Just wondering?

What exactly is she wanting to say here?

If tweeter's moniker is any indication, she(?) apparently believes that people are outraged over Ferguson primarily because the gender of the victim was male, and that the focus on the race of the victim is just a pretext to hide the fact that there wouldn't be nearly the outrage if the victim had been a woman.
 
Who cares? She's one of the most ridiculous people on the planet, who is definitely doing a lot more to hurt her ostensible cause than to help it. Is that fake? Seems a bit extreme, even for her.
 
Is that actually true? I can't actually find that Tweet in her Twitter feed and I went back through the beginning of August. So... fake? I mean, I'm no expert at Twitter, but if this offending tweet exists, shouldn't we have a link to it instead of an easily manipulated image file?

Cross-posted from an earlier reply I made in PC Gaming (emphasis added): You people make it very difficult to offer up any intellectual debate of Sarkeesian because it immediately gets lumped in with the mindless hostility of people who can't be bothered to fact-check the most basic of claims before getting their rage on. You could say Sarkeesian did literally anything and large groups of people would believe it with no evidence whatsoever. And when evidence comes out that it's fake? "Well, it's something she would have done anyway, so our anger is justified!" She's become the object of delusional paranoia and it's ventured so far into absurdist territory that it defies all belief.

Which is inherently false because a black woman being shot by a cop would probably generate even more outrage.
 
Not sure. There have been a lot of deleted tweeting involved in this political conflict so just because you can not find it does not mean it did not exist at any time.

https://www.tumblr.com/search/anita sarkeesian

Then why is there no datestamp on the post as there is with regular Tweets? So we can't look through archived pages from a particular point and see whether it ever existed? A Google search for that exact phrase turns up nothing, and you better believe it would have been a huge deal had she ever ACTUALLY posted this. Someone would have mentioned it. So I'm going with "this never actually happened, let's move on to our next outrage; Anita Sarkeesian killed a puppy with her bare hands at a local Applebees." Because if someone says Sarkeesian did something horrible, it must be true; you can't lie on the internet.
 
Neither does this one. And the image is of the exact same type as the other tweeting. Does that mean there is some way to capture a tweet as an image that does not give the timestamp on it? Searching for feminist frequency south park it seems that she does actually write about south park so this tweet does not seem like it is probably fake.

I guess all the white women hunted by the police for sport aren't getting the attention they deserve.

That's really all it is. Tweets are not news anyways.

Come to think about it, probably be worthwhile to check if this was actually tweeted, rather than some other internet troll pasting it together in photoshop. Tweets usually have a date associated with them.
