You know women are being mind-controlled by a supervillain ALL THE TIME, right?

Someone needs to go back and press the "you're a rich entitled housewife" button again. That got some funny responses.
 
“man that’s [sic] benefitted from structural racism, sexism and homophobia in ways he’ll never understand.”

John Flynt sure has a knack for self-description.

He was essentially raised in it

"The creator is solely responsible for fulfilling the promises made in their project. If they’re unable to satisfy the terms of this agreement, they may be subject to legal action by backers."

There's some stuff before this outlining what project creators must do in order to say they've fulfilled their obligations to the best of their ability if they are unable to complete the project, but that's the most relevant part. They leave it up to the backers to do actually anything and just provide the platform. Wu's actually broken these conditions, but it's the backers that have to do something about it and it seems like they just don't care. The Rev60 facebook and subreddits are dead, and only one person has commented on the Kickstarter page recently, with no reply yet.

While writing this I actually bothered to check the reward tiers for the first time in a while, and holy shit. The estimated date was August 2014, with the mac release a month later. As perks they offer a 'digital strategy guide' for the combat, and 20 people are owed t-shirts. Wu's also promised special ingame items to help people "get the ending they want", some kind of weapons pack and there's also supposed to be a couple of posters. Wu hasn't mentioned any of this in any recent updates and probably doesn't even remember they're supposed to exist. If Wu's the main programmer now she might not even be capable of delivering the in-game stuff, since from what we've heard she barely coded anything.

That or taking legal action would cost more than what they put into it.

You don't generally get lawyer fees in a breach of contract lawsuit, which keeps the court system from having to deal with a flood of bullshit lawsuits about next to nothing where nobody but the lawyers get paid (that's what class actions are for).
 
Ive never understood the mentality of "be a complete ass to people in order to get them to accept you".
John is an idiot and is crazy. Obviously he was bullied as a child and in college, and since he's lived his life segregated amidst other comfortable white people, the vast majority of the bullying came from white dudes. That must have sucked and we all should feel sorry for him for that.

However, John, being a crazy idiot, foolishly believes that by constantly being in hate mode towards "white men" (a category he chopped off his dick and married an Asian American to try and get out of), somehow he'll "show those bullies" and "win".

He is, of course, a white male bully himself, which negates any moral standing he thinks he has by being a "victim". Naturally, he is oblivious to this fact and/or rationalizes that it's OK for him to act that way, because he's an oppressed Asian female tranny or something, plus those dang dirty trolls etc etc.

People that follow him tend to have similar messed-up mindsets, so no one actually challenges him to consider the self-destructive, delusional, toxic futility of his behavior.

Don't you know that Revolution 60 made the Flynt family millions of dollars since last Christmas? Maybe they'll get two helpings of rice and beans this year!
They can't afford a stove, so they'll just cook it on ONE OF THE FASTEST MACS IN THE WORLD.

They'll eat it off of those iPads, probably.
