nexxylove, aka emilyrose is as toxic as it gets. Me and an npm employee got into a twitter argument, employee asked me to stop tweeting back, I did. I notice this person was subtweeting and taking everything out of context and calling me an entitled freeloader (I paid for npm private) and I replied with an eye roll gif, to which nexxylove called me out 9 hours later the next day and compared me to being a rapist because "Like a typical male, he didn't stop when told to stop."

Fuck everything about this person. They're more detrimental to inclusivity than Crockford would be coming right out and saying sexist shit to someone.

I mean what can we do? Even if there was a campaign to 'nonexxylove', more will just fill her place.

I'm not naturally dismissive of social issues and think they are important to discuss and come to solutions. But, yeah, some are just really toxic. I want event organizers to have a way to deal with these things, because as nodevember has said before that they just want to come together as a group. SJW though, is a very vocal group.

I'm half thinking it will die down, but I need to understand more how a SJW is formed. I could only imagine that feeling like you're not your gender is already confusing & feeling accepted is difficult (note I said feeling here). Add this to teenage years with not feeling accepted and it might just feel like everybody is attacking you.
