I don’t usually post raw videos from the insufferable assholes I write about on this site because, well, they’re insufferable assholes, and listening to them smugly opine about shit they’re completely ignorant about is generally about as entertaining as, you know, GirlWritesWhat videos. (I know, that’s a bit circular, but I really couldn’t come up with anything more insufferable than that.)
Anyhoo, I’ve broken my rule and posted this video because the two guys who made this video — the would-be filmmaking duo of jordanowen42 and Davis Aurini — are so over-the-top in their insufferable assholism that it’s actually kind of perversely charming.
You see, these two woman-hating YouTube blabbers — the first a belligerent doofus whose apartment is nearly as unkempt as mine, the other a sort of PUA version of Anton LaVey — are pitching what they claim will be an important new documentary exposing the evil “Social Justice Warrior” agenda of evil women and traitor men like Anita Sarkeesian, Zoe Quinn, and, well, I can’t remember the names of any of the men. It’s called The Sarkeesian Effect. And they want your money to fund it.
Their promised “feature-length documentary” will be a powerful work of investigative journalism that will give a voice to the voiceless — to the “silent majority” of, well, angry white dudes who spend whatever time they don’t spend playing video games posting obnoxious and abusive comments about Anita Sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn to YouTube and Reddit and eleven zillion other websites that cater to them.
In other words, this is the loudest “silent majority” I’ve ever run across.
But these are guys who love to pretend that their bold thoughts are being silenced, and PUA Anton LaVey Davis Aurini happily panders to their persecution complex:
Don’t let these people silence us. Your contribution will be a defiant strike against the degeneration and corruption that is going on in this world.
The word “degeneration” helps remind us that Aurini considers himself a part of the neo-Nazi-lite “Dark Enlightenment.”
Anyway, they argue that you should send them lots of money, because PUA Anton LaVey’s suits can’t be cheap you’ll be striking a blow for every dude who’s ever called Anita Sarkeesian a “whore” in a YouTube comment. Well, they don’t literally put it that way, but, you know, come on. That’s what they mean.
And hey, who wouldn’t trust this dude with their hard-earned cash?
I found this video hilarious from start to finish. Stick with it at least until, a little after 6 minutes in, PUA Anton LaVey Aurini lights up his second cigarette, showing what a devil-may-care attitude he has by mumbling his lines with a cigarette in his mouth as he fiddles with his lighter.
Yep, that’s the kind of quality investigative journalism you can expect from these two.
As far as Mai’s animation?

Yanno, as someone who has a pair of boobs, who runs off and on and has done a smattering of martial arts?
There is no way I could spar or run with my hooters flopping around like that, ok?
Those things HURT when gravity kicks in, alright?
…Not that the rest of the game is realistic… But I’m just putting it out there.
(Kinda like her cleavage in that GIF.)
I knew it. I don’t anything about video games but I know plenty about sad misogynist trolls.
From the Wikipedia entry:
Sounds like a sexist and racist colonialist fantasy character to me.
And suddenly, it all makes sense. Anita Sarkeesian is evil for calling this shit out, the two trolls trying to raise $15,000/month to “refute” her (with Ezra Fucking Levant, of all the hilariously awful sources!), and this Sheer Ennui creature coming in to snipe at us for making some well-earned fun of them.
This has got to be the shortest lived effort at trolling yet.
sorry, link no worky…
*Sigh*

On the wikipedia page, please to scroll down.
So your telling me that a character Shirunai uses as his avatar while defending “critics” of Anita Sarkeesian justifies Anita’s videos completely?
Isn’t this like Lewis’s Law? “The comments section on any feminist article justify feminism?”
(…It would make more sense if her boobs were much longer and much stretchier, she could simply beat people up with her breasts, then…)
(TRIPLE BOOB ATTACK! HAI!)
( I think I’m having too much fun with this)
In my dark child-hood of embarassed porn hunting, I recall a story about a woman who had muscles in her boobs and could punch people out with them. I don’t know why. But if that were the case, wouldn’t you still want to keep them close and prevent them from swinging around?
kirbywarp: Sounds about right! (We’ve been getting some incredibly dumb trolls recently, haven’t we?)
I already have a headache so this Shiranui person is making it worse. Good for them! Woody was fun to chuckle at but Shiranui has that….essence of…oh I don’t know, needing to hover and make sure we comment on the dumb shit zie posts and then proceed to condescend to us when we don’t “get” what zie is saying. What’s there to get? You’re annoying. Also, shut up, Woody. I still don’t like you either.
Did they just admit that zir life is video games?
I don’t do video games much, but I’m actually a giant magical panther, who’s continually frustrated by the fact that everyone ignores me when I’m just trying to point out that that thing is not your friend!!!!!!!!
Wait, no. That was last weeks novel series for my downtime. I’m actually a hobbit “burglar”. Thanks a lot, Gandalf; if I make it out of this alive, I’ll be sure to install a dangling chandelier. May you bang your head on it every time you visit.
Why is it always spiders?
Troll? I fear you guys are mistaken. I am no troll.

Shiranui: You do what the first rule of holes is, right?
Shiranui is right. Zie isn’t a troll. It is, in fact, Mai Shiranui. Nice to meet you, Mai! I’m Jaina Proudmoore.
Yeeeeahhh, I’m really not loving this new WordPress update. Also I have no patience for this one, is anyone actually enjoying this one? Because if I wanted to see bullshit videogame boobs, I’d go hang out on EscherGirls and bikiniarmorbattledamage, and I’m starting to wonder at exactly what point continually posting titillating pictures starts breaking the rules, because ugh. Just ugh. I’m feeling skeeved out.
Nice to meet you, Jaina Proudmoore! My groups wizard abandoned us, again and there are a bunch of creepy giant spiders and the dwarves are no use at all…
Would you be willing to help me out with frying a few spiders?
Sincerely,
Bilbo
Poy! Poyu poyyyuuu! Poyo. Poyo poyo poyu!
[Hi! I’m Kirby! The anime version. Nice to meet you.]
Poyooooo. <(- . -)>
[When will you translate the rest of the episodes? It’s been in the works practically forever, and no word! What is this? I demand people put in time and energy to translate a relatively unknown anime so I can consume that work for free. … What?]
Bilbo, you have come to the right place if you’re looking for the arcane. I am considered one of the most powerful mages on Azeroth! I will destroy those horrendous spiders for you, and for the Alliance.
HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Little Troll, you are, in fact MUCH prettier than Lyudmila Pavichenko, but she would kick your ass. You know, if she wasn’t dead, and your “fighter” wasn’t a cartoon drawing.
Hey, at least my feeeeemale fighter was a real person!
This has to be the most pathetic and sad troll ever. How does he imagine posting boobtastic video game images is somehow disproving misogyny in video games? The critical thinking is not strong with this one.
I doubt that much is strong with this one, WWTH. Except, perhaps, the stench.
Poy? Po… POYO! POYO POYO POYUUU!
[Wait, hold up. Episode 72 has been subbed? OH MY GOD MUST WATCH!]
*runs off*
Lady Proudmoore,
That sounds splendid! Many, many thanks for the assistance.
@GrumpyOldNurse: I suspect his sense/delusions of self-importance might be pretty powerful as well.
Hi. I’m
