Brianna Wu

Never known anything but I have seen the name. So I've skimmed her Wikipedia just now. So she was harassed during GamerGate. Is Pro-Israel and claims the left is letting down their Jewish allies. Had a few congressional bids.

Oh, I see her with something with Cenk and Rebellion PAC. Not gonna lie, I gave up on Cenk ages ago and it seems things haven't gotten much better for him (especially lately with him and Ana apparently attacking the left?).

I've probably skimmed too fast but what specifically are you referring to? I see she didn't get a full degree from the University of Mississippi.

There's also a Dead Domain video, that goes into great detail of her other shenanigans, like lying about being a cis woman.

I mean in an age of overt transphobia, I can't fault someone for hiding the fact. I do hate when people weaponize their own identity to attack others in the queer community

A while back on Lemmy, someone mentioned Hassan Piker. I finally got around to looking him up, today. What a wild read! Apparently he's Cenk's nephew.
