Over time, businesses are slowly waking up to the fact that someone’s high Twitter or Instagram follower count doesn’t correlate well to actual sales. Maybe a hardcore fan following but not the SJW crowd which has never rewarded a business for going woke yet. She has been given more chances than she deserves but now they have her poor sales of her existing comics to see that a tiny percentage of her 125,000+ Twitter followers bought a $5 comic book, especially someone who gets responses of “ok murderer” anytime she tweets.

The only reason Zoe "got a following" was gamergate. Supporting her was a way of "Owning the Incels" who were going overboard because she cheated on her BF. As long as no one chimps out and does something supremely gentlemanly, people/publishers will realize that's all she had going for her.

After Chelsea proxy-murdered Alec and slinked back to Twitter from hiding, she talked about how much she wanted to do more work in comics. Yet she has been completely silent on the comics front, other than trying to pimp her failed books for some comic award.

Chelsea's only "value" to comics was her alternative marketing channel of social media followers. I guarantee you this is what was pitched when she got books, how she would draw in new readers because she has a horde of thirsty social media followers who will do whatever she says. As we know, this isn't true at all:
- She has remarkably apathetic interaction from her following, often getting a few hundred likes from her 125k followers on "look at me!!!" posts
- Despite her en masse blocking efforts, she's still gets some OK Murderer responses because people fucking hate her
- The type of person that follows her doesn't buy, they virtue signal
- Every book she did sold at the nominal rate expected, with no visible gain from her "influence"

Comics are desperately looking for new readers and giving low risk "prove it" deals to people who may bring in new audience makes sense. But they're going to expect results.

She did two appearances at comic stores in LA for her brand new Goddess Mode property that was widely pimped by her buddies in blog media along with her supposedly important social media. According to FB, they drew single digit attendance. Everyone's local bars draw way more people for their trivia nights than Queen Chelsea can draw for a personal appearance in LA for a brand new, publicized project. Yikes.

Chelsea now not only has a body count working against her, but direct evidence her "influence" is nil outside of being a useful idiot for SJW Twitter.

One of the more interesting things about Zoe's career path is that for the most part it's been her fellow slacktivists giving her jobs where she basically can get paid for doing nothing. At best she's been hired as a consultant but you'll note that for the most part she's not actually expected to do anything, and that is by far the most humorous aspect to covering her.

She's not got a lot of measurable talents; there's never a point where you can say she gives something unique or important to a project that only she can give, or even perspective she uniquely has. Moreover, she has a history of abandoning projects and tends to jump ship at the first sign of hardship, pawning the project off on other people. So why do people hire her?

For Twitter cred. She's the queen bitch of a relatively rabid clique, and it looks good to give her projects to the other slacktivists. But those won't last forever, and then she's likely going full Lot Lizard.

I bet she's the type to ruin the orgasm by getting out of the way at the last second, nevermind spitting.

I bet it's her butt that scares off an orgasm. Whenever she farts, her butt flaps like a horse that makes that flappy sigh.

Also, a thousand burgers.

I am proud I was never fooled by this cunt and even when I was still almost a proto-SJW myself I convinced everyone I knew at the beginning of Gamergate that whatever you might think of GG, this cunt is an obvious scam artist and you're a fool if you support her. By the usual broken staircase rule, they never did realize GG was more right than wrong, and some were still pissed at me even after realizing I had been completely right about Zoe Quinn herself, but I did knock out at least a minor tranche of support for this horrid cunt.

There's an old saying in home repair that goes like this: Just because you can't see a problem doesn't mean it isn't there.
The same can be said of Quinn. She had a following of supporters long before not only GG, but before her own scandal that led to GG broke.

Long before any of us knew who she was, or had any reason to care, she was palling around (and fucking) members of the indie game circuit and their buddies in the press, working with groups like Feminist Frequency, who, coincidentally, many of the indie press groups were openly financially supporting. She didn't even try to hide it, you can find photos of her hanging out with Phil Fish and Anita from like 2010. She was big in the bay area progressive sphere, had fucked more people in the indie dev circuit than Steam instituting refund policies, and was getting her buddies to shill her shit for months before her breakup scandal ever fucking happened, like that time Alex Lifschitz accidentally his career on her behalf. Groups like Indiecade have the exact same problems the Hugo Awards do, which is that the people currently controlling them use it solely to promote their friends and ideological allies. That's how Quinn got through IGF in the first place (that and fucking her boss).

As Autistic as GG was, what started it all wasn't Quinn herself; it was the ongoing efforts to bury any attempt to cover Quinn's scandal, which we can prove was done because Quinn herself was tied to all these different communities she'd spread like Chlamydia through. The breaking point was the GJP leaks, which showed that not only were they financially supporting Quinn (and Anita), and that several had (or were currently) fucking her, but had gone nuclear to bury any attempt to cover the story. That was the event that made shit hit critical mass, because it was blatant quid pro quo and open corruption (and incompetence) on a fucking legendary scale. And, geniuses that they were, they made no effort to hide any of it.

Irony is, if Quinn had owned up to her fuck-up early on, apologized, and said she wanted to handle things like an adult in court with Eron, the scandal probably never would have hit the penetration it did, and we wouldn't have had anything like the Autism Holy War for another year or two.

GG was literally nothing. It was just a single niche subculture telling SJWs "no."

Just being told "no" about their autistic bullshit was enough trauma they have yet to get over it. And the fact that other subcultures continue to tell these cunts "no" is, to them, a continuation of "GamerGate," even though it's really just a continuation of humans who have had it with their shit.

I've always played with the theory the gaming press threw her and anita under the bus by making it about their 'defence' of them rather than defending their actions and stances.

Yea but, the funny thing is, a bunch of gamer autists saying "no" was apparently the first time anyone did say "no". And many of them, are still around, some (looking at Mundane Fat) cling to relevancy, and other are troding along business as usual to this day.

That absolutely was the case. These people have no honor or balls to own up to anything they do and wanted to use these stronk whammens as a shield, which is even more pathetic.

Nah, it wasn't the first big time anyone told them "no," (Atheism+ was probably the best documented of those) nor was it the most successful (heavy metal community would be the winner here). However, it was the moment when they threw literally everything at those telling them "no" and still lost.

They pulled out every stop, pulled in every favor owed to them by every single sped who believed in the cause, used every dirty trick they could think up, every insult, did everything up to and including using government resources and even the UN to fight the evil scourge of autistic gamer speds.

All that, and they still failed.

There's a lot to support that theory.
