The point of pointing out misogyny isn’t to make people feel bad, but to say, “Hey, please don’t do that again. It really sucks for me.” We’re trying to help you out of your ignorance, so you don’t accidentally step on the same toes twice. We’d like an apology, and some assurance that things will improve. The worst answer you can give is, “I didn’t see the problem, and I don’t care about learning how to see the problem, [so you will just have to deal with the problem or leave].”
You can choose to ignore misogyny. People who are affected by it cannot. And a moderator should be interested in protecting affected populations. So, “clueless fools,”: Listen, Apologize, Learn, and Do Better in the Future. Maybe follow some female bloggers/twitters/whatever who talk about issues like #GamerGate so you can learn and be a better-informed ally from the start.
And for the record, any post here where women patiently, pleasantly, thoroughly explain these things is a courtesy to you. Those posts are saving you the time of looking it up, thinking about it for yourself, or having to deal with it enough on a daily basis to get it on a personal level. It’s way, way, way,way, way easier for women to just turn around say “Fuck it - I am not dealing with this exhausting shit in yet ANOTHER place,” and leave.
