 +===== Controversial Partner ===== 
 + 
 +Jarbo's anti-woman views appear to clash directly with Peters' avowed pro-woman stance, as evinced recently in his online #MeToo crusade condemning his rival, //Star Trek Continues// star and anime actor Vic Mignogna. 
 + 
 +==== Profile on Medium ==== 
 + 
 +A 2014 profile on Medium included Jarbo among "The Bad Apples of #GamerGate," described as a "significant number of GamerGate supporters [who] have histories of harassment, hatred and abuse."(([[https://medium.com/@poopsockholmes/the-bad-apples-of-gamergate-ba39f8fd485|"The Bad Apples of #GamerGate," Medium.com]], 10/17/14.))
