What universe is that? One where all the foaming-at-the-mouth misogynists trolls have had their Internet license of abusing people protected by long distance and anonymity revoked?
The fact that you "keep hearing about them" should give you a hint. Women who come to the attention of a subsection of Internet trolls do find themselves harassed online (death threats, rape threats, etc.). See Gamergate or Adria Richards for recent examples. It's pretty well documented.
- leaveyou 12y agoIt's a more sane universe than yours it seems. And I'm going to keep it that way by excluding people like you from it if you can't tone down your aggresivity. I don't know what Gamergate is nor do I know Adria Richards and I don't intend to know all the victims in this world. /ignored
- mercurial 12y agoYou'll have noticed that most of my vitriol was directed toward the aforementioned trolls. But the snark was unwarranted. > I don't know what Gamergate is nor do I know Adria Richards and I don't intend to know all the victims in this world. Are you both claiming that these things do not happen, and refusing information about them? That's a dishonest way of conducting a discussion.
