    I'm not sure if I am surprised by that.

    So, Greyblades, anyone who disagrees with you is Jack Thompson? You're cute, indeed.
    No, you're just repeating his arguments while also supporting sarkeesian's arguments for the same reasons.

    My impression is that Moody and Ironside seem to be operating upon the idea that what they advocate is different to what he did because it's the left saying sexism and not the right saying violence, I beleive they are allowing political affiliation to override any objections they have against censorship and they need a wakeup call. So I gambled and attempted to provoke a reaction that I could use prove my point.

    And here you are coming out of the sidelines; advocating both side's censorship with no political idealism to hide a belief that full grown adults cannot be trusted to view fiction without being negatively affected by it.

    When I saw it happen I was giddy that it worked out better than I had ever imagined.

    Now I am depressed that a single gamble did more to prove my point than hours of thought and effort.

    Being better than the worst does not inherently make you good. But being better than the rest lets you brag.
