Cathy Young and the he-man woman-haters club



Cathy Young is apparently followed almost exclusively by men on Twitter. No surprise there.

Cathy Young blocked me on Twitter today because I pointed out what an awful, misogynist human being she is. But of course she couldn't block me without making a big announcement on her Twitter feed so that the mob of misogynists who follow her would get a chance to offer Young their support by making nasty, idiotic and false statements about me.

I suspect this is the kind of thing Cathy Young lives for.

My guess is that Young is hoping they'll go after me much like the mob who went after women like Anita Sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn during GamerGate. Cathy Young supported and encouraged the vicious misogynist mob during GamerGate.

Sorry Cathy, so far the only thing your mob has done is hide behind your blocked thread, in Twitter's safest space for misogynists this side of Quillette.

Reading the comments from Cathy Young's followers gives you a good sense of the idiotic level of discourse you get from misogynist cowards. 

And it's no surprise at all that Young supports the contemptible plutocrat mediocrity Daphne Merkin.

You can enjoy Cathy Young and her mob & their misogynist awfulness after the cut.

I almost never block (generally mute the annoying), but just made an exception for @ngmcclernan. She's obsessed w/critics of progressive ideology & follows them around, smears them as "alt-right" & picks on their tweets, engaging their followers in pointless nasty arguments.

Anybody with more than 30k tweets and fewer than 1k followers is probably a troll.

On the recommendation of @IonaItalia, I blocked her preemptively. She’s in an exclusive club; Saeen is the only other member.

I've been trying for years to snag a creepy internet stalker with little to no success.
Any tips?

Is it bad if I clicked on her page, saw her picture, and chuckled because it's exactly what I expected? Her banner photo is her blocking @QuilletteM. What a brave woman.

i've bumped into this woman a few times over the past year or so.
honestly, & i don't say this lightly, she strikes me as mentally unbalanced. her responses do not always seem rational.
not saying this to be mean.
it is not clever or funny to beat up on mentally ill people.

Now that you mention it, i have refrained from interacting with her because i thought she was displaying legitimate mental illness.

I finally blocked Tariq nasheed or whatever his name is. I can’t stand blatantly racist people. I am pretty close to blocking Matthew sears as well, that self loathing nonsense he espouses is too much for me.

I made the mistake of attempting polite engagement once. She resorted, as do most of her kind, with  "playing the man and not the ball", a standard signal of cognitive dissonance if ever there was one. Maybe she just figured as a shegetz, I must be a nazi. Lol .
