Chad linking to Geek Feminism Wiki to explain the "Gittip Crisis" is a testament to how effective the disinformation was, as that page repeats the lies used to whip up the crowd against him in the first place, including misrepresenting discussion on this very site: >Shortly thereafter, Chad Whitacre, the founder of gittip, responded positively to (CW: Hacker News) a comment on Hacker News calling gittip "a joke dominated by professional victims" because women use it. Actual comment: >Yelling on Twitter and demonizing men for existing is not "promoting empathy and equality". Begging for legal money for your civil lawsuit is not "sustainable crowd funding" (hint: what is she being sued for? it doesn't say.). Sorry Gittip, but your site has turned into a joke dominated by professional victims. It was never about women, and always about how "women in tech" is a glaringly obvious smokescreen to funnel money from real contributors to posers and grievance mongers. A gold star if you can guess which notorious "women in tech" activist this was about.
