Brianna Wu / John Flynt - DEAGLE NATION STILL LIVES

[SteelPlatedHeart]

Maybe this was addressed in the other thread and I haven't read far enough yet, but why did Flynt/Wu pull his "award-winning" game from the market in the first place? Why would you need to pull the Mac version in order to create an Android version?

It certainly looks as if the game will never be available again for any OS.

Is there a chance that a cease-and-desist letter from a law firm was involved?

She pulled it down because she was going to release the super special awesome edition...at some point. Possibly. Maybe.

Serious question: Do game companies usually pull their products from the market while working on an upgrade? Seems like Flynt/Wu would want his company's only game to be generating income.

 

[Mimic]

they are knowingly airing utter bullshit and don't care.

That's US Cable TV in a nutshell right there. Facts are nothing compared to ratings and income. "Lie until it hurts," a goblin once said.

No, that's usually not what happens. The product is removed once the upgrade is done unless there's serious issues.

The new version probably couldnt even run on ios. It's massively bloated, and likely worse in terms of optimization than the last version. So she'll probably pull the new one when/if it hits steam and tell everyone she's going to release a third "perfected" edition for iOS and just keep the cycle going... a cycle that can never turn just like the shitty square wheels on holidays "bike".

It's honestly offensive. Brianna is one of the only transwomen that does this on such a constant basis. Many transwomen only really talk about their experiences as transwomen and try not to talk over women sharing their lifelong experiences. Brianna acts like she's got like 1,000,000 years of vagina experience and is thus the Ambassador of Womenkind, the only one suitable to speak for the fairer sex.

If she wasn't already displaying tons of sociopathic behaviour, this'd probably convince me on the status of her mental health.
I'm starting to wonder if she actually believes her lies. Like she has some sort of doublethink going on where she's simultaneously Brianna Wu the transgender woman from an extremely wealthy family, and Brianna Wu, the poor cisgender woman who was adopted by some mysterious parents we've never seen.
I'm probably late on this theory though.

The downfall of every con artist is when they start to believe their own cons.

Wu's way deep into her own story.

This is HILARIOUS. There is an open confession by Jan Rankowski it was just an extended troll with no actual malice behind it on public record, so if Jace is played up as a real threat, they are knowingly airing utter bullshit and don't care.

With a show title as view-baity as that, it's not really a surprise to see such half-assed content in there. The more taboid-worthy the story, the better it is for the network's ratings, or so they think.

Perhaps we should be upping the search results for Jace too. @Jaimas

Wu's episode of The Internet Ruined My Life is treating Jace as an actual threat.

"Only occasionally does one of the interviewees break through all the gossipy dross with some semblance of unguarded humanity. It's difficult, for example, not to be moved by the raw confessional of video game developer Brianna Wu, whose tweets about sexism in the gaming industry unleashed a hellfire of rape and death threats, and forced both her and her husband to leave their home. At one point we see a video sent to Wu by some anonymous bully who was apparently driving to her house to kill her, but had an accident along the way. His unintelligible offscreen tirade is horrifying, and Wu's remembrance of it so deeply affecting, that it makes you wish it was contained in a much more sober and probing series."

So Wu is going to claim that a threat provably from SomethingAwful was real, that she was forced to leave her home, and as the chaser, that Tyce and Jace were real?

This is going to be easy as shit. Rip the episode. Bookend each part with images and video. Wu's response to @Chatterwhiteman? Point out that it was provably SA. Wu leaving her home? Vee's debunking of that shit. The piece de la resistance? The Jan admitting Jace was fake clip.

This is going to be amazing.

 

[Solzhenitsyn]

I'm hoping for some Law and Order type shit, personally. I want clips of gamers boasting about leveling up through rape and an ISIS-style terrorist association. Bonus points for "GamerGate" (the entire collective hashtag, presumably) masturbating on the phone to Wu.

 

[Peace and Harmony]

This is going to be amazing.

Seriously the only way this could be any better is if it turns out that the show was a troll vehicle that was deliberate engineered to make its guests look like the flaming spergs that they are.

(That's putting a lot of faith in TV writers, I know. Either way, John is going to look fucking retarded.)

"but had an accident along the way."
Are you fucking serious? That already sounds ridiculous, but considering "Jace" revealed that he was a fake and was a sketch artist, they're airing this while knowing that it's complete bullshit.

John you are literally deranged and crazy and a fucking lunatic. Also you are neither "responsible" nor "visible", except to us, of course, because we're here to laugh at your daily fuckups. Where's the fucking game, John?

That's fine, we know you take issue because you yourself are crazy, a lunatic, and deranged, Brianna.

Bernie saying words that existed before the medical classification of "mentally challenged" isn't as bad as you insulting autistic children, You deranged hypocrite.
Edit: Screwed up the facts. That was SpacekatgaI. My bad.

Then what do you even call people that are out of their minds? Oh right, these people consider 'stupid' to be a slur...

"who was apparently driving to her house to kill her, but had an accident along the way."
"but had an accident along the way."

That's not even the FAKE story. He was driving to her house to challenge her to a street race.

I'm still personally waiting for the episode that makes Kiwi Farms out to be this elite internet cabal that's involved in every crime the known world has a law for. Then they'll say we take time out from sex trafficking and drug running to harass random people on the internet.

And this episode is going to be hilarious. My is at the ready.

I'm hoping Wu personally comes in an insists that Gamergate was responsible for slavery and the rise of Nazi Germany.

I mean the Colbert gamergate-ninja-hit-squad already set the bar really high in the unbelievable nonsense department.
