You know, John was always an irrelevant moron, but this has to be the most irrelevant and moronic he's ever been in his life.

So how much did John bitch and moan to get them to have his shit "featured", and how likely is it that it will be one of their little side events and not something like AGDQ or SGDQ it gets relegated to?

A decent amount, and 100%, because he already tagged the Frame Fatales account in his tweet, that being GDQ's "female"-exclusive event. It's less the Super Bowl and more a WNBA exhibition game (setting aside the fact that there really isn't a Super Bowl of speedrunning, despite John's insistence otherwise). Three guesses how many speedrunners at this event are women and how many are just men in dresses.
Also, if your lifelong dream is to semi-competently play a less well-known port of an already not very popular game in a very specific manner in a public setting, then frankly that's just sad. One hopes John is just exaggerating for "comedic" effect, but he might be legitimately that retarded.

Isn't GDQ just a celebration of cockless males anyway? John will fit right in.

I know nothing of GamerGate, but, I know that if all the journos lost their contact in Twitter, did John lose his? If so could you post that picture of him side to side with his before and after?
Also curious as to why John lost his checkmark but Keffals has not. Both are irrelevant trannies who've contributed nothing.

What massive lawsuits would anyone be able to bring against Tesla because Elon Musk did not step down as CEO of Twitter?
I don't even want to attempt to figure out what he's trying to say here.

The United States != NATO.
NATO is the United States, but having to play mother-may-I with Eurocucks.
John used the wrong formula but still got the right answer.

This isn't going to end how you think it's going to end, Lucas. Once the agency clears them, they're going to back them up to the fullest extant.

This FrameFatales claims to be an "all women" speed running community.
Out of morbid curiosity I took a look at some of the event photos on the site and it seems like it's mostly troons, creepy looking dudes with below average upper body strength, and few heavy-set women.
I mean... Pretty much what I expected.

It's really hilarious when you sit down and think about it for a few minutes.
Video games have always been predominantly a male hobby, at least when it comes to core games and you don't fudge the numbers by including moms playing Facebook games in your stats (hi, ESA!). Speedrunning is a very autistic hobby, and men are 4-5x more likely than women to be diagnosed with autism. Thus, speedrunning is dominated by men, as to be expected, and this was reflected in who participated in GDQ events: the occasional girl, but overwhelmingly men.
In recent years, there has also been a significant increase in autists trooning out. Due to the existing autism/speedrunning overlap, this means that a fair number of speedrunners have trooned out. Despite this, there's still a lot of men who run games at the main GDQ events, so staff creates the Frame Fatales event to increase female representation in speedrunning. But of course, they're ideologically forced to not deny troons' gender identity, so they have to let troons participate or else they'll be called transphobic bigots and screeched out of the organization.
And that's how you end up with a female-only event that ends up featuring predominantly men.

It's also an incredibly small event, not "the super bowl" of speedrunning events like Jon is trying to imply. The channel GDQ actually has a bunch of shows/smaller events outside of the main "Done Quick" events. And credit where it's due, those 2 events are pretty big deals and garner a big audience. The other stuff, including the event Wu is at? Not so much. I don't know how desperate they are to fill time, but it's not a great sign if they're accepted super niche categories like Wu's.
But the funny thing is, none of that is necessarily bad. Niche run categories can be pretty fun, and smaller events don't automatically equal bad or anything. The issue is John's ego can't settle for "fun" and he has to be a prestigious expert attending the superbowl of speedrunning as the number one runner in the universe.
