Uh, exsqueeze you Phil, stunning and brave engineer Brianna Wu said it was INARGUABLE. Maybe you should stop mansplaining. Er... astrophysicistsplaining.

That's because there's literally nothing of any importance there. There is nothing on the Moon that we don't already have down here, because it was probably just a big chunk of the Earth that got broken off billions of years ago anyway.

If there was oil, you could bet your ass Putin would find oppressed russian minorities to liberate or the USA would find a despot to dethrone.

But all joking aside, I think it's more a lack of prospecting than a lack of resources. When you start looking hard enough, I wouldn't be surprised if you'd eventually find gold, copper, platinum or whatever. After all, that stuff came to earth via asteroid, so it stands to reason that there's also some places on the moon that offers this stuff.
What does not, however, stand to reason is Wu's idea of Elon Musk ruining everybody's day by fucking with GPS satellites or throwing rocks at us. If they wanted to fuck with satellites, why bother going to the moon, first?

Brianna should help us understand other of her space concerns. Such as The Borg and Space Herpes.

Nah, we've got a pretty good idea what the crust of the moon contains. None of it's particularly rare or worth mining except to use on the moon. Lots of aluminum, iron, magnesium, and titanium.

A bit of extra 'lolwut' here, because really the Moon is potentially strategically important, but not for military reasons. There's a lot of helium-3 on the Moon, and mining it in the future might become economical. Military bases on the moon are a moot point anyway due to a variety of treaties made during the Cold War regarding the de-militarization of space. Besides, if I was going to locate a military installation in space, I'd probably pick a Lagrange point instead of the Moon or direct orbit with a planet. The position might be known, and the station will orbit around the point, but it's at least far enough out into space that attacking it from the planet or another celestial body becomes more difficult, and it can sort of be a staging area to intercept things en-route to earth.

tl;dr Wu's a retard.

You know what is irrefutably strategically important? Eating. The. Hat.

I am posting in this thread, given recent events, to explain why ever since Revolution 60 bombed, I decided to cease talking about Brianna Wu awhile back and am now going to resume doing so.

One, I had gotten tired of talking about this deceitful hack, and two, I felt I had accomplished my goal, which was discrediting a con artist who promised a lot and could not deliver, and they did, delivering a steaming turd despite years of empty boasting.

I felt my job was done and the only place this incompetent liar could go was down, and with this attempt to play politician, despite my prayers maybe a little humility from their previous failure had occurred to them, Brianna Wu has proven even more stunningly incompetent than when they tried to play game developer.

This moon rock stuff is all the reassurance I will ever need, now and forevermore, that John Walker Flynt is content to remain ignorant while playing at genius, and to my regret, they will likely never change.

While I confess I still hold a lot of contempt for this notorious braggart and liar, I have decided to leave my feelings at the feet of a higher authority, but that does not mean I can't sit on the sidelines and continue to shake my head at the continued stupidity of someone who is too foolish to learn from their mistakes.

And I'm grateful I'm here with you all to pass the popcorn while I do so.

We're in for such a wild ride these next few months. These kinds of epic meltdowns will be a common occurrence.

A combination of factors is at play here.

1. Johns absolute inability to apologise, back down or realise when he's wrong and that he can't be right all the time; essentially that he is an egomaniac and all round asshole.
2. Massive increase in interactions (that cannot be pre-screened) with the general public due to running for office. i.e. people that will not dance around John being a grade A cunt .
3. The fact that John has a crippling case of Dunning Kruger and will happily blast total nonsense out to whoever might hear it.
4. Paper thin skin that causes John to get triggered at any perceived slight.

I did not think that he could top the Rev 60 debacle, but like the legendary cow he is, John has come up with the goods yet again.

To give Wu credit, I'm sure he used "drop" in the way you "drop" a nuke. He spoke of propulsion earlier, so I don't think he meant you could walk to the edge of the moon and drop a rock. It's the difference between a dumb thing a six year old might say and a dumb thing a twelve year old might say. Small, but significant.

"Brianna Wu" still going strong on Twitter, several posts a minute. It's no longer trending in the sidebar, though, so perhaps he has just enough backchannel left to fix that.

Can't even win a Twitter argument of your own making?

How are you going to defeat man of the people Stephen Lynch if he even deigns to notice your flailing idiocy?

As for the trending listing, going trending meant nobody was discussing the Flu to begin with, then a significant increase in individual accounts discussing just that was noticed and now the increase in numbers has subsided and not continued to grow as time passes. So not even moonsplaining failures can make John relevant for longer than half a day now on that platform.

I am pleased at this sign for humanities future.

I was wondering why the thread had gained so many pages all of a sudden. Turns out all Wu had to do to be relevant again was be an egotistical moron.
