I was reading up about Adria Richards, who got the guy fired for making the "big dongle" joke at PyCon 2013.
What I discovered is a total WTF. She's a total hate-monger, opportunist and an outrage-faker (
i.e she tweeted dick jokes herself while at the same conference).
she once tried to derail a feminist run developer seminar she was due to speak at, because one of the talks (by a female dev) on monetization was called "Getting the Money Shot" so Adria started badmouthing the seminar on social media. She didn't contact them or express any concerns, it was straight to social media to raise the pitchforks. When the (female) organizers finally got her to turn up, she used her entire time on stage to lecture the audience about how they were all bad feminists who were supporting porn. Basically a social studies major
talking down to an audience of programmers who were 40% women because of a total bullshit reason. There are other incidents as well where she's tried to derail developer meetings run by women because of supposed sexist things.
To top all that off is the most unbelievable/hypocritical part of all. Only 3 days before the PyCon incident,
she herself tweeted dick jokes with a mate while at that very PyCon, and others on twitter noted that she's made "dongle" jokes herself on twitter. So she's apparently mega-offended if someone sitting behind her is telling the jokes but is laughing along on twitter at the same thing?
How does that even work? And her advice to other females at conferences is to just say "that's not cool" if people say sexist jokes. Which is basically the opposite of what she did herself. Big discrepancy between her professional behaviour and her rhetoric.
... I mean, you don't see Anita Sarkeesian tweeting dick jokes in her spare time then getting upset that a man did it.
She's a professional at getting offended. That's her entire reason for being at those conferences. She gave a HUGE smile to the guy she doxxed when she photo'd him. For her, that was the money-shot of the entire conference, which she was waiting for while tweeting
her own dick jokes.
