GamerGate Critic Brianna Wu To Run For Congress (cnn.com)

"If you look at what our Congress is doing for tech, it's failing. It's putting all of us in danger," game developer Brianna Wu told CNN, adding "It's so imperative that people of my generation, native to technology, that we step up and make our voices known." An anonymous reader quotes CNN's report: Wu says she is running for Congress in 2018. The co-founder and head of development at games firm Giant Spacekat hasn't announced which district she wants to represent in the U.S. House of Representatives to prevent alerting her potential opponent while she prepares. Wu, a Massachusetts Democrat, told CNNMoney she's building up a team of advisers and figuring out campaign logistics before announcing her candidacy next month... She said the election of President-elect Donald Trump spurred her to consider entering politics...
Wu "says her extensive technical knowledge and experience fighting the alt-right and harassment and will be advantageous for a Congressional representative."

Seriously who modded this massive grab bag of completely unverified claims up? It's kind of sad and telling about the attitude here that this gets modded up but linking to things Trump actually posted, verified, on his own Twitter account gets modded down.

I fully expect to be modbombed for this, but as the saying here goes, mod me down, I've got karma to burn.
