I totally didn't realize we had a War Room now.

Any examples that you'd like to provide and refute, John? No, of course not.

You said something stupid and doubled down like an idiot because you refuse to admit you're wrong. Welcome to the real world outside your ban happy twitter safe space you stupid fuck.

I'm going to lul if in the end it turns out Wu reports a bunch of news blogs on fb for "targetted harassment".

But how did it feel when she tried to do the same thing to Stephen Lynch repeatedly?

I agree, John, those guys are total idiots; you should just send them this one and that ought to shut them up: https://lolcow.wiki/wiki/Brianna_Wu

*snarl*

He's a cis white male and my opponent so it's very much not the same thing!!

100's of guys (I wonder if that asian woman Wu yelled at last week is one of those 'guys'.)
1000's of articles

It amazes me that Wu thinks everyone is dumb enough to just accept her word as truth when you can see this isn't the case by just looking at her twitter account.

Lynch is literally Satan reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

>I hate Trump's guts even though I don't actually listen to anything he says because triggered/raped

Trololololo

100's of guys

It's the typing of those numbers in THAT manner which bothers me the most.
Hundreds and Thousands.

Does anyone know the makeup of MA-8? I mean, is it a reddish district by Massachusetts standards? That would explain why Lynch is relatively mild on the topic of President Trump. By comparison, consider Richmond County in NY, aka Staten Island -- while the rest of the city went for Hillary in positively Mao-ish numbers, Trump actually won this one borough by (low) double digits.

I'd be curious to know if this is a similar situation. It'd also be fucking hilarious to see John trying to win such a district.

Lmfao he wants to get someone kicked off Facebook for the moon rocks post.

Uh I mean 'Targeted Harassment!!!'

 

[Peace and Harmony]

Well I think professional scammers who steal people's money on Patreon ought to be jailed too but that doesn't happen. We live in a corrupt world, John.

MA-8 is hard blue, but it's old blue. The kind that dates back to when the economy was more-or-less thrumming along without too many overt issues. They fucking hate identity politicians and tech-hipsters in particular. Nobody in that state who works for a living is going to put up with a 30+ year-old iDevice-wearing yuppie with delusions of grandeur tell them how they're being bad people for not giving a shit about fake oppression.

Wow, the one field Brianna Wu isn't an expert in

 

[D.Va]

Imagine this woman in the senate screeching about gamergate every 5 minutes every time a white guy was allowed to speak

 

[Dr. Merkwurdichliebe]

That's exactly what Wu thinks

No, Flynt/Wu, you gibbering imbecile, you will not have "power of congressional subpoena." That power is granted only to congressional committees and subcommittees. It is very explicitly not available for the use of individual members.

Specifically:

"In Liveright v. United States, the court held that the committee rules place the power and responsibility of deciding who shall be subpoenaed with the subcommittee itself and not with any individual member."

EDIT: Ninja'd by @AnOminous.

What makes this more "fusstrating" is that this idiot wants to be a politician, this comes with the territory.

I have no doubt as the heat gets worse we are going to see more meltdowns, as this isn't even major league media scrutiny and Wu is already self destructing over it.

Until now Wu neatly fitted the narrative of the poor, harassed woman in tech - just don't look at her. Except for a few articles on certain websites, which were brushed away as right-wing propaganda, she only received positive, non-critical press coverage. Most authors who wrote something about her just rolled with it and didn't even check what kind of person she is. And if they checked, they didn't bother write it, since "Poor female game designer receives death-threats by sweaty basement dwellers!" is something that generates clicks... and today there is literally nothing more to it.

But now Wu wants to do something with her life that - well - actually matters, she wants to go into politics and do something jobs might depend on. Playing the victim as some harassed indie-developer with big aspirations works, because it is a tragic story. But in the end it doesn't matter, if she succeeds or fails as game designer, because the difference is one game more or less in some online store.

Politics is an entirely different thing. The press will happily leap on any dumb thing a politician says and then tear that person into shreds if they see it fit. This is what they have done since the dawn of the free press and will continue to do so until the end of time. Brianna hasn't realized yet, that with her step onto the political stage she left her victim club card at the door. Of course, like any person without a shred of self-reflection, she now tries to continue with her victim dance, not realizing that this won't work with the media...

....especially because Trump is trying to do exactly the same at the moment.

What's up with Wu's phantom hate-boner for Uber lately?

Lot of similarities between Wu and Trump, which gives me even more pause that she might have a chance. Crazy times we live in.

They didn't shut down when other ride-sharing services and taxis did to protest Trump.

Uber sucks, but John didn't have any problem with them before that.

I was thinking the same thing. It probably has to do with sexism, or something. That's the lazy answer.
