Brianna Wu / John Flynt - Original Thread

[vertexwindi]

"Even though I’m a well known Apple commentator with dev experience and direct expertise"

I sometimes wonder what colour the sky is in Wu's world.

There IS a comment by Geth, but he doesn't mention Wu once. In fact, it's Wu's white knights who brought the question up. Geth merely comments on the business aspect of the article.

WIDF strikes again.

Oh my god. So, let me get this straight. Brianna Wu relies on her phone to tell her when she needs to stand up.
I'd love to see her in a survival situation. I would pay real, actual money to see her in a survival situation.

John, you're really on a full-court blitz of white male corporate ass-kissing over the past 24 hours. Good thing you have that white male PR hack executing this strategy for you and white males writing about you in a paper owned and run by white males. And a torrent of tweets praising white male tech dudebro products. And you writing for Refinery29 (run by white males) about Nintendo (run by all males).

You go, Gozilla of Feminism. Looking forward to more of your rants about the evils of cis-het white male patriarchy... that pays all your income and grows your audience.

Keep representing for women, white man.

Why are we the only ones who call Wu's arrogance?

Isometric is a shrine to Wu... it's non-stop butt-kissing, and the only topics of discussion are those approved by le Wu, which translates to: lies or exaggerations that make Wu look genius.

I say this with not a shred of facetiousness: the only individual I've seen who is this tone-deaf to how their arrogance and braggadocio comes across is... Kanye Kardashian.

Yes, Wu is that bad. The only difference being that Kanye has a voluminous list of awards and laurels to trumpet, while Wu has...

Soccon, 1.3..... AKA Rev. 60.

Just get over it already.

Pretty sure the last Mario game had Peach as one of the four playaable characters at the start. So she's not STILL in the castle.

I haven't heard of the "Ireland times" before, but I'm sure it was a simple mistype and Wu meant the Irish Times instead.

Spoiler

The Irish Times hasn't called Wu a "game boss" either, for that matter.

Earlier today, @GleamingTheQ-Bert was kind enough to give me a general synopsis and link to some of Wu's Isometric Podcasts. If you haven't heard them, do yourself a favor: continue to not listen to them, unless your resistance to Wu's bullshit is at the point where you can wade through it without harm. You will fucking rage with the force of a tactical nuclear device at how ridiculous these fucking things are otherwise.

To put it simply, it is, in five words: DEIFYING BRIANNA WU: THE SHOW. Without any exception or hyperbole, these are the most horrifying, self-serving, ridiculous shit Wu's ever been involved with. No questions occur without Wu's permission being asked; no facts allowed to permeate the echo chamber that is the Wucast. If you want to hear Wu claim she still fears for her life due to Tyce Andrews, blame Gamergate for not being able to learn Blueprint Engine, and hear a never-ending litany of how Revolution 60 was the most influential and successful game for IOS ever you guys, then this is the show for you.

I seriously wonder, given this bit that our noble arcade mascot was kind enough to link me, if Wu doesn't have even bigger problems with delusions of grandeur than we gave credit, Kiwis. There's too much Autism in Isometric for even me to plumb the depths of.

The thing about social media is that it's still clinging to the traditions of the past when it comes to the average person.

Think about, most people were raised to trust and have faith in printed media. Now this trust has been transferred, almost unconsciously, to the new generation of media. The trick is most people do not realize that anyone can start a blog, a podcast or even a "news" site so they read something or hear something and give it the same gravity they gave to an article in the New York Post. Not realizing it just dome hack who has options and a webpage, who done zero research, had zero training and most importantly has zero interest in being impartial.

This phase will pass, already certain sites are seeing a loss in traffic from regular readers and have to restart to click bait style headlines and biased articles to maintain readership levels. As the new generation grows up they understand that media is just media and most certainly not journalism.

It also doesnt help that many of the formerly respected news outlets have chosen to push the identity politics and racial tensions to boost their flagging numbers. Nothing sells better then hatred, bias and racism...

That's a sad commentary on people.

This is Kiss White Male Butt Like a Real Godzilla of Feminism and Racial Justice Day. Stop interrupting the media frenzy with your facts and reality.

Spoiler: rob lefebvre - writer of the cult of mac puff piece

Spoiler: some of rob's twitter friends

https://about.me/roblef/collections/twitterfriends

Imagine that - the Cult of Mac writer is friends with John's PR buddy Ed Zitron and serial defender Glenn Fleishman. What are the chances? It's almost like the theory of running a PR campaign, including unacknowledged tweeting payola, is correct.

Yep, as VR becomes more readily available, we could potentially engage in experimental architecture, design next-generation spacecraft, simulate complicated surgery, promote engineering in classrooms, design creative and immersive fantasy worlds to explore...or we could put our ugly fucking faces on social media and bleat about how Samus has a penis.

"Brianna runs a game development company, employs staff, and sells a highly enjoyable game on iOS with innovative game mechanics and strong storyline."​

Let's dust off the old Lie Counter, shall we?

1) Brianna - John
2) runs - sits at home by himself
3) game - shitty movie for iOS
4) development company - sits at home by himself sperging on Twitter all day
5) employs - no one works for John
6) staff - no one works for John
7) sells - it has non-existent sales at this point
8) highly enjoyable - highly annoying
9) game - shitty movie for iOS
10) innovative - from the early 90s, to be kind
11) game - shitty movie for iOS
12) strong - weak
13) storyline - incoherent rambling

Thirteen lies in just 23 words. Impressive. That's more frequent than every other word.

Conclusion: "darwiniandude" is a Johnsock. No one else is capable of packing so much falsehood into so little space.

darwiniandude's latest comment prior to this one was a month ago and he complained about clickbait - one of John's frequent gripes as well as practices.

Also...
"But my wife has always refused smart watches. On Pebble 'I couldn't get away with wearing that'. But she has bought a 38mm SS Milanese Loop Apple watch. Not because it's Apple, but because it's an object that she loves the design elements of and it feels significantly superior to her existing watches." - darwiniandude aka Frank Wu

Wu is like the poster child for shit taste in vidya.

To be fair ME3 was a reasonably good game besides the lack of character interaction and the ending.

9 comments. Only one person commented about you specifically, and it was in response to the flamebait post you're quoting. And it was a civil, fact-based, on-topic comment.

But in Johnspeak, 1 of 9 = "most".

Try again, John.
