so are trans-asians the face of SJW? when someone calls a dude a SJW for saying "hey that art is kind of gross and bad" is he secretly saying that the dude wants to be a japanese programmer?

then which group is the face of SJW? There's a lot of dumb groups with stupid beliefs they hold specifically to get away from being a boring well-off person on the internet with no hobbies, are gamers SJW? they say stupid poo poo and have the stupid belief of videogames being a real hobby

What is SJW's representative face, when someone is accused of being a SJW for saying "hey that boobplate is kind of stupid" which group are they being attributed to?
How did you pass any college level course that involved analysis of anything written? What was repeatedly hinted at in no less than two responses to your initial confusion (which wasn't even justified in the first place) was that I was using a thing called an example, a subset of an overall topic that is easy to understand and generally provides the gist or concept of the topic even if it doesn't cover literally every possibility.

Just because she produces simplistic, freshmen-level feminist analysis of video games doesn't mean that

1) her premise isn't flawed
2) her analysis isn't flawed
3) she is immune from criticism

Sarkeesian literally argues that Mario is sexist because the point of the game is to rescue a mushroom in a dress from a fire breathing lizard. Even if everything she says is true, its still a stupid, petty and pointless subject to hang your hat on.

yeah why doesnt she do something else instead of her whole life's work being a youtube series on video games

To give an example, everyone I know, minority or not, who agrees with Femfreq in even the most basic way has been dismissed as a SJW a ton of times.

Anita Sarkeesian is a genius. Not for her videos. Those could be accomplished by spending a weekend searching TV Tropes for examples and then injecting anything you find with basic feminist theory, be it intellectually valid or not.

No, she is a genius for exploiting people for money. 160k for a blue-screen background, stolen YouTube footage and C+/B- Freshman Philosophy papers as a script. And she takes forever to come out with videos for some reason. Whether her intentions or not, it allows her to milk people out of even more money. This is poo poo people do on YouTube for free. And at the end of the day, her videos are really inoffensive. Some gamers collectively lost their poo poo over this, naturally, and attacked her with some heinous poo poo.

And all the harassment she gets naturally makes her bulletproof to criticism (legit or not) because her supporters can claim 'if you critique Anita, you're a misogynist and mansplaining, you cis-het white fascist gently caress!'. It also gives her more cash by making people feel like they are fighting for equality and against the patriarchy by supporting her. It is perfect gig.

As someone who literally has sex with men I will pretend to find your subtle hint that anal sex is a negative consequence for my actions offensive and instantly leap to assuming you're an unrepentant homophobe.

Now pretend I actually did that and you might be able to empathize with "the other side". If it helps I do literally have anal sex with men.

Retsupurae is openly billed as a thing that makes fun of other people's lets plays. Anita got 160 thousand dollars in a kickstarter where she said she'd be playing the games then just took footage from other people and frequently misquoted ingame lore to the point it was obvious she didn't play it, but never actually credited or mentioned she didn't play the game. I honestly think it's kind of a dumb side point to make (because you don't really need to play the games to note the jiggle physics are over the topc), but it's far less irrational or hypocritical than you're making it out to be.
