Brianna Wu / John Flynt - Original Thread

SJW Top Trumps anyone? The stats on each card could include things like "Hours spent whining on Twitter each day" and "Oppression points".

But then they'd all go apeshit on you for giving the panoramic magigirl less points than the pink-haired demigodkin.

What I love most about the Feminist Deck is that it's not going to be a trading card game or for playing any game with. It's instead going to try to promote them and their works as these leading feminist figures.
So 90% of those cards are going to look like this:

Spoiler: I am an artistic adult

That is, of course if the project actually gets funded and this Smith-Pearson girl doesn't pocket the cash and run off.

The saddest and most hilarious part?

"Originally, #feministdeck
was going to be a game, but a few
people brought up concerns that it
would trivialize something
traumatic."

Lol. Also, if you make a kiwi farms trading card deck can we include bubble gum? Because hipsters love nostalgia.

This feminist deck, even if it's stupid, could be good if the artist wasn't shit. Seriously, look at Randi Harper and Zoe Quinn

Where's the pug nose? The fat necks? The fetal alcohol syndrome spaced too far apart eyes? It really is a vanity scam, where someone says, "I'll draw a kind of sort of representation of you looking super cute, because in real life you're super not. Pimp out my kickstarter so you can see yourself!"

 

[Andy27]

Not an actual deck, since they won't have suits or numbers. It's more card sized artwork.

So it will cost a shitload of money and you won't be able to use it in the way you are supposed to use it? Yes, I can see why Brianna Wu is in it.

 

[LegoTugboat]

If you check her other Kickstarter, you'll find some more artwork, including Moviebob.

Those lip piercings... I think I found the lost sibling they have in common

Clearly looker of the three.

Also goddamn I wish I could get money for NOTHING like that. I'd actually need it.

If there's a Kiwi card game, I want my card to be a replacement card for any card, but only once.

I'd like to see if she can go outside of her "style". Not many of her "portraits" look like any of the people they're supposed to, but just generic representations and minimal effort. It makes me a bit angry, but it'll make me happy when some of these people turn on her or completely go ape when being outed as frauds. (In the SJW community, because that's all that matters, right?) It'll be her legacy to be a supporter of con-artists listed right on her CV or Artists Statement.

 

[AnOminous]

The first obvious response is who gives a flying fuck?

The second is you fucking PAY for AppleCare you dumb bitch. It's an extended warranty plan that you BUY. What about "if you pay for it it isn't free" don't you get?

That is like fucking Kengle-tier tweeting. Next he'll be telling us about balancing his checkbook.

I wonder what Brianna would think about a woman in tech who is running for President? Would she support her because (note that I do not recall the exact quote here) "women in the tech field need to build each other up," or would she oppose her because she's taking some shitlord-y positions and, as she is no longer in the tech field, her previous statements about women/patriarchy/etc no longer apply? One of my favorite things about Wu is just how wrong she is about how the world works, so I'd love to see her try to bullshit public policy and things like that.

Sorry if a bit offtopic, but what really made me scratch my head is the fact that on this person's website you have to scroll down several pages before learning about her political opinions. It is all "blablabla tech career blablabla business blablabla successful..." before you learn a little bit about her political agenda (conservative). Protip: When I decide whether to vote for a candidate or not, I want to know about his/her political positions, opinions and agenda, not about his/her business career.

Goddamn it, it's a feminist card deck featuring really shitty feminists. They're not honoring people like Susan B Anthony, Nellie Bly, Grace Hopper, Ada Lovelace, Sandra Day O'Connor, Jane Addams, Marie Curie, or really any women who did something other than whine on Twitter. It's a fucking circle jerk.

its fucking yu gi oh but now you can do jokes about "triggered" trap cards

 

[XYZpdq]

I'm going to go for the shitlord-y positions, though it is probably more important that she presided over HP going from a tech leader to a real shit operation. What the fuck has HP done worth mentioning lately?

They sponsored that ride at Epcot that kills people.

I'm far from being considered a feminist but I give credit where its due. It bothers me that none of these asshats give any credit to Kathleen Hanna, a true modern day feminist. Most likely because they know Kathleen would waste no time in calling them out on their shit.

 

[wheat pasta]

Wow, that artist should be embarrassed to be churning out crap that looks like that. I'm probably not talented enough to do art for a deck of cards either, but good god, has she no shame? Those portraits are really lame and flat-looking.
