because self-examination is hard

this came up on my facebook feed:
Why are you so angry?

i don't normally sit down and watch a series of 6 videos on YouTube, but it was really helpful to me - not only in trying to understand a friend of a friend running at the mouth, but in understanding what happened with the Hugos. the segment about the two groups involved in gamergate and their relationship will sound hauntingly familiar. the guy says he's trying to talk to middle-class straight cis white dudes, but he also helps explain their crazypants behavior to me (without saying crazypants).

i am sad that it looks like the person who brought it to my attention deleted it, perhaps out of self-preservation.

i recommend the videos.
