Show that you are against sexism by getting Feminist Frequency removed from the 300$m diversity program from Intel by sending them a message

PerniciousOne · 2015-01-08T21:19:47+00:00

Sent them a message.

I said that they are alienating their target demographic, which happens to be me. I am a purchaser of Intel Processors and have my family and friends purchase them as well because of their reliability. Now it will make me have second thoughts about purchasing from a brand which will throw its customers under the bus.

petey1214 · 2015-01-09T01:12:57+00:00

I sent them an e-mail including screenshots like this: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B6zc_IRCAAAG-M0.jpg To show how they look to the outside world supporting these hate mongering bigots.

ZeJerman · 2015-01-09T01:14:24+00:00

Done, and i have canceled my order for the i7 i was going to upgrade too. AMD get in me

aesopstortoise · 2015-01-08T23:08:54+00:00

I recommended that they broaden their consultations to include people like Christina Hoff Sommers and The Fine Young Capitalists.

Ludus22 · 2015-01-09T01:27:01+00:00

Done. This is really bad news. Intel, it calls to question your integrity when you partner up with a hate monger, feminazi and extremist. Guess i'm going AMD for my CPU upgrade.

LordofNothing1984 · 2015-01-08T22:25:48+00:00

Submitted. I have to wonder what Intel suits were thinking when they brought her in.

c0mputar · 2015-01-09T00:30:27+00:00

In before reddit mods shut this thread down under the guise of some twisted interpretation of doxxing or...

JK, they already prohibit subs from appealing to sponsors.

baskandpurr · 2015-01-08T22:02:59+00:00

Done and done.

a_w_e_s_o_m_e · 2015-01-09T00:10:29+00:00

I don't normally send petitions or emails to corporations about who they sponsor.. but I despise Anita Sarkeesian and if they support her.. I will no longer buy their products

Wargame4life · 2015-01-09T01:36:25+00:00

can someone make some screenshots with Anitas most extreme ridiculous twitter claims with a photo shopped "brought to you by intel"

so we can send them

lots of her shit is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qzpue3MPuko.

we need to make it clear how bat shit crazy this bint is, and how intel is basically rubbishing their own reputation by partnering

STorrible · 2015-01-09T04:43:15+00:00

Even if Intel takes Anita seriously as a critic, even if they ignore the fact that there are already thousands of women (working in the industry or otherwise) who are more informed and in a better position to offer better ideas, what else can Anita offer that isn't already available on the internet? Why do they even need to pay the SJWs for ideas on improving diversity? Openly ask for feedback and they will happily drown Intel with their "wonderful ideas". It's obvious that attaching FF's name to the campaign is a symbolic gesture, nothing more.

patcomen · 2015-01-09T11:29:26+00:00

Done. Here's the comment:

I am very concerned about your choice to grant $300 million to a gender-specific cause, no matter the good intentions. Equality is not bought by division, favoritism, and sexism. I urge you to abandon this approach for a more reasonable method, or at least one that is gender-neutral.

NEMESiSupreme · 2015-01-08T23:12:41+00:00

I sent them a thoughtful message. However, I bet it's going straight to the garbage bin.

2015-01-09T02:49:23+00:00

Just sent a thoughtful message explaining I'll be looking to AMD for my newest machine. I'm not having anything to do with any company that supports that troll.

2015-01-09T11:06:44+00:00

Given that male nerds (well, nerds in general) are the latest target of feminists, and that they're the most likely to buy Intel products (outside of manufacturers)...yeah, way to shoot yourselves in the face, Intel.

theguffaw · 2015-01-08T20:43:35+00:00

Can you give some more info on this program? I'm not a fan of Sarkeesian in the slightest, but I'd like to know what it involves before doing anything.

ChemicallyBlind · 2015-01-09T03:00:12+00:00

I also have sent an email, im appalled by Intel's choice,

Kernes · 2015-01-09T05:01:01+00:00

I don't believe it will work, but i complained and will choose AMD if they don't change their mind.

scanspeak · 2015-01-08T22:36:32+00:00

Done.

2015-01-08T23:21:54+00:00

Sent them a message. I had heard about the 300m, and that is good, but really, using Anita

EclipseClemens · 2015-01-09T02:01:53+00:00

Done and done.

AppropriateTouching · 2015-01-09T02:05:38+00:00

I've never been happier to have chosen an 8350 over an I5.

wolfofthewest · 2015-01-09T02:21:12+00:00

I think we broke it. I tried sending a message, got an internal server error.

That's kind of message in itself. When so many people pound on your door for a word that the door breaks, you notice that.

2015-01-09T05:00:44+00:00

Time to market AMD now. Fuck Intel.

mulerider · 2015-01-09T05:56:39+00:00

I sent them an email telling them I would now buy exclusively from their competitor, AMD, because of this decision.

SwanOfAvon22 · 2015-01-09T09:32:03+00:00

To whom it may concern,

I am writing in response to Intel's recent partnership with Feminist Frequency, ostensibly to pursue greater diversity in the tech industry.

I consider this a laudable goal but Feminist Frequency is not a means to that end. They represent the worst of an irrational, often hateful brand of third wave feminism that has demonized masculinity, insulted large swaths of the gaming world over, to put it mildly, trivial and often fabricated grievances, and actively pursued the censorship of gaming media.

Please reconsider this ill-advised partnership. Until such time, I cannot in good conscience continue to patronize your company.

baserace · 2015-01-09T09:45:59+00:00

In before they disable messages under pressure from the feminazis.

anonagent · 2015-01-09T14:37:04+00:00

Seriously? we had to mass complain to them over fucking GamerGate, and now they're trying to support the exact same shit in a different package?!

Salient0ne · 2015-01-09T15:16:20+00:00

Yeah im done with intel thanks to this and I let them know. You have to vote with your wallet.

joewilson-MRA · 2015-01-09T12:33:23+00:00

Done!

EliCaaash · 2015-01-09T12:55:52+00:00

Done.

Baydude98 · 2015-01-09T15:01:25+00:00

Well, guess I'm switching to AMD then.

2015-01-09T15:24:26+00:00

Done!

2015-01-09T15:38:01+00:00

Could someone please make a photoshop of anita sarkeesian as a game character and then a logo "Brought to you by intel" and the feminist frequency logo? I'll try to get some hype to boicot intel if they continue with this bullshit.

2015-01-09T15:50:31+00:00

Looks like my next machine will be an AMD.

PowerWisdomCourage · 2015-01-09T16:09:06+00:00

Sent. Considering AMD has a female CEO, that made is on qualifications and experience, Intel really should find better methods or goals. Diversity is great and all, but there's no point in forcing it. They should take that $300 million and invest it into lower income areas; providing people, who have actual hurdles to overcome, an education they would never get otherwise.

LasherDeviance · 2015-01-09T16:22:59+00:00

I keep getting a 500 internal server error every time I hit submit.

IlleFacitFinem · 2015-01-09T19:51:20+00:00

I also hate the new commercials with Sheldon in them. So much forced humor, plus i hate Sheldon

2015-01-10T17:14:39+00:00

SwitchToAMD Lets use it on Twitter...

rg57 · 2015-01-09T00:13:07+00:00

"500 - Internal server error. There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed."

It appears someone has broken it. :(

RusskiEnigma · 2015-01-09T01:20:25+00:00

why do you guys hate anita sarkeesian?

Luckyluke23 · 2015-01-09T02:50:46+00:00

i have no fucking idea why they are doing this... it just sounds bad for business...

who the fuck is going to make there chisp? a black women? really?

baskandpurr · 2015-01-08T22:45:23+00:00

I know most male gamers have a (what I believe to be) an irrational hatred of Sarkeesian. I actually agree with most of her critiques wholeheartedly while still enjoying the same games which are the subject of her critiques.

Even if you do disagree with what she says - can you really call it sexism? Is it sexist to claim that video games are sexist against women - even if the claim is erroneous?
