Brianna Wu / John Flynt - DEAGLE NATION STILL LIVES

[RomanesEuntDomus]

Guess he really was a backer. A shame that he's so patient as to give Brianna another month, but nice to see that he potentially has the power to drive Brianna into a corner she can't slip out of.

I assume he knows no matter how much time he'll give her, she'll never be ableto release the game (and is generally unwilling to). So he can be generous, give her a couple of weeks and then go full assault and still come off as a nice guy who gave Wu ample time to do something.
Don't think of this time as inactivity. Think of it as preparation for a running start.

"To my black friends" who I've chosen to live nowhere near. Wu appears to be another ally of the black community that doesn't want to live anywhere near black people. Arlington is 2.3% black.

Wow so this is how she comes out! I wonder how many evil "cishet BernieBro gamergators" are gonn call her out on her pretending to be a cis woman in the past

It's not her coming out. This is her allowing other tran.swomen into the divine sisterhood that she experiences every day as a totally-legit-biological woman. I'll give you this much, the wording is vague enough to go either way but I'm sure if you pressed Wu on it (and she didn't just insta-block you) she'd tell you that she didn't mean for that sort of interpretation.

> To my trans sisters ...
Wu is virtue signaling like a lighthouse here, but apparently doesn't give a fuck about trans men? If this isn't a just slip up (which it probably is), no matter how hard she will drop hints, no halfway important news outlet will come her way and ask her the Pokemon question.

Tran.smen don't really exist or are seen as some kind of sick traitor by trannies like Brianna who have an unrealistic, fetishized idea of femininity. Most of them seem baffled that a woman would ever want to be a man because it conflicts with their fantasy.

How does she even have followers left? I've never seen a more blatant psychopath.

Because she's an important member of the inner circlejerk of video game feminism.
And I'm pretty sure she buys followers.

The Kickstarter guy has likely considered his money thrown down a well, is pissed, and is using the GethN7 method of being the magnanimous nice guy so no one can say later they weren't more than fair with someone they have every right to be mad at.

And he holds all the cards anyway, since he doesn't have what he paid for and Wu has no good reason not to deliver, and he already tore down the walls of Wu's excuses, so all he has to do is wait for Wu to:

(A) Capitulate, release game.
(B) Wu stonewalls further, looks like bigger asshole and proves him right.
(C) Wu refunds the money.

All three options are lose-lose for Johnny.

it'll prob hit 10,000 before that abortion slops out...

 

[Solzhenitsyn]

Don't forgot that Wu is heavily detached from her family, has no friends to speak of from her life as John, and is so horribly toxic that she couldn't actually make any real friends. Frank is the only thing she has left. And he knows that

Wow so this is how she comes out! I wonder how many evil "cishet BernieBro gamergators" are gonn call her out on her pretending to be a cis woman in the past

This is John, so it's likely unintentional, but to my mind the way he's handled the "WU IS A TRANNY" meme is probably the smartest thing he's done. By not openly sperging about people calling him a tranny, even while irrefutable evidence can be found with a Google search, it gets around that he's mtf, thus earning him valuable minority points among the left (I believe there was a left-wing article posted a while back where the author openly calls Wu a tranny), while still allowing him to maintain his illusion that he's a true and honest womyn.

Buying seems likely but I think they're just people who never bothered to unfollow due to having so many people followed they can't be assed to clean up. It's likely they mentally block her considering her pathetic retweet/reply/like numbers.

Also, happy 900 everyone.

In the middle of a wasteland, far far away, lies a little town. It only houses about fifty people, but it's clean, it's close to water and the volcanic soil is suitable for harvest. But that's not what makes this place so special.

In the centre of town screams a horrifying being with a disfigured human head attracted to a disjointed mess of metal, cables and bolts vaguely resembling a human body. Every so often, it repeatedly screams in a high-pitched and loud voice as if the insides of its throat were nails on a chalkboard. Most locals know better than to get close. The ones that don't haven't been seen for a long time.

One day, an old and wary traveller decides to have a pint in a make-shift bar a few blocks away from the centre. As the entire town is waken up yet again by horrible screams, the traveller vaguely recognizes the screams as speech in a language from a long time ago. The bartender hands him a piece of paper and a pen and with great patience and careful listening, he's finally able to decipher the screams that alluded the locals for so long.

"REVOLUTION 60 WILL BE COMING OUT SOON"

"WE JUST NEED TO FIX SOME SOUND ISSUES"

About that...

According to TweetAudit, most of her followers are legit, but the overpowering majority of them are holdovers from the GG era.

Her Follower score is very telling, indicating a very low follower value (as in, many of these followers are low-post-counters).

This is a significant drop from earlier so it's very possible she did, in fact, do a buy-in to garner additional followers. Active ones don't count as fake from TweetAudit, so this could explain a bit.

Edit: Happy 1900, Brianna!

Are you nuts? It's glorious. With every passing day, Wu shifts into obscurity and the onlything that could ever keep her relevant is a game she can't release cause it'll be an atom bomb on her already hilarious (lack of a) career.

Granted, I'd love to see it hit steam and be torn apart, but Wu won't do that unless she really really has to - say, as a last ditch effort to milk it for "Goobergate raped my dog and insulted my game!"

The only thing Wu's inactivity serves is making her lose all relevance and divorce her abortion of a game even further from what a current game should look like and offer.

This is John, so it's likely unintentional, but to my mind the way he's handled the "WU IS A TRANNY" meme is probably the smartest thing he's done. By not openly sperging about people calling him a tranny, even while irrefutable evidence can be found with a Google search, it gets around that he's mtf, thus earning him valuable minority points among the left (I believe there was a left-wing article posted a while back where the author openly calls Wu a tranny), while still allowing him to maintain his illusion that he's a true and honest womyn.

If it was just aout John/Brianna's gender, I wouldn't give a damn, really, but when he invents bullshit stories about how he was treated as teenage girl despite being part of the single most privileged group his silly possé can identif, it becomes annoying.

So, when Brianna is eventually forced to either cancel or release the game in a buggy, unfinished state because everyone with actual technical ability already left the company, how do you think polygon/kotaku will defend Wu?
For both situations.

She's just going to ignore, like she always does when someone brings up R60. For now. Really the best case scenario is that someone boosts the shut out of this, to the point where Wu can't ignore it. I mean on Reddit, Twitter, other blogging sites, etc. until this poses a threat for her she'll just ignore like every other R60 complaint.

Somehow blame it on white cishet males, gamergate and be done with it. Or they'll just ignore it as if it never existed, since it's not content they can easily use to milk adrevenue by making clickbait articles.
That is, of course, arguing that Kotaku is going to still be around...

The fucking condescension.

I never thought it was humanly possible to do this much virtue signalling.
That Twitter backlash must have really pushed his shit in!

John HATES men (who aren't black/have no money) and fetishizes the concept of being female. He, along with the rest of the SJW circlejerk think they're "gender traitors" and utterly despise them.
