This has been true since before Gamergate ever happened, but it does bear repeating: Wu is a living, breathing embodiment of every single thing Gamergate formed to combat. Someone with absolutely no skills or merit who has decided, apropos of nothing, that they deserve to have the fucking right to say what is and is not culturally relevant because fuck you, peasant.
Wu is the fucking definition of a Cultural Hegemonist.
The only reason Wu's gotten any press whatsoever is because she's personally connected to, either directly (IRL/Twitter Friends) or indirectly (via Frank) people who can help her when she needs it. All of Revolution 60's positive press came from outlets that were personal friends of hers. Her first published writing works were on websites that friends of hers (Leigh Alexander, Ben Kuchera, Maddie Meyers) worked at or that her Husband had ties to. She was brought into the Cool Kids' club by CON in hopes they could use her connections themselves, and between her connections to various journalists involved in causing GG in the first place, there is fucking zero doubt that she was wrist-deep in attempts to forment her victim narrative from the start, even though GG as a whole fucking ignored her ass.
Her ability to get critics of hers permanently suspended was due to her personal friendships with Glenn Fleischman and Del Harvey. Her victimhood has been siezed on by living embodiment of every negative stereotype about Jewish people and political remora, Ari Ezra Waldman (the fucking asshole lawyer arguing we need to end anonymity online), who she is also personal friends with, promotes constantly, and featured prominently in her TIRML segment.
From the fucking beginning of Wu's rise to something distantly approaching relevance to where we are now, she has relied on absolutely none of her own merit and skill, and has instead risen on the backs of her fellow regressive ideologues. When you see the angle she immediately goes for on platforms where she doesn't have any power, you quickly realize that as much of a laughingstock as Wu is, she's also the kind of person who would be insanely dangerous if she actually got into any position of authority.
Wu is a living embodiment of "Klickbait" given some vague homonculus like human form. That's why Wu gets press coverage. Wu is like the living embodiment of oneof those insane Buzzfeed headlines, right there on camera.
Wudrupile down.
But even he won his campaign for election though so he's still up on John Flynt in that department. All that's left for Flu and kin is to go back having never even gotten on the ballot and eventually tell everybody where the patch is the day pigs fly. This is exactly why my poll vote remains moon rocks.
1080p and double speed really enhances the freak show experience when watching John continually reptilian head bob. Cover your arms you fat old man or do some pushups every few days already, so after every Potbellies run essentially.
Hank Johnson benefits greatly from not being quite as stupid or insane or just all around hateful as his immediate predecessor. Do any of you remember Cynthia McKinney?
