On the other hand, the usage of pseudo-academic lingo to attempt to bludgeon the other side into submission is also pretty laughable at times.
The side that act the least adult and with the least interest to really adress what t other side is saying will not make it out on the other side in any meaningful way. Sarkessian is done for example, it is just a matter of time.
Sarkeesian has lost majority of her viewer base after the colbert report. Her last video plateaued at 800k views, while her previous (part 1) segment only managed 600k views. Her last video got that spike increase because it was released on 8/25/14, days after the zoe quin blow out.
The colbert report unfortunately put a nail in the coffin. A lot of people think colbert really coddled her, but if you watch the ENTIRE show, you can see the obvious contrasting between the two people he interviewed. Anita may have been able to disable the comments to try to hid her criticism, but the like bar, AND the facebook page were a war zone. Especially after her asinine petition to get god of war taken off the shelves.
