"That women are harassed online is not news. That women in comics and
the broader fandom cultures are harassed online is not news. That these
women are routinely transmitted anonymous messages describing graphic
sexual violence perpetrated upon them for transgressions as grave as not
liking a thing… that is actually news to me, and it’s probably news to a
lot of you guys reading this."

Hear hear.  Please don't support or enable this kind of behaviour.
