The video boiled down to the person making remarks like Anita Sarkeesian has ('women are object' then proceeds to literally be desperate over lesbian ships

It was so funny because I cannot take the person seriously but don't go harass the person. If anything don't go stir the pot.

Anita Sarkeesian, there's a name I haven't heard in a long time.

It was truly horrifying the sorts of disgusting comments she received when that whole fiasco years back kicked off, but what really struck me was the perceived binary nature of it all. Either you supposedly had to be 100% behind Anita's videos and take all she said as gospel, or you had to be a misogynistic violent incel-type, no other choices. It really just didn't stack. Nothing is ever so black and white. I'm no violent misogynist and I was truly disgusted with the comments she received from violent incels, but I still thought her content was poorly researched, underdeveloped, and her most bombastic assertions relied on a lot of misandrist half-truths and outright lies.

I don't mean to draw an equivalency between the two extremes, but both were motivated by a hatred that's just fundamentally incompatible with my moral beliefs. One side had the insidious kind of hatred buried under a guise of equality and academic speak, the other had the more up-front kind of violent hatred transparently motivated by misogyny. Neither side contributed anything good to society in my opinion, just further division.
