The handwriting screams tranny. Past the age of 16, I don't think any one with ovaries dots the letter "i" with hearts. And lol at Wu thinking she can pull a fast one over Shkreli's head with Frank's amino acids. Shkreli might have gotten into big pharma via the finance sector, but even he had to take biochemistry sometime in university

Notice the uppercase R's in pyrrolysine?

This "capital intrusion" is a symptom of dyslexia, which could help to explain Flynt/Wu's inability to write or spell at a level typically demonstrated by most high school graduates.

Shit, I got a copy a few months ago on eBay for fifty bucks with plastic case and manual. That's fucking peanuts.

Posting child pornography, discussing Gamergate: exactly the same level of morally wrong, and worse than revenge porn, death threats and doxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxing. Do you know who else discussed Gamergate once? Hitler.
 
I thought that it might be fun to dig out my dusty journalism lecturer hat and grade one of Flynt/Wu's "investigative reporter" pieces.

I'll use the "I'm Thrilled Hillary Clinton Is Taking On The Alt-Right & You Should Be, Too" piece from Bustle.com.

Original in italics. Grader's comments bracketed in bold and in every student's least-favorite color.
_______________________________________

Speaking in Nevada last week, Hillary Clinton came out with an unapologetically fiery speech against Trump's new campaign chief, Steve Bannon. The former editor-in-chief of Breitbart, Bannon oversaw the publication best known colloquially [Does not know what colloquially means. -5 points] as the voice of the "Alt-Right" [The word alt-right is not capitalized. -5 points for each misspelling. Total: -115 points] — an offshoot of the Republican party frequently associated with Gamergate [Factual error. 99 percent of Americans have never heard of Gamergate and do not associate it with anything. -10 points] and white supremacist politics. [Source? This is the writer's unsupported opinion. -10 points] To quote Clinton: "This is not conservatism as we have known it. This is not Republicanism as we have know it. These are race-baiting ideas, anti-Muslim and anti-immigrant ideas, anti-woman –– all key tenets making up an emerging racist ideology known as the 'Alt-Right.'"

For many Americans, Clinton's speech was their first introduction to the Alt-Right. Like a horror movie monster, I've [In this construction, "like a horror movie monster" can modify nothing in the following sentence except the word I, which is unintentionally humorous. -10 points for violating a rule of grammar taught in middle school.] found the Alt-Right to be a mutation of the conservative movement that's turned on its creator and taken control. [Mutations do not have creators. -10 for lapse in logic.] This isn't your father's conservative party. I should know — as a prominent feminist in the game industry, [Author is not a prominent feminist in any industry. -10 for fabrication.] I've spent much of the last two years getting threats from them so severe that the FBI was involved. [Evidence? Quote from FBI agent? Letter from the FBI? Quoting something that you told someone is not a source. -10 for lack of documentation. And -10 for fabrication.]

The Alt-Right rarely mentions deregulation, and they don't talk much about lowering taxes. Rather, it's a [This a is unneeded. -2] conservative activism on the Internet that goes to extremes to oppose diversity. The Alt-Right is more comfortable on Reddit and 4chan than in church. They communicate in memes, and see white supremacy and rape jokes as ironic. [Examples? Sources? -10] The more off-limit a joke, the better. Their political views aren't doctrinaire conservative.

Many are against globalization, and most feel the American system isn't working for them anymore. [Survey results showing what most member of the alt-right believe? -10] They have intense anger at the press, feeling misrepresented and misunderstood. [Source? Examples? -10]

For the public, the most recognizable shock troops of the Alt-Right has come ["troops ... has come"? s-v disagreement. -5 points] in the form of Gamergate, the hate group still targeting women that advocate for inclusion in the tech industry. Throughout 2014 and 2015, Gamergate became infamous for sending women death threats, rape threats, and extreme intimidation. I was one of these women, being driven from my home after receiving death threats that stated, "Your dead, mutilated corpse would be on the front page of Jezebel." These threats were so severe, they used them in a Law and Orderepisode based on Gamergate. [Totally inadequate documentation and sourcing for this section. -20]

Though the public moved on from the story, the targeted harassment continues to this day. [Source? -10] The playbook of the Alt-Right uses the same tactics levied [Grossly illiterate use of this word. You mean leveled. -20][Even with the correct word, sentence is awkward. -5] against Hillary Clinton for the past 30 years. The idea is to throw enough accusations at a target until they're [A target is not a "they." -5] mired in controversy and their reputation suffers. [Mixed metaphor. -10] It's the "politics of personal destruction," weaponized [Bizarre usage. -5] against people that [Should be who. -5] aren't public figures.

Crap, I give up. I'm barely half-way through this illiterate, irrational, biased abortion and Flynt/Wu's grade as a piece submitted for a sophomore journalism class already stands at minus 292 percent.

He would never have earned a journalism degree at Ole Miss if he'd stayed on campus for 30 years.

Wu has finally "succeeded" (given up) at being a game dev with the release of Rev60. She's most likely going to try and drop the whole issue down a memory hole now, and move on to her "Journalism" career. Thanks to the Clinton campaign, the term "Alt-Right" has entered mainstream usage in a way that Gamergate never did. Of course Wu is going to start using that as her boogyman. If there's anything Wu is consistent about, it's jumping on a bandwagon if it will serve her interests.

Why must she use Twitter for everything?

Because it's literally the only place that Wu can deceive herself into believing that she has any amount of significance whatsoever.
