    Saying that someone knowingly committing fraud is a victim is a wild take

      It’s not about her receiving criticism because she’s a fraud, it’s about her receiving even more additional criticism and hate and threats, because she’s a woman. Would a man receive the same level of hate for faking his career? No he wouldn’t. That’s misogyny and blaming it on her is victim blaming.

        I do think a man cheating this overtly in a tournament would be routinely mocked, hated, threatened and exiled from their community. You cannot tolerate cheaters or everything becomes completely meaningless.

          The fact that all her (female) team mates were forced to step down smells like misogyny to me.

            The team withdrawing is an inevitable consequence of being caught cheating, there’s no other way this could have gone. The team mates are victims of her actions.

            wasn’t it an all women tournament? Was her team aware of the cheating?

              I couldn’t find any accusations against her team mates. Only against her and her boyfriend who helped her cheat.

          You wouldn’t be reading about this at all, of she were a man.

            Look, it’s stupid to pay attention to any of this, but your comment is ignorant to the point of bordering on absurdity. When Dream was caught cheating at his Minecraft speed runs, it was huge news, dominating the gaming news cycle for months, and even breaking into mainstream sports.

            This is real small potatoes in comparison to that.
