If it's not satire it's just a video of a grinning retard.

Remember that woman who was brutally dad-joked on camera a few months ago? She's back! With four lovingly produced videos of 110% pure, weapons-grade, spine-shattering cringe. She only wants $1000 in return!

"But wots this got 2 do w/gameragrate! :O "

I'm glad you asked! ;3 This is where we segue back to JMACC. Yoshi's Youcaring page has already raised over $800! Much of it from cheeky buggers who just wanted to make naughty jokes in the comments section, but it's already blown our flagging whitey mcwhiteboy's measly Patreon out of the water! o_o

GIVE JMACC HIS STRAIGHT WHITE CIS MALE PRIVILEGE YOU FUCKS (・`W´・)

WHITE BROSKI > BROWN YOSHI

*CRUCIAL DANGER UPDATE*

Heil to the patriarchs! Yoshi's Youcaring page got nuked for inciting bullying. :cool: Not only that, but shitlords and their internally oppressed thralls have raised $80k and counting for Hugh "The Face of Fear" Mungus and his medical/automobile troubles! :O

Now... I shouldn't need to say this but although Hugh is indeed MALE he is also a bit on the dark side. And that shit is Juanita money! So JMACC is still being denied his white privilege. What are you doing to help? :[

Imagine if there wasn't a backlash against SJWs. He would have probably gotten in trouble for being called an harasser and then he would have had to deal with cancer on top of it.

Maybe it's time to get noted engineer, game developer and investigative journalist Brianna Wu on the case, although it sounds like she'll soon be off on another excellent adventure. ;3

Admittedly, I was an avowed (and still proud!) follower of Wu's arch-nemesis The Commander (headphones warning). Maybe I like being fooled. :wink:

Game developer Brianna Wu, who spoke out against harassment of women in the gaming industry, will run for Congress in 2018, Venture Beat reported.

Wu, a Democrat, hasn't officially announced her run, but said she is setting up a team of advisers.

She posted a photo on her Facebook page that resembles a campaign poster with the words: "Brianna Wu for Congress."

Below, the image says: "She fought the alt-right and won. Now she's fighting for all of us. Fearless leadership for 2018."

Wu came to prominence in 2014 after speaking out in support of women in the video game industry and against "Gamergate" — a controversy about sexism in the gaming community.

Wu blasted Gamergate advocates for "fighting an apocalyptic future where women are 8 percent of programmers and not 3 percent."

She said she received about 180 death threats during the controversy and was driven from her home.

Wu told Venture Beat she will focus on the economy.

“Here in Massachusetts, taxpayers spend an amazing amount on subsidizing education – particularly with infrastructure. But then students and entrepreneurs take that investment by our state to San Francisco or Austin,” she said.

“I think we can do a much better job keeping startups here in our state. Also, look at the game industry, which has been devastated here in Boston with the loss of Irrational and others."

Wu said she hopes to serve on the House technology subcommittee.

"It was very disturbing to me to see members of the House tie the Mirai botnet (malware that hijacks computers) to the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA), simply parroting special interests," she said.

"It’s an example of how our tech policy doesn’t serve the American people. We need people making policy that actually understand technology, that understand the assault on our privacy. It’s a national security issue, and we’re failing badly.”

She also said she decided to run is because President-elect Donald Trump is "terrifyingly now in the White House."

"I can’t sit by making pleasant video game distractions for the next four years while the constitution is under assault," she said.

"Hillary [Clinton] ran a brave marathon, and now it’s time for women of my generation to pick up that baton and commit to public service.”

edit: WAIT A SEC :shock: ag, some quick questions. Have you blown $500,000 and counting of other people's money on various failed vanity projects over the last decade or so? Have you failed out of multiple universities while fraudulently claiming to hold degrees in the relevant disciplines? Have you ever left a pet outside to die of exposure in the Massachusetts winter? If the answer to all these is no... you might just be more qualified for the job!

Only one catch I'm afraid. You'll simply never hack it in 2018 as a dang, dirty white male. We can fix that though, if you've got the guts and the cash... Image

I haven't been in this thread for a while, so I haven't seen any of the recent updates for probably the past few pages.

I just wanted to come in here blind and make a guess you guys are talking about Brianna Wu running for Congress? :P

I was right!

He/She's the gift that keeps on giving. Just when you thought He/She couldn't top His/Her performance on "The Internet Ruined My Life".

My friend saw that, and was like "they made Gamergate out to be some serial killer shit. That woman was..."...and I was like "that's a tranny, dude". He's like "What?!".
It was a great conversation.

The SJWs of the 21st century abandoned a horrible weapon on Twitter.

That mistake has returned to haunt Massachusetts in the form of Senator Wu.

"What is #Gamergate?
#GamerGate" is an online movement ostensibly concerned with ethics in game journalism and with protecting the "gamer" identity.

"Ostensibly"?

Even regarded generously, Gamergate isn't much more than a tone-deaf rabble of angry obsessives with a misguided understanding of journalistic ethics. But there are a lot of reasons not to regard the movement generously."

New interview!
I've gotten pretty far in my career by speaking my mind. I'll bring that approach to Washington. More upfront, direct, unapologetic about LGBT issues and the economy. I think people respond to honesty.

Yes, sorry. Also death threats, obviously - millions of them. Image

Ahh, a schadenfreude tinderbox. One spark of enquiry and the whole charade goes up like the Hindenburg.

"Ms. Wu, when exactly did you receive your degree from-"

"REEEEEEE! GILBERTGOTTFRIEDGATE IS ATTACKING ME YET AGAIN"

I can only imagine she's angling for a dramatic reveal of the truth ("Who would've guessed?!") and parlay into trans rights advocacy. That's what I'd do to stay on the good ol' GGravy train. Probably some good victimbux to be milked there yet! The alternative of a serious run at the senate and the scrutiny that'd invite is abject insanity by even BatWu's standards.

Maybe she's counting on charity and/or stupidity to see things through. Fuck this is good tv. Image

Twas in jest, I'd wager. Dry, concise and lacking in vitriol - only the most terminally aggrieved nutters sally forth for BatWu, and their jagged, brittle barbs are dripping with the stuff. :wink:

Hell, even leading paragons of internet virtue are perturbed by the snarling ghoul they've unleashed in Autonomous Social Justice Weapon Brianna Wu (see earlier post) :o Beware, the beast ravens for your guilt and your cash - and only the forgotten arts of USMC Parkour and Massachusetts Street Racing seem capable of driving it back.

That and the cleansing sunlight of journalistic exposure, but the fiend has an uncanny way of anticipating such attempts and scuttling off into the night well in advance. Which is why I suspect this political adventure is in fact a calculated self-immolation... gurning towards narrative oblivion, with one twitching compound eye on a renewed source of infamy and those sweet victimbux all the while.

The internet is "ablaze". JonTron was on a Sargon stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyFXpXVZ8ho

I'm not really into his humor, but this is great for the "resistance".

He's getting a lot of grief, but I don't think it will affect him too much in the end. Pretty brave of him. I hate using that word. :lol:
