From Donald.win here just letting you guys know. You left the downvote button. Which means you are still not immune to getting brigaded. They will just downvote everything your community wants at the top. Beware.

First of all, "Vivian James" (the redhead) and "Lillian Woods" (the blonde...some debate on whether her name is spelled with a double l or not) are a GamerGate institution. Vivian is our mascot, even her name is a play on "vidya games", while Lillian, a play on "Literally Who?", the term we used for 3 professional victims who tried to make GamerGate all about themselves when it wasn't, was actually created by our opponents as a kind of rebuttal to Vivian....until we noticed that these supposed champions of social justice had just made an aryan palette swap of our girl, embarrassed them with their hypocritical mistake, and appropriated her for ourselves. In our "canon", Vivian and Lillian are cousins and friendly rivals, which is kind of our way of saying "look, we're all gamers, stop treating this internet spat like it's a fight to the death".
So we don't want either of them going anywhere. But we also don't have the same problem TD does with shills and downvote bots. Encountering people who actually seem to be paid shills is fairly rare on KIA, and even on reddit, when we get brigaded it's more your garden variety troll subs who think we said something stupid, and they often UPVOTE the thread they're brigading.
“embarrassed them with their hypocritical mistake, and appropriated her for ourselves.“
I’m about to do what’s called a ‘pro gamer move’
