PayPal, ASMR, and misogyny

2018-09-15 00:42:32.217134+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

Why PayPal’s crackdown on ASMR creators should worry you — Misogyny, weaponized (again).

The thing is though, the men purposely attacking the women making sound-effect videos don't want to just harm them. Read the threads behind this harassment campaign and you'll see that these guys actually want to destroy the women they're harassing. It's a trip into the mind-set of an incel who really wants to kill women, who thinks it's heroic.

And, of course, PayPal is helping them.
