Why people still give this egomaniac the time of the day is beyond me.

Good to see that she still hasn't learned to not bite the hand that feeds.

 

[Von Clausewitz]

John has a "press department". A whole "department". "They" (i.e., plural) "make the call".

And amazing, attentive judge of women in tech that he is, John got the name of the winner wrong. It's "Privail", not "Preveal".

The winner is trying to make health care affordable for all. The only project John got excited about was robots doing your nails.

Well, this begs the question how happy Wu is with her transition.

Let me explain:
We all know that Wu is all smoke and mirrors when it comes to feminism, tech or well... anything really. In most cases she hasn't even the slightest idea what she is talking about, and if she has, there is a rather big chance that she is outright lying about the facts.
Being the narcissist she is, everything she does or says is about her keeping up appearances. She claims to be a victim of harassment, but she isn't. She claims to be a hot-shot developer, who knows how games can be made better, but she doesn't. She claims to speak for women in tech, but in truth she only opens her mouth to further her own victim-narrative. If she doesn't get the right questions, she often derails the interview, to inject her own 'harassment issues' and how bad the situation for women in tech is. The rest is usually uninformed claptrap, which is the reason why I always have problems to follow her words.
Every single bit about Wu is a mask - and considering how loosely her face clings to her skin, that seems rather fitting (the mask analogy, not her face). Yes, I know, I am only repeating here what everyone already knows, but bear with me.

Let me put up a theory here:
Wu is not afraid that her Patreon bucks might vanish, once her mask slips completely. No, she regrets that she made the transition. If she doesn't regret it, she is at least not comfortable with her 'current state of womanhood' - although most likely only on a subconscious level. I think the best evidence is, how desperately Wu wants to be this 'big female and feminist game developer'. As I said before, every time she opens her mouth, she tries to reinforce her public image - with the subtlety of a main battle tank, no less - and I doubt Wu really needs that Patreon money to survive. (Feel free to correct me.) I think the real reason why she wants to convince the world, that she is this 'Roberta Williams 2.0+Feminism', is because she desperately wants to believe her own narrative.
Think about it: Wu isn't even a very convincing woman. If you look at her, if you listen to her, you quickly get the 'this is a man'-vibe. And although the skill some people show in 'lying to themselves' never ceases to amaze me, Wu sees this every time she looks into a mirror.

So, why hasn't she come out as transgender? She could still spill all her SJW-crap and even sell herself as the 'first big transgender game designer' which - as I presume - would boost her publicity through the roof and cause her Patreon tug boat to turn into a cruise ship. She obviously knows how to market herself (to the unthinking SJW-crowd), so why not milk that opportunity?
Because this would mean admitting, that she isn't a 'real' woman.

And so she continues to wave her arms around, scream misogyny, pretend to be harassed and (full circle) also tries to tweet about things she thinks matter to women. Like that nail-bot.

I believe that Wu is fending off one of the worst things, that can happen to a fully transitioned male to female transgender person:
The realization that it was a mistake to do that sex change operation.

I have to assume this is the reason, even her supporters have probably seen the pre-transition pictures by now. I think the subgroup of her supporters that claim she's being "smeared" with trans accusations (supporters that include t-girls too) have given her reason enough not to claim those delicious oppression points for ego alone.

 

[Sanae Kochiya]

I'm honestly waiting for Wu to hype up Rev 60 as this big holiday release on December.

It's only the way she can save face for missing the October deadline short of hoping her entire following simply forgets it happened.

 

[Francis York Morgan]

Checked Kickstarter and, you won't believe it, but there's still no update from Brianna on her game being past due (again). She could at least half-ass a lie to the people she's directly ripped off with her shenanigans.

 

[Cynical]

Wow, Wu admitted to fucking something up?

[zedkissed60]

Of course. They're only mansplainy white cishet shitlords if they're not cutting John a check.

Sure, John. It has nothing to do with the game company and the website paying you (and without mentioning it) for the praise. You're so "principled".

As for "the love", all your retweets are from the game company, the website, and a fellow shill buddy of yours.

Another fine demonstration of "ethics" in games "journalism".

I see we've unearthed the world's most delusional human being. He believes John "maintains respectfulness and professionalism" - you know, like tweeting throughout a pitch contest for women in tech when John was the judge, then getting the winner's name completely wrong. This happened less than 24 hours ago.

If Flynt claimed his past, he would not only acknowledge his detractors are right, but also his past actions.

From my own analysis, this isn't inaccurate. The informants behind the Frank Wu article and several Kiwis familiar with her have espoused the belief that the Wus (as in both her and Frank) were pushing the oppressed feminist narrative before it became popular to be trans with the Social Justice community. Only one small problem: Wu's pushed it so hard and has so many supporters in the TERF category that if she reveals it, she'll be torn to shreds

I keep such theorycraft off of lolcow wiki, but my belief as to why she does this is very simple:

I don't think she regrets the decision. But you're very close to the real reason, IMO.

Brianna Wu is a failure. She's failed everything she's ever done, and only is a success by the most broad and incoherent of metrics. She's repeatedly failed out of college, her business have all been disastrous failures, and it's only because of her insanely privileged upbringing and later, Frank, that she has anything to her name. She has never known a significant hardship beyond the most token and personal of them. Brianna Wu transitioning, however, had everything to do with her following her current career path.

Consider Brianna's history - with Socially Unconscious Productions/Election Eve, and remember how she used to brag about how awesome she was, as John Flynt, back in the day. John believed he was owed a readership by divine right, and similarly, believed he was inherently predestined towards success. Reality didn't meet him halfway, but he was sure enough about it coming right down the pipe that he'd outright lie to employers, outright lie to investors, and outright lie to himself about the success of SOCCON. John becoming Brianna was simply a way to advance that.

All of this explains why Brianna focuses so hard on the Feminism angle and claims to be legit even though it's fucking obvious she isn't because she's got gigantic Tyrannosaurus hands, towers over others, has visible scarring on her throat and legs, et al. Brianna Wu is pathologically unable to face reality. She can't, because that means admitting she's failed, and she thus far never has, beyond mere statements of fact. Brianna, like many narcissists, has never had to face that fact and has never learned humility (the lack of which, as any chronicleer of lolcows knows, is the hallmark of lolcowism). This, I feel, is the core of why she won't admit it: It would be the same, to her, as publically admitting that she fucked up and that Revolution 60 isn't coming to Steam after all.

The thing is, if she wasn't a terrible person, this could be a watershed moment. Something she could learn from. Something she could improve herself over. Unfortunately for her (and fortunately for her critics and lolcow chronicleers alike), Brianna Wu won't.

I guess Brianna actually would be the most qualified person to speak about the fragility of a male ego.
For once, she's qualified to talk about something!! Stop the presses.

All that, plus a bunch of Sailor Moon villains show up as villains here too. How the hell did he ever think this was going to fly as written? He'd have been hit with cease-and-desist letters the second this aired, if it ever had.

lol, which parts was he going to personally voice-act. Even pre-transition I bet he would have wanted to do the lead.

Let's say I believe someone is wrong and just for the sake of argument I also believe they belong to some group of subhuman idiots.
They speak on a subject I care about.

What the fuck does that have to do with my ego?

Considering John Flynt reads this, I imagine he's reacting something like this while reading this post

 

[HickoryDickory]

Uguuuu~

Has Wu ever stated what being a woman means? I've had a vagoo my entire life, but I would like to hear her 8-odd years of experience and how I'm feemayling wrongly or problematically.

John Flynt lives right behind the Applebees!

EDIT: Apparently he pitched this to Rebel Radio, the Ole Miss radio station:

Much like his characters, John's plans for world domination all revolved around rinky-dink college media outlets.
