I am so beyond sick of Wu sitting at home, using the ease and safety of twitter to provoke the world, free from any real confrontations that would give the lie to her many untruths and exaggerations. The internet has allowed this cowardly, confused sociopath a podium to screech her crazy from. And the post millennial generation is just dumb and lost enough to lap it up.
But let's get serious; about TDOR: Isn't Wu denying her trans status out of shame (what else could it be?) more harmful to "the movement" than anything thus mentioned?
Look at it from Wu's perspective: if you view her as the badass, super-popular, revolutionary warrior for SJW causes and feminism, wouldn't such a person coming out as trans be more of a boon than, oh I dunno, an IMAGINARY VIDEO GAME HEROINE revealing that her imaginary, non-existent genitalia was supposedly male? Come ON. This is basic stuff. What if Caitlyn Jenner, or another famous trans person, had had the insanity to deny their trans status? Wu would be tearing them a new asshole before you could say "Revolution 60 sucks shit!"
Wu's denial of trans status gives the lie to all her faux-noble rhetoric; and as such it should be thrown in her face whenever appropriate, especially when she's proselytizing with her nose in the air.
Denial of trans is an admission than trans is something to be ashamed of. Whether you want to see yourself as a real woman or not, how are you helping a suicidal teenage trans-person if you can't even let them know you underwent the same struggles, out of SHAME?
It's all about the shame. Wu sees being trans as shameful and horrifying, not being a "real" woman. We act as if Wu is smarter and more consistent than CWC, but in THIS sense, Wu's lack of consistency regarding trans politesse is every bit as "damaging" to "the movement" as CWC's recent "lady-man" and "not transitioning well" comments.
BRIANNA WU IS KILLING TRANS PEOPLE! Scream it from the rooftops!
