Atheist vlogger Thunderf00t reports that Jordan Owen, Slade Villena, and Mykeru were "all suspended from twitter for no reason." Jordan Owen is the co-producer of the documentary The Sarkeesian Effect, a critique of the methods of controversial vlogger Anita Sarkeesian. Mykeru is the producer of The Block Bot and the Dumbification of the Beeb, a critique of the BBC Newsnight segment "Talking to the Twitter Trolls and those Who Study them". Slade Villena is a former writer for Gamasutra and the founder of indie game developer Rogue Star Games.
Thunderf00t himself was suspended from Twitter for two weeks in September for unclear reasons. At that time Twitter had also banned the account of "The Camera Lady", the researcher for a video series accusing award-winning developer Phil Fish and the Independent Games Festival of racketeering.

Thunderf00t sounds like yet another over-the-top SIW - Social Injustice Warrior.
Google him and you'll see he's had a hard-on for "feminism" since at least 2012.

Thunderf00t is no better than a member of ISIS. We should doxx him.

Oh the hypocrisy. Isn't getting doxxed exactly what everybody is up in arms about on the other side of the fence?
"Is that really true?" "I just spent the last hour telling you to think for yourself! Didn't you hear anything I said?"

It's OK if one side does it but not the other, that's what equality is all about now. Only the sides have changed.
