(13,986 posts)Either you know less than you think about technology, or never learned how to debate, or both. Hardly matters, really.
Your value here has been to expose a pervasive phenomenon: masking a misogynistic agenda by arguing peripheral matters ad nauseum.
The harm suffered by the women who are victimized does not come up in your posts: instead, you worry about someone quite else being called out for either causing or facilitating said harm.
About Ms. Watson and other victims of this repugnant behavior you care not a whit: their suffering is unimportant to you.
That is a prime example of why feminism is so crucial: the terror suffered by women just doesn't matter to you or people like you. No, far more urgent is it to defend libertarian web providers, and the people who run scams and enrich themselves via terror.
People like you are feminism exists. People like you are why I am an ally. People like you are why men like me stand with feminists.
Because all people are supposedly created equal. And our actions determine our worth. Defending those who deliberately inflict harm on others without their consent is the sort of thing one expects from those who count women as "less than".
In closing, ere I bid you adieu on your voyage back beneath your trestle, I thank you for illuminating and exemplifying the mindset we are trying to address. The fact that you actually mean what you say merely adds urgency.
