As is so often the case with GamerGate, I woke up this morning to a huge happening that I had no idea was going to occur the night before. Shit just seems to come out of nowhere more often than not, and in a lot of ways, it’s what makes this ride so thrilling. Today was no exception, as I was told there would be a debate between Hotwheels Fredrick Brennan, Arthur Chu, Psycho Lady from WAM, and Brooke, the young female gamer from the Al Jazeera interview. Things are shaping up, I thought to myself.

Then, I was given the link to the debate. I found out that it was a live chat, not an audio, or video debate. At first this took the wind out of my sails a little bit. But, I was wrong to feel that way. The debate turned out to be an epic beatdown of Arthur Chu, and I loved every minute of it. He even fled the battlefield at one point. Although, credit where credit is due, he did return. It didn’t matter, though. It was Hotwheels, Brooke, and last minute mystery guest David Auerbach, who dominated the proceedings. At least Chu has a lot of experience with getting his ass kicked. Maybe it wasn’t as rough on him as it would be you or me.

(Unfortunately, they didn’t.)

Brooke made several killer points throughout this interview. I can attest to her based nature myself. She was great, even in a biased video. I’d seen her before on Twitter, but didn’t make the connection. Hotwheels dropped that knowledge on me earlier today. And yes, please come on the show, Brooke! Consider this an invitation lol.

Let’s talk about the Psycho From WAM (Deanna Zandt), which I changed to the Idiot From WAM during the course of this debate. She spent the entire time shitposting memes, and generally making a mockery of the proceedings. She acted like a petulant child, and make even Arthur Chu look somewhat upstanding, at least when compared to this odious woman. When you look into her background, it’s not surprising. She’s an Anita Sarkeesian bootlicker, and loves to spread misinformation about GamerGate (these screens were given to me by Mr. Fart/FartToContinue):

This fruitcake is such a loon, that she really should have her own column. The only problem is, no one knows who the nutter is. So, I have to just stick it all in this recap. Oh yes, here’s the bootlicking:

I guess it’s also not very surprising that a person like this would also be part of the Listen and Believe chorus defending the UVA rape hoax? The true “believers” just will not listen to logic, or reason:

deanna4OK, enough about the WAM psycho. I just wanted to share some of her insanity with you all. Back to the actual debate…The wrecking crew of David Auerbach and Hotwheels did so much damage to Chu, is was unreal. Just when I think the hapless Chu cannot take a worse beating, he proves me wrong. What is his rock bottom? How much further can he degrade himself through public displays of stupidity? I’m not sure, but I know that I’m looking forward to finding out:

Like I said earlier, Chu did come back. I have to note that. Not that it mattered, because he picked up right where he left off, being the one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest. He showed up with a knife to a gunfight. He got whipped like a government mule. You get the picture:

He did throw in a huge lie later on, which only made him look worse. Good job, Arthur:

It only got worse from there. Chu went off on a tangent about anonymity, and again got his pseudo-intellectual ass handed to him by Brennan. It might not have been the best idea to try and debate anon with the owner of 8chan, but Arthur thought it was.

Just one more miscalculation, in a day full of them for Arthur Chu. It was pretty special seeing him bite the curb like this, I must say. The people that booked his babbling fool of a partner did him no favors, let’s be honest. We also have to give the dirty bastard credit for having the guts to meet our people in an open forum. The same cannot be said for people like Zoe Quinn, Leigh Alexander, Ben Kuchera, Ian Miles Cheong, etc. At least Chu has the guts to take his beating. Getting your head kicked in probably does get tiring. So kudos, Arthur, and thank you for the entertainment today.

 

UPDATE: Arthur Chu got his ass whipped, but of course he has the perfect excuse. He doesn’t even care about stupid GamerGate, you guys! This, despite the fact that he’s based a huge part of his professional career around it, tweets about it all day everyday, and even told his users he was done with GamerGate…only to return back to it like a crackhead. The truth is, he cares, and he cares a lot. Which is good, because I love seeing him get his ass kicked. Keep up the good work, Arthur.
