Brianna Wu / John Walker Flynt - "Biggest Victim of Gamergate," Failed Game Developer, Failed Congressional Candidate

[ZKWNordman]

Frank made her sell the car she wrecked(or was it all the cars she wrecked) so she could get the latest toy. The old porsche had a hard to replace stereo. How gross!

Blocked for questioning the superiority of manual transmission. Brianna’s block finger is itching. She wants so badly to share new porsche pics on Twitter but maybe even she’s aware the BernieCrats will notice that she bought a six figure car while paying her only staffer like $2/hour.

I really hate that my luxury car won’t allow me to connect my smart phone to the stereo! The fucking horror of it all. How could I, Brianna Wu Tech Feministzilla, dare to drive such a thing in public?? Does Porsche know who I am? Fucking google it!

Now let me tell you how progressive I am, down with capitalism!!

Nobody in Massachusetts thinks that Massachusetts=Boston, asshole. Way to insult the vast majority of people who live in the state.

Boston also isn't "an area of the state." It's a fucking city.

And nobody in the world thinks that everyone in the city of Boston is rich.

That tweet needs to be framed for stupidity. She sounds fucking high.

“I’m running for office and need to study up only District. Oh an episode of cheers featuring Dr. Crane! That guy is the reason for why housing costs more in this dense city than in the far less populated state of Mississippi! Also I don’t hang out with poor people because they’re gross.” - Brianna, probably.

We need to protect our cities from moon rocks, we need domes and shield generators. We need sea walls for the kaiju!

Man he’s a fucking nimrod.

A friend running for office had an interview with a union last week to see if they'd support my friend's race. The union was asking my friend's opinion about a few different primaries in the state: Pressley and Capuano, and the like. Then they asked "Stephen Lynch or Brianna Wu?" and laughed and said "Just kidding."

Kiwifarms doesn't need to feel special anymore: she's a joke everywhere.

These two posts were reported for it. SMS' post is a bit more than StL's, but just a friendly reminder to not go too far off topic, lest it turn into A&H.

More like Donald Trump inherited a bunch of money and then got memed to victory because he was running against possibly the worst presidential candidate ever. Like Barry Goldwater tiers of unelectability.
He's down there in that tier himself, but he's juuussssttt better than Clinton.

Donald Trump built himself a business empire which led to him becoming the leader of the most powerful nation in the world. John Flynt built himself an artificial vagina which led to him becoming the sugar baby of a screaming autistic Chinaman.

ETA: This as well.

Trump turned a million dollars into over a billion dollars. That's like taking a thousand dollars and turning it into a million. You might not like him but going from a millionaire to a billionaire is not something he simply inherited.

Wu took $200,000+ and turned it into 0$ literally the opposite of Trump.

It’s nice to see that there are sane people in MA-8 seeing through John’s bullshit. The tech communities in California and Seattle are apparently too stupid or blinded by the snake oil filmflam man named Brianna Wu.

Power leveling, but I do side gigs editing content for politician's websites. This crap is what I get 10 out of 10 times from first time politicians who have never ran for anything, aren't very good writers, only have a vague list of the things they should have a platform about, and have never analyzed anyone else's platform statement. As much as I wish that were a dig at Wu, it takes a specific kind of nerd to sit around analyzing politician's platform statements to decide what's effective, and those of us who do things like that probably lack the social skills to be elected to anything. I rewrite it to make it readable, concise, informative, relatable, and include at least one specific action item that the person would actually be able to do in their elected position.

This crap is amateur hour written by someone who has never run for anything, isn't a good writer, has no idea what she should have a platform about, has done no research into platforms, and has no friends or contacts or real consultants (sorry, Warren) to tell her what the fuck to do. It's a fucking mess, and if I got it from a 28 year old who didn't finish high school running for dog catcher in Lynn, I would swear at it and bitch a little before getting down to work to fix it. From a supposed "journalist"? A career that's about research and writing? Running for national office? It's not redeemable.

Spoiler: Spoiler because literally every sentence in every platform item needs a rewrite, so I didn't get far.

FFS, never say "probably" in a platform. This is your PLATFORM, not something you're hedging your bets about. You can not hedge your bets in a platform: if you're wishy washy about any topic, it's as simple as not writing a platform statement about it. Also it really doesn't matter what other people are doing in your platform: what are YOU going to do?

Oh. This is what she thinks she's going to do. But anyone who knows enough about politics to seek out her platform statement is asking: What leadership? I thought we were electing her to Congress, where she'll be a junior Representative, and need to work WITH people, not lead them. Does she think she's running for president? (rhetorical question: the answer is clearly yes). How does she think she is going to lead these investment programs?




Is this her platform statement, or an opponent's snarky radio ad? What the fuck dumbass politician wants to write "I want to spend billions..."? Yes it will take billions, but don't write that out! "I want to invest in research and infrastructure to protect the thriving coastal communities of district 8 from the rapidly worsening effects of Global Warming." Look, I made it a local issue, too.



Do you remember your high school English teacher telling you to stand in front of a mirror and read your paper out loud? It's to prevent grammatical abominations like the first sentence. Literally nobody literate proof read this shit. Nothing, on the other hand, can help the hubris and idiocy of the last sentence in that paragraph.



This sounded WAY better in her head.



Nobody cares about creating upper class jobs. Delete that shit. The average person has no idea what the rest of this is saying, and there is no explanation. What is F/OSS? What is "encryption"? The average elderly voter thinks that encryption has something to do with credit card fraud and doesn't understand why she's saying that Congress wants to criminalize it. This is a fucking mess.



Don't use words that you don't know the meaning of, Brianna. A systemic issue is a problem issue: you're saying that Social Security is good. And where the fuck do student loans, defense spending, and single payer healthcare come into Social Security? And what the fuck do they have to do with inflation?

I can't go on. There is literally not a redeemable sentence in this pile of shit.

This platform is throwing shit on the walls and hoping that something will stick.

In that last item in the spoiler section, I think Flynt/Wu knows the meaning of waver. That he spells it waiver is not surprising from this spectacularly semiliterate canidate who claims to have years of many years of experience as a professional journalist. The clock is now running on how long it takes Frank to read these posts and fix his Rent-a-Tranny's elementary-school blunder.

Someone with an innocuous twitter account needs to @ him with “congrats on your new Porsche! How are you liking it?” just to see how it’s handled.

Someone with an innocuous twitter account needs to @ him with “congrats on your new Porsche! How are you liking it?” just to see how it’s handled.

Also, maybe was mentioned when she first did it, but I noticed she has this tweet pinned:

Wow, she really DOES believe her campaign is a success and not only that, but should be a model for other democrat campaigns! She wasn't kidding herself when she thought she should write that book on running for public office.... Also @Snowflake Buster I think you can just lock the "Days since mentioning Gamergate" count at 0 so long as that tweet is pinned.

EDIT: The Article ( WARNING: Fullscreen Giant Troon )

It’s terrifying, right? The thing Gamergate taught me is that there’s nothing I can’t handle. What is someone going to do: Call me ugly? Threaten to kill me? I already deal with all of that on a daily basis.

lol gamergate.

I look at my own party, and I see that we’ve taken this technocratic, academic, elitist liberal class philosophy as far as it can go, and we got our butts kicked — and I don’t know what else to do other than get involved myself.

So... the problem wasn't being "technocratic elitist liberal class philosophers", it's that they weren't as good at it as YOU?

Her Top 5 Things to Disassemble:
1. NES system
2. Nerf Rival Apollo
3. 2009 Mac Pro
4. Honda 600cc motorcycle
5. Glock 34 pistol

Jesus Christ.... can we talk about this article for a second??

I had two separate calls with the White House, and they were telling me they had some ideas they were putting together to address Gamergate without needing to go through Congress, and nothing came of it.

Obama had Wu on speed dial! Why don't I ever hear about this? You think she'd be sperging every day " I worked directly with the whitehouse on policy issues blah blah Gamergate blah blah?" or did she already forget this lie?

And not going through congress? What was the white house gonna do? Have the CIA challenge Jace to a motorcycle race? Winner take girl and bike! Tokyo Drift!

In college, you volunteered for Senator Trent Lott, a Republican. What has changed for you since then? I still quite enjoy watching Fox News because I think it makes me think through my arguments and make sure I’m on the right side. I can’t think of any Republican policy I would agree with off the top of my head, but I do think that a sense of personal agency about your choices is good, in general.

Uh oh! Given that it's public record who volunteered, I think Bri just dead-named himself on admission to being John there...

DELET THIS

How about the part about a District 8 town wracked by the opioid crisis, could that have any basis in reality?

Spoiler: She’s writing a longer review later

Here are the technical details on my build: Carmine red All leather interior and deletion of all alcantara, which is terrible. Aluminum interior pieces Manual gearbox Torque Vectoring Porsche Connect with Bose Entry and Drive Bi-Xenon Headlights PASM Suspension Lane change assist 18-way sports seats Guards Red seat belts and instrument panel And a few more odds and ends like light design package that were thrown in for free.
Basically, this is the maxed out version of the Cayman, except for ceramic brakes. I watched the entirety of the Porsche “Good to know” videos after ordering, and I’m glad I did. I wouldn’t have gotten Entry and a drive if I hadn’t known it added external sensors for the trunk, trunk and doors.
Overall, it’s a huge upgrade from the base 981. The biggest issue I had with the older version was the absence of torque. At the same time, I wouldn’t say this is overflowing with torque. The PDK I demoed had far more immediate power on demand than my manual. In time, I will learn how to find it - generally it’s one gear down from where I am expecting. But the manual is still a gearbox you will have to finesse to drive at the limit.
Everything about this car is a better than the 981. The seats are better, the PCM is much, much better, the manual gearbox is smooth as butter. The lights are shockingly brighter, giving a near-daylight level of illumination to backroads twisties.
This is a much safer car to drive than the 981. The backup camera is good, on par with everything else in the industry. The forward parking sensors aren’t great. I wish I had a camera to augment the front sensors, because they aren’t entirely consistent in sensing and indicating distance. The Lane Change assistant is a must have. I love that your phone gets locked in the center compartment and forces you to use voice for everything.
The car drives in a surgically precise matter, drastically sharper than my 981. This is good and bad, as a few millimeters of mistake while steering aggressively through corners causes it to veer off the road. I’ll adapt to it, but wow - this car will go where you tell it.
I felt my Torque Vectoring kick in once, and it was bizarre and awesome. I was really pushing through a corner, and underestimated it. Then I felt the rear of the car magically slide and lock back on course. It felt like cheating, but I can really see it saving you when you mess up.
As far as the sound: It’s great. I freaking love it. It’s loud, aggressive and dangerous - constantly asking you to push towards the red line. My SO loves it too, saying it’s the best part of the car. As best as I can tell from videos, the GTS has a different sound than the S version. It’s a weird, visceral mix between low grumbling tones and high tones. I remain convinced that the “outrage” about the sound is much ado about nothing. I strongly prefer this sound to the 981, though I can imagine the low tones damaging your hearing with a lot of highway driving, which are still prominent even in normal mode.
Idling in sports plus mode, you can hear the engine from a block away. It really is loud from the outside. I deliberately put it back in normal mode when driving down my street to be polite to the neighbors.
I think Guards Red looks like a kindergarten color, and the Carmine Red is much better. The striking color is my favorite part about it, but it’s definitely STILL lighter in real life than it is in photos. Also, my door handles are jet black to activate the space on the side of the car, but the air intakes are a matte black. If I reordered it, I would pay for jet black ducts so it matched.
I really like Porsche Entry and Drive, but the front is a little quirky with detecting your hand to automatically pop the trunk. You have to hover it about half an inch over the surface and hold it for a second. The rear is instant and simple. Overall, this is an excellent option.
The 18-way seats are expensive, but if this is a daily driver I would strongly suggest. It really is much more comfortable. Having driven the alcantara version of the GTS, I strongly suggest skipping it - leather feels much much better. The brushed aluminum trip pieces are a massive upgrade over the plastic, but I wish I’d gotten them in black. I’m a little disappointed that even with the brushed aluminum, the notched gear diagram on the shifter is still plastic. This is the part of the car you touch the most, and it still feels cheap.
I also would skip the red instrument dials if I respeced this car. It looks great in pictures, but it makes the tachometer and manual speedometer harder to read at a glance. Not a dealbreaker, but it gets in the way.
Overall, this is an amazing car, and I’m dead certain I made the right choice. In my opinion, the next version of the Cayman/Boxster will be electric in 5 years or so. That makes this the ultimate version of the last era of the gasoline cars. Since there’s no point in an electric car having a clutch, I am betting these are highly sought by connoisseurs in 20 years.
I think for my generation, the Boxster/Cayman is what the 911 is for the generation older than me. The 986 was THE car when I was a teenager, and I genuinely prefer the look and feel of this car over any 911 past the mid 90s. The 911 has gotten too big, and when I’ve driven one it feels like I’m wearing a fat suit. I know the 911 specs are superior, but to me? This is the ultimate daily driver Porsche.
TLDR: I feel great about this car, and feel like I made the right call or most of the options. Still unsold on PASM and Torque Vectoring. The knashing and wailing about the sound of the engine is ridiculous.

Glad that backup camera works. Can’t have any more 23 year old GamerGater concrete poles jump in front of the back of her car.

The Wu's are living the life of a thousandaire. Driving a $90k car while renting a $100k house.

For the price of the down payment Frank put on his husband's car they could have put a down payment on a house similar to the one they are renting. I don't know about District 8 in MA but where I live they could have gotten a typical starter home, 1/4 acre 3 bedroom/1 bath house, at auction/foreclosure for the price of that car. Frank is like in his 50s and John is 40 and they would rather buy a car that John will park outside and ruin in a few months instead of buying a house and building some equity.

Just shows that Frank and his husband are both idiots with poor decision making skills and no ability to properly manage Frank's money. I wonder if John told Frank that line about the car being "an investment that will be highly sought by collector's in 20 years" or if Frank is just a tard and bought the car without needing any convincing. That car will be worth nothing in a couple months when John totals it, tries to "upgrade" it or otherwise destroys it and send it to the memory hole with the TT, the dogs and his other discarded toys.

Since it's close to Boston, that house is probably in the $300-400k range, which is easily attainable when you are banking what Frank is. Otherwise, yes you are absolute right on all points.
