handle criticism and seeks to bully and silence those who do. What a winner in life.

Scenario B: Calling out person in real life in front of a large audience

Never mind the ideological underpinnings that make Anita a hypocrite for doing the latter, the scenarios are entirely different.

is a youtube video viewed by thousands of people really that different from an audience of a few hundred at most? like it or not internet spaces are public spaces too and they aren't any less 'real' than offline spaces.

i don't condone what she said about the guy, it was in really bad taste and she made herself look like a fool, but like it or not he treats her the same way pretty regularly.

re: 'ideological underpinnings' a person's personal feelings about another person isn't universally dictated by their ideology, emotions also play a part.

He attended a panel advertised under the title "Women Online Discussion" and berated the panelists for talking about women instead of men. During the Q&A he delivered a salty off-topic tirade, the panelists asked him to leave, Sargon continued to shout over them, he was escorted out of the room and Anita called him a troll and a "garbage human."

Fair, next.

I don't know if that's sarcasm, because that's not what happened AT ALL.

Sargon just attended, that's it, he didn't say a word. Anita saw him in the audience because he was near the front rows and went off on her rant in the middle of the panel.

At the end of the panel during the Q&A, Joey Salads asked the question, and Joey Salads was escorted out of the room. Sargon had nothing to do with that.

Here's the whole panel, she talks about Sargon at around 2:30 (right in the beginning of the panel), starts with "if you google my name on youtube, you get s***heads like this dude who are making these dumbass videos that just say the same s*** over and over again":

Not sarcasm; I was just serious misinformed. I confused Sargon for Joey Salads somehow. Watched a 10 second clip that didn't provide enough context, linked to a longer clip (Joey's) and thought I was watching the same thing. f***, that's embarrassing.

You're 100% right (no sarcasm).

I figured that's what happened, I thought the same thing for the first few seconds when TC posted the second video, but I'm very familiar with Joey Salads so I was like "wait...this is Joey Salads". Other people who aren't as familiar might not have made the connection. It's all good.

Side note, someone tweeting at Sargon had a nice line about the whole thing: "I hate harassment. Also, that guy right there is a s***head garbage human!"

They are clearly very different lol. The atmosphere is wholly different. They're more like blogs than anything. Those famous kid youtubers with over a million views and subscribers would most certainly not be as relaxed and casual if they were onstage in front of a national stage of IRL millions of people. I myself had a spongebob battle for bikini bottom final boss video with over a million views back in 2010 and I barely glanced at the comments, it's definitely not like playing in front of an actual public space.

There might be some truth to that. But to be fair, Sarkeesian's entire career and body of work as a feminist video game "expert" can be basically boiled down to somebody, somewhere on the internet said something mean to me and something mean about all women everywhere.

They just agree with her tactics and her views, so they want to minimize the friction she receives on her way towards influencing legislation and s***.

    I can believe that. I met some college students who had never watched Lord of the Rings and didn't know what The Matrix is. All pop references went straight over their heads. The worst (IMO) are the people who have no absolutely no clue what happened on 9/11. I didn't think that was possible, but there are people who live enjoyable lives without ever reading or watching the news. On second thought, maybe that's why it's enjoyable.

    How many people do you think pay attention to people who speak at the UN? Probably very few.

    Tons of people show up on TV shows, that doesn't mean they're memorable to the general public.

    Outside of would-be social activists on twitter and game developers trying to not get her and games journalists s***ting on their game, I don't think she has much of an audience. I mean, I think most of the coverage regarding her has next to nothing to do with the content she produces and more to do with "Some people said mean things to her on the internet. Women have it so hard. Be sympathetic."

    This. I have never heard of Sargon or seen Anita popup in almost a year. Point is, these people are worthless to the world. They are just as worthless as you and me; following this "drama" is a waste of the finite time you have being alive.

    you gotta understand that for a lot of these forum-gamer dudes, whose list of hobbies pretty much start and end at "post about the intersection of video games and politics online", this is literally the only thing happening in the world to them. it's the filter through which they interpret all other news and they don't have much else in their lives to distract them from it.

    I doubt a single person reading this could, without Googling, say who the last person to give a TED talk was, or the last person to speak at the UN was, or even name a quarter of Colbert's guests.

    You know her because Gamergate was a thing.

    Who the f*** is Sargon?

    fat british dropout who moans about feminists to an audience of suburban white american boys who assume he must be smart due to his accent


    I like his This Week in Stupid videos on occasion, but I remember he did some internet debate with a feminist professor some time ago and he did very poorly.

    His points could be summarized as "Something something, manspreading! Blah blah, mansplaining!" It was pretty cringey. And I say that as someone who has some negative opinions regarding feminists and feminism.

    How do you propose limiting Sarkeesian or this Sargon guy? They get invited to mainstream and, yes, niche events to speak, while still creating videos for one of the most popular websites for user-submitted content on the planet. Meanwhile, we can barely have a discussion about it because their fans not surprisingly think you're sexist for even bringing it up and the non-fans get insulted when someone mentions them.

    I know the one you're talking about. Imagine the type of people who watched that and thought Sargon won handily. That's gamergate, well, the dregs of its remains at this point I should say. I never really thought they were a dangerous bunch, but certainly one of the more notable motherloads of stupidity I've encountered in my net-drama adventures.

    I used to actually watch TED talks fairly regularly, but I lost interest in that some time ago. I couldn't tell you any of the speakers at the UN and I couldn't name any guests on the Colbert Report.

    However, of the people that do know of Sarkeesian, I think a lot of them were aware of her before Gamergate, because she got the bulk of her attention before Gamergate happened. She got popular because some games journalists wanted to take up for the lady who was getting s*** on for her kickstarter.

    Is this a bad time to say I don't especially have a problem with Gamergate? Yeah, there was some bad behaviour all around during the big s*** show a couple years ago and the "ethics in games journalism" mostly amounts to "b****ing about SJWs", but I don't buy the claims that they're a hate campaign determined to keep gaming straight, white, and male.

    On the other hand, if you want to wade through some s***...

    Yeah is some guy who pays black people do to things like break up a car or hit someone and he claims it for like a TV show or something. Then later it claims that it is real and just these random black people messed up this guys car since it had a Trump sticker on it.

      Oh you are but surprisingly you were one of the few who didn't do as described above.

      Also if you're curious it's about 6 users that I have tagged that acted in a very predictable manner and this isn't the only time this has happened which in part makes it so glorious.

      If you think Anita Sarkeesian is well known to the world, then you are completely out of touch with reality. "She's spoken in front of the UN!" As if that's the hallmark of celebrity, lol. Your little YouTube heroes are still nobodies irl, no matter howe many likes or subs you've given them.
