No one actually fucking likes him, right? None of us were excited to cast that vote or we just wanted Trump out, right. Like at the end of the day, that is the win, that Trump is no longer going to be president for another four years. But I really urge everyone to understand that we elected a old white dude that is a career politician deeply rooted in pro-war neoliberal philosophies. Not just not having Trump isn't enough.

And I'm really also tired of people being like "well we got to get a Democrat in, because we can fight, as the left we can push Democrats and get them to do the things we want them to do". Which is what you say every fucking election and it never works. - Anita Sarkeesian on the election

My favorite thing about Anita Sarkeesian besides making gamers seethe, is that her criticisms have had a positive effect on video game narrative quality. When she critiqued Dishonored for it's not so great portrayal of women, the devs took that to heart and crafted the second games narrative to address it, thus making Emily a playable character. Thanks Anita!

honestly kinda crazy how my view of her has changed after moving left. As a teenager I was a pretty left-wing but didn't like SJWs for some reason, and I thought she was a wacko. Eventually I turned 15 and my critical thinking skills started to actually develop, and now I don't really mind her work.
