> a faggot with some asanine, inane, subversive over-opinionation
Send these degenerates East, immediately.
Videogames aren't a hobby, the sewerbrain gutter-empiricst brainwash machine complex is just an inescapable matrice of mastur-stimmulatory retardism. That the botched, set-up 'games industry' capitulates without resistance to such doggerel rubbish proves that it is simply a stronghold for propagandized social subversion.

The powers of narcissistic OCD. "If you don't do things my way with my approval you are completely and utterly wrong. If you don't bend the entire universe to my needs and wants. That also makes you a terrible person."
Just a quick reminder to stay away from transgender groups in general. Appeasing them will never work because people who are afflicted with that strain of narcissistic OCD always manage to find new problems.

I can't believe they made to the second sentence of the second paragraph before springing this word on the reader.
> list of "-ism"s
Wow, 5th paragraph. They must really be gritting their teeth.
> 1) Publish a highly visible reference statement explaining your site’s stance on sexism, racism, classism, ableism, homophobia and transphobia.
Yes, because that worked so well for Chik-Fil-A.
> When they complete the training, they receive a fabulous rainbow sticker for their office door.
> fabulous
I'm sure the irony of this seemingly insignificant choice of wording is lost on the author, but I found it amusing.
> Trigger Warning
brb, gonna go shoot up someplace because I read something online.
> Learn what words should be permanently banned and don’t allow comments that include those words.

> 4Chan will make the same ugly threads about you as they do about me and my friends.
Yes, please tell me more about how that place hates everybody with complete sincerity and isn't just a bunch of neckbeards being edgy because they're "Anonymous Legion" trolls.
> For a long time, the Mormon Church banned anyone with African heritage from holding a position of leadership.
Oh yes, the old "not understanding my gender identity is the same as segregating black and white people" comparison. As much as I couldn't give two shits about being politically correct about anything whatsoever, you really shouldn't be comparing Ladies or Gentleman signs to 300+ years of manual forced labor. It makes you seem self-important and ignorant.
> If you tell certain readers that they are not welcome, they will squawk like parrots: “Free speech!” Let them practice their “free speech” somewhere else. They can start their own blogs or they can go find a website that still condones their behavior. Your websites are not public parks. You have no obligation to let people say whatever they want on your sites.
Go practice your free speech somewhere else. Also,
> You have no obligation to let people say whatever they want on your sites.
Likewise they have no more obligation to cater to any other demographic that wishes to be catered to.
And then there's the lone commentor:
> You have my total support, and I greatly appreciate you included disabled gamers, as I’m one, in addition to being female and non-gender-conforming (autistic).
> female and non-gender-conforming (autistic).
What is autistic in parenthesis supposed to refer to? You are non-gender-conforming because you are autistic? Autism is some type of alternate gender orientation? That makes no sense at all.

Anita Sarkeesian is the woman with the yellow shit around her neck. She's an anoying feminist and thinks the biggest threat to women worldwide is how they are shown in ideo games.

My point is that it implies some sort of drastic action will be taken by the reader is they are not warned ahead of time, and then it's just a mildly rude comment. It's overdramatization of something that normal people might encounter on a daily basis and just shrug off.
