Sadly, gamergate folks and other types of assholes will use this episode as some kind of argument for their cause...

I mean, I kinda get what they were trying to do with this episode, but the people I see in the real world asking for safe spaces and speaking against bullying and harrasing online are not celebrities who can just hire some assistant to make it all go away. It's people who might receive 20 rape threats a day, or get harrased to the point they need to change their home adress. We have laws in the real world against this kind of thing... should we get rid of those too?

Also, the "if you don't like it, get off the internet" argument doesn't hold when you realize the internet is one of the main ways in which we communicate with each other... you need it to get jobs, you need it to keep in touch with family, hell, depending in what part of the world you live, you even need twitter to know if there's a fucking battle going on near your highschool.
