Brianna Wu / John Flynt - Original Thread

[MiloWuCollusion]

Why she keeps pretending she gives a fuck about cyber security when she drops her email in Twitter messages or says without hint of sarcasm that she would not have problem in dropping birth information in a public site of it was not because GG.

 

[Holdek]

I just realized that simply slapping a cel shader onto Revolution 60 might have improved it's look a lot.
(If I'm right, you're welcome.)

I dunno. I'm not a gamer, don't really care (or even know that much beyond the basics) about GamerGate, and so I think I'm pretty unbiased about this stuff, and can at least offer an outsider's opinion. I've seen the game and it's really unappealing visually to me. That would have to be a pretty magical cel shader to fix it to the point where it looks decent.

Even her erstwhile supporters, when they don't have to carry on the pretense of liking it in order to further the anti-GamerGate cause, admit as such:

Because Wu WANTS to be attacked. It validates him. He's an attention whore of the highest caliber.

 

[Francis York Morgan]

They did. Because even Ghazi realized Pao was fucking incompetent. Hence Wu being shit-canned.

The retaliation from the remaining mods, which include some of Wu's allies, however, was fierce.

I think it's important to note that Wu being banished from Ghazi was going to happen eventually. Most of the users there hated her and saw her true colors. Wu's Pao-fueled tard rage was more or less the perfect excuse to finally cut her.

Well, yes but someone needs to be pretty desingenius to not see she doesn't give a fuck and her harassment may as well be "people that disagree with me in Twitter". It annoys me because is the same people that DEMAND that there should be legislations against anonymity

 

[Twrx]

If they acknowledged Victoria, it would jeopardise their little story that they go screaming to the media with.

Everything has gotta fit that narrative. Evidence be damned.

Because abusing that info she freely drops would only, somehow, strengthen her arguments that are composed of utter bullshit - the new drama that came out a few weeks ago; "Mr. Robot" keenly points out that to hack a system, you can exploit the flaws within the human element of those systems just as well, if not better than, the tech portion of the system itself.

And the SJWs are some very flawed people who naturally think they're fucking perfect and everybody that isn't them needs to serve them hand and foot

No, no. I said 'better' not 'decent', like sprinkles on a turd.

Anyone know where I can find a copy of the Wu song that was used in the intro of the DN final live stream?

@DeagleDad420 I need to bump that shit srsly

Update from the frontlines of Wupocalypse Part 2: Fear and Loathing of Gamergate.
Okay, so, 14 pellets of mescaline are gone, along with the run and a quarter of a bag of weed.
Also, we kind of made a few wrong turns, and I think we're in Ohio. Does anyone know where Jewitt is? Because it's kind of getting creepy here. I'm relaying this on the 3G because, like, there's nothing out here. There's a post office, and a few shops that look like they fell out of the 30s.
Oh yeah, and the locals. They haven't really been helpful. Mostly they've been muttering about "outsiders", and this one big, pin-headed motherfucker in overalls keeps following us around. Getting some really Deliverance vibes here people.

Irony: it's how blood tastes.

Or rather, hypocrisy, irony's bastard cousin.

 

[Cynical]

I couldn't help imagining Wu wetting himself in glee when I read this:

 

[BOLDYSPICY!]

[. . .]She claims a complete lack of playable female characters, but Samus Aran was playable in 1986, and Wu never fucking mentions her.[. . .]I noticed this during research for the Wu Article, but Wu will outright claim that even in the 1980s when Video Games were young, they were inherently sexist, inherently problematic, inherently misogynistic. It's a load of fucking bullshit. Not only does Samus give that the fucking finger, but this was when your average game couldn't fit a fucking plot.

My first waifu, no lie.

Really late because I am catching up on the trainwreck that is Brianna Wu. I stayed away from any GamerGate-type threads for the longest time because I was afraid I might rage, but WE NEED MORE FEMALE REPRESENTATION IN THIS THREAD THIS ISN'T A BOYS CLUB

In all seriousness, when I read Wu's article, my first thought was that for someone who claims to be a ~*~*grrl gamerrrr*~*~, she knows jackshit about video games. She also sounds like a filthy casual.

Have anyone played the "epic" that is rev60 here?

I've suffered through Chloe Sagal's magnum opus, Homesick.

I beat Rani Baker's shoddy Demon's Forge remake.

But I just can't bring myself to touch the shitshow of pure, unadulterated cringe that is Rev60. Plus I don't have a smartphone, so there's that.

ea for women? what the hell would a game for women be?

 

[Jaimas]

@Smutley has. I've played a bit of it, but nowhere near as much as he has.

Smutley's Let's Play of it for the Farms is ironically enough the archived series used in the Revolution 60 article.

 

[tepid]

Oh dear Lord. It still amazes me that people are trying so hard to suck up to Brianna despite her being nothing.

The power of the Twitter follower number.


Wu hyping up Twitter's "new" anti-"harassment" measures as if it is something that helps the average user when she had a personal harassment officer there is so disingenuous. She must surely understand that this helps no one on that garbage service other than the 30K+ follower sect.

Wu doesn't give a crap about other users. Twitter is there for his ego, dammit, fuck everyone else.

 

[zedkissed60]

John's world-famous "game studio" consists of a full-time "tweeter" as CEO, his imaginary "harassment officer", his imaginary "assistant" who John blames regularly for getting pregnant, and 2 unnamed "other staff" to pad the numbers of his imaginary "team".

For the life of me, I cannot understand how his "studio" doesn't dominate iPhone app sales. It's a real mystery.

 

[the Borg]

If I may take a late rating, when and how did Bananananana Wu get the boot from Ghazi? Was there an archived post or tweet about it, or was it just a shadowban type of thing? I searched quite a few pages back but I couldn't find any posts that had substance about it.

 

[BOLDYSPICY!]

Feminist Kiwi reinforcements are on the way!

EDIT: Still catching up, sorry.
