I think it's less that and more, 'it's okay when I do it because I'm *~enlightented~* and *~progressive~*, not like those white cis male scumbags'.

Or maybe she's playing some kind of game where she deliberately makes the women as hideous as possible, and then dresses them in skimpy sexualized outfits to make some kind of statement about oversexualization and the treatment of women...but I think I'm giving her a little too much credit by saying that.

You're quite right. She has mentioned numerous times how 'smartly designed' her characters are, and I think she genuinely believes these characters she created will be remembered as giants in the medium.

She's danced around the subject in interviews before, and I wonder if some little part of her dim lizard brain realizes she's spewing doublethink nonsense. Its really irritating to hear her prattle on and on about how great her game is going to be and then to act like Samus is perpetuating rape culture just because she has breasts and a butt.
 
Sorry if this is posted before, but I found her Tumblr site.

Meanwhile, on Twitter, Wu is blaming GamerGate for the death of her dog (lol), if your definition of causing the death of her dog is tweeting her about this. There's quite some tweets about this but I think this one is enough.

Could this be the first murder committed by Gamergate supporters? According to her logic, that's going to be the case. Can somebody retrieve and save the dog? That poor animal deserves a better way to end his/her life.

Maybe get off your phone, turn off your computer, and run the dog to the vet?

Wu: SHUT UP! STOP MANSPLAINING ME! TWITTER WILL HEAL MY DOG!
 
Letting the work speak for itself is such an unfamiliar concept, isn't it? I mean, if you're compelled to divert funds from a new game towards a potential tort, I can't imagine the game would benefit from that lack of resources, or if that defensiveness is woven into its creative DNA.
 
lol, c'mon people, do you think she's in the middle of performing surgery on the dog herself? Whether she's taken him to the vet and is waiting on a response, or whether she's monitoring him at home for signs of improvement/decline, that leads to a lot of empty minutes to be dicking around your phone. Let's face it, if your dog was potentially dying and you were waiting on word of it's status, you'd want to distract yourself whatever way worked best as well.

I get that she's a raging fuckwit and it's shitty to be blaming her internet enemies on her dog dying, but let's not act like Discussion Forums a-logs, where every single thing she does or says is wrong and evil, and what Hitler did was potatoes.
 
For those asking about ages and power words, Brianna Wu (AKA John Walker Flynt) appears to be somewhere between 32-35. This is based off a number of things:

  • When Wu was 20, she received 200k from her parents to start an "animation company".
    Screen Shot 2014-12-01 at 12.18.05 PM.png
  • However, according to her own Wikipedia page, she was given that money at the age of 19 when she failed out of her first try at college.
    Screen Shot 2014-12-01 at 12.39.03 PM.png
  • The company Socially Unconscious Productions, was founded in 1999 under the JWF moniker. This would be the same name used for the failed animation short that Brianna attempted to make with the $200k.
    • (There is talk (including myself) from people shit flinging that she used that money for her sex reassignment surgery but the time lines don't add up)
  • A website for Socially Unconscious Productions was live as of 2003 via The Wayback Machine that includes a script for the Socially Unconscious Radio Drama. From this page, we learn that
    • Socially Unconscious debuted as a four panel comic strip at the Daily Mississippian in the summer of 1998. Gaining popularity, it was soon syndicated to 11 newspapers. The funds to turn it into a movie soon followed and the SOCCON team spent 2 years and $150,000. The sequel, called Election Eve has been optioned as a novel.

      While developing the script for the movie 13 alternate scripts were written, with different adventures for the characters. I want to produce one of them as a radio drama, following with more if the project is a success.
  • The Socially Unconscious website also makes mention to "electioneve.com", where something similar had been originally hosted. Interestingly...
    • "CONTACT JOHN W. FLYNT AT h.662.236.9897, or c.662.801.4166, THE VOICE ACTING STUDIO IS IN MY APARTMENT AT 2000 LEXINGTON POINTE DRIVE, APT 14I. Just behind Applebees (sp?). " (from electoneve.com)
    • John W. Flynt wants people to take the WHAT CHARACTER ARE YOU test, which ties to Electioneve.com (via googlecache quizilla)

  • According to the spacekatgal livejournal listing from before she was married, she went by the name "Brianna Flynt".
  • John Flynt was thanked in the minutes of a meeting held at Ole Miss in 2006 for "discussing the facts behind Transsexualism this week. Anyone who has question can email him at jwflynt@electioneve.com"
  • Lastly, publicrecords.com has for the only Brianna Wu listing
    Screen Shot 2014-12-01 at 12.52.31 PM.png
In conclusion, I believe Brianna Wu is also John Walker Flynt, creator of failed animation/comic/radio drama Socially Unconscious and Election Eve, and that if she was 19-20 in 1999 when this company was founded, she would be somewhere between 32-35 years of age now.

I get that. What takes this from a tragic case of a beloved pet dying to full-blown ridiculous is when Wu somehow decides that Gamergate is literally responsible for Canine Meningitis. Somehow.

And that, my good Dynastia, is fairly lulzy, IMHO.

Also, can we take this as an occasion when the "buy a dog" meme was subverted?

The Flynn/Flynt character hasn't been around for a while, but he was from D.C. and became Brianna. He was weird as shit before the sex change.
