I am a woman, and I play games because I find them fun. I’ve loved games from the first time I loaded up Tinkerbell on my Nintendo DS. I could care less if the main character looks like me, as long as they are an enjoyable character and well written. Right now, I love Ghost of Tsushima, but I’m not a samurai. I love Reinhardt from Overwatch, but I am definitely not a sixty-five year German man in a metal suit. I love his cool Grandpa energy. Keep this woman away from video games.
Over all my personal opinion (i might be wrong of course) is that SANE GAMERS don't care about representation and so on either way. They care about good games, good characters, good writing etc. I can give 4 great game examples. Firstly Black Myth: Wukong. i have unfortunately not felt comfortable spending the money for it yet (student and so on) but it looks great and people don't care that like diversity etc is missing since the game is good. Second same thing goes for space marine 2. I have heard so many good things about this game its insane. Apparently the Adeptus Astarte in the game feel SO nice. And again its missing all of the random bullshit, but its just a great game so its doing well. Even if I don't have the game (again same reasons) its still getting me to read and learn about the warhammer 40k universe just in case i end up actually buying it. The game sounds so fun (and admittedly the 40k lore is very amm how should i put it.... i guess interesting works well enough). Third in my opinion the best example. Well maybe is Baldur's gate 3. Last years game of the year. It does have some of the pro woke agenda messaging and I have seen some people not recommend the game for that. (for example in act 2 you meet 2 female characters that are in a relationship.) But again NOBODY CARES. The game is good. All of the characters are good. like the 2 i mentioned before... well neither of them is a "checkbox" character. One is the daughter of one of the major deities and the other one is the daughter of the big bad of act 2. Like yes they have a relationship. But it does not feel forced or a checkmark of "gotta include this too" type situation. And it works fine with the story. So while the game includes woke agenda somewhat. its not forced/showed down your throat. Not to mention that if you want you can as far as I know kill either OR both of them just for fun. Lastly as example here: Concord. I don't think I have to say too much. THOUGH I will admit that I don't think it was ONLY the going woke going broke reason that killed that game. Well that fast anyways. But even still it was a massive reason. Using myself as an example I'm a "bit" bigger guy and as a tekken player i always hated Bob. Jeh he is supposed to be the big fat guy who can still fight. ok so what? His move list was boring as hell so why would I play him. Not to mention the fact that I'm already a bit bigger guy IRL, why on earth would I want to be that ingame as well. I am not saying all of the overweight characters are bad and so on. Only the fact that that specifically wont be the reason WHY I would play a character, and more likely it would be a reason to skip a character like that. So TLDR. Gamers don't care about representation. Only the "modern audiences" care about that.... all 1000 of them. I'm guessing that from the concords active peak player count of 667 on PC. Meanwhile good games sell MILLIONS of copies.
We need more girls like you to drive the message in. I will be honest, i play as sexy characters but that's a subjective definition anyway... When it comes to male characters i play as, they're super cool like Reinhardt or demons like Akuma, Devil Jin etc. I don't understand why these people need self inserts everywhere!
they brought her back bc they were losing, but since our voice is starting to get louder and the money involved is MUCH MUCH MORE bigger then her fall will come sooner than we think and remember kids: money talks louder than any language
Will never wrap my head around the moment Neil Druckmann, between LOU1 and LOU2.. There's an interview of him stating he read Anita's "book", and it completely changed his outlook on life as well as game design. It's such a surreal piece of media showcasing how weak minded a person can be and how much influence it can have over not only a sequel.. But a slew of *game devs* for the decade to come.
I remember that. I actually did a video on it years ago. Neil's a bit weird to me. He did so many stupid interviews and said so many dumb things in the lead up to TLOU2.
It's quite clear that for Anita it's not about pushing social justice and helping to alleviate toxicity in online spaces, it's all about furthering her career and keeping herself in the limelight , and with the documented history of her being very disingenuous I simply cannot support her or what she says
You remember when they used to strike out against games way back in the day? Like Mortal Kombat being to violent. It didnt go away, first it was push back against the gaming industry from the outside, not they have infiltrated and it from the inside.
The only thing she might succeed in doing is taking away resources from a big corporation, putting thousands of women out of work for the sake of her own grift. ❤️
She really came back when “politically corrected” games were starting to fucking tank. I put serious money down the top main reason why she came back was because how terrible Concord was.
Yup. She saw an opportunity and she tried to take it. This'll likely be her last hoorah. Gamers are more aware of who she is now. They'll likely shut that shit down immediately.
@@RealMikeHollow I don’t like this at all. A snake is at its most dangerous when backed into a corner and I mean that in every bad way possible. I feel like she’s going to go full on Andrew Ryan without the epicness and cause massive amount of self destructing game studios. I damn near chipped teeth from how hard I cringed when she put up “I can begin engagement with you at any point in your development cycle.” like I couldn’t believe that shit. Imagine her trying to infiltrate DBZ S0 😂
Concord was a very inclusive and diverse project and it became the biggest flop in the history of gaming and especially Sony’s. Just straight up 400 mil into the trash and a massive hit to PlayStation reputation. Meanwhile IGN gives The Penguin series a 5 and that MCU show about Agatha an 8.
The problem isn’t including different people in a field. That’s good because of societal norms stopping them from having prior opportunities. The problem is not adding them on top of existing talent. End of the day, it comes down to corporate greed (as always). It’s never for a good cause. It’s always performative.
fucking rofl. I remember many moons ago we watched her videos purely out of shock how anyone can have SO MANY terrible opinions about ALL the games. NO one i know or just had loosely contact with liked anything what she ever said-
With the way concord catastrophically crumbled into oblivion it’s give me hope that more of these games made by these narrow minded devs will continue to fail to the point where enough is enough and the balance will be tipped slowly to the correct side of the scale for us normal gamers
God, I miss Alpha. As for Ani Sarkenian, I wasn't super on the internet on paying attention to all this stuff back in the day, but I did see her name thrown around and I think Alpha was like the first real person I saw talking about her and calling her out. Back then, I just figured she was some lying, clout chasing asshole and everyone would just point and laugh and go about their business. It's actually insane just how much damage she's done. In hindsight, it's also not hard to see how she was able to weasel her way into the industry so easily. Corporate greed and a bunch of dudes desperate for mainstream acceptance, validation, and attention
The tyrant's back, she has been summoned once again 💀 But seriously, I can't believe how devs could even listen to her in the first place, it's delusional. I hope Concord sends a message, even though it's unlikely. Keep this away from our games, please. We just want to have fun.
I'm a new developer working on a fighting game, Anita doesn't care about diverse aspects being put into games more naturally. If she cared about introducing certain things more slowly than forcefully than shaming cultures she's clueless about, then she'd probably be more welcome. But she's not, she's returning at very critical time where developers are either losing studios or pushing back against the tactics she's tried to put a stranglehold onto the industry for years now, and the only reason she's doing it is because rent is due. She needs money to keep fueling her operation for her own needs, there are women that play games to have fun with games.
I haven't even seen the video but I have to say, I love Anita SO MUCH, thanks to her I stopped being a doormat and started believeing in my convictions so much more because she was the first person so full of shit that I just felt like an idiot when I started following my usual instinct of just backing down when she started gabbing her yap cuz I really couldn't see a way where she wasn't just a lying douche instead of the 'He/she knows better than me' that I usually thought of everyone.
As an Anita Sarkeesian fan I'm very happy we hear from her again because I was worried she lost steam after the Gamergate backlash. That being said for gamers it is absolute hell because you know she will push the feminist narrative and turn all our favorite female characters into lesbians. For me it's a double edged sword, I don't want my games being ruined but this whole back and forth between gamers and activists is very entertaining. Now Arkeesian is back and it seems that the forces of evil have brought back on of their most fearsome generals.
Remember when ppl used to say "Don't bother with us, we seek the best for all and we won't come after your playthings."? Pepperidge Farm remembers. Now memes apart, your sis spoke the truth, Mike. If ppl buy it, there's a market to grow. If they don't, maybe they should seek something else. Those that persist on the mistake, by the looks of it, seek not the profit, but to promote their viewpoint. Games used to be an escapism from the harsh reality, and now those tourists seek to bleed the irl politics they promote unto another hobby they didn't twist fully yet. Comics, TV Shows, Movies, and now Games. Quite frankly, it's tiring on one side. On the other, you're right. Voting with our wallets it's our best answer to this scenario. If she, or others, come to judge us for our vote, it's their fault for being unable to acknowledge they can be wrong.
We used to have people that tested games to see if they were well made and ready for the audience. They were called game testers and most of the time the system worked.
To be fair, as a gamer I too have been disliking games more and more just like her lately- OH WAIT maybe it’s what someone like Anita has been pushing that I don’t like
You know, the small bit of hope in all of this is that Anita is already exposed as being a grifter and a lot of people have gotten wise to her. Given that gaming is having a turn around it's clear that she's coming back just to nip this in the bud.
Haven’t heard about her in so long I thought we finally got rid of her. The best thing she’s done is provide a ton of comedy with how little she understands games and men
Sadly I' m sure she will find work, cause she installed most of the current regimes in the established studios, for example she personally reorganized Bioware and has a huge following at Blizard, Santa Monica, Naughty Dog etc. Most current day activist inside the gaming studios or third parties like Belair are her (direct) offspring. And with eople like Barlog, Miller, Druckman etc all worship her, I'm sure somebody will take her. And wouldn't be surprised to see other Third Wavers of the first and second hour, like Quinn, Wu, Mags etc returning. I know most modern day gamers like to focus on SBI, but it's the people inside the studios who are the biggest problem.
Ah yes, the start of it all. This woman singlehandedly did more damage to the gaming industry than anyone else ever could and all through Social Justice Warrior shaming tactics. Didn't matter how wrong she was, didn't matter that Gamergate was LITERALLY about not giving people like her power, the gaming industry heard what she was saying and thought there might have been potential dollar signs if they leaned into all the progressive crap. Because at the end of the day, games at a Triple-A level are not dictated by the fans or even the devs. They are dictated by investors. And the moment a bunch of corporate big wigs become convinced that the winning move is to make things as insufferably woke as possible with gameplay elements that no longer focus on gameplay but instead focus on delivering the LORE about these woke characters, it's pretty much over. For the record, we see this all the time. Investors and devs treated ESG and DEI like a popular fad that was never going to lose its steam. They treated it the same way they treated Resident Evil devs after RE4 (OG) thinking "Horror doesn't sell" and "Action horror is where the money is" which directly led to RE5 and RE6 for better or worse, only to then lean back INTO Horror with RE7 after the P.T. Demo came out. Same reason Shooters, MOBAs and Battle Royales all experienced extremely obnoxious "obsession" periods from the industry. Anite Sarkeesian represent the worst element of gaming culture: out of touch narcissists who think they know better than the customer. Seeing she is still involved is like seeing a vampire rising out of its coffin.
I have no heart for this Anita if she trying turn games into upside down once again sorry if she thinks we are haters to her. Tell herself to step away from game just go away and never comeback. She is nobody
Haha yeah, Alpha put so many people on. It's a shame he's been gone for so long. Would be good to see him make a come back. I used to watch all of his stuff.
@@RealMikeHollow Yeah, man is a legend! I still remember his intro and outro to this day. He is one of the reasons I started listening to more metal music lol
This is the one who Influenced Niel Drunkman so much that it ruined TLOU part 2 for me... I was so into that Game, the only reason I bought PS4. This Woke people are like a plague.
Y’all wanna know how you can defeat Anita? Stop giving her coverage. Ignore her. Don’t pay her any attention. Let her fade into irrelevancy. Unfortunately the same can’t be said for big gaming corporations. Some of them unfortunately will cave to her demands because they don’t wanna get in trouble with far-left ideologues on social media. But we aren’t emboldened to a particular company. We have to make sure these activists don’t squeeze their way into our entertainment again. “I would like to play video games but I don’t want to go around shooting people or ripping their heads off”. Hey Anita, you are aware that there are tons of other games that don’t do the exact thing that you’re talking about. I mean you yourself mentioned Super Mario. As far as I’m concerned Mario games never got that violent.
why talk about these devils? they have nothing to say and their perspective is clearly is not valuable. they have contributed to the modern entitlement and hostility the mainstream women had towards male culture. the video game industry is doomed, the parts that have the woke and women en mass are already overrun. all you have to do is make a game hostile enough for women to avoid it as a whole... this is done by making games for gamers, making attractive portrayals of women as they were traditionally idealized to be, and actually having stories that don't baby the player and expect the player to actually use their brain to understand the plot or the gameplay. the greatest enemy of women is depth and appeal towards men. edit: seeing devolver digital on that list hurts way more than Ubisoft , devolver digital were creators of some really good games, the fact that they support misandry is depressing.
@@necrosteel5013 the reason we talk about them is to make those unaware of what's going on aware. There's a lot of new gamers who aren't aware of who she is and I think it's good to make them aware of what she has done and what she may do.
@@RealMikeHollow brother, are you sure new guys are even here to begin with? I reckon those folks would be mostly invested in things outside of gaming to ever reach all the way here.
@@RealMikeHollow no like i think her donors tried to take her to court if im not mistaken and she ninja vanished like tatsu in the tgri lab in tmnt 2 it was either her im thinking of or one of her copycats at the time. i just remember it being a huge irony and exposed them
Idc about any of this, if i like a game i buy idgaf who made it or who consulted on it, i don't even care what the ppl who makes them do in their personal lives( good or bad)
I'm not aware of scamming or lies that the Act Man has told. I didn't promote anything besides the video he made on this situation many years ago which is still a great video.
13:27 "If you have a fruit salad that is entirely strawberries, the way to fix it is to add some blue berries, watermelon, and tangerine." Excuse me? I'll gladly take my fruit salad of entirely strawberries because I am allergic to watermelon and tangerine. That quote is the perfect summation of culture warriors. They're pushing for diversity because they think it's a necessary fix. Like that example, there is nothing wrong with a fruit salad full of strawberries. What if you're like me and you're allergic to watermelon and tangerine? Adding those fruits in will make me sick thus creating more problems than adding them solved. These people don't understand that their short term fix is creating long term problems that will be harder to fix by "adding more diversity".
2:34 This part makes me angry because it reduces games to shooting people. There are so many genres of games and most certainly games for her if she really wanted to. Plus she didn't mind playing Assassin's Creed Syndicate where one of the main activities of the player is to stick a blade into someone else's body.gross
She's why gaming went down the shitter, no one should listen to her in the industry especially with her record of destroying companies, Anita is the school kid who's all nerdy and thinks they like video games trying to fit in with the crowd but ends up ruining it and got everyone to hate them, she's an activist not a gamer, like can't we just leave reality out of our video games? Is that so hard?
One thing I do slightly agree with Anita on is the dislike for overly violent video games. I’m not a big fan of them, I don’t play them. Doesn’t mean that the people who do should also stop playing them. It’s a classic case of “you don’t like, then don’t partake in it”. Other than that, Big Props for mentioning AlphaOmegaSin. I miss that dude his content was great
As a guy who grew up traumatised, I thank you for saying I don't need to go to therapy. If I could just get real with you, don't wanna go into too much detail but this year has been my worst since 2015. Thanks for getting it, I just want a small circle of people who will always be there for me no matter what & can always rely on when I need them, & just a female that I can talk to, doesn't even have to be a wife or girfriend, can even just be a family member like a sister!
I am a woman, and I play games because I find them fun. I’ve loved games from the first time I loaded up Tinkerbell on my Nintendo DS. I could care less if the main character looks like me, as long as they are an enjoyable character and well written. Right now, I love Ghost of Tsushima, but I’m not a samurai.
I love Reinhardt from Overwatch, but I am definitely not a sixty-five year German man in a metal suit. I love his cool Grandpa energy.
Keep this woman away from video games.

"THIS IS MY FINAL FORM, KAKAROT" - becomes even more full of herself.
Heat as soon as the video starts lol
WE WASTE NO TIME 🗣️🗣️🗣️
We used to have people that tested games to see if they were well made and ready for the audience. They were called game testers and most of the time the system worked.
To be fair, as a gamer I too have been disliking games more and more just like her lately- OH WAIT maybe it’s what someone like Anita has been pushing that I don’t like
Aaaa yes anida the lady that made millions of a non profit and didn't think nore care to pay her implies
You know, the small bit of hope in all of this is that Anita is already exposed as being a grifter and a lot of people have gotten wise to her. Given that gaming is having a turn around it's clear that she's coming back just to nip this in the bud.
What fresh hell is this?
By the pricking of my thumb, something wicked this way comes...
Haven’t heard about her in so long I thought we finally got rid of her. The best thing she’s done is provide a ton of comedy with how little she understands games and men
4:50 wow Mike you too soft on her lol
RUclips guidelines 😂
im hating the lass already!
Sadly I' m sure she will find work, cause she installed most of the current regimes in the established studios, for example she personally reorganized Bioware and has a huge following at Blizard, Santa Monica, Naughty Dog etc. Most current day activist inside the gaming studios or third parties like Belair are her (direct) offspring. And with eople like Barlog, Miller, Druckman etc all worship her, I'm sure somebody will take her. And wouldn't be surprised to see other Third Wavers of the first and second hour, like Quinn, Wu, Mags etc returning. I know most modern day gamers like to focus on SBI, but it's the people inside the studios who are the biggest problem.
Ah yes, the start of it all.
This woman singlehandedly did more damage to the gaming industry than anyone else ever could and all through Social Justice Warrior shaming tactics. Didn't matter how wrong she was, didn't matter that Gamergate was LITERALLY about not giving people like her power, the gaming industry heard what she was saying and thought there might have been potential dollar signs if they leaned into all the progressive crap.
Because at the end of the day, games at a Triple-A level are not dictated by the fans or even the devs. They are dictated by investors. And the moment a bunch of corporate big wigs become convinced that the winning move is to make things as insufferably woke as possible with gameplay elements that no longer focus on gameplay but instead focus on delivering the LORE about these woke characters, it's pretty much over.
For the record, we see this all the time.
Investors and devs treated ESG and DEI like a popular fad that was never going to lose its steam. They treated it the same way they treated Resident Evil devs after RE4 (OG) thinking "Horror doesn't sell" and "Action horror is where the money is" which directly led to RE5 and RE6 for better or worse, only to then lean back INTO Horror with RE7 after the P.T. Demo came out. Same reason Shooters, MOBAs and Battle Royales all experienced extremely obnoxious "obsession" periods from the industry.
Anite Sarkeesian represent the worst element of gaming culture: out of touch narcissists who think they know better than the customer. Seeing she is still involved is like seeing a vampire rising out of its coffin.
..Anita is back..gamergate is back…but do you know who has yet to come back? Vivian James, she needs to return
Anita Sarkeesian? I thought she was in Game Over land?
I haven’t heard her name in ages.
She had one more life left and she plans using it 🗿
USING THE NAME OF A TNA WRESTLING LEGEND LIKE JIMMY WANG YANG IN REGARDS TO HER IS FOUL
First TLOU2, then Saints Row Deboot. What's next for her to ruin? Wukong 2!? Stellar Blade 2!?
Thank you for calling this out 👏 👏 👏
No problem, bro ☝🏾
My favorite GAME as of now love SPACE MARINE 2. Keep us informed about ppl like this Mike so where she go i want support that business
I'll stay on top of her tomfoolery going forward 🗿
The witch is back
I have no heart for this Anita if she trying turn games into upside down once again sorry if she thinks we are haters to her. Tell herself to step away from game just go away and never comeback. She is nobody
Gamers are much more aware of her existence now so anything she works on, people will know.
@@RealMikeHollow true man. I'm glad I'm on your side all the time.
I thought this woman was no longer relevant.
She was quietly in Friezas healing pod.
Space Marine 2 looks kinda sick.
Well worth the purchase dude.
is it bad she reminds me facially of Rebecca Ford, the fun DE Project Lead for Warframe? Though at least Rebecca is fun and popular
16:18 BRO, ALPHAOMEGASIN?! I USED TO WATCH THIS GUY ALL THE TIME IN MIDDLE SCHOOL LMAO HES THE REASON I FOUND OUT ABOUT THIS WHOLE SITUATION
Haha yeah, Alpha put so many people on. It's a shame he's been gone for so long. Would be good to see him make a come back. I used to watch all of his stuff.
@@RealMikeHollow Yeah, man is a legend! I still remember his intro and outro to this day. He is one of the reasons I started listening to more metal music lol
I 100% understand
Admitted in 480p took me out
How tf you making this after the drinking stream😂
I had it in the oven 😂 I'm in bed almost K.O'd.
Shout out to AOS much love
This is the one who Influenced Niel Drunkman so much that it ruined TLOU part 2 for me... I was so into that Game, the only reason I bought PS4. This Woke people are like a plague.
I'll never forgive them for what they did to Joel 😭
Actually, Niel wanted to kill off Joel since part one but the higher ups wouldn't let him.
For once the higher ups had more sense.
Y’all wanna know how you can defeat Anita? Stop giving her coverage. Ignore her. Don’t pay her any attention. Let her fade into irrelevancy. Unfortunately the same can’t be said for big gaming corporations. Some of them unfortunately will cave to her demands because they don’t wanna get in trouble with far-left ideologues on social media. But we aren’t emboldened to a particular company. We have to make sure these activists don’t squeeze their way into our entertainment again.
“I would like to play video games but I don’t want to go around shooting people or ripping their heads off”.
Hey Anita, you are aware that there are tons of other games that don’t do the exact thing that you’re talking about. I mean you yourself mentioned Super Mario. As far as I’m concerned Mario games never got that violent.
Brotherhood and sister hood don't exist that all gay
Stand down, soldier 🗿
@@RealMikeHollow keep coping bro
Man said 480p
Oh great, she's back. Hooray.
Someone must have used a Phoenix Down 🗿
why talk about these devils?
they have nothing to say and their perspective is clearly is not valuable.
they have contributed to the modern entitlement and hostility the mainstream women had towards male culture.
the video game industry is doomed, the parts that have the woke and women en mass are already overrun. all you have to do is make a game hostile enough for women to avoid it as a whole... this is done by making games for gamers, making attractive portrayals of women as they were traditionally idealized to be, and actually having stories that don't baby the player and expect the player to actually use their brain to understand the plot or the gameplay. the greatest enemy of women is depth and appeal towards men.
edit: seeing devolver digital on that list hurts way more than Ubisoft , devolver digital were creators of some really good games, the fact that they support misandry is depressing.
@@necrosteel5013 the reason we talk about them is to make those unaware of what's going on aware. There's a lot of new gamers who aren't aware of who she is and I think it's good to make them aware of what she has done and what she may do.
@@RealMikeHollow brother, are you sure new guys are even here to begin with?
I reckon those folks would be mostly invested in things outside of gaming to ever reach all the way here.
Anita Narci-zean
Is warhammer a good game?
It's very good. Very addictive.
didnt she disappear i the first place because she ran off with a bunch of her donor money?
That or her channel and overall grift just dried up.
@@RealMikeHollow no like i think her donors tried to take her to court if im not mistaken and she ninja vanished like tatsu in the tgri lab in tmnt 2
it was either her im thinking of or one of her copycats at the time. i just remember it being a huge irony and exposed them
Kudos for you to waste no time as always
Idc about any of this, if i like a game i buy idgaf who made it or who consulted on it, i don't even care what the ppl who makes them do in their personal lives( good or bad)
U lost me by promoting the ACTMAN, the scammer & liar sellout.
I'm not aware of scamming or lies that the Act Man has told. I didn't promote anything besides the video he made on this situation many years ago which is still a great video.
13:27 "If you have a fruit salad that is entirely strawberries, the way to fix it is to add some blue berries, watermelon, and tangerine."
Excuse me? I'll gladly take my fruit salad of entirely strawberries because I am allergic to watermelon and tangerine.
That quote is the perfect summation of culture warriors. They're pushing for diversity because they think it's a necessary fix. Like that example, there is nothing wrong with a fruit salad full of strawberries. What if you're like me and you're allergic to watermelon and tangerine? Adding those fruits in will make me sick thus creating more problems than adding them solved. These people don't understand that their short term fix is creating long term problems that will be harder to fix by "adding more diversity".
9:10 Bro's is a true space marine.
@@renelopez3547 FOR THE EMPEROR ⚔️
2:34 This part makes me angry because it reduces games to shooting people. There are so many genres of games and most certainly games for her if she really wanted to. Plus she didn't mind playing Assassin's Creed Syndicate where one of the main activities of the player is to stick a blade into someone else's body.gross
20:40 too true
19:00 never watched star wars but I heard the "rogue one" movie was great apparently
She's why gaming went down the shitter, no one should listen to her in the industry especially with her record of destroying companies, Anita is the school kid who's all nerdy and thinks they like video games trying to fit in with the crowd but ends up ruining it and got everyone to hate them, she's an activist not a gamer, like can't we just leave reality out of our video games? Is that so hard?
She wants that salary and she's gonna do anything to get it 🗿
@@RealMikeHollowso we've heard 😏
She’s like that one nerd kid who always remind the teacher if there’s homework. Nobody likes her cause she ruined every single thing
That kid was the bane of our existence in school.
Palpatine has returned!?
😂😂
Just her throwing buzzwords into everything she says is cringe.
Her and Zoey Quinn single handedly destroyed gaming.
look at a picture of me at 10 playing dominoes. I played dominoes for a while (but actually I don't play dominoes but I have a picture, I can pretend)
Anita is like Beetlejuice. You can’t say her name 3 times or else she shows up
One thing I do slightly agree with Anita on is the dislike for overly violent video games. I’m not a big fan of them, I don’t play them. Doesn’t mean that the people who do should also stop playing them. It’s a classic case of “you don’t like, then don’t partake in it”. Other than that, Big Props for mentioning AlphaOmegaSin. I miss that dude his content was great
As a guy who grew up traumatised, I thank you for saying I don't need to go to therapy. If I could just get real with you, don't wanna go into too much detail but this year has been my worst since 2015. Thanks for getting it, I just want a small circle of people who will always be there for me no matter what & can always rely on when I need them, & just a female that I can talk to, doesn't even have to be a wife or girfriend, can even just be a family member like a sister!
480p?! I thought it was 140P. Damn dude.
It truly is gamergate 2 because she came back l, why cant we get past this
The leeches won't stop leeching.
