When it comes to questioning the death threats/severe twitter harassment (not just criticism of the work) against Sarkeesian and Wu...
I think it is ok and even good to try to find out who is sending them, but to call into question the woman as false flagging or highly overplaying them who have to be extremely careful before you go down that path. You better have enough evidence that it would be like betting half of your assets on a horserace.
Anyone flippantly challenging that the death threats are false flags done with tacit knowledge of these women or their supporters may be right (I give it a fleetingly low chance) but the down side of being wrong on it is terrible. What the fuck is going on with Thunderf00t?
