the most chilling thing about the anita sarkeesian incident (and i’m not sure if this was mentioned and/or emphasized in the articles going around) was that they literally threatened to do a “montreal style massacre” which was, if you don’t know, a man who went into a technical university, asked the men to leave the room, and then killed the women because he believed they were “feminists”.
He also used the name of the shooter (Marc Lepine) and used a lot of the same language. Anita is Canadian, as well, so she’s pretty much guaranteed to have known about the Montreal Massacre (our school flags still fly at half-mast on Dec 6th).
