This shit is the reason I spent
far too much time covering Brianna Wu.
Any
sane person looks at this shit, and thinks to themselves: "
Wow, this is the fucking stupidest person I've seen seeking e-fame in years." But where
we see someone worthy of mockery, and most normal people see Wu as a freakish twitter psychopath with delusions of grandeur, there are
dozens of insane assholes who Wu is helping prop up.
Whether it's acting as
a living talking point for shithead opportunists like anti-anonymity advocate Ari Ezra Waldman (who Wu is an IRL acquaintance of), or my personal favorite - Wu
being a primary talking point CON used as an example of their success to the point where it features on their fucking Wikipedia page (which of course
Wu wasn't, but let's not let facts get in the way
now), Wu has a surprisingly big coterie of morons who are eager to promote her, and that serves our purposes just fine.
That Wu is a bloodthirsty opportunist and laughably incompetent at the same time does not surprise most on the Farms. What never ceases to both amuse and horrify many, however, is that no matter how fucking horrible her actions get, whether it's something as gauche as the
Crash Incident to something as widely-known as
her Steam false-flags, to fucking
THIS goddamned thing, we never seem to reach the bottom of the barrel with Brianna Wu, and that's why she's such a hilarious train-wreck from start to finish.
It's one thing to be a sensationalizing self-obsessed asshat with delusions of grandeur, but it's quite another to have all of that
and Wu's small army of thugs, orbiters, and beta male allies to fuck with by proxy as well. Every time an incident like the
Trans Samus Incident or
Moon Rocks Incident happens, the internet laughs its collective asses off and Wu's army of supporters has to engage in the most ridiculous mental gymnastics possible. It's great.
