A few things:

Some group DMs got leaked tonight, and were selectively chosen to paint a completely false narrative about me not respecting NB people.

If you read our whole group chat youd see comments from me talking about how I think NB people are experiencing real pain.

I don't think you can call her a TERF for anything she expressed there. Or even right-wing.

Is someone whose claim to fame is arguing with gamers, running a failed House campaign, and now pulling the enlightened centrist thing while targeting other LGBTQ+ people after being the definition of an annoying leftist/feminist for years really all that much of ally?

It's like telling a Republican that MTG is their ally. Sure that's the case officially, but effectively the chick is worse than useless for whatever cause they're pushing.

I'm not saying that as if it's morally reprehensible to target gamers, but to point out that it's a relatively ineffective use of time for anyone with a platform. Basement dwellers aren't oppressing anyone.

Yes, and calling out harassment is fine. I'm saying she went after far more gamers than just the ones harassing people.

I'm not centrist or right-wing. You're an example of an annoying partisan, the opposite side of the coin from annoying centrists like Wu who think Dems are too far-left. Instead you think everyone not on your side is on the other by default.

I have no idea what is going on in those messages. I think that one word towards the beginning that starts with T has fallen out of favor (or maybe never was in favor), but otherwise I have no clue what anyone is talking about.

prove it

She called out David Pakman (liberal and not a harasser) for not covering Gamergate/interviewing her properly, esports teams for not recruiting more women (the opposite of harassment, technically), award organizations for honoring gaming devs with rumored misconduct (while the recipient may be a harasser, organizations are not), gaming media sites for not hiring enough minorities, and so on and so forth I'm not going over every instance in which a known outspoken feminist gamer criticized others in the gaming world over the course of a like 10 year career. My only point was that her criticism has absolutely not been limited to the toxic creep portion of gamers.

so let me guess dude tried to downplay the fact gamergate was a hate campain and she called him out on it

that is not calling out gamers

Inohira posted...
award organizations for honoring gaming devs with rumored misconduct (while the recipient may be a harasser, organizations are not),
again not attacking gamers and you wont even list which devs and what they where accused of

Part of her issue with the Pakman interview is that he actually did address her alleged sockpuppet account and she was caught off-guard without any satisfactory explanation. Accused him of running a hit piece lol:
