"I want you to consider what it’s like to be Brianna Wu." ​



No comment.



"The constant harassment of Gamergate has become a part of my life that no one seems to really care about anymore. Last week, I was doxed to more than 15,000 people. There’s no press, it’s a just a normal part of being a woman in a field I used to love. It’s affected my happiness and my health deeply." ​



If you're so affected by it all then maybe quit? I don't know, seems reasonable to me. Also, nobody cares about you anymore because you alienated EVER PERSON that ever was an ally to you. All that is left are people that dislike and want to get a rise out of you, and the only person at fault for that is you. Brianna Wu is the source of all that is bad in the life of Brianna Wu.



"I need to tell you, what’s currently damage me just as much is people that supposedly have my same values insisting I agree with them on everything, and harassing me if I don’t. While your letter isn’t harassment, it’s part of this demand for ideological purity that is tremendously draining to me. Two weeks ago, I said something vaguely positive about capitalism while simultaneously critiquing it, and was bullied for two days left by a rabid leftist mob.." ​



If your supposed allies stab you in the back then they are either not your allies or have had enough of you. In both cases they don't like you. Think about that for a minute or two...



"This kind of mob punishment of anyone deemed ideologically impure isn’t a good trait for the right, and it’s not good for the left." ​

"I’m not a rebel indie dev living off crowdfunded support, or an academic producing feminist media. I’m a businesswoman that secures capital and pays people money to produce creative content. That may not be your dream, but it’s mine - and we deeply need women like me building companies and working to improve these institutions." ​



Yes you are lol. That is just a simple fact.

Yes you are lol. That is just a simple fact. Your previous venture was a failure. Your game sold for shit, you don't have any other things on the backburner and you next 'project', which is the same game, is so far behind schedule that (if it ever comes out at all) nobody will care about it. Your studio probably has no employees left either. I don't think "women" like you are that desperately needed.

"I have fought tooth and nail inside these institutions, in battles that really only cost me career, sanity and access. I can point to many direct policy changes I helped shape. These are things I am positioned to do that other feminists can’t - because they don’t work here." ​



Please, do point. And again, if it affects you that much, quit.



"But today, I worked a 12 hour day, and I’m getting a second email from you demanding a response to a sin you perceive." ​



Every day you tweet from the time you wake up to the time you fall asleep. You tweet and retweet so much that getting any serious work done appears next to impossible. And put the cross back on Jesus' shoulder will you?



"From my perspective, I was having a private conversation with a friend, and you and demanding I atone for that opinion." ​



It's fecking twitter. If you want a private conversation write an email. You don't have to smear your huge ego all over the internet, you chose to do it. Don't you dare call people out that take notice of you.



"I was homeless after my parents disowned me. I’ve never finished college actually, because with three classes left, they left me without any ability to eat, bathe or clothe myself. I was living out of my car for over a month." ​



You wrote that after the images of the emails hit the web. I wonder what you would've written if nobody ever cared to check the records. Your personal sob-story does not make any difference at all. A lot of people had it way worse than you supposedly did. Toughen up, buttercup.



"I do not belong to you."



Thank god.
