Twitch streamer Jason "JasonR" Ruchelski used to play Counter-Strike: Global Offensive professionally but has since moved to Valorant for competitive play. JasonR is known for playing Valorant on Twitch to a large community, but fellow Valorant fan and Twitch ambassador Annie Dro has taken to Twitter to express frustration with his choices. According to Dro, JasonR has avoided over fifty women by pretending his stream keeps crashing and instead of addressing the controversy, he continues to make excuses.
Ninja is one of the initial viral Twitch streamers as he's broken some records in his time on the platform, and he has also gone on the record to discuss his unwillingness to play games with women on stream. Rather than making excuses for his Twitch audience, Ninja has explained how prioritizing male teammates is in an effort to avoid any assumptions fans may have about him and other female streamers. It remains unclear if JasonR is dodging female Valorant players to avoid similar Twitch drama because he's happy with his girlfriend or if his intentions are more nefarious, as he hasn't addressed allegations made against him.
Dudes rock. :heated-gamer-moment:
Women turn around and create their own communities for these games and men throw a fit over "misandry".
That was the brutal fate of /r/TwoXChromosomes. It let dudebros take over and the dudebros never left.
If you want to be instantly Jokerfied, go pretty much anywhere on :reddit-logo: , mention or talk about the systemic pay gap between men and women doing the same work, cultural hostility toward women trying to get STEM educations or get anywhere in STEM careers, or especially the ongoing atrocity of female genital mutilation, and watch how quickly the menz derail it.
Remember when :reddit-logo: said that the rates of women in STEM in the soviet union and post soviet states was because they were forced into it? :michael-laugh:
Wasn't that the NYT that claimed that? Or maybe The Economist, one of those rags.
The Economist. Definitely.
I am 100% certain that that is a thing the Economist did and I have no evidence what so ever to back up my belief.
I've got receipts
Yeah, maybe, I guess it was shared on reddit and made the rounds. Everything blurs together these days lol
I sure do. :agony-shivering:
The only reason that place was taken over is cuz stormfront made it a default when most of the users and the mods were heavily against it. If it was allowed to be its own space, then it could've actually become a half decent place for women there but stormfront just had to go and ruin it.
What happened to TwoXChromosomes ?
The top logical rational gentlesirs of :reddit-logo: invited themselves in the moment that the sub became a part of the front page. They were such zealous "devil's advocates" that they drove everyone else off.
I just went and checked for myself because I don't normally go to that sub. In every single post there are at least a couple "well, actually" and "to be fair..." dudes on the bottom.
And any reasonably popular post has at least one of these guys in the comments (but usually several)

Meanwhile on :reddit-logo: if a feeemale does anything at all, especially if she is visible on camera while presenting something:
"WHAT AN ATTENTION SLUR THIS FEEEMALE MAKES IT ALL ABOUT HERSELF" :wojak-nooo:
