The response to a man who posted a post of AGREEMENT for biting beaver pretty much said ‘not all men are like this’ but then he was accosted for not doing anything to fight the patriarchy. But are not woman accused of the same crime? Some femists just go overboard to the point of sexism.

That said, all the websites that have been blasted and shut down….not fair, not good.

And in poor, poor taste.

So in short i must say i agree that this was overall bad. If they disagreed so much, they should have taken a different coarse of action then this, innocent website have been crashed because of this. If they hate BitingBeaver so bad, they should not have taken other websites down as well.

Horrible.

Quiet women never made history and too many loud males have made too much history.

Peace

Sheelzebub at Pinko Feminist Hellcat is talking about the latest incidences of trolls and hatemongers harassing feminist bloggers. Feministe is one blog under attack. The attack was so bad that some blogs temporarily shut down. I used to get trolled…

The precise resources used are explained on their sites, if you can stomach them long enough to find the details.

If you ever mention anything concrete about yourself, no matter how obscure, then sooner or later there will be enough out there to pinpoint you, and what’s more since you were the one who released the information needed to figure this out you have absolutely no genuine legal recourse. It would probably get to court, but a half decent lawyer could easily kick out the claim.

If you have indeed identified their site, the FBI tends to take a somewhat dimmer view of your complaints of threats of violence given that the header on the primary board reads:
The stories and information posted here are artistic works of fiction and falsehood.
Only a fool would take anything posted here as fact.
-an ethos which given the content of the posts is clearly extended to dealings with other sites.

These are predominantly university age students or older professionals. This can be evidenced by the demographic observed at panels they have held at conventions, although only a fraction of their sites user bases ever attend. The idea that these are just 13 year old kids is generally down to the flawed logic, poor spelling and the like when they contact you, however any serious analysis of their boards (not something I would recommend) makes it clear that this is wholly deliberate, designed to inflame their target rather than an indication of their intelligence.

In fact, if you like internet humor and are easily offended then I _heavily_ advise you not to visit their sites. Like it or not, most internet humor originated in or close to their sites – the ‘lolcats’ so popular as of the last year and a bit were a regular feature there years before they entered the mainstreams’ attached files list – and seeing these places would probably color your ability to enjoy internet jokes in future to a certain extent.

A number of the comments here were written by the attackers.

A number of these were responded to as serious by posters who almost in the same breath derided the attackers as universally imbecilic. The clues are there, and I don’t mean the obvious ones.

In Canada I just phoned the RCMP and they tracked them down and had the local police go to the offending people’s houses and tell them it’s either stop or be arrested.

It’s really very simple actually. Good luck.
