British Brainwashing Corporation (BBC) 'Men are raised to hate women'

Thunderf00t: The BBC recently carried a story about how women are particularly harassed online. This was mostly justified by an interview with a woman who stated that 'men are trained to hate women'.


This is just off the wall batshit crazy. You simply cannot sustain such an opinion and still be on planet Earth, and this was the jumping off point for the rest of the story which was about how some guy has written a 'blockbot' to systematically flag peoples twitter accounts.

The story contradicts itself on several important facts. Firstly Paul Mason (the reporter here) states he has never been seriously griefed when talking to a troll, even though only 40 seconds earlier in the story he states that he has many abusers on his twitter feed. Not the best evidence for this being a problem specific to women. Secondly he chooses Rebecca Watson (of Skepchick) as his example of women being harassed online. Rebecca Watson, just so we are clear is one of the biggest professional victims around. Indeed if you look at her list of whats shes actually done, making a fuss about being politely asked out for coffee dominates her list of achievements.

so here is one of the BBC articles impartially titled
'Is there a tech solution for hatred of women?'
