Good thing she didn't try to suggest rape is used as a trivial metaphor in gaming

I like Tina Fey and her basic methods, but bringint money in to it does
sound a bit elitist.

but as someone once said "The word 'tacky' is a euphemism for 'lower class".

It's expected that men would simply deny that gaming is a major source for the reinforcement of rape triviliazation, since not enough people in with political sway have direct experience of that context.
But what would drive Tina Fey crazy is the ease with which men can use existing system rules to suppress the voices of women who even try to talk about it.
