Brianna Wu / John Flynt - Original Thread

[Francis York Morgan]

Given the evidence that @zedkissed60 posted earlier that Brianna's birth parents are in fact her alleged adoptive parents (which, by the way, falls in line with Brianna's own statements about her parents from before she was Brianna Wu), and given the cross-posted evidence of both Rachel Dolezal and Andrea Smith, I'm willing to bet, dollars to donuts, that like most aspects of Wu's childhood and early life, and, like her claims of always being female, Wu is lying about those.

It would help if we had more pictures of her parents for comparison. Until we get more (and some of better quality), I will continue to assume that Brianna is telling the truth about being adopted if only because it makes her whining about adoption hilariously terrible.

I am coming back to make a dumb comment, late, autistic... but it just came to my mind.

Who else pushes the 'don't do that, it won't make you happy' line? Many of course but maybe. Maybe....

Hm, maybe those trying to discourage transitioning?

This person doesn't really seem like an lolcow, just kind of silly and annoying, like much of the GG stuff.

I'm curious, though: how many sales of his video game did he make? Did he make a return on investment?

Dude, read the wiki page.

 

[Lorento]

She did try that. Too bad she then fired all of them and had amateurs rework everything for maximum shittiness.

Ah no bother, all these 'experts' with 'experience' were probably misogynists anyway.

Holdek, she spent almost two months throwing everything at a campaign to convince people that Jace Connors was a threat to her life. Following an incident in which Jace challenged her to a street race, crashed his mom's Prius, and complained that his mom took away his computer privileges. She has, in fact, continued to list Jace and Tyce as ongoing threats to her life, four months hence Jace and friends being revealed as works of satire.

That alone perfectly encapsulates why Wu deserves her own thread.

As for sales figures, her game is a resounding failure. It's been downloaded just under 170,000 times, which seems impressive until you realize that downloaded is not sold and that the game goes from free version to version with actual content with a six dollar in-app purchase. According to AppAnnie data, Within two weeks of its release, Revolution 60 ranked just #1,322 for iPhone game downloads on July 24. It also peaked its gross revenue then, coming in at #840 among all iPhone games. On October 11, right after Brianna Wu's Operation FalseFag II self-flagging and after trying to say a threat by Something Awful was enough of a threat to her to cause her to leave her home (whilst conducting all her interviews from her home),Revolution 60 saw a brief bounce in popularity, reappearing at #1,005 in the top 1500, only to drop back to to #1,318 two days later, before falling off the edge and never returning to the top 1,500 hence.

To contextualize this, this means the many IOS Minecraft Clones such as SurvivalCraft did infinitely better than Revolution 60 did, as did a number of generic counterparts of Plants vs Zombies.

Why make a mobile game for exclusively for iOS anyway? If I am correct Android has up to four times the marktshare of iOS on phones and around 10% more when it comes to tablets.

Because Wu is an Apple cultist.

Wu says another woman leaving Reddit was reported incorrectly by the press:


Great, just bastardize the concept of Frozen by slapping Wu's man face on Elsa's body.

 

[Sanae Kochiya]

You know, I don't get Wu. As in what was she expecting when she pretended to be a GGer to give them a bad name and be enough of a failure to get caught? Kind of asking for it, if you ask me.

Now she's blaming GG cos she can't find her parents. Irony would be that GG would have help her find her parents, were it not for the fact that she/he/whatever is an ass.

Hellblazer, I have nothing but respect for you as a moderator, but there is no way in hell that this sort of crap wasn't going to happen sooner or later with the swirling maelstrom of drama and idiocy that is Team Wu.

I will, however, promise to not directly contact anyone in the Brianna Wu camp, will not directly antagonize any of them, and I encourage all fellow Kiwis to do the same. Observe and Report is our creed, after all. We can have ample amusement just laughing at her antics, after all.

Well, here's what would probably happen if Wu's army of ardent asspatters tried to actually engage us, in all honesty:

Wu herself is a coward and remarkably lazy, so she would never get off her ass to try and attack us. If she was truly convinced that the Farms needed to be taken down, she would link the site and the topic specifically on her Twitter and that would be the end of her involvement. It's both convenient for her and gives her plausible deniability if it turns out that it might look bad if a bunch of people that talked about some idiot game developer and her shitty game and her shittier Twitter posts got death threats, DDoS attacks, and had to be forced off the Internet because we talked about said idiot game developer, because she never told them to come after us.

90% of the Anti-Gamergate bandwagon are shortsighted, remarkably lazy, somewhat idiotic, and astonishingly narrow-minded. They won't even know what a lolcow is, and some of them might not know who Chris-Chan is beyond "Sonichu." They'll go on Twitter and complain that the security question made this a private forum ala Something Awful where only the super secret Gamergate crowd can gather and laugh at brave and heroic Wu.

10% of the people will probably figure out the lolcow question (probably by using Google) and will come on here. Of those 10%, 90% of them are hopelessly biased toward Wu and will dismiss every single one of our arguments, probably making stupid strawmen or simply "refuting" them with Tumblrisms and SEXISM. We'll laugh at them. They'll be dumb and start kicking up a lot of shit, and the mods will know who to IP ban based on the large amount of Reports that they get in the inbox. Null will probably also hate us forever.

The remaining 10% will become disillusioned with Wu when they realize how much of a shitcunt she is. Unfortunately, I'm convinced that this 10% is a fever dream I concocted while I was deathly ill.

In short, I doubt there would be some real fallout because Wu herself would never make an appearance there and a lot of her asspatters don't know how to harass someone if they don't have Twitter's "Tweet To" option to use. That being said, I have been wrong before, so I would still rather not risk antagonizing Wu enough to give her a reason to actually send her attack dogs after us. At the very best, Null and the mods just hate us forever. At the worst, every Kiwi will have distributed 1,000 new Dumb ratings and we will have three topics on Brianna Wu herself and fifteen topics talking about how the Kiwis are all "sexist, misogynistic, racist privileged white fucks."

That being said, provoking people and drawing attention intentionally tends to be a bad idea. If they come to us, we deal with it then.

Thunder is it really so hard to use "90%" "9%" and "1%"?

Adam Sandler movies suck in general, Wu.


THEN DON'T REACT, AND THEY HAVE NO POWER


You're the one choosing to get triggered, Wu


Preach it, brother:


Where are you getting these numbers from? Your ass?


If you don't care, why are you whining on Twitter? People who don't care SHUT UP.

What is the deal with these asspatters bowing and scraping to encourage the Giant Spayed Kat's delusion?

Depicting Wu as a beautiful woman only plays into the ego which gives us shit like "so many films want MY attention" and me and other HIGH-PROFILE women"...

I've decided senpai's delusional, narcissistic ego is her single worst trait. It fuels "do you know who I am?", "I'm sorry you're not getting enough carrot!" and all the Wu-tastrophes that make my ears bleed.

I have simply never seen an ego so out of touch with the reality of the situation, it must be a mask for massive insecurity:

Confident folks don't constantly tell the world how great they are. It explains the Twitter-heroin, too. More tweets, more asspats, more insulation between wu and her insecurities.
