Just ask us gamers we’ve witnessed sexual and racial abuse ever since 12-year olds discovered Halo 2 and high-speed internet connections. It’s not the first time this vehement woman-hating has polluted new media, and it won’t be the last (although a cartoon about an angry scientist and his wet-dreaming sidekick would be a hell of a hill to die on). Besides J.K Rowling, or Jane Austen, or Virginia Woolf, or Mary Shelley, or Emily Bronté, or Harper Lee, or Agatha Christie, or Stephanie Meyer, or Björk, or Amanda Palmer, or Billie Holiday or… what have women ever done to provoke and entertain the masses? She deserved it, of course after all, she was a woman, and there’s no place for them in the entertainment industry. I woke up last week to read that Dan Harmon, one of the creative forces behind the excellent Rick and Morty, had publicly denounced a number of the show’s fans after they had launched a hate campaign against one of the show’s writers.
