I don’t think there are enough feminists criticising anita sarkeesian tbh. I get that she’s done some good work and i do agree with most of her points in representation of women in video games, but out of the discussion on video games she starts becoming a little problematic. She’s made some pretty slut shaming comments recently (i would go as far as saying she’s a swerf but thats up for debate as to whether it extends that far) she’s also got an issue with using queer to describe the LGBTQIA+ community (which everyone knows is a slur if you don’t belong to that community; as far as we know she is straight and cis, i know it’s bad to assume she’s those things but having an ambiguity about it doesn’t give her a right to use the term. again thats up for debate as there are a some members of the community that don’t consider “queer” a slur anymore)
there are more things i could talk about but this post is already quite long. i respect how she’s brought light to a lot of issues, but that doesn’t mean we can’t call her out for mistakes she’s made.
