    Back in the GG days I was following various anti-woke sources/creators (read kotakuinaction, watched JP, shoe, Chris ray gun, etc.). Since then I’ve obviously left that whole sphere (I mainly attribute this to innuendo studios tbh), but it’s interesting to see that Brianna Wu has made just everyone dislike her. I hope she sees the light someday, because honestly it feels pretty weird to still be disliking one of the people GG attacked.

    Edit: other notable figures in my radicalization are Hasan and second thought, and my wife and I have had a bit of a radicalizing feedback loop. Then I discovered lemmy during the API thing, found out about hexbear because of everyone talking about how scary it is, and choosing to check it out myself and finding it incredible based.

      I’ll be honest, I watched thunderf00t for like two videos making fun of solar panel roads because they’re dumb, then I saw the anti feminist stuff and thought, hey this guy’s a tool.

      At this point I really dont think Brianna Wu has it in her to see any kind of light, shes just genuinely a craven social climber.

      She was cozying up to transvestigators and posting some deranged shit accusing Brittney Griner of having a voice in the hertz range of literal subwoofers.

        Also claiming that she was spitballing hertz values from listening to one audio clip because she has “10 years of piano practice” which means that her brain automatically translates pitch to hertz.

        If anything I would hope for her to just transition into posting more shit like this, she might end up at pre-president Trump tier posting if she keeps this up.

      To me, Lemmy was always this rocker dude hanging out at the Rainbow Room looking for cocaine. Sounds like he now hosts an online place where leftists make libs feel unsafe?
