Dramacow Arthur Racian Chu / arthur_affect - From Jeopardy Winner to Angriest Man on Twitter

[proteus4994]

Most of the reviews I've read and the couple minutes of footage I've seen make him look like a self-righteous asshole and pretty much a degenerate on top of that.

That's because he is absolutely both of those things, but I guarantee he watches the same footage and sees an Internet crusader who's going to save the world from the alt-right menace.

This is cognitive dissonance.

Say what you like about Kiwis, but most of us can watch that documentary and identify the positive acts the film highlights. We might agree or view them with disdain or impotently rage, but we aren't wearing horse blinders.

Chu and his ilk cannot even admit someone might take a negative interpretation of his actions. Because...I don't know, maybe Scientology will tell everyone they know that they are really fags or something.

Was there anything good, though? I haven't seen the vast majority of it.

About the only good thing I've ever said about Chu was his Jeopardy strategy was reasonably good and it was idiotic to hate him just for that, like it's somehow against the bullshit "spirit" of a game show to try to win and use actual strategy to do it.

Hell, I'm just going off the film's trailer and assuming that inspirational music was keyed to dramatic Chu moments of win.

Maybe they only play it in the movie when Arthur finally takes a shower.

Is there a painless way to archive this thread (including images)? It is comedy gold.

Yes, I'm being an idiot today. Thank you for asking.

Those tweets look fake enough to get suckers to believe he's been trolled.

A good documentary really doesn't take a position, it simply lays out how things are and lets the viewer come to his own conclusion, so I think it's like @Next Task said, they went in just deciding to see who this guy who won a bunch of Jeopardy was, and it turned out that his life fell apart at the same time, so they just documented it. I think it's very likely he watches it and sees himself portrayed positively, whereas you or I might watch it and think he comes off as a complete asshole.

Most of the reviews I've read and the couple minutes of footage I've seen make him look like a self-righteous asshole and pretty much a degenerate on top of that.

You could tell they went in to make a story about this quarky little quizboy "who played hardball on a game show and got him a little notoriety, but look how clever he is!" and when they finally spent time around him, he was such an asshole that they couldn't really work around it.

 

[Sissy Galvez]

It’s clear Achu doesn’t give a shit about how he treats people in his life. He only cares about himself and his social justice crusade.

 

[Trombonista]

I wonder if his clique will see how he treated his wife and call him out. I’m guessing probably not.

Does he even have a clique at this point?

Jesse Singal on Arthur Chu:

Check out Jeopardy Guy's feed -- I got tipped off he was mad about a SJ controversy and he has been ranting about it on Twitter for at *least* seven straight hours. I say this as someone with my own obsessive tendencies and Twitter addiction, but HOW IS THIS HEALTHY???

2/ I know that from the average point of view I am Too Online but if you EVER see me spend seven hours on the same subject on Twitter please just like SWAT me or something

It's spread out along a whole bunch of threads that Chu has tweeted, but he's been in an argument over whether a 19th-century woman who posed as a man in order to become a doctor was transgender or not.

This stupid nontroversy’s been raging for several days now. The trannies and their chasers are reeeeeing about it non-stop.

It’s really gross to make everyone trans who can’t answer for themselves. There’s ZERO proof Margaret Ann Bulkley was a tranny.

Also, A-Chu responds to Jesse with a really bad tweet trying to shame him.

He let his marriage fall apart over social justice shit and twitter. A-Chu is so pathetic his parents are disgusted with his obsession with twitter and social justice. At least Jesse Singa is a journalist who’s actually published.

This isn't even his only rant. He's been going at it for hours.

It's like they do not comprehend that there were heavy incentives for some women in the 19th century (and before that) to disguise themselves as men in order to be able to attain goals that would otherwise have been outside their reach. Actually, they definitely do not understand:

Chu has a name for this, he calls it mindkill. He literally outlined how whenever a thought comes in to his head that might challenge his point of view, he goes into this autistic mantra overdrive mentally yelling at that thought until it is drowned out.

I never finished my psych degree before switching to more practical fields but I will straight up unflinchingly say that based on "Mindkill" alone, Arthur Chu is a delusional sociopath.

Sounds like a schizophrenic yelling at his voices.

 

[Deven]

Yeah, you dumb troon. One single person is pretty much as far from "most" as you could get. Nice debunking.

Cow cross-over with Jake Alley:

Holy shit, that second-to-last one.

He wants media with transitioning in it so it can encourage random kids to troon out.

There are not enough toilets in this state to contain the amount of shit-spewing horror I am feeling right now.

 

[Emperor Julian]

Frankly I can see the appeal of pretending to be a man in a society where you're 2nd class citizen. This seems a weak premise.

Funny how it's mainly Bombchu and Jake who are always talking about all this porn. I wonder why they know so much about tranny porn.

Or more to the point, where you specifically want to be a doctor, and you can't because women aren't allowed even to go to the schools where you learn to be one.

You know why.
