Wario, what’s your opinion about Anita Sarkeesian stealing artwork? cowkitty[.]net/post/78808973663/you-stole-my-artwork-an-open-letter-to-anita

social-justice-wario:

Wario thinks the most important thing in this situation is that Anita reaches out to resolve the situation with the artist privately; which according to the artist, she has contacted her and it working on a resolution. The artist has also stated that she would not like this to turn into a witchhunt, and that she wants discussion of the topic to remain civil. But those updates are being left out by many in favor of a narrative where Anita is a master thief, silently sneaking into museums to steal artwork from purehearted artists for her evil feminist videos.

Wario likes to imagine Anita is used to googling assets and using images with the assumption they are official art and/or liable for Fair Use; not a good assumption to make when you’re making something of a high quality with a sizable budget like Tropes vs Women, but everyone makes mistakes. Hopefully Anita will take greater care in the future to make sure content is fair use.

It’s always a little disappointing to see someone with a controversial message like Anita make a mistake like this, since it will inevitably get blown several orders of magnitude out of proportion and be used to justify the hate against her. If this same situation involved a male content creator with controversial videos about gaming, it would not even register for most people as a blip on their radar.

WAWAWAWAWAAA

Glad to hear that contact has happened and hopeful of a satisfactory resolution for the artist.

Okay, at first, I didn’t like him. The oppressed white male alert klaxon went off in my head, constantly telling myself that I had it just as rough as everyone else, this person should not even be talking, yadda blahblahblahblah

But then, something clicks. Like a switch. And then, late one night, I come to a conclusion.

It’s Wario.

It’s just fucking Wario.

And that’s the best part of the whole thing. The sheer audacity and vulgarity of the portly plumber, but with social justice flavouring. The whole idea, maybe just a misspelling gone wrong, has evolved into one of the most popular blogs on tumblr, and for many a good reason.

SJW is this fucking bullet train of wake-up calls, barrelling into the internet at 120 mph, with no intention of stopping. 

And the reactions! Oh good god. There’s this whole LEGION of people who are dedicated to invent persecution to spite SJW. Nearly an entire subreddit has been filled with endless negative dissections of SJW’s posts. People have made MORE tumblrs for the exact purpose of insulting this one blog. 

And that’s what I love about it. Think about it. Wario (in the games) has lost several times. He’s lost in the intros, matchups, popularity polls, etc. And now it’s Wario’s turn to win. He even says it once a page. It’s almost a story of it’s own.image

TL;DR: Social Justice Wario is the greatest blog on this site.

WAHAAAHAHAHAHA! WARIO THE WINNER!
